Fair play to them though, how many of us saw it as a publicity stunt at the start? They have put their money where their mouths are and you can’t but be impressed with the steady rise of the club.

Reynolds and McElhenney could put in the money to get them from National League to League One.
But getting from where they are now to fighting at the top of the Championship and eventually maybe even the PL takes a lot more money - there are Championship clubs spending £15m+ on one player and they've clearly recognised that.
I still believe it won't end well. Once they start to struggle and/or the interest in their TV show drops then they'll lose interest in the club.
This is about one thing, their egos.
I don't see Wrexham getting promoted this season. There are far better teams in League One and Parkinson is not a League One level manager, not for a team that want to be promoted.
That will be a test for them after two successive promotions.

He’s led two teams to promotion from L1 to the championship, so not sure what a L1 manager would be if not someone who’s successfully been promoted from there on two occasions?

He got Bolton promoted from there when they had a brilliant squad, would have been a huge disappointment if he didn't take them up.
More impressive with Colchester but that was over 15 years ago.
I do not think he will ever be the person to take them up.

I agree. Think we have a few green eyes monsters lurking. They have exactly what we would love to have.

No jealousy at all, we're currently a Championship club and they're a League One club.
Like I said, I don't see them going up this season either. Good start but can see them tailing off.
Anyone who is a City fan that is jealous of them need to get a grip.

Thinking about it, Any City fan who isn’t a bit envious of how the club is run might need to think again. They've gone from strength to strength, with high-profile, supportive owners who’ve put football experts in charge. The team sees consistent investment, welcomes other investors, and has maintained a winning mentality for the past three or four seasons. Sounds familiar? It’s a lot like where we were about 20 years ago.

A lot of that is true.
Regardless of if they are doing it for their TV show or to boost their own images, they have taken a club who had no hope for a very long time, and brought back a sense of unity in Wrexham.
They are putting money into redeveloping their town centre, allowing the football people to get on with the football, and using their fame to attract players who are arguably above the level that they signed at.
Meanwhile, we are stuck with a merrygoround of poor managers (apart from the odd one), a never ending court case, a completely split fanbase and an owner who has taken every club he’s owned and made them worse.
There is stuff to be envious of.
They have a plan and they are executing it. Which can’t be said for us.

If people think city fans are envious of Wrexham bet reading fans are envious of every football club in efl way they're run? NO two football clubs are run the same way ... so why stop at being envious at just Wrexham .... personally could never be envious of any other club why should I be?
Ps they've gone into investing as well (Wrexham brewery) probably means decent pint in club house..
