Another 3 seasons at this level would be a sensible compromise, given that once the Planning ball starts to roll, the Town will be relying heavily on the 'Back to Nuneaton' fund to help to meet escalating Planning costs, together with whatever Grant aid they can secure.
I would guess that the current level of income is nearing its maximum & IMO a promotion to Step 8/Level 4 could seriously stress the finances.
Also, a new 10-year lease/agreement to continuing playing at the Oval would be a good arrangement, given that is the minimum requirement required by the Football Foundation to apply for Grants.
The cautious/very prudent approach needs to be maintained & that applecart can very easily be upset, once the financial pressure of furthering Planning aspirations start to bite!
Just my thoughts!
Edit:
I have referred once again to the Oval, because IMO that is the Town's fallback/failsafe position, given that there is no guarantee that Vale View will result in a satisfactory Planning Permission being gained.
