Wrexham FC
« on: January 3, 2011, 08:39:14 pm »
Lads, we all know what its like being shafted by owners, its happening ait Wrexham too. Its almost a mirror image of LFC. Please Please read whats below and help us.



Joey Jones made the swiss roll once now his hometown clum needs your help.

If you care about the future of Wrexham FC then please take the time to send this email to the following people. lucasi@parliament.uk lesley.griffiths@wales.gov.uk aled.roberts@wrexham.gov.uk

Today's Leader carries an article with the headline 'Chairman's plan
to lease out Racecourse Ground to both clubs' which goes on to says
that Wrexham FC and Crusaders RL will have to share the cost of
running the Racecourse Ground which is £300,000 a year.

As you know, Wrexham Football Club (2006) Ltd. owns the Racecourse
Ground so how are Messrs. Moss and Roberts allowed to transfer the
ownership of the Racecourse Ground to a new holding company?

According to Wrexham FC's last set of published accounts, the football
club is losing around £30,000 per week and it is now being asked to
pay £3,000 per week to play at it's own ground. I can now see one of
two things happening.

Wrexham FC gets further into debt, goes into administration, gets
thrown out of the Conference Premier and has no ground to play at
which means the end of Wrexham FC as we know it.

The other scenario is that Wrexham FC can't afford to pay the terms of
the lease to play at the Racecourse Ground and end up being evicted
and having to find another ground to rent and play at.

Neither of these scenarios can EVER be allowed to happen, please can
you do everything in your power to stop this from happening. We have
fought to stop this happening in the past and we will fight to stop it
happening again if needs be.



Here is a petition also,

Help us Please fellow Redmen!

Great Euro memories of Racecourse - had few mates at time from Wrexham so went with them to the Zaragoza game. Lost only on away goals, unlucky on night.

Good Luck and emails to follow.

It's true to say that if Shankly had told us to invade Poland we'd be queuing up 10 deep all the way from Anfield to the Pier Head.

And sent emails.

It isn't just a problem exclusive to foriegn ownership or top flight football and in terms of protecting the sport we love we have a duty to help other fans and  other clubs. Football is ran by scumbags.

@BigTiredGrowlSnarl
If there is anything else to be sent and anyone else to send them to let me know either in the thread or PM.

Good Luck.
