Sounds good. How long will all that business take given that there are 28 days in the transfer window, the takeover is not done, keates is still the manager etc?

After watching the first two streams only I agree completely with your views.

In fairness, before the takeover talks began, this was all I was expecting anyway. Maybe 10th at a push. I didn't expect Keates to take us down, just not to take us up either.

Now we've (nearly) got a bit of a warchest we should take advantage of an on-average weak league. Granted it'd be a very Wrexham way to do it the one season we're not allowed fans in the ground to see it but still, any promotion is a good promotion.

Why do you not expect at least that ? What makes the other clubs around us vying for those play off spots more capable ?

Just sayin

Lake in particular was an ex Premier League player and it showed. He had the ball like it was on a piece of elastic and everyone around him went up 10% because we controlled possession.Football is a simple game made complicated by idiots like Keates & Darlington

If we bring in 2 or 3 quality players we can still do this via the play offs but we need to bin Keates to do it
In both of your examples did we need?

New management
New coaching
New training facillities
New players
Renewal of the youth system
Renewal of the reserves system

Not to mention the changes which are required for club ethos, ambition and infrastructure.

Even if we did get the management and coaching we need it's not going to take a few weeks for them to turn this ship around.

I'm as excited about this takeover as much as you are, but this club's a shell. This season is about giving some pride back to the fans, something to enjoy and shout about, something to look forward to. The foundations we need for success are gone, they need to be rebuilt so our success can really begin next season.

How can anyone claim the WST did a good job after reading this?

You obviously have a lot more optimism than I do. I’d like you to be right, of course I would. I just don’t see us turning into a great team as soon as we sign 6 players and get a new manager. It’ll take time.

The new manager will have to find a way to accommodate Ruthers first and foremost.
