Suggested WST/WAFC Values

[dragonspark]

Pryce Griffiths did a far better job of running Wrexham FC than the trust/board could ever hope to, Pryce was in his eighties, his wife had past away and his son did not want it, he wanted out he had had enough, he could not have predicted what was to later to transpire, how can you smugly run that bloke down when the crowd that is in charge now are not fit to run a sunday school

Pryce Griffiths sold the club, and arranged a half a million quid bonus as and when the Racecourse was redeveloped.

Considering the plans was to shift us to somewhere else, flog the site to a retail park like Chester for millions, it appears pretty clear he was happy with that.

As for 'he could not predict what was later to transpire' he was quite happy arranging a deal of getting the bunce on the back end when the ground was sold.

I for one am working towards a similar goal, to ensure I can be lauded I the posh seats in Wembley next time we play there. I mean, all that must be a Good Thing to get such treatment?



(Incidentally the 78% majority shareholding control was possible as the minority shareholders sold up for their silver over the years so what was a diversified ownership became a single point of private ownership.)

Didn't his son also provide a statement supporting Hamilton\Gutterman in court? In the court case involving Kenny Pemberton? I'm struggling to remember the details.

Pryce Griffiths turned down valuable grant funding to make The Racecourse a ground with four sided accommodation, preferring his own grandiose plans for The Kop end which did not come to fruition. Ultimately, he was little less than a traitor when he sold out to Hamilton and Gutterman, knowing full well the latter's bad reputation regarding his previous involvement with Chester FC!

Other examples include inviting Pryce Griffiths to Wembley

Good god yes I almost forgot the Wembley incident.
How on earth did the current WST and club board come to that conclusion, knowing the background sale of club shares.
values Eh?

The same reasoning used why we played Bangor City in a friendly game, no thought gone into it whatsoever.

Maybe forgiveness and conciliation are rated as higher values.
