Re: 7000 Wrexham To Blackburn
Wrexham looked a very slow & aging team, experience has got them so far but they’ll need a major overhaul soon.

Re: 7000 Wrexham To Blackburn
This team are League 2. It’s credit to them that many may have felt they were favourites tonight, daft that it seems. They are living up to the ‘hype’ though as I expect they will win the league again. That’s some achievement.

Re: 7000 Wrexham To Blackburn
Promotion and throw even more cash at it, despite Rob and Ryan saying the project needs to be sustainable, its not going to be till they reach as far as they can get with Hollywood money

They are decent at home, not great away.

Re: 7000 Wrexham To Blackburn
Why have they’ve put a temporary stand up behind the goal? Aren’t they supposed to be building a proper new one for when they get the PL in 2/3 years time?

Positive publicity, support increases.
I have no affiliation with either club but being Welsh and underdogs, I will be in red cheering supporting in a scouse accent tonight.
:wales:
There is a big difference, in so much as they are the 80th best supported club in the league , and the business model will soon implode and they return to 2,000 crowds.

They’ll never go back to crowds that low again. Not for a long long time anyways. The same way we wouldn’t see our crowds return to what they were if we were to end up back in League 1 or League 2.
Wrexham have won over a new generation of fans that the previous 15 years in the National League couldn’t. People have hope and a reason to take their kids, who will in turn take their children in the future.
Just like our successes between 2006-2014 have attracted new, probably lifelong fans. Compare our crowds from before the 2008 final to after, I’d put money on there being kids at the CCS this season who’s parents were introduced to the club because of that cup run when they were kids themselves.

True , but before Reynolds takeover, their average crowd was still only around 3/4,000 which includes a fairly decent amount of away supporters

Assuming R+R don’t leave tomorrow, it’s almost a certainty Wrexham are in League One next season or the season after (I thought they’d struggle more this season but they’re proving me wrong).
If the duo were to leave when Wrexham were in League One I can still see them drawing crowds of 10k+ for a good few years. If they stagnate or get relegated maybe they’d dip to 7k or 8k but I think for the next few decades that’s the worst they’re looking. Barring an absolute disaster obviously.

Yes , you’re right, and let’s be honest crowds in the bottom 3 divisions have all seen a remarkable improvement in support.
Stockport are getting 10k crowds, ( when I visited there in the old div 4 they were getting 1,800) Notts County had 16,000 earlier in the season for example. Even Scunthorpe are getting larger attendances than when they were in the league.
