    There is a fair chance that Barnsley will be in the same league as Wrexham next year.

    We're currently in the same league as Stevenage and last season the same league as Forest Green Rovers. So exactly what is your point Michael Noz FA...?

    We were once in the same league as Workington and once in the same league as Manchester United. Consider that!!

    I went to Wrexham to watch us in the league, we've played smaller teams in the league since.

    Wrexhams average attendace is nearly 10k, they are a club that has been vastly underperforming for years and due to the cash influx from their owners they are finding their footing again in the leagues.

    Lets not be snobby, shall we?

    Wrexham attendances are very good for the level/s they have played at, but let’s not think they’re a sleeping giant. Perhaps it’s best to gauge a club when they are going through ‘ordinary’ or mundane spells. Of course the Hollywood factor helps massively. Without Googling etc, I don’t think or remember them being a ‘well supported’ club when they were a regular football league club. Nothing against them and things look really good for them at the moment, but I get the feeling it may well all be relatively short-lived.

    Does that make them a ‘big club’ then. I describe a big club as having regular attendances of 30.000 plus. Like I’ve already said they’ve done very well and could go far, but imo it will all be relatively short-lived

    bad example, given the money ploughed in to them and the ongoing money publicity spinning, it's only a matter of time before they pass us.

    Consider this the slip
    That brought me to my knees, failed
    What if all these fantasies come
    Flailing around
    Now I've said too much

    Me too. We played them in our first season back in the 2nd Division but I'm guessing they were relegated that season as I don't remember us playing them again for years.
