Match Thread Wrexham

Quoted from heppy88

Yep you’re probably right. But we seem conditioned to expect we’ll always be second best.

The opposite is all the 'dream, believe, achieve' dogwater that makes people think if they want something enough they will have it.

Yes, sometimes we'll upset the odds and it's beautiful but mainly things will play out according to the quality of resources/talent that clubs have.

Quoted from MuddyWaters

Who were they?

McNeill was the main target wasnt he? Went to Stevenage to sit on the bench.

Quoted from Mariner93er

Strikers aren't this mythical thing. They exist. It's up to Hurst to allocate funds accordingly to get the right one in. When we're getting to three windows in and we're still missing out on a striker, questions should rightfully be asked. I get some are overly negative on here, but being positive and apologetic for the sake of it is no more productive than they are.

Totally agree with this post, obviously we do not have unlimited finances, but continuously bringing in unwanted,  unheard of fringe players from
other clubs, who quite regularly prove moderate( to be kind), isnt a sensible  way of handling your budget IMO, theres no doubt that Hurst does
bring good players to the club, but they have been outnumbered by some right duffers IMO, you  usually have to pay for quality, particularly
forwards, one transfer fee and wages for one goalscorer would be paid for by not signing mediocrity in numbers.
Like most, i didnt expect a result today regardless of injuries and with the brutal set of early season fixtures i think we have done well to
accrue the points we have , but with the points lost from winning positions it is also very frustrating.
On the injury situation, we  always seem to have so many, who are then missing for strangely long  periods,i know injuries are a fact of life,
but  whether is it something with the training regime, or the medical care they receive aftterwards, who knows?
or the medical care they then receive?

Naive to keep seeing we had a lot of possession so that’s a positive Teams like Wrexham are happy to let you have possession and go direct when they would otherwise have had their share of possession.

You watching the same game as me it was a mis match they f****d about last 15 mins couldn't get a touch it could of been 6 or 7 to them

Flipping heck. Some ridiculous hissy fits on here tonight. I feel for fans who went and we're all disappointed with the result, but the lack of realism is bizarre. If you're down to the bare bones up top due to injuries and defend poorly in a game against a team which cost many multiples of your own, you have to just accept defeat and move on. Let's aim for revenge in the return game at BP in March, hopefully with a fully-fit squad including perhaps another attacker or two signed in January.

Oh, and stop replying to denni, FFS. Don't feed the trolls.

My regrets are supporting a team that most people expected to lose today.
My regrets are that whilst our supporters say consolidation Wrexham say promotion.
My regrets are that we say look good, Wrexham say win.
My regrets are we should have won this and should have won that, but we didn’t!!
And that’s what counts!!!

I don't regret us beating them in that play-off game
I don't regret a long term plan , if that involves a period of consolidation , if that's for the greater good of the club
I don't regret going to Weymouth , Solihull or Dorking

But glad I'm not going back  


We can compete with most of league 2 , when our first 11 is fit and firing - I suspect how many of the 46 games we can get them on the pitch together will dictate how well we do ; beat Crawley next week and we will be back in the top 10 . Close to the play-offs .

To think we can compete with the top 4 or 5 teams with half of our team missing is rather fanciful .

This is what hurst gets us with a milion to spend  crap.. Wouldnt trust him to do the shopping for half time tea and oranges .. Pathetic . Who ever puts their trust in him needs to get their bumps felt  starting with Stockwood and Pettit .

Quoted from denni266

What will hurst say after the game .. They are a very good side  bla bla bla. Round hairy things ...Try looking  at the truith  we are crap because of the crap you got in the doors and the way you set them up nearly every week  Utter crap

Wow you are an angry little child, aren't you!

Sounds like what you should actually regret is choosing to support a team with the stature of Grimsby Town and pinning yer’ happiness on them!
