Saturated market? Only travelodge have openly said they're looking for a new site in the Wrexham area of the chain hotels.

If not them they could stick a McDonald's there.


Sounds like another Ken Skates vanity project, all went t*ts up in Llangollen and more recently Bridgend with him pushing for this or that.

A university has urged Wrexham councillors to support a £60m college revamp after key parts of the plan were rejected.

Glyndwr University won backing for seven out of nine planning applications related to its Campus 2025 project.

But councillors turned down bids for housing on two plots of surplus land.

Vice-chancellor Prof Maria Hinfelaar said it was "incredibly disappointing", claiming the sale of land for housing was needed to help fund the project.
Whilst that might be true, and pressure will therefore be brought to bear to ensure that one way or another the housing will be approved, it's not a Planning consideration.

Harris dropped a bollock by priming this at the AGM. It tells fans nothing that they haven't been told numerous times,over the last decade or so,namely that there MIGHT be a new Kop stand, at SOME point. He would have known the content of the press release then pending, so would have known that it contained NOTHING of any real substance. Way to go,Mr Chairman!.

People are always going to jump down his throat for some understandable reasons. I think it is a positive aspiration and should be viewed as such, where I dont like the messaging which I've banged on about earlier is the whole "is Wrexham ready for this, you have to tell us you want it".

It sounds like they're getting their excuses in to blame a perceived lack of enthusiasm where for me decisions like this should be telling the townspeople you're doing it rather than getting them to cheer for it like they're at a gig with a warm up act waiting for the main event.

Seems WCBC and Uni have already locked horns with planning permission being refused and the money needed towards this £60m development of the main campus.

I dont know the rights or wrongs of the refusal but all working together on this seems to be in question. Is there really a joined up approach

Not petty (it hasn't irked me one iota),just stating a clear and undeniable fact.

I don't see the problem personally. The football club was told it could trail the news early as the council wanted to make sure we felt properly involved. As far as I can tell Spencer has been involved in a lot of the talks and lobbying going on behind the scenes. Perhaps some gratitude would be nice?
