Tensions are rising at the Racecourse Ground as a fresh off-field dispute threatens to derail one of Wrexham’s most anticipated redevelopment projects. Former club owners Alex Moss and Andy Roberts have reportedly warned they could halt progress on the Kop Stand development amid claims that a final payment agreement has not been fully honoured by current owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney.
The Kop Stand redevelopment has long been viewed by supporters as a symbol of Wrexham’s remarkable resurgence under Hollywood ownership. Promised as a modern upgrade that would increase capacity and enhance the matchday experience, the project has carried huge emotional and practical importance for fans eager to see the club continue its rapid rise through the divisions.
However, concerns have now emerged following suggestions that Moss and Roberts, who retain certain financial interests linked to the land and agreements surrounding the stand, are unhappy with delays relating to an outstanding payment. Sources close to the situation claim that a scheduled meeting to resolve the issue has yet to take place, further fuelling uncertainty.
While no official legal action has been confirmed, the threat alone has sparked anxiety among supporters, who fear the dispute could stall construction timelines or complicate future planning. Club insiders insist that discussions are ongoing and remain confident a resolution will be reached without jeopardising the long-term vision for the stadium.
For Reynolds and McElhenney, whose ownership has been defined by ambition and transparency, this represents an unexpected distraction during a crucial period on and off the pitch. As Wrexham continue to push forward competitively, fans will be hoping cooler heads prevail and the Kop Stand project stays firmly on track rather than becoming another obstacle in the club’s extraordinary journey.
