So, we must ask the questions : Where do we go from here? Do we put the club up for sale? We can't go round in circles can we?

If Walsall had a great season last season, would they have come for Keates? If he'd stayed, would we have stayed at the sharp end of the league? Factors unrelated to budget, which could have meant we were a League club next month.
The budget is enough to compete, but it's not good enough to walk the league, or have a manager that's not really giving us 100%, for whatever reason. We need a hell of a lot of luck and a tailwind to walk the league, we need a decent manager to finish in the playoffs. And we need that manager to be around for all 46 games.
I agree about the budget though. I'd rather watch Wrexham stuck in this league than have no Wrexham to watch.
