If we were to get the suggested Kop redevelopment with circa 5,000 seats, what would the plan then be?

As we already close one stand for cost cutting reasons in cup games will we be closing one of the existing stands on a match day in order to open the kop?

3,500 fans in a 15,000 seat stadium will not be a good look.

Will we be able to afford to open 4 stands on a normal match day? Personally I doubt it as things stand. Logic would be to close the Tech End.

Not sure if things have really been thought through to be honest..That's assuming you believe that it will actually happen? Being in the bottom 3 suggests their are higher priorities at the moment

Bottom 3 in the fifth tier of football- the lowest position in our entire history, and now people are talking about surrendering The Racecourse too. It would have to be said that this fans-ownership thing hasn’t worked out very well .

How much is the Racecourse valued at by Glyndwr?

Sadly this is because of football decisions and circumstances. DK needed to halt our slide when appointed first time. Ricketts was doing well until lured by more money and a bigger challenge. Then the mess.

Now we have reverted to the cheap option with very little ambition. DK has the task of saving us again and therefore spending any spare money on this rather than it be used to progress us.

With a team devoid of leadership we will only escape with changes in key areas IMO. All this while the boards bask in the glory of achieving financial stability.
If we go down budgets will be slashed.

Not certain but seem to remember a figure in the region of £2m when we leased it

Wrexham AFC without Y Cae Ras and playing in the conference North would be the most calamitous failure of the clubs entire history.

Just the cherry on the cake after the last 7 years.

Do you know if we could we have tried to buy it for that sort of figure?
