Wrecsam

It's great for the fans to see big players being signed but ultimately it will backfire for every season they stay in the championship. Wrexham will be hedging their bets on at least a play off and here is hoping it backfires. I haven't watched the Birmingham documentary, other than clips about Rooney. That will be an interesting one to see how that plays out as well with them

Yes, it will be interesting, in which way this plays out. No doubt the Wrexham fans are optimistic looking at the season ahead, and the owners spending big, but looking at it from a neutral point of view, I think they have made not very clever acquisitions.

I don’t wish them bad mind, Ryan and Rob seem decent fellas, but it’s going to be interesting watching them, doing something which feels like a player/manager computer game, and I think they are chucking the dice.

At home to WBA on Saturday, and I notice 365 have WBA as favourites.

What rinsed me off at times were some swans fans saying that they hope Wrexham did well as it would be great for Welsh football? How? In that respect shouldn’t they wish Cardiff well too?
They seem an entitled bunch now and the arrogance is almost bordering on Cardiff proportions. I hope we absolutely stuff them come December

First home game of the season, maybe its the tele but you can barely hear the crowd, that's disappointing

Oh and they're also losing 1-0

I think they can survive but from what I have seen so far, I dont see them excelling. They have a bang average team for this level and they wasted a lot of money getting it.

2-1 WBA, that was easy.

Game over

Getting a tuning, good. The Wrexham fans on here will be grumpy tonight.

Assist for Bianchinni

 

[Pegojack]

They look very average and one dimensional at Championship level. Lower mid table finish, I think.

Too early to say how Wrectum will do but I’m enjoying it at the moment

Early days and they are still integrating their new players into their team, but they'll be fine and so will we. Anyway, this is standard Hollywood scriptwriting, start off with a series of setbacks and then fight back to be triumphant. I can't be bothered to see who they are playing next, but they'll definitely win it.

Sheffield Wednesday at the Stok Cae Roy Race, written in stone 5-0 home win and Parky carried to Bala Lake and Baptised by the Reverend who spoke at Harry and Meghans wedding! Whilst a male voice choir sings Myfanwy!

Where did you get £65m from £25m was reported and their wage bill must be monstrous this is a big gamble by them

They will have approx 45m revenue this year. If their costs are 25m then they have 20m to spend.

Player contracts are almost all paid over the term of the contract. So you buy a player for 9m on a three year contract and you pay the selling club 3m a year for 3 years. Thats a simplified example.

So if you have 20m extra revenue this year you could spend 60m on transfers because you are then only paying the selling clubs 20m per year in each of the 3 years.

Of course they have other things to spend on. The wage bill increases, build a new stand etc etc but theoretically if they have 20m of spare revenue this year they could buy 60m of new players.
