I wish they would too. The board if they have the interests of the football club at heart should be actively seeking new owners. Time to hold their hands up and admit it hasnt worked out. The disappearance of the Ward money is the last straw imo

by now the boards must be able to see the evidence that the majority of fans are or are beginning to lose faith, it must be misery for the board too

The cash cow is pretty much milked out now though

And well done to our board and fans for this, believe the total will be around £130K in all. The idea of this was to keep us 'hybrid'.

Big problem we have as many clubs will have is being fan owned is that the lack of people through the gate will kill us. If we (or you) can't have fans back soon or if there's a second wave we'll both go to the wall.

Decent total, sounds like the board is moving on ticketing and merchandise as well.

This post is wrong on so many levels.
- we haven’t used “the bulk” of the Ward money we have used it all
- it isn’t “disappointing we have used it. It is criminal
- our business model isn’t to sell players to survive anymore as we can’t risk a year without a sale.
- the ward sell on was life changing money to us, we can’t generate that money commercially and it has been pissed up the wall.
-£200K is the WST bank balance not the clubs. We haven’t been told the clubs financial state despite Being asked to donate to “save” Wrexham FC
- justifying us wasting the Ward money because some other clubs may have sent is frankly a moronic argument
- there is no sign of any more sell on fees as long as the WST run down our youth department and do their level best to ensure the resolution to suppprt the youth department doesn’t pass

I think your last post Haruki should be made a sticky . The number of Board supporters who come on and make excuses for grown mens failings is weird , they fanny about not hitting nail on head so often , it's like they are pre programmed , well done .
