Executive Director Humphrey Ker has provided the following update regarding the search for a new Wrexham AFC manager.

The Wrexham AFC board is committed to returning the Club to the EFL at the earliest opportunity and are currently running a process to find a manager who will be best suited to achieve this objective.

We have a formal process in place and are hugely encouraged by the quality of the candidates who have put themselves forward already.

However, we are disturbed by the abuse aimed at potential candidates on social media and would like to apologise to them on behalf of the club.

As the overwhelming majority of our fans will agree - this type of behaviour is not welcome at Wrexham AFC and we will continue to work with the rest of football to make online abuse a thing of the past.

Indeed. If any Wrexham fans took part in the abuse I hope they're identified and swiftly handed lifetime bans.

So called Wrexham fans should be ashamed about the abuse they have given her.
And it's very poor publicity for the club and us normal fans

Worrying if she is part of it. Least they know it would go down like a lead balloon though.

The half dozen or so Mens Rights activists on RP would be furious.

“Lead Balloon”.

I’ve been away for a long time. Oddly reassuring to see nothing has changed.
