Wrexham are now making a generous donation to the Sheffield Wednesday Supporters Trust.

Sheffield Wednesday fans have been protesting owner Dejphon Chansiri during each fixture their side has played this season.

However, Wrexham came under fire after it was revealed that they would not allow Owls fans travelling for their fixture to bring banners into the Racecourse Ground, as they were considered to carry ‘political connotations’.

But after pressure from fans and the Wrexham Supporters Trust, the Red Dragons released a statement on the protest issue, confirming they would indeed be able to hang a banner in the away end of their match.

Following that unwanted press, Rob Mac announced a gesture to the Sheffield Wednesday Supporters Trust.

It was stated that any profit made on the Dragons’ gold shirts from last season during a specific period would be donated to the SWST, and the fee raised has now been confirmed.

Wrexham drew 2-2 with Sheffield Wednesday on Saturday, August 23.

The home side went 2-0 up in the first half but were forced to settle for a point.

In the aftermath of the result, there was some confusion regarding Wrexham’s donation to Sheffield Wednesday Supporters Trust.

However, the WST have now confirmed the amount that the SWST will be receiving in a statement on X/Twitter.

They wrote: “The Trust are delighted to report that the @SWFCTrust are to receive £37,500 from the profit of the Golden shirt sales.

“In addition we are proud to announce that the Club is matching this amount with a separate donation to the Wrexham Maelor Hospital Diolch by fawr iawn I bawb!”

Will Sheffield Wednesday be taken over

Wrexham fans will be all too familiar with what a bad owner can do to a football club.

Unfortunately for Sheffield Wednesday supporters, a potential takeover does not appear close.

As per the BBC, Chansiri has turned down two offers to sell the club in recent months.

Those offers are understood to have been somewhere in the region of £30m-£40m.

However, the Thai businessman is thought to want around £100m to part ways with Sheffield Wednesday.
