I agree we have to ditch Darlington and start with a clean slate; but I trust Keates will sign some good players, even if he doesn't last the season.
The quality of players will be a real gamble - a player with a decent scoring record from September-March may have fallen behind with fitness since lockdown. This season, more than ever, we need to target players who are used to being at the top end of the NL, or local players who will play out of their skin for Wrexham.
Any repeats of signing players with records like JBB, Adam Barton and McIntosh should be stamped out. Keates had the nous to freeze them out, so that bodes well.

I feel the opposite. If we were a well functioning football club with a manager that fans could get behind we might have more of a chance. As it stands the club is divided, fans are actively refusing to put money in and apathy is rife. I really do think we won't have the budget to compete at all
