    Creating the Wrexham Takeover (it's not in the game)

    in Editors Hideaway

    I've spent the week counting down the hours to start a Wrexham-under-Ryan-Reynolds save only to find that it isn't in the game because - as per Miles' tweet of last night - the deal hasn't actually gone through yet IRL.

    I only have time in my life for one big save, and want it to be a rise to top type save, so despite the temptation of trying Tranmere instead, I'm thinking about trying to create the Wrexham takeover in the pre-game editor.

    Does anyone know what exactly I'd have to do to do that, i.e. who would need to be created, how much money would I need to give them (realistically), whethere there would be any other tweaks (reputation?) I should make? That sort of thing. Perhaps it's too much of a hassle....

    Alternatively, does anyone know how long we would have to wait for it to be patched into the game if, for instance, the deal went through next month? Are we talking straight away, or a painfully long wait for the January transfer update?

    Once the editor is out, you could create them. Otherwise i'm sure someone will create it as a MOD/Add on in the coming weeks. I'd imagine the update would be in the Spring release if all the paperwork is completed by then.

    I can see that the Ryan Reynolds and Rob Elhenney take over has been picked up.

    What I think may slip under the radar is that 1st video they posted. Its a clever move, its basically advertising their main sponsor. What they are saying is 'if you sponsor Wrexham, you'll be endorsed by Ryan and Rob'.

    I'd expect a sizable increase in their sponsorship income.

    To put it into perspective Ryan has 16.8 million twitter followers, Rob has 0.5m. Wrexham have 74k. Liverpool FC have 15.8m and Man Utd 23.7m.

    Sponsors are paying, at that level, for exposure via TV (minimal),  matchday (5-7k maybe?) and people buying and wearing shirts (again fairly minimal). Now throw into that an endorsement from a celeb with a following larger than most premier league clubs. That has to make a significant difference and its no accident the first thing they did in the video was endorse the main sponsor.

    It's possible, but possibly wouldn't be seen for a few months. Might be worth looking at for the spring update? Sponsor's vary across the league and exposure across socials etc but you would imagine's Wrexham's to be the highest in the league this season no doubt about that. Plus i read somewhere about a documentary on the club.

    Can't see this anywhere on the official site, or on any of the last 6 first team games. The club at the moment has 3 keepers

    Harry Isted on loan from Luton, Grant Smith and Lewis Everett.

    Cheers Craig, Wealdstone staff updated. Believe the capacity has been taken from the official National League handbook so I'll look into this if the official number has changed.

    Jake

    Ah if it's from the Handbook then it's probably correct. But i know when i was there in July, the capacity had been uppped to comply with regulations for the National league. I'm speaking to the press officer today to clarify

    the other points and an updated staff list from a programme, as the website hasn't been updated since July 2019 for staff.

    Mike Povey club

    With Wealdstone mostly staff related

    • Richard Johnson left the club
    • Mike Percival is now at Bracknell having left the club in the summer of 2019
    • Mike Povey left the club in the summer of 2019. Now at Salisbury
    • They are missing a 1st team analyst that they hired but nothing on the website to confirm this at present. 
    • Club capacity is 3207, but seems to be shown in multiple places as 3600.
