Wasn't Ampthill's early rise through the leagues based on a hand full of Tongans, who also sold cars??
At that time ,we used to know Ampthill as 'Old Tongonians'! I believe that they were promoted to Nat 1 through the play-off system and then picked up following cash injections. The cash will run out when those putting in move on or lose interest.

I think you mean 'the National Leagues' rather than simply 'Nat 1.'. The majority of Nat 1 & 2 Clubs run 3-4 Senior Men's teams, a Women's Team and a full range of MJ's from U5's to U19's but, we are seeing an increase of 'one team' Clubs, who of course are run on the whim/cash of some personal ego/egos and give nothing back to the game. Here again, eventually the cash will run out, leaving no foundations etc!
