Not gone to one of the genuine promotion favourites like Birmingham or Huddersfield. A big step up for Wrexham in this league, I can see them upper mid table but no higher this season.
Think I'd rather play for Wrexham over the other two, probably higher wages, bigger crowds, better atmosphere plus being in the documentary plays a part and if they can continue to throw money at players, they've a fairly good chance of going up

Wrexham won't have a bigger budget than Birmingham, or even Huddersfield or us. In L1 they're no longer a big fish, Birmingham averaged 21000 gates last season.
Apparently told Fehervar his wife wanted to stay in London...
As I know it is true, that is why he did not join us. He don't want to left UK without his family. That is why Videoton let him go. I don't want to write it, it is Dobson's business.

Bigger crowds? Their stadium holds less than half of ours! Even Huddersfield's is a full 11k bigger, and St Andrews is 2.5x the size!

I liked Dobson but on paper Greg Docherty is the one who’s been a key part of a L1 winning squad and then proven he can do it up a level. Of course reality can be different and he’ll have to show he can be good for us as well, but I’m really not sorry we left this in the past and brought someone new in. Good luck to George except against us

Bums on seats are similar to ours.
There are not many empty seats at The Racecourse.
That's comparing a team with 2 years of success against one with 2-3 years of failure. If/when we start challenging properly, we'll get much bigger gates.
It is a good and valid question to now ask, rather than having guess. Why did Dobson sign a pre-contract for the Hungarian team?
It might be "valid" but it's also pretty pointless as the only real answer is "who knows?" - unless we get it direct from Dobson (who probably wants to forget it ever happened by now) it will just be guesswork.
2 questions. 1, how we as a club allowed our captain and most consistent player to become a free agent 2. why George thought crappy Wrexham was step up -other than ££

Despite all the Hollywood talk, put in perspective Wrexham record fee paid is £350k. Even Joey Jones who retired 1000’s of years ago is still in their top 4 record signings. Charlton just spent a million on a player. . Reynolds certainly isn’t splashing the cash on big money signings.
I think next season will be a reality check and expect them to struggle.
I'm gutted we couldn't unpick a situation entirely of our own making and keep him.
In the end it comes down to money, he was a free agent, Wrexham clearly don't mind shelling out big on their wage bill. Dobbo is definitely a player Phil Parkinson will love as he is literally in the mould of what he was as a player. Hope he gets the flu when they have to play us.
I begrudgingly wish him well, he is clearly a decent bloke and he was an excellent player for us
Not sure why people think Wrexham are rolling in money. Their owners are famous, but I don't personally think they're wealthy enough sustain the amount of investment we know is needed to step it up. They're doing okay at the moment because they're getting good gates off the back of being in the limelight, and maybe some other streams of income, off the back of their owners and the documentary. Maybe the owners could attract a bit more invest as and when the time comes, but that's if they don't start getting bored in the meantime.

Wish him well, gave his all for us and never let us down.
