Preview | Wrexham AFC v Bromley

Dean Keates has positive memories of welcoming Bromley to The Racecourse. His first win as manager came at their expense in October 2016 as Shaun Harrad and Gerry McDonagh scored the goals in a 2-1 win. Keates would clear his squad out swiftly though, as only two of the players used in that match would still be at the club by the start of next … Continue reading Preview | Wrexham AFC v Bromley

He was brilliant to listen to, so we thought we’d put together the two half time chats as a bumper podcast. The first part is Tuesday’s half time, where Lee answers #askwxm questions, many of which are about the … Continue reading Half Time Show | Two Evenings With Lee Fowler
