No chance. We'd have an even worse team than we do now (the LOW standard would have use screaming out for the likes of Jazzi Barnum-Bobb), most players would rather played in the English system than the Welsh. I dunno if I'd stop supporting if we got into the LOW but I certainly think it'd kill most fan interest in the club.

As other have said that would never happen, you'd be out long before , but even if it did that would be no prize in itself without a proper league and a proper competition to compete in week in and week out.

I've watched wrexham for nearly 40 years and of course we have had some big cup games in that time but a glamour tie every few seasons is not the thing that has sustained my interest.

The way we are set up and playing we wouldn't win anything in the LOW to qualify for the European cups.

Doesn't he work for S4C? Maybe I'm putting two and two together but it maybe in his interests if a 'big' side came into the league.

A huge loss of revenue and fans, and turning our back on over a century of tradition isn't worth it for the chance to play Partizan Belgrade or FC Copenhagen in a knock out game we'd lose. We'd have to leave the Racecourse and end up ground sharing with Cefn or something.

Finishing behind Airbus and Connahs Quay Nomads every year would make this season seem postlitively magnificent.

No thanks Malcolm.

We tried it once before, when the club left the Combination to join the Welsh League as part of a money saving exercise, in 1894. But the club were forced to rejoin the combination just 2 years later, because of reduced attendances as the fans deserted the club in droves.

Back in 1894 some were blaming the fans.
