If you think the wages up here are daft look at Faversham Town, SCEFL club in Kent (step 5) They have an admitted budget of £10k per week for players and are top but have sacked the manager. Sometimes words just fail me. Link below for story kentishfootball.co.uk/news/favershamtown020124

Yeah, top of the league as well.
Same as Bridgwater was it? They sacked their manager in third I think.
I've noticed in comparison to years before there's much more down south at step 5/6. Thatcham Town were on a decent amount in 2018 when they won the Vase and rumours Ascot United were on a nice wage too.

Do any clubs in the north east at that level pay 10k a week in wages these days?

That’s absolutely ridiculous, clearly someone with big pockets who has a big ego and wants a day out at Wembley.
When spenny were in the league I’d heard rumours (haven’t got a clue if they were true or not) , that they had a wage bill of £5k, which I thought was ridiculous at the time, but as they proved they were the best team in the country.
To have a budget double that, you should almost never lose a game and be able to put a squad together worthy of a league at least 2/3 divisions higher.
Again haven’t got a clue what other teams budgets are but I’d guess bishops is about a quarter or a third of that.

For comparison, £10k is about what my step 2 club is paying out I believe but that includes the managers salary so I'm told

I’ll bet my bottom dollar there a 2 teams in the ENL paying half of that, and one of them is Bishop.

Can confirm big money down at Redcar Athletic. Bishops might have a similar budget, but Bishops get the gates to justify it, meanwhile at Redcar, you can be sat on an entire row of empty seats and get told via PA that there's 350 in attendance, apparently.
