Wrexham found themselves in a dispute with a local councillor after redeveloping their training base without full planning permission.The Welsh side completed work on their Colliers Park facility in September before getting the green light from North Wales Council.Wrexham have been on an incredible journey since Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney’s takeover in 2021GettyClub chiefs submitted an application for a new pavilion at the site in August, when the building was almost finished.Wrexham later issued a public apology after their construction work was slammed by Gresford community council planning committee chair, Councillor Mike Morris.The local council said that the club’s rise – from non league to the Championship under Hollywood owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney – is ‘no excuse for not following the procedure properly’.Wrexham slammed by local councillorCouncillor Morris hit out at Wrexham’s lack of planning process, aiming some strong words at the second-tier outfit.He said: “I do wish that people would get their act in order and not put in retrospective applications just because it suits you — which, at the end of the day, (is) what it came down to.“You wanted to do it in the summer, and you know the fact you’ve had good results, and you know the football club is doing very well, we all applaud that, but it’s no excuse for not following the procedure properly.“It’s no different to any other retrospective application.“So it will be a matter for members to consider whether they are going to support it or not, and that will come out in the debate.”Once reports are completed on the matter, local councillors will vote on Wrexham’s project.In response, the Red Dragons’ chief strategy officer Aidan Miller offered a ‘sincere’ apology to the committee and local residents.Wrexham could be faced with a long wait to get official permission for their new training facilityGettyMiller said: “The club sought to undertake the works during the summer off-season period, when activity at the site is significantly reduced, allowing construction activity and associated impacts to be managed effectively and within the site footprint.“The club recognises that planning permission would ordinarily be secured before development commences, and we sincerely apologise to the committee and local residents.“Notwithstanding this, throughout the development of the project, the club has sought to act responsibly by selecting an established sporting location, making use of existing infrastructure, and designed a proposal to minimise impacts on neighbouring occupiers and the wider community.“The club has engaged fully and thoroughly with the planning process, including undertaking pre-application consultation, engaging with statutory consultees, and responding to matters raised in relation to parking, highways and phosphate mitigation.”Wrexham’s training ground redevelopment isn’t the only construction work taking place at the club, with a new Kop stand at their Racecourse Stadium also in the works.It is anticipated the new-look Kop would boost their total stadium capacity to 18,000.Construction of a new Kop stand at Wrexham’s Racecourse Ground is underwayGettyPhil Parkinson watched his Wrexham side ship six goals away to West Ham on FridayGettyWrexham dealt Hammer blowWith plenty going on behind the scenes, Wrexham suffered a setback on the pitch on Friday night as they were thumped 6-0 by West Ham.The result leaves Phil Parkinson’s side 16th in the Championship with one win from seven games.This was the club’s heaviest defeat under the Reynolds and McElhenney ownership, leading talkSPORT’s Scott Minto to question the future of manager Parkinson – in his sixth season in charge.Minto said on air: “There’s very, very ambitious owners.“But you have to think about what he’s done and he’s earned the right to right this wrong… but this is a really poor run.“And there are question marks against him maybe with signings, certainly with substitutions, or lack of, tonight.”
