Hit the nail on the head here, boys. For years, when people have asked where I'm from, I'd have explain Wrexham's proximity to Liverpool and Manchester but you've well and truly put us on the map. It's now something to be proud of when people ask where I'm from ❤

In a world full of division, I think this is what makes this story so compelling. How one man, sitting in lunch room watching football, could start a chain of events that has had such a positive affect on so many lives is amazing!

That was an amazing interview, and the ending was honestly emotional - almost brought me to tears hearing Humphrey talk about how it's the greatest joy of his life being associated with the club and the positive impact that the club has made on the people of the town. For what he's accomplished, he's still so humble and has such great perspective. And Roger is such a great interviewer. The perfect balance of humor, knowledge, emotion, and empathy. Really REALLY enjoyed every second of that. Courage.

18:50 - Escape from the National League last year indeed. The crowd response then seemed far more relief and emotional joy over having left a league having been stuck in for over a dozen years. This season, the crowd response seemed like actual excitement that the team got promoted twice in a row now and are back in League One.

You're right, this year felt much more relaxed and less frantic than last year. In fact, talking of 1978, it felt a bit like the Rotherham match as we knew we would be going up, it was just a question of when, and we'd had the trauma of the season before. Oh, and we were on the pitch more than once then - it's old Welsh tradition. Now back where we were when the rot set in.

Season has not finished yet and they've decided Manager of the Year and Players of the season . I'm a Wrexham fan , with play off in a fortnight or less surely Doncaster Rover manager should have had they Manager of the year if they win promotion to the likes of Wrexham, Mansfield and Stockport . From 17th end of January to 5 th at present and maybe promotion via play off . They should have waited another couple of weeks until they end of the season . Yes Mullin should have been picked consistant goal scorer

@clj.4874 22 күн бұрын

There no reason why we cant compete at the top end of div one, obviously certain players will have to leave, no time for sentiment, and extra quality brought in, our midfield is in good order, defensively we probably do need a couple of players to replace a couple here who have bene injured on a regular basis, and if we finally get a striker in who can share the goals with mullin, instead of having to solely rely on him as being the only striker who grabs most of the goals up top for us then why not aim high again and go for promotion.

@od9694 20 күн бұрын

Honestly they shouldn't have made a third season yet and left it another few years, absence makes the heart grow fonder and not particularly exciting season only real jeopardy was wether they would be in the playoffs or an automatic spot.
