Yes, very true. The atmosphere and excitement at their game yesterday was reminiscent of our cup tie with Leeds in terms of passion from the home fans ( without the malevolent tension).
My long time Bolton supporting mate always said the journey up the leagues is the best time supporting your club, he wasn’t wrong.
They need to concentrate on the league.They are playing a lot of games.They picked up a few injuries yesterday.
They are indeed both actors, but they have hired a group of people who not only know what they're doing, but are also people that they can trust. Even after ten years or more, Vincent Tan doesn't have that.
That said, I think they will reach a point at which serious cash is required (as someone else said - look at Salford, or Forest Green even), and that's when they might baulk at paying out more of their own. That would be the time to get someone else on board. If they go up this season, they'd be well placed to go up again, but then things might start to slow down.
They've hired people like Shaun Harvey who did a great job at Leeds . Their CEO is from Burton. Mathew Benham has spent his life developing money ball. He even tested it on a club in Denmark first. Wrexham have thrown millions at this and have a half decent side but it isn't the same thing. It isn't data driven, ground breaking stuff. It is just well thought out and sensible, unlike us. Wrexham have a ceiling.
They don’t have the money for a Premier League team. Probably don’t have the money to support a competitive Championship team.
I imagine they'll get further than the likes of Salford/Forest Green as unlike those two they are a proper club. If you haul yourselves to the Championship then who knows? You're one promotion away from the Premier League. It is also the point where the wheels can come off though
In terms of size, comparing them to us is ridiculous and I imagine most Wrexham fans would acknowledge that.
They don't have a history at Football League level, don't really have a fanbase large enough to sustain a League 1 club and are based in a town of 5,000.
Wrexham spent 87 years in the Football League, have proven themselves to have a decent fanbase even in non-league and have the catchment area to sustain a League 1 club or higher
Not a proper club is a little harsh on Forest Green, but Wrexham are a different level of club
I’m very defensive of FGR, as having played against them several times, they represent a success story that so many amateur footballers aspire to & wish for. I’ve witnessed their efforts & climb first hand and they deserve to be where they are. Nothing taken for granted & every step earned.
Absolutely not, but if you are welsh and from north wales you should be supportive of Wrexham
Not sure I really get this ‘love in’ with Wrexham?
Why would we (CCFC) want them to be successful?
