Transfer deadline day

[Master D]

We basically had two squads last season. Feel free to leave out the bit about us still making a 200k profit though.

And the millions Fenty is still owed. Let's not get into that either.

 

[Master D]

The rumoured fees are:

Tozer - 200k
Hayden - 75k
Jones - 50k (Although PP said he was a free transfer)
Palmer - 350k
O' Connor - 350k
Hyde - No idea?!

So around a Million plus whatever Hyde was.

Hayden was double that at least IMO.

 

[Son of Cod]

And the millions Fenty is still owed. Let's not get into that either.

He's owed probably about 500k now. You also realise that was just the balance of what he's put into the club over the course of the last 2 decades, right? How many other clubs are held to ransom by their previous owners over this? It can't ever be claimed that Fenty bankrolled us as he'll have taken everything and more out of the club that he put in when we've paid off that last bit. Let's hope the Hollywood lads never start referring to the money they've put into Wrexham as "benign loans" as it'll be curtains.

Yeah that one stayed undisclosed, to be honest, we only really know the Palmer and Tozer ones for sure....and that's because they was reported by the bitter clubs that lost them

We could go on forever about the economics during Fenty’s reign but we rarely spent beyond our means. When we did, he just added that onto the total that we ‘owed’ to him. Think at one point it was upwards of £3 million. To get that back, he penny-pinched throughout the whole club and took out 200k each season that could’ve been spent on improving the club. As a final hurrah, he made the new guys pay almost £2 million for the club, asked for £1.5 million of his ‘investment’ to be paid back, not taking away the 200k donation he filched from the Trust 10 years ago to stop him selling Liam Hearn. With players sales of about 600k in the summer, plus up to maybe 500k of Dembele money, a final payment of 500k that owners agreed upon will occur this season and hopefully we can now look forward to actually investing decent money into the club.

For what it's worth (which to us, is a lot), they have promised that no money will be borrowed against the club and it will remain debt free....a few quotes from the mission statement:

"Promise to use our resources to grow the exposure of the club. Of course, this would be in concert with protecting the heart and spirit of a community-led historical icon. But why can't the third-oldest club in the world have a global appeal?"

"Provide comprehensive financial support for the manager and his coaching team. Build a sustainable model which will attract the best players and best staff to the Racecourse Ground."

"Ensure that when the day comes that we leave the Club, it will be in a better position than it is today."

Wrexham fans seem happy enough with their window, I’m fairly relieved as it’s not quite been as busy as billed by rob McElhenney - was expecting seriously daft stuff when he said January would be fun, or whatever it was. So we’re all happy. Suspect you probably got priced out of a lot of your targets, which of course is always the problem when someone knows you have money.

 

[Gladders]

Grimsby paid £2.84 million on wages last year.Goodness me that cannot be right on your gates?

That's total wages not just players and it was on gates of zero and still make 200k profit. Plus that was the previous regime and we went down from it!

Are yous still going in for Challinor in the summer.

 

[EnglishRed]

Hayden was double that at least IMO.

Yeah I read 150k for Hayden and 50k for Hyde. Not substantiated though.

 

[Y Ddraig Goch]

Are yous still going in for Challinor in the summer.

Don't remember that one, I know a lot wanted him last summer and there was some annoyance when he went to Stockport as PP looked to be struggling then.

As mentioned by a few, Parkinson needs to win the league or be unlucky in the playoffs to avoid a failed season but considering we've only just signed the key players in two important positions then I'd be surprised if he isn't given another go at the start of next season.

Nobody takes Hollywood Red seriously mate, not even the other Wrexham fans.

 

[GTFCfish]

Did anyone actually lose any key players this month?

Yes, AFC Wimbledon and Burton Albion.

He's Ryan's eyes and ears on here. He's been reporting back to HQ since joining here.

I'm pretty sure he's either The Rock or Danny DeVito

 

[MattRheadFingersDonuts]

Did anyone actually lose any key players this month? Apart from that Campbell at Woking I can't think of anyone who went to the League.

Ben House, Eastleigh to Lincoln.

 

[TheShayWay]

Good transfer window for us. No departures. 3 arrivals.

 

[Magpie Mike]

The rumoured fees are:

Tozer - 200k
Hayden - 75k
Jones - 50k (Although PP said he was a free transfer)
Palmer - 350k
O' Connor - 350k
Hyde - No idea?!

So around a Million plus whatever Hyde was.

Anyone signing Hyde should only pay him per game played.
Won't cost much!!
