And I hope you don't take this the wrong way, but unfortunately, happy clappers like yourselves can't see what's plainly evident with your heads so far up Hurst bottom

Quoted from mimma
Just a bit of perspective,  Wrexham have let in 10 goals in two home games. Listening to some on here you would think we have as well


And scored 8 must be bloody boring being a Wrexham fan

I bet there fans are all on their forum saying if only we had Paul Hurst as manager.

I don't think that many are 'happy clappers ' .

More of a realisation of where we find ourselves .

Do I love Paul Hursts footballing style ?

Not particularly

Do I see it giving us a solid season ?

Absolutely ,with a decent  outside chance of the play-offs .

I think there is more to come from the current group , in terms of good football , but to think a Hurst team is ever going to play like Barcelona or even Mansfield is wishful thinking IMO .

If we get through these first 10 with a few wins , draws and defeats it's a reasonable start - if the following 10 games we don't put a few of these perceived strugglers to the sword it's the time to ask questions , as we have got better players than them and should win a good few games .

He does, once again today instead of killing off a team at home while we were clearly on top with our high press and attacking style (which he has in him, we all saw in last time he relegated us to the conference) which we were for those first 20 minutes, he had us drop deep once agains to "DeFeNd tHe 1 NiL" and let them back in. Instead of going at teams for the kill he bends over drops his pants and lets teams have their way, it was the same in his first stint and it's the same in the second. Don't get me wrong he finds absolute gems of players Conteh and Rodger already look like player and young player of the season, but he has the tactical sense of a WW1 general, one plan over and over again.


Christ almighty you do talk utter drivel. When i think you cant talk any more bollox you go and surprise me. There comes a time when you have to acknowledge that we played a much better team. Nothing to do with tactics -  Buckley often use to do it (ask your dad) and it didnt turn out too badly with him. Clough has had four seasons in this division to get them playing like that and I can assure you that wasnt always the case. They have made steady progress getting to this point with many changes of personell. I expect us to do the same. And by the way we took a point off them.

Possibly a win win all round today. Pick up a point, don't get beat, and at the same time Mansfield lay down a marker of what we need to be to have a chance of promotion. Two weeks of the window left, Hurst has got a bit of budget left and we've got a chairman that would like to get out of this division as quickly as possible..

Can anyne explain to me the logic of playingRose up front to knock it on when there is no-one there to knock it onto.It  was not skill that prevent us gettin all 3 points but tactics. if Rose is going to be used in the way he was today, he needs someone alongside him.


Give a man a fish and you feed him for a day,teach a man to fish and you give him an excuse for him to escape from the wife and kids for the weekend and drink lots of beer.

I’m a long, long way off being a happy clapper but, please try and be realistic! There are several new players who have improved us with a fully fit Pyke and Wilson to come. Hopefully we get a couple of others too - a new left back, maybe a centre back and a goalscorer would be great.

As far as the manager is concerned, I’m not up his bottom, I didn’t wildly celebrate when he came back. But he’s earned the right to build a new team and the football is already better this season. Give it a chance.
