Consortium bidding for Wrexham

I thought we had only banked a small percentage which is why we cant spend it.
Any sale wouldnt give them huge amounts of cash surely.

My vote will be to sell now.

Agree with mostly with what you say not All of course but in the main, the past has scared fans in this club who are happy to plod along in non league, I accept they have run the club well off the field, but ruined that work by wasting money on the playing side.

We should be open to investment, however proper due diligence would have to be done by a professional legal entity with no bias towards the consortium or club. Facts could then be put forward in easily understood terms to the WST and FC Board, and also available to the WST members to view.

Having been stung twice already, many quite understandably still have reservations on ulterior motives of investors. In reality if we really want to progress when we get back to the EFL, then external investment will be essential, as the current model, which has put us into a secure financial state, can only take us so far.

Maybe that’s the latest RP vote worth having? If they are solid investors obviously.

The football side has nothing to do with those clubs troubles , in fact Blackpool were promoted last season. Blackpool have been robbed blind by the Oyston family and Bolton’s owner was formally disqualified as a company director and lives in Monaco, sound familiar?0

Good private owners of football clubs far outweigh the bad ones.

Just seen mention of 'clear the air' meeting so might finish the list later

A toy for a wealthy person sounds the best. I could live with the other though
