You've had about 20% more touches than us but 6 penalties to nil.

It's a rubbish theory
The best way to question the legitimacy of penalties is to look at each one individually the ones given or not given , because many of the decisions I’ve seen this year in league one given and not given have often been ridiculous. The stats matter shit if the ref as just messed up which there seem many in this division and that’s why questions are being asked.

I’ve seen the Wycombe v Exeter one and it was a very weak pen , I got it wrong the other day I said we hadn’t had a pen since 2021 at home ( we have had one but we missed it) , but if they are giving pens for that we should of had around 10 to 20 in those 4ish years and that is what annoys fans travelling up and down the country the refs are deciding games on a wim is so frustrating.

Yeah I've seen it again and it's not conclusive at all, actually looks like it hit the Wycombe players arm before ours.
But what can you do except moan.

We drew against Cambridge and Bristol Rovers in December too.

Its just because more people click on the BBC website if they mention Wrexham than if they mention Leyton Orient. It doesn't mean anything- just ignore it

Is the only correct reason why.

Did anyone see that SSN reported that Wrexham announced the tinpot trophy game was PP, when in actual fact it was at Port Vale? SSN obviously follow Wrexham on twitter and don't follow Vale. lol

Lol, the media bias towards Wrexham is getting so old now.

We got 2 more points from our six games and didn't conceed a single goal, but of course they've gone with Wrexham for the thumbnail, snore.

Not always, clough won the EFL manager of the year last season when we finished below wrexham - obviously recognising what we’d achieved both on and off the field was a better feat given blah blah blah.

Anyway,‘you don’t want that dodgy manager of the month award, helps keep you under the radar.

Big day for our old chairman and his cronies. If I wasn’t working I might have gone into town to shout abuse at them as they scuttle into the courthouse.

We put out a fans survey and the lady who volunteered to look after the match day mascots for the last seven years believed the bit where it said anonymous.

For her trouble (and very mild criticism )she has been sacked from her volunteer post.

Her tweet on the subject has now received 1.4 million views!

Quick, where's my pistol? There's a foot that needs shooting!

Any clue when the March TV games are being announced?

I can see our Bolton and Wycombe fixtures being moved, and I'm praying they don't end up Thursday night games.

Aren't the March and April games being moved within 4 weeks of the original game date?

Can't see them being on a Saturday 3pm, though. Same with Blackpool on the April bank holiday.

"Selections for matches scheduled after the first weekend in March will be made by the broadcasters on a four-week rolling basis starting from 1 February (e.g. a selection for the first weekend in April will be selected in the first weekend in March). The selections will then be announced to supporters following an agreement with all required stakeholders within seven days"

I read that as meaning that we may not hear about games in March until the 8th February. Fortunately for us i can't see Sky being interested in any of our games until the Wrexham game on the 29th

I'd say you have little to fear. Our other 3 Saturday games in March (Bolton and Stockport at home, Wycombe away) are far more likely to move.

Wycombe's a dead cert, I just hope it isn't the Thursday.

That's good, I really don't want another one moved and hopefully at 3pm on Saturday will be a sellout in both ends

I’d imagine our game with Barnsley on 15th march will get moved given it’s localish, they’re in a great run, the DKD thing.

Also we don’t have any other decent games in march!

We will probably rearrange our game for March.
Oh I see

Yeah, reckon our game would be a tough sell!

It’s at your discretion whether the tuesday night game is live in sky, i didn’t realise that if the game was originally planned on a Satueday the home club has the right to block it, hopefully you won’t though.

Yeah doubt we will block it, we are a proper side, unlike Peterborough...

As it was an international weekend game, then home club can’t block it.
