How The Other Half Live !!

Post by Bill Elkins »

Just spotted in the WINDOW WATCH column of the Daily Mail that Wrexham have made their first summer
signing with the arrival of striker Ryan Hardie from Plymouth for £700,000.

Might as well hand them the Championship title now, it will save a lot of time and effort !!!

£700k is hardly a world-breaking transfer fee!!

Steve, I was being slightly ironic but it's £700,000 more than QPR have at the moment. If Wrexham's American
benefactors want to continue throwing money at their project then so be it and good luck to them. 8-)

The thing is Bill Wrexham are going down the" Multi national company" financial route like Manchester United
so they like at Old Trafford will never get done for breach of financial Fair Play.

Basically as long as you spend in proportion to your ACTUAL INCOME you are safe. These days you cant get away
with rich people just throwing unlimited money about. Though Man City will spend the next few years contesting
this in the courts :roll: Cook the books? us? ;) .....and lets not forget Chelsea under Abramovich

It has been recently well documented that Wrexham are now generating massive revenue in the USA. TV Station and
Sponsorship Merchandise Sales and promoting a wide USA fanbase. Over the decades Manchester United have generated
gigantic funds from abroad and got quoted on the New York Stock Exchange although these days they are not selling as
many replica shirts in Chicago or Singapore.

Bill Gates could take over at QPR but his hands would be somewhat tied on the Financial front

Thank you for that Bernard.

A very clear and concise explanation as to what is going on at Wrexham.

I must admit to not Knowing any of what you have set out so eloquently. So again, thank you for that.

By the way Bill I forgot to mention those financial cheats Notts Forest :evil:

Got promotion to the Premiership via the play offs with a rubbish and lucky side....Then the owner
with supreme financial jiggery Pokery signed TWENTY ONE premiership standard players out of thin air.

They survived and sadly the points deduction punishment was not enough to sent them down.

This was a case where cheats did prosper :!:
