How do you feel post takeover? - RedPassion.co.uk

Absolutely over the moon! This could be a huge, huge era for the club. Young, old and those that haven't been interested in the club for years. It's time to come together and show them how good this club can be.

WREXHAM IS THE NAME

Relieved

I am still blown away to be honest!

Didn't we all look on enviously when a team was bank rolled to success, leaving us behind.

We have hit the jackpot in terms of the type of owners. They seem genuine, rich and mega stars. The exposure will be unreal. We will be one of the most well known football clubs globally because of this, regardless what division we play in!

Having said all that, the most important thing is we get back into the FL. It will not be easy, and still a lot of uncertainty with our league. I do not think they will throw silly money at players. I expect us to still attract top players for our level because of the exciting journey we will be on.

Lets sit back, relax and enjoy the ride for now!!!!!

I feel like the proverbial kid on Christmas morning!

I also can't stop thinking about all of our lost ones who are no longer with us and will be missing out on the exciting times ahead.

Relieved there were no hitches, it has seemed to good to be true and for that reason I half expected something to go wrong.

Calming initial expectations for now due to Covid and the transfer window being closed etc, looking forward to the ride starting from next season, fingers crossed with the fans back.

Like perhaps that extra beer wasn’t quite worth it when I’m working from home all day...

But then again, I’ll probably repeat the trick tonight!

Can’t wait for the good times to return, fingers crossed, we are going to be A MASSIVE global force to be reckoned with. After being in the doldrums for so long, in this tin pot league, we crave success. I have been fortunate enough to see some good times but most of all I want it for the younger fans, they so deserve it!

Don't think it will ever feel normal. To be so used to mediocrity, with occasional glimmers of hope, this is unreal.

Wrexham as a whole needed a boost, and it was never going to be realised by government investment. I think this will be the biggest thing to impact the area since the mines were open.

I love how R&R have tapped into the things that were already cornerstones of the place. Wrexham Lager, Ifor Williams, The Turf, Fat Boar, Saith Seren.

It's comforting to know that they see what's good about the town, and want to enhance it, rather than replace it with something gimmicky or trendy.

I just hope I'll still be able to buy my season-ticket, and they won't all be bought up by Arabian sheikhs and Japanese investment bankers.

The sense of relief is a little overwhelming given the issues in the world. They could have pulled the plug on this quite easily.

Clearly, the Trust took the club as far as they could in terms of their resources and expertise/ability so I am excited to see how someone else will do.

But ultimately, I am hopeful that when my kids are old enough to watch and understand the game, they won't be watching the utter tripe we've become accustomed to for the last 10+ years.
