Yep. I think they’ll end up shifting Parkinson this year as his football is a bit turgid, but in League two there’s still every chance they make the top 3 first time out.

Thing is though Wrexham genuinely have more advertiser pull than most due to the D+/Holloywood effect. No club at their level could get United or TikTok as sponsors, so they’ve not been paid above market value.

this, it's mad to think a company like united are going pay massively over the odds

Bloody hell David.

Their point is that Wrexham's sponsorship value is far higher than any other L2 club. Hence they'll charge 10x more than any other team for sponsorship. They won't overpay, but that price is significantly higher than say Grimsby.

They could go straight through league 2, as could Notts County really, national league to league 2 doesn't seem to be that much of a step up. Don't think they'll 'sail' through league 1 at all when you look at some of the clubs that get stuck there it can be very tricky to get out of. Will the novelty value wear off? Will they stick with a dinosaur like Parkinson? All remains to be seen.

this is the point, also their current method of signing players from about 2 leagues higher and paying them massively inflated wages becomes more financially unsustainable the higher they go

they could rise to the pl in time as luton did but it would need to be more sustainable than their current methods

The sign players from higher leagues on more money is exactly what Salford were doing.

I wonder if they have a spare £30M to spend on Gyokeres.

You're on a forum, losing your head because someone disagrees with you, and all the while agreeing with posts which go against the argument you're putting forward (because you don't understand what they're saying).

Nah, it's nowhere near that easy. The idea that they'd march through L1 especially is laughable.

Big finance potential at Wrexham though, their two Hollywood owners apart from their own wealth will have big contacts in the lucrative world of US sport finance.
I will definitely be putting money on them getting promotion in an accumulator next season.

Personally I hope they have a nice middle of the table season so it all becomes very boring for tv as they will need battles at either end to keep the interest up.

I think you've got to bear in mind they're the strongest side to ever get promoted from the Nat League. I'd fully expect them to get promotion this season at the first time of asking. League one will be tougher, but very conceivable they do it in 2-3 seasons.

Lincoln almost did exactly that in four years (lost in the L1 play off final), and didn't have anything like the resources.

We bought one of our best ever players from the non-league but we could look for another Tim Sherwood I suppose
