The fans voices have been ignored many times, questions have gone unanswered, critics have been silenced, passed resolutions have gone unfulfilled. The petition, when it brings about change, will give hope to Wrexham fans that we do infact own the club and that we can shape it how we want to. That hope should then be carried through to voting for proposed resolutions at EGM/AGM's. At the minute hands are tied and there's not much more that we can do apart from petition the board. The board themselves know we are in a dangerous position due to the pandemic, we have to do something rather than nothing to begin not only securing the future of the club but to see it stand a better chance of success.

ND - can you define what you mean by an apathetic fan base please?
I’m not looking to be argumentative but I am a WST member, sponsor a players shirt, got a season ticket, travel from Wilmslow to home matches and probably watch 30% of away games. I love going to the ground and watching the games good, bad or indifferent. I don’t go to WST meetings as I leave that to those who want to devote their time for free and who I am sure have the best interests of the club at heart.
I did at one time contemplate putting myself forward for the board but why would anyone want the constant crap which is thrown at them? I sure don’t.
As for a wealthy benefactor - I really hope there is one out there, but a run of bad results and it will be owner out, out, out won’t it?
Anyway I really do hope you don’t class me apathetic because I’m not - but I am really only interested in watching football.
Good luck with what you are doing because I can see you care. I also think that you should be cautions about getting what you wish for.
