Wrexham have gone 8 games without a win for the first time since March 2010, equaling our longest run without a win in the National League (Under Dean Saunders we experienced this twice.) Wrexham had scored in their previous 16 league games, their second best run in the National League. Wrexham have not kept a clean sheet in 12 away games, since February (Borehamwood 2-0), … Continue reading #WxmAnorak | Aldershot Town 1 Wrexham AFC 0
We travel to Aldershot short on clean sheets but having also scored in 16 consecutive league games, our second longest run in the National League. Our last goalless draw was at Aldershot last December, 36 games ago, so perhaps something’s going to give. The last time we kept one clean sheet in our first eleven games was 2007, and we’ve haven’t achieved just one in … Continue reading PREVIEW | Aldershot Town v Wrexham AFC
Does Oswell Start? Jason Oswell wasn’t fit enough to start last Saturday, but surely he’ll return up front tomorrow. When he came off the bench against Sutton United, he brought focus to our attack, holding the ball up well and battling in the air. We have a second line which is full of movement, and playing off Oswell ought to bring them into the game … Continue reading 5 Questions Before Aldershot Town v Wrexham AFC

One for @m_griffiths92 #askwxm for Saturday’s game… what’s the longest we’ve gone without being awarded a penalty? We’re on for going the whole … Continue reading From Famine To Feast
Did you enjoy Mike Fondop’s rather clever overhead kick? Rob Lainton’s penalty save? Well, my favourite moment of the Dover game came in the eleventh minute. There’s some nice build-up play which ends with Kevin Roberts slinging a good cross to the far post, which the centre back Max Schmoll has to head behind for a corner. What I liked about it wasn’t the fluency … Continue reading 4-3-3 Offers More Threat
