Is that true? I genuinely don't know. I thought that in football terms the owners weren't *that* rich and this may be about their peak. Certainly not in the same league as Birmingham appear to be, which isn't to say they can't still splash the cash. |  | | |

You can’t just splash the cash , it breaks the rules , they will have a max spend based on income v outlay as does everyone else . | | | |

They will need to spend because they have a fair few journeymen in there |  |

Only if they have an 'exempt from PSR' card they can play.
Same for Birmingham. | | | |

They have posted record profits for two years in a row and they will be able to get even bigger brand deals now. They will have some serious money to spend. |  |

They really won’t. Unless they get much bigger backers. They have reached their peak. Prices will be beyond a couple of Hollywood stars wages now. |  | | |

Wealth-wise, aren't their owners relative minnows by Championship standards? Think they'll be in a not dissimilar position to us this year next season with a squad that's come up three divisions. I suspect it will be a tough season for them. |  | | |

They are but I assume they will have some serious contacts to recruit billionaire board members. They do need a squad overhaul though. | | | |

Yes, but all the connections and brand deals they keep doing are only going to get bigger with this success. In the League Two promotion season, IIRC, their turnover was higher than all of league two and one, and would place them in the top half of the championship. They're also debt free. So whilst the owners clearly aren't billionaires, the strength of the brand and the connections they have will carry them through I suspect. I don't see them challenging for playoffs, but I do think they will stay up relatively easily. | |

Indeed - anyone else see the cringeworthy Wrexham insertion in the new Black Mirror as though it's 'cool'? For Americans they now represent EFL and a version of 'proper' football somewhat laughably.
Last time I saw Wrexham was about eight years ago in a cup replay at Newport. Funniest thing was that at the time their 'celebrity fan' feature in the programme could only muster a BBC Cymru presenter... | | | |

He has that touch and composure that others don't, I assume his off the ball stuff isn't so good?
I can never figure why he isn't featuring more | |

The potential difference with Wrexham is income, though. Birmingham etc have owners who *could* plow hundreds of millions in, but aren't allowed.
If Wrexham sign all those TV/partnership/sponsor deals off the back of them being the Hollywood club, it's all *income* rather than owners' money, so it can be spent... | | | |

It'll be interesting to see if (and for how long) they think Phil Parkinson is the best they can get. Can he handle the rise caused by three promotions back-to-back. |  | | |

Oh yes I'm sure they'll be some manipulation of income.....
And we know EFL really crack down on breaking the rules.....! | | | |

He is a bit type cast as a League One specialist, the same is getting thrown at Farke with the Championship
Watford often would fire and hire randomly without seemingly any logic to it | |

Well, I can't disagree with the EFL dig...
But I think it's probably naive to think they'd need to manipulate income. I mean, Hollywood is a beast. The club is famous around the world now, it's a story made for a movie, the owners on their own can demand millions just to put their names to things... there's money in them there hills, I tells ya. | | | |

They're certainly able to attract investment in a way Birmingham wouldn't be
I can't quite get my head around Brum saying they can earn more income than non-parachute clubs, how are they wangling that one?
Their crowds are going to be approaching 30k, I can't believe St Andrews is big on the corporate stuff but it is in a larger city?
Watford used to smash us on corporate stuff despite being poorly supported just because they were on the edge of London | |

I think this is the key point. They have a very high turnover rate of players and a fair few of their current crop won't be able to cut it in the Championship.
Can see them finishing lower half in the first season and then pushing for play-offs in 26/27. |  | | |
