Season 25/26 - How are YOUR team going to fare?

[IzzyFook]

So it's an almost new experience for us (Wrexham) fans in the up-coming season in the Championship....we were last at this level 40-odd years ago - football's changed a tad, since!

We will be the ONLY team in the league, that have NEVER played in the top tier of English football. We will do well... in most fans' eyes (including our own...) to not be back in L1 next season.

Who are the fav's for promotion & relegation then...

You'd think the 3 relegated from the Prem would be amongst the favourites to be automatically promoted with the parachute payments they'll get, but as Luton proved, it's not always the case. Conversely, the 3 promoted teams usually struggle to make that massive step-up - as Pompey, Derby & Oxford found out.

Despite all the hype around us, anywhere comfortably around mid-table would be fine by me. Sort out the ground & the rest of it (infra-structure etc...) then build the team...but it doesn't work like that does it?

R&R and the team they've put in place, are ALL about 'momentum'. They have a really valid point. But there's also the argument that you shouldn't run before you can walk!

But what about 'your' team? What are your prospects, and who are you signing? Where do you think you'll end up?

Let's have it......

Big overhaul underway, last season was shocking, but expecting 10 signings this summer to improve the mentality and quality of the squad.

Impossible to guess how we'll do at this stage, nearly going down seems to have given a few heads a wobble though.

Looking forward to going back to Deepdale. Last time I was there was back in the day when Alex Bruce was your main man (...I know - old codger alert )

It's changed massively in the years since...whereas The Racecourse hasn't that much really. Just shows how our paths (& fortunes) have altered in all those years.

Ten players coming in for you, will be a challenge getting them all on same hymn sheet, but you needed them by the sounds of it. Hope it works out better for you next season.

Yeah, that's more my dad's era.

25 years since we played each other, I'd like to go to the Racecourse but imagine it will sell out fast.

Pompey have a good core of a team. Without the ridiculous amount of injuries to our back line I think we'd have been around midtable. What let us down last season was not having a squad good enough to play 3 games in a week at a good level. We were 7th in the league from December to end of the season with a play off home form, but relegation away form. Bishop and Murphy didn't start the season due to injury and surgery. 3 needed in CM as we currently only have 1 champ ready in Dozzell. If they can hit the ground running and we get a starter RW think midtable is very achievable. We then need more depth in the 4 attacking positions.

How quickly the players and coaching staff get to grips with the championship will determine where Wrexham end up. It's a mammoth jump in fitness and strength.

Relegated.

Players and staff not paid March or May’s wages on time. Mays still unpaid at time of writing this. Another embargo looms. The manager will be gone soon.

Chansiri has turned down two offers for the club since the season ended, announced plans to pump millions into facilities, yet can’t pay the employees wages. Truly baffling.

Yeah, reading about your problems this morning... I never knew tbh, and with the wages involved at this level, it's not as if the fans could have a whip-round' to pay the the players/staffs wages (like we had to do sometimes in our darkest days when Hamilton was trying to bust the club)

He sounds a right shyster.....
