This is a club that, apparently, a few seasons ago - were skint - according to some posts I read on here. So how have they attracted these quality players? They're situated - similar to us - at the ar*e end of nowhere. So geographical location goes against them. Have they had a cash boost recently from some source?

Nope, just some savvy recruitment from Simmo (Moxon signed from Annan Athletic, for example) to get the best out of his budget. That, and the fact that we've had a few coming through the ranks (Jack Ellis and Taylor Charters have impressed in particular), and a few lads who've been here for a few seasons (Mellish, Feeney, Armer, Guy) and really grown in that time. I'd imagine that our improving crowds should give us a better playing budget next year, but with the debt hanging over the club we're not in any position to throw cash around.
