As the dust settles on Wrexham’s record-breaking season, the debate continues over whether it was a success. Spoiler alert: it was—but there’s still a natural desire for it to have been even better. About two points better, in fact.
Wrexham were playing non-league soccer just three years ago, and that rapid rise cannot be ignored in the bigger picture. To frame a season in which they finished seventh in the Championship as a failure is both negligent and misguided. Yet the Red Dragons are far removed from that National League side, and with increased exposure and spending come heightened expectations.
