So it looks like the Hollywood actors takeover of Wrexham is going ahead.
It'll be interesting to see how this one goes.

That would seem to be quite apt.  

I am only joking of course PP.

Good news for them, I hope it works out for them as they’re a good club with a good fan base and it would be good to see Shaun lead them to success.

I've never heard of these hollywood stars, but I don't really do celebs. Although I did meet John Mcdermott once, and I declined the opportunity to speak to Paul Futcher as I was too star struck.

No, me neither. I don't hold with trusts losing control of their clubs.

I saw your face and heard you call my name.
Oh my friend we're older but no wiser,

Hope it works out but I wouldn't get overly excited if I was a Wrexham fan. Not sure what their motives are for buying the club but guess it'll become clear soon

The Wrexham Trust and those on its board lost the support of many of the fans some time ago.

"The fifth-tier club will star in a documentary to chart their rise under the actors."

No pressure then.

Our parcelforce delivery guy is a Wrexham, and he's over the moon with it. They've pledged that club will not be moved out of the town, renamed or otherwise copulated about with.

With their money, they should do alright, but they'll also add bums to seats (when they're allowed back in). Not forgetting the extra pull thus will have with advertisers. Ifor Williams must be over the moon with the coverage this has gotten them. Plus they'll pull in a few foreign fans. [url]https://youtu.be/WNYJW9GiX7I[/url]

We need to have a word with his "rival" Hugh Jackman, and see if he'll buy into Town. Although we'd probably do a deal with Disney and still be a mickey mouse outfit
