I would say its good dion is finished Baxter not interested iredale only a squad player tomo good money Collins lazy 

Not sure if good or bad and we won’t know till season starts but at the moment not sure the team we could put out is as strong as that one. 

[Eddie]

I didn’t think at the end of the season that Baxter, Santos and GT would be playing for clubs 2 leagues above Collins.

Funny old game.

[Pablo]

Class that from "Thomo" - Really nice of him to slow down his talking, so half the Town can understand.

It's lost ont'other half, All Rayguns support Da Reds.

Strange one, a step up in league, but going to a much smaller, but well financed club. Not sure he will be a fixture.

Sounds like a back handed compliment that . Let’s be honest it’s a step up at the moment all round for him higher league better wages could be in the prem in the next 12 months expanded staduim  on the cards so there attendance will be a lot higher what’s not to like from a players perspective

The best deal ever for BWFC.

It's not near Gary Madine levels

He's wounded.

[Leyther_Matt]

Best of luck to him. One hell of a journey for him, but I think a change of scene will suit him. Obviously not a player of the same level, but feels a bit like when Nolan left when you just knew he needed a fresh start. The Wrexham circus will certainly be a different one for him, but you’d think Parky is the right man to look after him in that sense. And £1.2m for a kid plucked from the North West Counties is one hell of a profit.

Might be a idea to still register him though then if he is fit before end of Jan we have the option of selecting him it looks like we will have plenty of squad places 

Why? Leave the place vacant, until we need it.

[Tombwfc]

Do Longridge get a sell-on?

Yeah but Madine didn’t bully him / put red socks in the kit wash like GT did

The lads hit the jackpot. Get to play / train with a championship club and also mix with celebrities from Hollywood. We can take the piss all week like but that’s a belting life he’s got for a season or 2 

[onefinfrandsen]

Good luck to the lad he deserves this move, still think about that performance against Luton in the cup replay last year, he was the best player on the pitch. Finding that form and consistency in the next level will be the challenge for him, hope he does well. Good luck GT.

[DaveTheRave]

Wish him all the best. He was an alright player for us with a great attitude and always gave 100%.

Hopefully the money helps us improve the team.

Let's not get carried away.

There's no doubt the Hollywood twins have done a lot for the club but the current development of their 'kop' will take the capacity from 12,600 to 15,000.

Their pie-in-the-sky dream is for further staged development to a 55,000 capacity stadium. Which is a pipe-dream.

[Big E]

The folk I used to work with at Airbus have really embraced it. All got season tickets now. Families fully kitted out. A few years in the upper leagues and I can see their demand growing. The uni there is getting bigger and can see that adding to weekly numbers. Doubt 55k u less they get to the prem but can see em pushing 25/30k comfortably in the end 

[batton carrier]

Best of luck to George. I liked him but I think it is the right move at the right time for him and us. SS needed to clear the club out and we have to trust his judgement if nothing else it is going to be an interesting start to the season .

Exactly, Hollywood stars probably have lots of money but i bet its piffle compared to the sort of money that is required to be around the upper parts of the premier League.

There capable of getting 20 to 30 if they get in the prem there as big as Brentford and Bournemouth so no reason they can’t stay there for a player in league 1 would be mad to turn down even if he doesn’t play much and they go up while he is there the bonus payment will be well worth it

Aye Ryan Reynolds has made millions in business too. Real Estate, Gin Companies and kinds of shit. 

2nd highest paid actor in the world last year etc.

Don't think they're shy of a bob or two.

There's no reason they couldn't reach the levels of Brighton etc
