I wanted an American Lionel Messi but the season was better then I could imagine, so I'm happy less people complained. Also is there a way The Board can vote Scott Brown a pay raise I know if I were Manchester United I might consider inviting him to the Scrooge McDuck money vault.

As an American I feel a kinship with Scott Brown and I feel that I am uniquely qualified to keep him (working for peanuts) excited to be at wrexham. I promise to keep season ticket prices at reasonable levels to gouge the away supporters coming to the racecourse ground and keep embezzlement at manageable levels.

I am throwing my hat in the ring! As an American I know how we can leverage the story of Scott Brown to the masses in the states. I'm seeing the next MLS All Star game vs Wrexham. Also I have a unique cultural perspective to keep Scott Brown working for peanuts keep Manager Brown with the club long term. I shall keep embezzlement to acceptable levels. As for the name of the stadium I will spend all of the off season bothering Peter Jones until we can get a sponsorship for the Dragons Den.

No. Bad idea. Really bad idea. Never get Alan Sugar involved in the running of your club, unless you really like mediocrity, terrible managers, worse players, constant faux pas, legal disputes and everything done in a cheap and tacky way.

Yeah the Sectarianism is awful, but Rangers can be just as bad replacing British and Protestant with Irish and Catholic. I just love the idea of a 6 year old as the capo of the fan section for some reason. I'm an American Arsenal supporter so I'm fully okay with being wrong on all this as I have no context beyond what I read and see.

Problem is that people have been saying that for the last decade or so. The US has shown improvement, but if there's a whole generation of awesome footballers just waiting out there in deepest Nebraska, I haven't seen any evidence of it yet.

I'm going to be disappointed if the USMNT doesn't come knocking down the line. Also, is there a chance that Scott Brown could spend his twilight years trying to legitimize the MLS? Seems amusing imagining a demented Scott Brown who barely gives a poo poo turning something like the Columbus Crew into an MLS megabastard. After he hands off newly megabastard Wrexham to coach-in-waiting Justin Bailey of course.

The problem is that besides your three designated players there is a very strict salary cap in MLS so true megabastardom is impossible.

What did Arsenal do to your mom Aj_Impy? Why do you hate them so?

Arsenal has finished over Spurs which I'm assuming aj is a supporter of for 19 years in a row. Both teams play in north London and despise each other. Spurs see Arsenal as invaders to north London who have plastic fans and all the money. Whereas Arsenal sees Spurs as simply jealous of their success and them being a bunch of assholes into the bargain.

Edit I have a horrible fear we are going to have a Chelsea season where we get close in a bunch of competitions but never actually win anything.

Not to horribly derail things but I don't see woolwich/royal arsenal to just arsenal as abandoning their name. And yeah the move to highbury sucked but to call them worse then franchise fc is unfair. There were no people at the old place but to move districts in London would be preferable to not existing.

LionYeti

The other reason arsenal vs spurs is particularly bitter is that there's been only one season since 1950 that they haven't been in the same division so the derby is renewed every single season.

I see.

Also, I noticed that Bamford also has 44 goals in a season to be Wrexham's leader. How likely will it be for The Most Electrifying Striker in Europe to break that record considering there's only 38 games in a Premier League season?

Blakout, if you win, you better give Bailey a push or at least give Wrexham more competition in the Prem.

EDIT: With all the cards and fouls we have, is Wrexham technically the dirtiest team in the game? Yeah I know that some if not many of those cards were unjustified but in the record books people won't remember that. I think.

My boon is more internationally minded though it could involve Bailey depending on how crazy we can get with the editor

How did you not sell out a Champion's League Quarterfinal game against Real Fuckin' Madrid? Are the tickets really so expensive that the good people of Wrexham and/or northern Wales not want to see you beat one of the most prestigious teams in the world in the biggest club competition in the world?

I have an amazing mental image of a huge group of Real Madrid fans with a map of the UK trying desperately to find Wrexham. It seems to be rather difficult to get to.
