Bucket collection

As Phil says, we really benefited from fans of all clubs being united.

Exactly I fully understand those Chester fans that didn't dig deep for us and vice versa but I also know many that did despite the rivalry and I know that many Wrexham fans will. I think we are a bigger club a real football town with a proud history. I am proud that our club my club Wrexham has organised a bucket collection because we are a big club.

So we are collecting for a club who can go out and sign Dominic Vose and who’s fans smashed up our toilets. It’s disgusting that that our board are so far from reality in the football world to even consider this.

Have they not raised 75k since January, they needed 50k to see the season out, another 22k plus awarded for the sale of Alabi to Trans. They can afford to bring in Vose today, not quite in the position we were in 6/7 years ago. Willing to chip in if it was life or death, this seems to be avoided for the moment.

Advice from someone involved in running Chester, amazing we lasted this long.

Agreed,

If it was shit of bust, I'd throw a few quid in but it seems to me that they have done enough not to need it right now.

Agree but we have a few do good snowflake fans that will help anyone no matter what bull shirt is spouted. If you have spare cash give it to our club or charity and Chester FC are no charity. If Vose scores at the racecourse and we lose points just wait to see what is said on RP then .

No you're right. I wish I could go down the 'blues bar' after the derby and enjoy a bit of witty banter with the Chester fans.

I feel I'm really missing out.

Who's holding the buckets anyway? Hopefully they struggle for volunteers.

IF they are signing players they can’t be in danger.
