Think the opposition tonight is a big factor, like it or not. The fact that they've spent relatively big money, had shed loads of publicity and are unbeaten makes a significant difference. If it was Boreham Wood the feel good factor would have helped but not to this extent

We don't freeze under the new era Davec, unless we get Wrexham in the trophy final again!  


Gosh that was freezing that day wasn't it!

The coldest I have been is Buxton away in the FA trophy, i literally watched a discarded cup of rain water freeze into ice before my very eyes

Yeah like it or not the team now known as "Ryan Reynold's Wrexham" have had huge publicity, and they are spending big, it will have been a factor in casual fans deciding to come and watch.

Torrential rain forecast all day (yellow weather warning). Hope the game will be on and that it doesn't affect our fast flowing football. Really looking forward to tonight's match.

Can't see that to be honest.  I'd be amazed if anyone had bought a ticket because Wrexham are owned by Ryan Reynolds et al.  It's not like he's going to be playing up front for them.  They've signed Paul Mullin and Ben Tozer, albeit very good players and on mega money at this level, but it's not Ronaldo and Messi they've signed.  

Potentially a bit of an early promotion battle feel to it, arguably similar to when we played them Xmas time in 2012/13 but that's about as much of an influence the opposition have over this.  For me it's down to the fact we've made a very good start to the season (which we rarely do), there's a genuine thirst for live football after over a year without it, word has got out that the last two home games have been good entertainment (great in the case of the Barnet game) plus the added bonuses of the food options in the corners, but in the whole it's the feel good factor generated with the new regime.  

My first proper season was the Div 3 promotion season of 1990/91, I can't remember a feel good feeling like this ever before.  Not through any of the promotions or great escapes.  This is something special.

Several factors here creating these large crowds…

In order:
One and a half seasons of no crowds allowed.
Great start to the season.
Wrexham have a good team.
The new owners creating a feel good factor.
Ease of ticketing.
Better facilities.
Better team!

I will be interested to see if this momentum can be kept up with crowd numbers and results.
I really hope so because it is absolutely brilliant and I am BUZZING,




Think you’ve missed one factor out.

The old owner is no longer with us 😀😀😀😀😀

The wife was going away for a girly weekend.
I jokingly remarked  'I don't know whether to spend it watching porn or watching football'
'you may as well spend it watching porn' she replied
That's understanding darling what makes you say that? I asked

She said 'Well you already know how to play football'
