Blimey. First time I've looked on here since last night and what's the first thread I see?

Criticisms and Worries!!!!

We're top of the bloody league for God sake, just enjoy the moment. I'm sure S&H will have contingency plans in place to replace Neilson.

i can't believe there is a thread of this O_o,

top of the league
beat one of the contenders for a top 5 finish
clean sheet (how many have we had now?!!)
and i believe also a very cracking atmosphere last night helped too well done to everyone who came

let's enjoy this spectacle, we haven't had much to sing about for a while

come on town!!!!!!!!!! UTM!!!!!!!!1


Today we got our team back - town fan leaving Wembley may 2016

We ground out a victory yes, which is fantastic and credit to the players for doing so but that doesn't mean that because we won we should automatically discount our weaknesses last night. At times we rode our luck IMO, for the last 30 mins of the first half Wrexham were in total control; a team with a striker capable of finishing would have really punished us.

I was sat in the Lower Findus towards the Pontoon side and as a poster has already said, Hatton was really poor in the first half for the reasons I stated in the OP and having overheard several conversations around me, others had noticed this weakness as well. To be honest, I don't recall him even making a successful tackle during the game but I'll give him the benefit of the doubt as a previous poster claimed he had. I 100% disagree with people that say he's better than Bradley Wood - no way. Wood is defensively more solid than he is and to be honest I don't think Hatton offers that much more going forward than him.


Up The Mariners!

I bet you'll be sat there on Christmas Day bemoaning the fact of all the expense of the day,  having a go that the turkey hasn't got 4 legs, and switching the lights off on the tree early to save on the leccy bill.

Enjoy the moment, we're top over Christmas and all negative thoughts should be put to one side.

At least until Boxing Day anyway.

Disagree. You can be as good at finishing as you like but if you get no clear cut chances you won't score. They didn't get many crosses in during that period in the first half and generally knocked it around 30 yards from goal without ever threatening to penetrate.

not true - you had that bit extra , and with Pond and Hannah are a better squad than us

in fact- I think you will win the league if you sign those two up and keep them fit

A very small minority I'm sure but a minority that exist sadly.
