They didn't just put Wrexham on the map. He made us genuinely care about the club and more importantly the people who supported the club before it was "cool". In a world filled with so much anger, to me it's a breath of fresh air to see people act like what a human being is supposed to act like and just being happy. I just learned today that back in the day it was the supporters of this club were the ones who build the Kop with shovels and wheelbarrows so more of them could watch a match. Amazing.

All clubs came from the community. Unfortunately, many have been taken corporate and away from their roots. I know Liverpool fans who don’t want to be bought out by an oil state for this same reason. Let’s hope the owners of Wrexham stay on this path

There is only very limited space to expand the other stands in the future. The two main stand have a road and a pretty new highrise building behind them. The other one could maybe get expanded by buying up parts of the parking lot. Gonna get difficult if Wrexham really makes it into the premier league one day to keep this ground.

The new stands will add 5500 seats. (speculation) A few years down the road when they're in league 1 and pushing towards promotion to Champions league, they can redo the stands at the other end zone (The Wrexwrent Stand) and expand it from 2800 to 5500. Which would add another 2700 seats expanding total capacity to 18200. Finally, when they start pushing towards promotion to Premier League, they can redo Wrexham Lager Stand and expand it from 4200 to 7200 and expand the total capacity to 21200. With 21200 seats that's enough of a base to financially compete in the big leagues.

Exactly this. It's not going to be just about drawing attention and winning games and signing players. In the long run it's about building the Racecourse into a Premier-level venue, which is going to be a very long-term project no matter what. It's very possible, but it's going to take well over a decade. They'll also have to build up parking and traffic capacity while they're at it.

The original kop stand had an additional seated area on top from the then local majestic cinema. The mold road stand built 99 was bordered up from early 90s and was condemned in 1985 (Bradford). The stand in front of the uni was built in the 70s following the sale of Micky Thomas to Man Utd. The terracing was replaced with seats in 98/99, same with Wrexham lager stand

Good onya lad taking an interest. Tricky redevelopment project innit. Geotechnical is the key with the kop. Can fuck up the pitch if they’re not careful. Turfs gotta move. Put ‘em in the corner of the lot. Let the stands grow along the road. Would make a deal with the college to eat up their parking for a larger stand and share the facilities underneath, like a proper weight room or a lounge.

Are there any chances of the Welsh National team games ever returning ? Used to be a stronghold when I was a kid. Had a soft spot for them as they had Dixie McNeill up front in the 70s and as a young Evertonian always used to think of him in terms of our legend Dixie Dean.

Good Vid mate. Just what I was looking for. They’re REALLY getting on with it aren’t they. So pleased for Wrexham. I truly believe EVERY word them lads say with what they’re going to do. It’s a good space they’ve got. I’d have thought a little deeper and wider like the ‘Holt End’ at Villa really, fill the corners in, more capacity. But that’s half the revenue again each week on top once upto 15k. I hope the leveling up fund has coughed to some of this at least, about time the North saw a bit more. Cheers.

Wrexham do want a new stadium, but it takes time to find land and land the council are happy to have a ground built on, and then you’re looking at 2 years further to build. So 4+ years from now minimum. The expansion is relatively cheap and will suffice until the club get to the Championship, and they will get there with these owners.

No offense but you guys have never seen the stadiums in America. That would barely be good for a small college team. Most of the better colleges have 100,000+ seating. In the professional stadiums the standards are higher. Even the small places like Soldier Field. Have over 60,000 seats. Ryan and Rob need to market the tickets locally. It will turn out a mess like the shirts. If they keep pushing the brand worldwide.

Unfortunately I think it is a waste of time, money and human resources. That stadium should be moved to another location, where it can grow further. As you can see, no further expansion is possible towards the other areas. So, no possibilities to expand even more in the future. I think it is a bad decision.

When did people become obsessed with future expansion plans on KZfaq. With no thought about cost, economic conditions, projected future growth or the importance of a historic club playing in their historic ground (not only for the local community but the marketing of a traditional club). New grounds are generally terrible, expensive and soulless. Unless you spend a billion like Spurs. This is the perfect current solution for the position Wrexham are in.
