Stormzy owns a house and recording studio in Kingswood. We could have been his near neighbour but that fell through and we moved here to Walton on the Hill. Plenty footballers live there.
Saw Croydon Athletic two or three times about fifteen years ago, including one against Hastings United, managed by Neville Southall! Crappy part of Croydon but not a bad setup.

Ovbiously we've played them a few times in their previous form.
I believe Tommy Kavanagh is their youth team coach.

Superb. So, down the line when they're in the same league as us, our fans can tear their hair and rend their clothes about the vast wealth and unbeatability of another-Wrexham.
Or close to.

It probably cost Stormzy half a day royalties and Zaha a days wages to buy the club.

Yeah, but they'll put millions in and we won't be able to compete...
Ok, I'll stop, now.

They are actually based in Thornton Heath and i would have thought there was little room for expansion on their existing site.

Main problem is access down that pot hole riddled alley.
I used to work with their secretary and his brother, who is chairman was on 5live this morning.

Secretary Peter Smith sadly died earlier this year. I wonder if chairman Paul will still be involved in the club? I hope so, thet were/are real football men.

Oh no. I didn't know that. I don't go on Facebook anymore so lost touch.
That's very sad. He was a lovely guy.
