Alternatively we could be like Hartlepool. Trying to be positive. :-)
The Darlo quote was merely stating how long term football league teams can struggle or even fall further then one tier down if you are owned by incompetent people. I believe Darlo’s problems began when a former jailbird took them over and had big ideas above the club’s capabilities that involved actually building a brand new ground they could not afford and it all went tits up. The Rushden mention was referring to what happens when the money runs out and the club folds. Don’t forget GP is ripe for redevelopment and it doesn’t have to be anything to do with football either. People who build up debts due to mismanagement often look for another way to recoup their losses with all previous ventures often the victim.
