31 August fixtures

It won't last of course but that was hilarious.
Tremendous free kick from Doyle.

 

[Casey]

0-3 at Crawley at half time. To say we haven't turned up is an understatement. Should be 0-6 at a conservative estimate.

Obviously not going to win the game but with a rocket up their arse we may only lose the second half by one goal.

Barnsley look miles better than us.

Casey

Looks like Forster and Swan are on for the second half.

 

[EnglishRed]

Hopefully this continues and we end up comfortable winners. Peterborough fans seem to be incredibly arrogant for.aome unknown reason.

 

[dan_wrexhamafc]

Games opening up now, Cannon off injured. Ricky Jade Jones on.
We score next we win, they get 1 back they'll get 2

 

[Trapdoor]

City handling Bolton quite comfortably today at the "tough sheet" stadium. Great free kick from Doyle, straight out of the Ward-Prowse handbook.

 

[Master D]

We will be up there.

 

[dan_wrexhamafc]

Perfect away performance.
Posh didn't have a shot on target. Mullin should of made it 3. Very impressed, glad Marriott got a goal his work rate so far this season deserves it.

Up the Parky dinosaurs!

 

[Floreat Salopia]

Salop played bloody brilliantly this afternoon, best performance we’ve had for a while that. Tommi O’Reilly and Leo Castledine will be Premier League regulars in the next few seasons, no idea how we’ve managed to get them both but they’re a joy to watch, Orients defence just couldn’t deal with them.

First win since 16th March, forgot what it feels like! Time for a beer I think.

 

[Stocky]

Pleased with a point there. I thought we were the better side overall but our record there is terrible and if we can get some of the injuries back I think we'll be around the top half. We look fairly assured at this level.

Mansfield will fine too. Good energetic, strong side.

 

[Grumpy Grecian]

Dead right there Denz. It didn't!

 

[Luke Imp]

A typical sort of game whenever we come up against Stevenage, which is a battle rather than a football match. 0 shots on target in the first half and one each in the second but won it with a penalty. O'Connor sent off in the 100th minute, which is disappointing.

Stevenage away was Skubala's first game in charge last season and we got a bit beaten up but not today.

 

[Casey]

Ended 0-3. Barnsley sat off and tried to hit on the break. We went very direct. No objection to that if we had forwards who could win the ball in the air.

Most of the game in the second half was towards Barnsley's goal but they probably had four times as many shots as us (I'm being kind to us).

Hats off. Barnsley were miles better than us in every single position on the pitch and, with the way we set up, off the pitch too.

I really enjoyed it christ you have some big lads there think you will be there or thereabouts yep we will be fine

 

[White horse]

Another awful display at Bolton, he needs to go, had a go at Masi last week but it annoys me with his EI EI EI bollocks when I know we will never do anything with Evatt in charge,, this turgidness is making Bolton fans turn on each other, i knew it would turn toxic and it has, we need to get rid before its too late, the thing is its excruciating to watch Bolton, even when we win

 

[Muzzle]

And that is why we love football

Well deserved win that, we offered nothing, but Exeter looked dangerous all match

 

[Conker]

Think it’s fair to say to say Stockport were the better side, we did not create much at all but a point did also feel quite fair at the same time. Mansfield not creating much is a weird one, need to adapt without DKD because everything centrally went through him.

Cloughie got it spot on in post match, it’s a good point, when your watching someone pinging it about the pitch for fun in the opposition line up who was doing it in the premier league not long ago really shows you what we are up against.

 

[Moomin]

Never saw that coming, but what a great win. Just seen the goals and Doyle’s free kick was top drawer.

It makes such a difference having the extra quality on the bench to see games out. Some exciting young players in the squad and also that bit of gamesmanship which we always seem to lack. Love it.

As for Bolton, it does feel like they have a real hangover from the play off final. Evatt reminds me of Lee Clark at Huddersfield who struggled to get a quality team promoted. He must be on a tightrope with so many fans turning against him?

 

[AdamStag]

As expected given the players available stockport were the better side, though had they won it would’ve been a rather fraudulent result, mansfield played bloody well and put in a remarkable performance given what was what available.

One thing i think all fans could agree on is the ineptness of the ref who was hopeless, countless times he failed to act on stockport blatantly holding back our players while we were attacking, while on the flip side his decision to stop the game while we played on while we were a defender down with a ahead injury rightfully infuriated the away support.

Bless challinor though with his antics, one day he’ll beat clough.

 

[Grumpy Grecian]

Classy response there Muzzle.
Still, look on the bright side. You are still 7-2 ahead on aggregate.

 

[thewwfc]

In some ways disappointing to draw 2-2 away to Blackpool given that we led twice.

But equally you could argue that they were the better team and created more, and better, chances, so maybe a point gained rather than 2 dropped.

And Jordan Fucking Rhodes didn't score against us, so there's that - he's done it depressingly often in the past.

 

[codaplenty]

It won't last of course but that was hilarious.
Tremendous free kick from Doyle.

Outstanding win by your team today, Evatt on borrowed time ?

 

[That Fat Centre Half]

I see Nathan is in some great early season form. If there’s one thing you can never accuse him of is a lack of fire in his belly

Parked the bus at home, fair play to Clough. Caught us cold with that one. Thought he'd come to play considering we had a bench of kids and could only bring on one sub.

It'll be interesting to see where we both finish.

I reckon we may extend the points gap we had over you last season. 11 out today and we dominated play. We should get better. Don't underestimate how hard your side worked to hang on for a point today.

 

[The Terminator]

Poor performance from us today, after being unlucky in the first 3 games against 3 stronger sides, today showed we're likely to be in trouble, we're not dangerous enough in front of goal and missing a central midfield player to dictate a game in the way Wellens likes to play, we just didn't look like we was comfortable once we fell behind.

All our subs made very little impact, which has been a common theme from our squad this season in the attacking areas especially.

Usually I'd say we've got an injury or two here and there, but thats really not the case, apart from Jordan Graham who is a big miss, all our attacking and midfield options are fit and don't look like they're up to the job.

Wellens has worked a few miracles with us in the last two seasons, he's got a big job on his hands now with what we have avaliable to us in the attacking third, goals were a problem for us last season, even more so this.

Few beers mate?

Got to stop getting emotional over Cloughie, that shrine is going well I hope.

 

[northstandexile]

I thought Stockport were too cautious, if they had attacked us more they would have won easily. Saying that Stags battled very well and never gave up.
Stockport should easily make the play offs when their injuries clear up.

Clough is good at what he does. I have no doubt he'll keep you up, you worked really hard today and you've got a decent shape about you.

People on our forum saying Cloughie looks close to a breakdown in the post match and that he's going to do a Paul Simpson are wide of the mark. Today is a good point for both sides and should be treated as such.

You're hurting tonight mate, we can see that. First team with a pulse of the season and you've come up short. Still top and a long way to go.
