Hopefully clubs in and around the league, will be looking at long term sustainability add which is the best model to follow. I’m sure most would agree with linking numerous kids, reserves & women’s teams with serious links with the 1st team. Plus the club having their own ground with a clubhouse that can bring in extra money. Other streams of revenue like a 4g pitch, that can be used /hired by the community. Developing your ground in conjunction with developing your squad and accepting there’s a limit to how far you can develop the club and be satisfied with that 100%, you have mentioned half a dozen things there, it’s all about spreading things around and having different ways of being sustainable.

Pre season North shields were mentioned on here about money and how they chuck it about. Sure enough here you are. It's sad that this happens to any club but there's lads at that club on ludicrous money who are under contract. What happens there then do they demand there contract payed up. I personally think the club are going under. Wheres the ultras in all of this they are quick enough to make a noise.

And it all started from the arrogance around the ground grading..... How the mighty have fallen.
Shame but hopefully not another club gone into the ashes.

As in many cases its an example of "non" footballing people involving themselves without any sustainable long term plan in a club and throwing money about early doors whilst it suits their own ego's

About time these wasters were kicked out of the league.

This is what happens when you bring in a manager on the sole proviso of him bringing money with him.

Has anyone heard or had any indications as to where the players and management might be heading. I also wonder if any ambitions Northern Alliance League clubs would be interested in helping out? ie ground share at North Shields ground, this would bring in some much needed extra revenue for NS and also could help fast track those clubs ambitions!

The majority will follow the money trail. Hence the predicament N Shields are in.

It’s always strange that business men’s brains go to mush and common sense goes out the window once they become involved in football This is 2nd time shields may have gone bust - both times after chasing the goal of promotion to Northern Premier leagues
The new ground is basic , how it ever passed grading for NL is beyond me
Their committee / board should hang their heads in shame - it’s easy offering players £xxx but there has to be a robust plan to meet these financial obligations
With regards to 4 postponed games -
They should be facing points reduction for each game along with a fine
The cancellations may leave other clubs short - case in point Whitley Bay could have been expecting their largest crowd of the season on Boxing Day - fans and sales of refreshments -
Sad times all round
Maybe players and chairmen need to look at what is sustainable , and realise - the players ARE at this level for a reason
