It will end in tears. But they will go up, or should go up.

 

[Vatican Citys No.2 Keeper]

Being bankrolled by men with lots of money, so they are buying success

essentially the man city/chelsea of the non-league, only other team with same level of high investment are Croydon Athletic

 

[RM-Taylor]

Don't they have a few ex-Brighton youth teamers?

 

[Husty]

i know very little about the non league ladder, if they go up, what do they go up to?

 

[keaton]

They've been decent for a while but lacked the ground developments to go up. Shame their best player joined Burgess Hill.

Ryman 1 South, where Burgess Hill, YMCA and Worthing currently play

 

[Scotty Mac]

any club that can afford to pay players £400-£600 per game and a league win bonus of £1000-£2000 should be walking that league

I think it's either Level 10 or 11 of the League pyramid system.

The Conference South is Level 6

Croydon Athletic have huge potential, not sure the same can be said of Whitehawk. What size crowd do they get down there?

I think 50-100

Ryman south (which is what they would go up to) is two steps away from conference south.

From what I understand Joe Gatting will be playing for them (if he's not already) and is reported to be on £300 a game with a £100 a goal bonus. Which is crazy money for that level. Allot of the teams at that level don't pay anything.

Crowborough learnt the hard way that money talks at that level.

miniscule

not sure what the owners are predicting in terms of fan base increase, but i can't see them ever getting remotely big crowds until they get MUCH higher up the pyramid

reckon the money men will get bored once they realise there isn't much long term potential

usually around 70

Huge great wage bill of up to £150,000 a year so the rumour has it !!
I know two or three there getting ridiculous money per week !!
I must say though i could think of a few better teams in County League to waste cash on.
But i do know having a bit of cash may buy you success for a season or two maybe but then the cash injection even in the Ryman will have to become more and more and more until it runs out, then the players run out too.

When Brighton move to Falmer, would Whitehawk move to withdean?

 

[BensGrandad]

I heard that Kerry Mayo and Geoff Pitcher are playing for Ringmer, they must be earning a bit.

Geoff Pitcher plays for St Francis Rangers, scored 3 goals at the weekend I think.
