How many posters have to take a position before you're confident you're able to take the contrarian one?

Boro have cheated the system far more than Wrexham and tried to bully other clubs with threats to take them to court. Lovely.

I honestly don’t get it. Wrexham are one of the oldest clubs in the uk and would never in reality have achieved anything without a big cash injection.
A lot of the cash also is being used for regeneration around the ground.
In reality it’s no different to someone like Jack Walker buying the PL title with Blackburn.
It’s nothing like the Birmingham consortium who are trying to make it some kind of NFL franchise opportunity but even they will create some massive regeneration if the project happens.

Ya the Wrexham hate is jealousy rather than them actual doing much evil

Well, maybe the fact they have Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney and we have Brylowes and Rob872.

I dont care for either of them. People getting enamoured by celebrities is so odd to me.Well, maybe the fact they have Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney and we have Brylowes and Rob872.

Never met either, but both post on here a lot.
Or are you talking about the Wrexham pair?

I never remember any negativity about Elton John owning Watford and he had a lot of publicity back in the day by the media

Its irrelevant to a discussion on celebrities owning football clubs and getting a lot of media coverage?

Out of interest why do you want Wrexham to go up but Boro to fuck it up?

Echo someone else really for me. Wrexham will spend big if they go up, which may hinder us. That's the main reason we should want them to stay down.
Can't stand the media love in either though. The fawning from Sky is particularly cringeworthy. Having the owners commentating on a sky channel is ridiculous and probably verging on disrespectful to Swansea. As for the fairytale stuff, because they've come from non league to championship playoffs.... give over.

Yes I dont get why anyone would want a team to get promoted who will spend £120m minimum

Don't want them to come up because they'll spend and Im not keen on the media love in.
But as Ive said before, know a few of their support, (related to some), who were there when they had owners who gave sisu a run for their money so delighted for them.
Can think of plenty of clubs with far worse owners.

Well Gibson tried once to get us relegated from the PL for breaking rules, he’s tried to sue another club while breaching rules himself yet assumes some strange moral high ground which fans seem to lap up.
