They will be able to rent the pitch out and make enough money by doing that and continue at their current level.
To be honest I would like to see more Northern League clubs take the plunge and go for it, out of the current crop in there, I can name at least 6 clubs who would prpbably hold there own at Steps 3&4...Spennymoor, W£$t Auckland, Bishop Auckland, Whitley Bay, Ashington and Shildon...I hope Spenny take the plunge if they win the league, Celtic Nation most likely will if they win, as would Bishop...
But the problem comes with having no local teams in the division above, making travel that bit more expensive...Over the last near 18 months I have been critical about the Northern Leagues ambitionless, we want to be home for tea attitude having seen some of the digs we recieved last year, but who am I to preach to people about how to run there club
