Welsh Government accused of 'passing the buck' over Wrexham's Racecourse - Page 6 - RedPassion.co.uk

Wrexham Council may be useless - but the Welsh Assembly are not interested in North Wales.

Oh sorry - to be fair their brief tells them they should throw us a few crumbs now and then!

Have the football club put a case forward for funding? Does anyone know?

Give him due though, he has at least backed his argument up with information which does suggest that he has a point over the perceived involvement of the South Wales counci..... I mean government in those projects.

What tickles me, is when Cardiff gets something. Whether it's the airport, Aston Martin factory, or any other heavily subsidised project, it's for the benefit of the whole of Wales...

Yes...Can really feel the glow up here..

To be fair, things now really do seem to be happening for this area and are driven by Skates. In fact he seems to be becoming the de facto AM for Wrexham, which is great because we don't have a real one.

Or like now the Wrexham tax office being closed but being sold as good news for Wales overall as Cardiff is going to be one of the new "hubs" so more jobs overall in Wales! And the people in the Wrexham office can simply transfer there!

Loving your debating style. Lose an arguement complete so start picking on where people are from.

Seems to me that having a CF postcode may be an advantage?

I'd argue that has more to do with the WG's relationship with the WRU rather than the fact it's in Cardiff. Got to keep the freebies coming, haven't they?!

About time we were seen as an important part of North Wales history and invested in.
