Richard Caborn has held talks with the Premier League

Bruce Clapton said it was important to get everything right before completing the deal in time for the new season.

He echoed sentiments by UK Sports minister Richard Caborn, who has spoken to footballing authorities and is also "hopeful" of a satisfactory outcome.

Wrexham will not be allowed to play their first game against Wycombe on Saturday if still in administration.

On Tuesday, the Department for Media, Culture and Sport in Westminster, confirmed that Richard Caborn had spoken to the Premier League about delays in the deal.

Administrators said there had been "hiccups", complicated by a loan to the new owners by businessman Steve Morgan, who is also a shareholder with Liverpool FC.

This has to be resolved by Friday - we are ready to go but there are still stumbling blocks to overcome Dave Acland, Begbies Traynor

The Premier League say Mr Morgan could be banned from being a director of Premiership club Liverpool FC if he lends Wrexham money.

Property millionaire Mr Morgan was preparing to lend money to a consortium led by local businessman Neville Dickens, who are hoping to buy the club.

Mr Morgan, who launched building firm Redrow, has so far not commented, but it is thought his loan is crucial to the Wrexham deal.

Premier League spokesman Dan Johnson said: "We have rules disqualifying a person acting as a director at one club if he has power to influence another club."

Neville Dickens, the man leading the takeover, said he was expecting a call from the Premier League which he hoped would resolve the problem.

The plans involve redeveloping the Kop end of the stadium

Mr Morgan is now chairman of Harrow Estates, the development company which is the preferred candidate to develop part of the Racecourse ground.

The plans involve a new stand, along with private apartments and student accommodation.

Bruce Clapton, chairman of the Wrexham Supporters Trust, said: "Wrexham will be the first club to come out of administration since new rules were introduced and the football authorities are clearly anxious to ensure that everything is right because it will set a precedent for the future."

Wrexham FC and its administrators have been trying to finalise a deal to bring the club out of administration since May, when the club approved a take-over by the consortium led by car dealer Mr Dickens.

'Political pressure'

Shortly afterward, the Football League granted Wrexham an extension to get themselves out of administration, but the extension does not extend into the new season.

It means the team - due to open their League Two campaign at Wycombe on Saturday - cannot play while they are still in administration.

Dave Acland, from administrators Begbies Traynor, said there were "hiccups," but added they were still ready to complete the deal by the start of the season on Saturday.

He added: "This has to be resolved by Friday. We are ready to go but there are still stumbling blocks to overcome.

"Political pressure is being exerted to try and speed things up."
