A few small points.
Nuneaton has a population to support a national league or fl div 2 club.
Although very improbable itโ€™s not impossible as Harrogate and Burton have proved.
Football can change and big gates donโ€™t guarantee success - big money backers and prudent governance can be the major factor.
VOR is right about future planning - but this should be for a 5000 capacity ground that can hold a decent fa cup crowd.
Never say never and setting up to settle for southern premiership central will probably see the club slowly dissolve . Will that level ever entice new fans in large enough numbers to stem the loss of older fans who pass away.
Much of the damage done since 1979 was related to the situation with the ground - Major Park was a dump offering very few opportunities to make money away from gates and match day revenue - Liberty way was poor, I. The wrong area of town and again with no opportunities for extra revenue.
Since the big cup gates of 1967 Boro attendances for run of the mill games have hardly set the world alight bar a few big games .
And the elephant in the room again.
Nuneatonโ€™s club these days seems to be Coventry city - will these people ever abandon that support for national league or even league 2?
The way forward for the new club needs the following:

A ground within the traditional catchment area which can produce income all year round with facilities including a large club house and function room and 4g pitches to provide community use.
A ground that has planning permission for incremental development if and when the need arises.
A complete understanding of why the club collapsed in the last and a means to prevent future chancers getting involved
