Default Ambition

I personally feel this is the biggest conversation around Wrexham Football Club. Especially when approaching the start of a new season.

Ambition is a state of mind, its an aspiration.

Some people, the big dreamers, have heaps of ambition and feel they can conquer the world. Vision = Champions

Then there are the doom-mongers who think everything is going to be rubbish, because it always is. Vision = Relegation

Somewhere in the middles is most people, the realists who think that some ambition is good but that it should be realistic. Vision = 8th position.

I think most football fans respond to a club taking an ambitious approach and do actually feel stimulated by it and get an excited buzz. That usually means the club has to invest in a top striker or top goalkeeper or top midfielder or top central defender, or all of them.

But ambition is also limited to the boring important practicalities like available funds and risk assessments on available budget. So you don't go bust.

There is usually a meanline where a club's ambition and intent has to be sufficient and real to get the fans all believing. Otherwise any publicity or branding will just come in one ear and go out the other.
