'Greedy and out of touch' - Ryan Reynolds & Rob McElhenney-owned Wrexham blasted for charging more than £150 for club hoodie
Wrexham have been branded as 'greedy' and 'out of touch' after charging more than £150 ($183) for a jumper with the club's crest on it.
WHAT HAPPENED? The Welsh outfit tweeted photos of some of their players wearing some new winterwear as part of its Macron Athleisure range. Some of the merchandise costs as much as £180 ($220), with others around the £80 ($98) mark. Now, Rich Fay, a senior football writer at the Manchester Evening News and a co-host of the RobRyanRed — Wrexham AFC Podcast, believes this is a «money grab», and wonders if it may start a worrying trend of pricing out fans. Some have agreed with his sentiment but others say this is spreading division amongst supporters who are very much behind club ownersRyan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney.
£153 for a Macron hoody with the club crest on it.
A greedy, out-of-touch, money grab that undermines the supposed community values being plugged.
Yes, you don’t *have* to buy, that’s not the point. How long until other aspects of the club become so unaffordable?
