Devs,

So you are saying you prefer Holohan to Clifton in midfield?

Read carefully, I said Bramwell and Braithwaite at 'some point', not now, only when we are safe from relegation.

Fair enough, you're also entitled to your opinion. I personally just don't understand why you'd bother going if you're just going to leave early. Seems like a waste of your money and time.

And if you're interested in the players performing better than I doubt that denting their confidence by streaming out early will do much to help that. But as I say, just my opinion.


Again, FFS, there was a full crowd, cheering them from the start that had no effect on the the way we played, that was down to poor quality players who could not defend, had difficulty passing to their own players and created diddly squat up front.

If the players feel let down by fans leaving early they should be looking at themselves as to why some of them were crap.

What amazed me was that one of the main protagonists threw his arms in the air when he was subbed off!

I am not a great fan of Clifton, a fact I’ve posted on many occasions over the years, however, I actually agree with you in regards he is a better option than either Green or Holohan as he’s actually mobile and fit. None of the three has a good first touch or can pass a ball, how the hell did the club get into such a position?, but at least HC would give us energy in there. That said I was not impressed with Smith but it was against Donny where nobody came out too well. Wood actually looked very good on the ball yesterday but lacks experience and physicality but needs to get a lot more minutes in the second half of games. Andrews should start before Green and it’s a pity we haven’t really been able to see what Ainley has to off as his experience could be invaluable and he has to be an improvement on Green.

Up front I would go with Rose and Wilson for experience and hopefully better finishers than their rivals.

Finally, don’t share the accolades for Hume who to me is decent but like Glennon is woefully lacking in pace hence he was hooked yesterday. He’s ok going forward but his delivery is not up to Glennon’s standards so any improvement is marginal and we need more athletic and talented full backs next season.

I thought Andrews looked decent when he came on yesterday it it’s hard to tell as at 3 - 0 up Wrexham weren’t really getting stuck into him.

We need to take each game as it comes. The league table doesn’t lie we’ve been  poor but hopefully we can improve enough to stay clear of the bottom 2. Didn’t expect anything yesterday  so nothing gained but we are slightly in a better position than 5 weeks ago only when it’s confirmed when are safe can we really relax and build Barrow next week so another toughie. Missing Rose so hopeing he’s in for Bradford then we will see UTM

Wrexham fans say that they were very good yesterday.  Ratings of 2 x 9s, with 4 or 5 players getting 8s out of 10.

Cannon got a 9 from many posters, as MOTM and probably player of the season.

We were maybe a tad unfortunate that he had his shooting boots on.

A standard league 2 goalkeeper saves both of them.

I'm saying that, without a massive windfall or a serious level of investment, we need to accept that our ceiling is much lower than many want it to be. Who's JD by the way?
