Under new management

Sorry for the misleading title, FCC is not under new management (except for the MD). But that got me thinking. FCC are bound to lose the franchise in 2015 - very few operators manage to keep them. So who should take over? I think Wrexham and Shropshire should. Since Beardy Branson's Virgin Trains tried to force them out of business, word has been getting out that W&S are actually quite good - nice staff, cheap tickets etc.
