Get your money on Wrexham winning the League 1 title next season.

They have been mighty impressive v Sheff Utd today

I’ll give you odds of 1,000,000/1 

[sedwardsdrfc]

Yes impressive. Wounded if Doncaster rovers ever came up when Reynolds was looking for clubs. Would be exactly what the disgruntled fans want.


3-3 now but it’s striking they play with 2 centre forwards and it causes problems. Hope DS is taking note

[roversdude]

Equaliser

[Campsall rover]

Just testing to see if you’re all awake.  .  . Just changed it.

Yes league 2
Probably League 1 season after.

[Campsall rover]

They were susceptible from crosses and corners.
Hope DS is making notes for next season.

They’d batter us

A club on the way up for sure, had many poor years thou, shows what can happen with money and a owner that seems to love the club

[tyke1962]

 Proper FA cup tie that , blunts very fortunate to get away with a draw in my opinion .

[Spilsby Red]

Get in Sheffield utd.

[RugbyRover]

Enjoyed that no end. So that's what football can be like. No wonder we love it. I've missed it.

Did anyone else see one of those cut out FA Cup's wrapped in tin foil that the fans wave? BBC focused on one for a second? It had "Fcuk the Tories" written on it. BBC cut away bloody sharpish. Made me laugh

[Reg of the Rovers]

I noticed that Paul Mullin and Paul Heckinbottom have the same face.

[Draytonian III]

I’m not a Blades fan in the slightest but I cheered when they equalised

[vaya]

I noticed that Paul Mullin and Paul Heckinbottom have the same face.

Hopefully it's the right size. Eddie Howe's face is three sizes too small for his head.

Eddie Howe for some inexplicable reason reminds me of a cartoon shark in the face. He is known exclusively as 'shark-face' in my house.

I'd always thought he was John Tracy from Tbirds but I can see what you mean.

He had never even heard of Wrexham before he decided to buy a club in England.
Love the club well maybe now he does but he is not a from the area nor has he ever been a supporter of the club.
It’s just a toy for him to spend his money on? Now in his case I think he is genuine about his ambitions for the club and is very passionate. To buy a club in the 5th tier suggests it not a vanity project which to some of these Premier League owners it obviously is.
John Ryan esq. well good luck to him and the club. It’s good to see someone from abroad have the best interest of the club at heart.
There are other very good foreign owners of course but there are some very unscrupulous ones also.

[danumdon]

Wrexham remind me very much of Lincoln when they cam back into the league a few years ago, looked unbeatable for a season and a half then it all started to dawn on them that they needed to go to the well every game, it eventually caught up with them after a couple of promotions and they are now a bog standard 3 tier team with not too many hopes of progressing further.

The obviously don't have film start money to bankroll them so who knows how long the love affair lasts with the yanks and Wrexham football, could be great or go tits up quite quickly.

Lets see how long the honeymoon lasts for them, Stockport and Gillingham types.

The thing is though and I watched the Disney+ documentary and it mentioned about how much money they was losing something like a few million a season which isn't sustainable. I can't remember the exact figure.

At some point they will bring something into place where they will have to live more within their means but still making a marginal loss at the same time.

That said I believe sponsorship and good crowds will be key plus it mentioned them selling something like 80,000 shirts abroad or something - whenever did we see our ground near enough full when we was having relative success. It was a shame we couldn't have cashed in on Louis Tomlinsons association with the club.

Thing is will they hit a brick wall like Salford have if as expected they get promoted? And how will Wrexham react to their 'saviours' when as expected they start spending less money.

[sedwardsdrfc]

Well since they started in national league and let’s say they end up in L1 then all would recognise the good they’ve done for the club.

They are a decent L1 team. They will be favourites for L2 next season.

it is sustainable as long as the owner is prepared to fund it

Wrexham is in Wales. So how come he decided to buy a club in England, then bought a Welsh one?

Having watched the game I wonder by how many Wrexham will thrash us by next season, that is assuming we have not just switched places in the pyramid.
