The only way they can get out of the hole is to throw huge money at some key players and then hope they stick around for a 3-4 year plan to get some success. Will need to use all of their available points to get even close to matching with any side as next year I think the top 2-3 may be a class above but any of the other sides besides Hamley could push for finals berth.

No different than any other club really.
Attracting players, keeping players and keeping match payments under control is all part of running a successful club. You also need to recruiting mates of mates and get numbers in. Develop the senior colts as much as you can.
Other similar clubs like Two Wells, Untied have done this for years.

Neither of those clubs have ultimately bottomed out to the extent Hamley Bridge did. If any club lost all 21 of its A grade side, odds are they'd have struggled to that extent too. Rebuilding from getting belted by 40 goals every week, while having half the junior numbers of other larger clubs, is a massive task. The club's committee was also a bit gun-shy regarding player payments following the epic collapse in 2015, which was understandable.

My opinion wrote:What happened to the previous coach it seems they go through coaches every two years how can they become competitive if they can’t keep the man in charge no player would entertain the thought of playing for them if the have no structure... will it be another 0/16 season? What players are moving on?

Couldn't have that coach keep going, gets too angry t the players busting their arses, better suited to a more seasoned group. Not sure his record warranted another season at the helm, for either party.

It's positive they've locked in a replacement already.
