[Football] Wrexham v Boreham Wood 6.30 today

[SUIYHP]

You'd have thunk a L1/lower Championship side would take a punt on Mullen...

Probably more glamour/bunce staying at Wrexham

He was at Cambridge in League 1 before signing for Wrexham, he is playing way below his actual level. Makes me think his wage packet is quite generous

I know they’ve bought the league and I’d be pissed (even thought there’s 7 or 8 of these types in the prem) if we were in there with them (like Grimsby / Notts Co etc have been) but a great little club. Remember we played them last game in 2004 or 2005 when we won in the play offs and there were protests. We joined in and they came and clapped us etc. Always good feeling amongst the fans.

Yeah, came across the pitch to clap us if memory serves me correctly? Remember the whole ground singing against the owners - holding up pieces of card too I think?

 

[Neville's Breakfast]

Another excellent goal. Wrexham are back.

Yeh - we win 2-0 Iwelumo scored & it was the first time he had his hair as an Afro I think - my memory is weird.

I remember somewhere saying Paul Mullin won't move away again from travelling distance to his family

Striker Paul Mullin is next Welcome to Wrexham documentary star

INTERVIEW: In the two new episodes of the documentary produced by owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney that are released this week, it is Paul Mullin who takes centre stage.

Happy to have him back at Tranmere but he will be playing here for Wrexham.

How has a wealthy benefactor helped us climb the leagues more than any normal owner?? Our championship budget was moderate, and our current budget is also mediocre for a PL side.

I have no issue with Wrexham, I take issue with the nonsensical attention they are getting since they were taken over by billionaire owners, they are the Man City of the conference.

They have Ben Foster in goal ffs, he was playing in the PL last season, they have several players on 4 times the wage of any other teams in the conference, Mullin I believe is on 5k a week.

Neither are anywhere near billionaires?

To date they’ve invested about £3.5m into the club

 

[Robdinho]

Yep, their owner was planning to sell off their ground to developers, with no alternative ground lined up. Sound familiar?

 

[Neville's Breakfast]

Mullin is their Knockeart in the celebrations

"He's fat, he's round, he only wants the ground. Gutterman, Gutterman"

Amazing what outspending everyone achieves.

Ah yes, remember that now!

Red card protest, singing Sack the Board.

Dick Knight looked shocked until he realised it was aimed at Gutterman, not him.

True but as others have said I'm happy to cut wrexham a good chunk of slack - 15 years in the NL is pretty shit for a club their size and they were run terribly for years. Deserve it imo

2 months ago the owners of Mint Mobile sold their stakes to TMobile for $1.3bn.
That's just one of Reynolds business interests, out side of Marvel.

 

[Stella Seagull]

Does this mean we get to hear less about them now?

 

[Springal]

And Aviation Gin a few years back for $845M !

Amazing what outspending everyone achieves.

Can’t think of any other club that has a rich benefactor investing millions into their club.

 

[Stat Brother]

Anyhoo.

So Hartlepool seem likely to be swapping places with Wrexham.

Oh how different it could be if the owners of Hartlepool hadn't thought they were being pranked, when the call came in from Hollywood.

 

[HalfaSeatOn]

Good to see a city like Wrexham get a massive boost. It needed it. Good for the North Wales catchment area too.
