As I understand max's partner lives darn sarf n wasnt prepared to move.also he wanted a long contract but we only offered a year. Given the contracts we are offering others, it rather suggests we weren't that bothered either way about him staying or going

Quoted from Mendonca1995
Would love to see us go all out and sign cristy pym from Peterborough a very good goalkeeper and everytime I've seen him play against us he's made some ridiculous saves, think Mansfield also in for him, as a back up we're hearing Eastwood and Cartwright unsure on both at this level but for now we so need a quality keeper on board ASAP


Can't see it .

Good keeper

But more a Nigel Clough type signing than a Paul Hurst one

Quite a character off the pitch by all accounts .

Pym would be my number one choice, but I suspect also one I may have to put down as wishful thinking.

Second choice would be Jamal Blackman. Fúcking massive, good pedigree and decent in the shíthousery stakes too, which has to be a top criteria in finding a replacement for Crocombe.

I thought Blackman was quality when he played at BP for Wycombe and thought he’d go on to be no.1 at Chelsea. No idea how he’s been at Exeter, but if you’re going to spend some money then a quality keeper would definitely be a sound investment.

So he managed to get himself sent off? That's what we're looking for!

By all accounts he’s been decent at Exeter, without necessarily having been outstanding. Sounds like he’s been on decent money there however; rumblings of between £4k and £5k a week, which he sure as shít wouldn’t be getting here.

That may preclude him as a realistic target, but you never know.

The penalty save-VAR would rule it out he was a good couple of feet off the line  
Good job we don't have it at our level

Just over a year after the playoff final only four of that starting eleven are still at the club. Quite a turnover when you think about it.

Probably par for the course given the way that lower division football works these days. It's unusual to keep a player for more than a few years, really.

I spoke to a Wrexham fan we know through work and noted they hadn't made any signings as yet. He was expecting them to make just perhaps 1 or 2 but keep the bulk of the promotion team which he thought should be strong enough to challenge for promotion again this season. Probably correct, given the amount they have spent!

Yes you are correct. Amazing that this has been achieved without all the nastiness after previous promotion?
