Yet they omit to mention ITFC (Purchased by Gamechanger two months after the Wrexham change of ownership), and then have a quote saying:

"These are guys who are super smart, well-financed investors with a lot of ego and bravado and they want to prove that they are up to the challenge of picking up a team in League Two or League One and 'doing a Wrexham', getting it through to the Championship and, perhaps ultimately, the Premier League.

"You'd be stunned how many investors we had during Covid who had seen Welcome to Wrexham and Ted Lasso, and said 'I want to buy a team'."

Correct term would be 'doing an Ipswich' seeing as we were picked up in League 1 and got through to the Championship and are now Premier League.

Starmer deliberately made sure we weren't mentioned because we beat Arsenal in Cup Final.
