Plaid Cymru has launched a petition to ensure funding to develop the Kop end of the Racecourse as part of a wider masterplan for the Mold Road Gateway.
The petition expresses support for the Racecourse Regeneration to create a 5,000-seater stand with appropriate conferencing and exhibition facilities on Crispin Lane. 
But this will come to nothing if it's not properly funded. Similar projects in the Cardiff and Newport areas have been supported by the Welsh Government, which recently spent £22 million on a 50% stake in a Conference Centre near the Celtic Manor Hotel.
Cllr Marc Jones, Plaid Cymru's councillor for the area surrounding the Racecourse, said:
"As a season-ticket holder and local councillor for this part of Wrexham, I want to see this development succeed. If done properly, it will transform the derelict area behind the Kop and provide additional income for the football club for years to come.
"To make this a reality, Plaid Cymru is calling on the Welsh Government and other parties to stump up the necessary funding to regenerate the Racecourse and build a 5,000-seater stand with new conferencing and exhibition facilities."
Please support our petition to the Welsh Government to ensure it's funded properly and is not another project that gathers dust on the shelf:
