all this is so weird, so surreal, after years of increasing despondency, a sign from heaven i am beginning to believe that there just might be a god after all, everywhere people are talking about this and most importantly talking about returning to the racecourse, there is far more to this than first meets the eye, i detect a growing interest of proportions most Wrexham fans would not dare to believe in, it is time to believe, get this deal done, let the dreams become reality

"To the supporters, staff, players, friends and family of Wrexham AFC:

We’re two people who’ve made a career of never taking ourselves too seriously. However, we realise taking stewardship of this great and storied club is an incredibly serious matter and something we don’t take lightly. With that in mind, we wanted to take you through our Goal, Principles and Promises.

Our Goal
Our goal is to grow the team, return it to the EFL in front of increased attendances at an improved stadium while making a positive difference to the wider community in Wrexham.

Guiding Principles
If permitted, we’d chase that goal guided by four essential principles.

1. To protect the heritage that has made Wrexham AFC and the Racecourse Ground such a special place to watch football for the last 156 years.

2. To reinforce the values, traditions and legacy of this community. We understand and respect the intense loyalty and love for this club and how it’s woven into the fabric of the town and its supporters.

3. To use our resources to grow the exposure of the club. Of course, this would be in concert with protecting the heart and spirit of a community-led historical icon. But why can't the third oldest club in the world have a global appeal?

4. To reward the faith of the supporters who have stood by Wrexham AFC through its history by putting everything we have towards what all fans want most for their club, and that is to...

WIN, WIN, WIN.

Everything we do will be informed by these four principles and never one without the other. We want to be part of Wrexham's story, not drag the club into ours.

Hard Promises
Provide comprehensive financial support for the manager and his coaching team. Build a sustainable model which will attract the best players and best staff to the Racecourse Ground.

Always beat Chester.*

Explore the renovation of the Racecourse Ground and improve the venue for the club, for International matches and perhaps, the occasional Tom Jones gig.

Invest in a permanent training facility that is worthy of an EFL club.

Guarantee the club cannot be relocated, renamed or rebranded. Appropriate and respectful observance of the Gresford Colliery Disaster will remain sacrosanct.

Recognising the role fans and the WST have played in stewarding the club through extremely difficult times, we will create an honorary board that includes fans, representatives of the WST and WAFC alongside our own advisors.

Ensure the continued presence of Dixie McNeil as the club's honorary President, subject to his desire.

Always beat Chester.*

Expand club staff to take advantage of increased interest in Wrexham, both locally and internationally.

Recognise and reinforce Wrexham AFC's role as a leading force for community good in the town. Work with the Club’s Disability Liaison Officer, Kerry Evans to retain and enhance Wrexham’s reputation as an inclusive and forward-thinking club, alongside other important local groups such as the Racecourse Community Foundation, food banks and schools.

Commit to a more ecologically-sustainable version of the club and stadium.

Commit to transparent decision making with regular and open communication.

Ensure that when the day comes that we leave the Club, it will be in a better position than it is today.

ALWAYS BEAT CHESTER.*

Under any other circumstance, we’d be in Wrexham right now, touring the Racecourse Ground, having a pint with supporters in person. But 2020 has other plans for us all. We hope you'll put your trust in us, because we’ll work every day, for as long as you'll have us, to ensure the world knows that Wrexham is the name.

*If we ever play Chester again.

Rob and Ryan"
Where's Crewered this morning ?

Particularly like the above, shows a real touch of class.
Like, many on here I'm sure, as someone who lost my Grandfather due to injuries in the disaster, this means a hell of a lot.
I always make a point of visiting the memorial at Gresford whenever I'm in town.

However i remember seeing Spencer interviewed on TV and he seemed really chuffed about the prospect of this take over.
Only my opinion but i sense it would be a yes from him.
Spencer will sit on the Board for sure .

I could well see it. He loves the role he does and what comes with it, I cannot see him wanting to stand aside and not be a part of it. Part of me doesn't blame him.

To be honest i wouldn't begrudge him a place on the Honorary board at least. He may have been involved in some crazy decisions in the past but he always stuck by them. And it was always him who stuck his head above the parapet.

Who cares if he's involved at this point? Let's just get the deal done. If he's on the new board, so be it. He won't be making the important football decisions anymore. That's all that matters. Let him carry on with the kop development or whatever. He'd also be good comedy value in any potential documentary.

I don't doubt he'll be on the honorary board.

That doesn't mean he will have his hands on the controls.
