The post raises an interesting question about the sustainability of lower league football clubs, though it could benefit from additional context or statistics to support the argument. Overall, it's a relevant and thought-provoking contribution to the community.
About 75% of the national league teams are full time.
Fylde are bankrolled by a sugar daddy and are paying daft wages, helped by a shirt sponsorship deal with another of the owner's companies worth £450,000
Salford's wage bill when they were in the national league was frankly ridiculous - Adam Rooney over four grand a week basic.
