The trouble is that when these clubs do fail they've usually cheated several responsibly run clubs out of a promotion place along the line. Margate beat my club and your club in the promotion play-offs two seasons ago by spending ridiculous money. They appointed a manager based 100 miles away and recruited an entire squad of London-based players training at Kidbrooke. Now their benefactor has disappeared and they're on their way back down. The were never anywhere near the top five until the money arrived.

Yesterday Billericay's entire starting XI consisted of players signed since the turn of the year. Their former first choice keeper was on the bench and one other sub has been there since the start of this season, and that's it. They could end up winning the play-offs with an entire team of players who've appeared in less than half their matches. They've completely disfigured the league this season.
