Tuesday night was magnificent, in so many ways. It was the perfect start to a trilogy which could define our season. Despite Chesterfield’s spectacular loss of form, this was still a formidable test. They fielded seven of the players who faced us in August, which remains the only time this season that our opponents have looked better than us, and that includes three games against … Continue reading One Down, Two To Go
Was last Tuesday the best performance Wrexham have managed under Phil Parkinson? Quite possibly: this was a sumptuous display which laid bare exactly what the manager has been looking to achieve with this squad. I’m bemused by claims that Parkinson is too defensive, an accusation levelled at the manager by a disgruntled minority as recently as our last home game. We scored three goals in … Continue reading Was This Parky’s Best Win?
Rob McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds made their Wrexham debuts on Tuesday, and were treated to the quintessential Wrexham experience of recent years: heroic failure. Andy Davies asked a great question on #askwxm during the commentary: which match video should be given to the owners to enjoy the sensation of being a Wrexham fan. Naturally we focussed on the positives: the 1997 FA Cup run and … Continue reading Welcome to Wrexham!
To say I’m deflated would be quite an understatement. I felt invested in last season’s squad, but the process of dismantling it has begun. There’s no room for sentiment in football, and if the budget for next season is well spent, we’ll be tilting at the title. Still, I’m sad to see the back of this side, which attacked with increasing brio as the season … Continue reading The Bitter End
How are you feeling? Excited? Nervous? Try not to worry too much: Saturday’s game is an exciting hit to nothing. It’s a chance to start the revolution early. It’ll be tough. Dagenham and Redbridge are in magnificent form, and if the season lasted another couple of weeks I suspect they’d capitalise on their fine form by getting into the play-offs. While last weekend’s results mean … Continue reading Seize The Moment
Dean Keates has often spoken of the importance of developing an unbeaten run, and as he won multiple promotions during his playing career, he should know what’s required. In a season which has seen clubs around the world struggle to find consistency in remarkable conditions, we seem to have settled into something approaching consistency. If it’s not a flash in the pan, we might just … Continue reading Slow and Steady Wins This Race

We finally got our first home win over Dagenham last season, at the fourth attempt. Stuart Beavon’s 74th minute strike separated the two sides a quarter of an hour after he’d come off the bench to replace Cole Stockton. Prior to that we’d lost two and drawn one of our home games against The Daggers. Our first clash was in the season we were relegated … Continue reading PREVIEW | Wrexham AFC v Dagenham & Redbridge
