We may never know but sure seems like they are fronting their own cash.

well, the Wrexham players wear jerseys with TikTok all over them, so i would assume they have some money in with the club.

I have to assume FOX is a big partner. I assume Rob is a very minority partner.

It's a fine show and I like seeing the inner workings of a club. But as I said before, I have to think fans of other smaller clubs in the UK must detest/loathe Wrexham (and yes, I know that they did that small bit in one episode from a few fans of other teams saying they support them and what they are doing).
