Another little bonus for you! In a finance special Liam and Andy are joined by Dan Plumley senior lecturer in football finance at Sheffield Hallam University for a fascinating deep dive into Wrexham AFC’s record-breaking finances.

We delve into the £33.3m turnover, the £14.8m losses and the amazing 57.7% rest of the world revenue. And we ask the big questions such as are Wrexham effectively a Premier League business, does being such a global brand carry risks and is a £70m Kop Stand the only way we can go. We examine the private equity boost from Apollo investments and the £3.8m lost when a broker went bust.

We also look at the £4m paid to Ryan Reynolds’ and Rob Mac’s marketing companies, plus the £2m+ given to promote Welcome to Wrexham and ask is that money well spent.

It’s a fascinating insight into some astounding accounts
