Looks like there's commentary this afternoon through the Wrexham website.

That's it, come on U Pilgrims, ship been steadied, 4th game unchanged, Agnew has sparked the midfield (again), they got tonked 4-0 midweek, they also focussed on FL return, great chance boys, go 4 it, nothing to loose, Good Luck & as Young Chubs says safe journeys to all Pilgrims.

3 - 0 now. What a shame for the fans that have made a big effort to go today.

Sounds like we played better after the 3rd goal.

Never mind, now it's time to concentrate on the play offs.
But does sound as though we caused them a few problems.

The attendance was only 1083 (80 visitors), that's really poor for a team in their position in the league.

I hope everyone got home safely as the weather sounded really bad.

I'm not saying yesterdays game is the least commented game ever on patter, but it's definitely up there in the top one, as the late Brian Clough once jested.

The game was effectively over inside 10 mins. We gave them far too much respect and were very naive in the first half hour. They were very clinical and took their foot off the gas at 3 up. Apart from a good spell at 2-0 and towards the end when the pitch has turned into a shallow end of a pool, we rarely threatened.
The weather was atrocious, fair play to anyone who ventured out to sit/stand in that. Not sure I've been as cold as that at a game for a couple of seasons

Let's hope we get back on it next Saturday if the game is on!

Greetings Wrexham fan here, can I first congratulate the hardy 80 odd of your fans who attended yesterday having travelled myself from North Wales to Lincolnshire I know what  horrible journey it is. One of you mentioned the attendance and thought how poor it was considering our league position, our average this season is under 5k which up up from last season. As many have said the game was over by 30 mins, you play some nice football but don’t seem to have much punch up front. Although we made 5 changes from the midweek team it was a premature strong line up. Good look for the rest of the season still don’t understand why your not in the National South

Because we are in the Conference North. There are a few teams in the North who are further south than us...

I still cannot understand why your still in an English league.

It’s a long story, you would be surprised how many English clubs played in the Welsh cup. But taking my original point you must be at a certain disadvantage with the travelling you have to do compared to other clubs.

I think travelling would be similar for us North or South,
Personally I prefer to be in northern, better supporters and more rivalry.

A Few years back we played our Boxing Day and New Years day (Derby) against Lowestoft

Wish we could have a midlands league resurrected that was always better.

Because there's plenty of teams further south that us!
Many of them in the conference north
Defense had been solid despite all the changes, which has been a nice surprise but lack punch up top
If we can be more creative up there we'll get a playoff place
