Do we need an Investor?
Yes, bring in an investor and you’ll rise through the leagues -NOT! Bury have already gone, Bolton will be relegated, Macclesfield are deep in debt and being sued by their players. Orient came tumbling down after being taken over by an Italian Del-boy, now Oldham are staring at administration and a 10 point deduction. Even if we go down, we still have a functioning and viable club |

Plus fan ownership ain't working, and I would say that relegation to the NLN when you are the second biggest club in the league is neither viable nor functioning. |

Is that the same Orient who have since recovered from their one bad owner and have a new private owner who took them out of this league ahead of us? Even the owner of Macclesfield took them out of this league ahead of us, doesn't say much for our glorious leaders does it when bad owners achieve more than them? What a fail of a thread. |

Re: Do we need an Investor?
Fans ownership does seem to have its limits. Are we really “fans owned” though?
Looking at it from a different perspective, am I not just paying an annual fee to be a “member” of a trust which appoints a Club board to own the club? Despite its limits, crazy appointments and contracts do not aid it’s cause. Those who made these decisions are solely responsible for our stagnation in previous years and heavy decline this year. What really boils my pi£& is it has taken a relegation battle for the board to back the manager in January. All those seasons when we’ve needed 1/2 proper players to come in to push on for promotion in January and made real scraping the barrel signings... Clearly self preservation of board positions is more important than promotion and any benefits that would bring. Wasn’t it 2008 when we were relegated? We’re still here! |

Re: Do we need an Investor?
Regardless of the fan owned situation, the point was made about bad private owners. I would suggest that the only thing worth investing in as far as Wrexham FC is concerned is success. The potential as a club is there for all to see, great catchment area, fanbase etc. Downsides are no assets as far as saleable assets are concerned, the lease with the Uni is as a football ground so what would be in it for someone to plough a load of money in with the aim of asset stripping the club?
I would suggest that anyone that fancies making money at Wrexham will only do so on the back of onfield and offfield success. Last edited by wil; 11th February 2020 at 08.22:26.. |
