So hypothetical scenario that I sort of suggested a few days back in another thread.....
Lets say theres 100 Wrexham fans who aren't happy with the current set up and decide each to put £1000 for one person to be on the board. That would be a £100K injection into the club with a seat at the board reporting back to those individuals who put in.
The club gets a cash injection and those who aren't happy get a seat at the board to see whats going on.
Probably not ideal but the current clique need some kind of brake or watch put on them. At least this scenario isn't a companyeither.
