Tuesday 1 April fixtures

Well the number of posters sticking on here despite the recent tech cockups has definitely tailed off, but let’s keep going for now.

What with recent managerial shenanigans, we get denied Ainsworth’s return to Adams Park, which is a bit of a shame but hey ho.

Still a vital game (as are they all) for our auto hopes given Wxm are bound to beat Cambridge.

Nothing is likely to change at the bottom on Tues night, the Gas clearly aren’t going to get a result v Brum, but I can’t see Crawley or Burton closing the gap on them either.

...Wxm are bound to beat Cambridge.

Errr...no, we don't do things that are deemed routine.
We should win...but lets leave it at that.

Confidence should be high after Saturday but we are slightly cagier on the road.

You're a bit different to when we played back in December, christ that was a dull game.

Certainly think had we not collected the last 2 wins on the bounce we'd be panicking for sure, but we're more or less there now and though I hope of course we get something, I don't really expect anything from you at home tomorrow or Huddersfield Saturday.

I remember seeing a US influencer post about going to watch that game, stunned at the lack of quality on show. That game was almost the turning point for us. We were 4 points off the relegation places and playing woefully. Our run of form since that game is incredible, funny how things can changes so quickly

Tbh it was a big turning point for us too, we'd lost a good number of games before that (4 or 5 i think) and we then went on a mini-run where we won 4/5 in quick succession which has a large part of keeping us up really, not that we should sell ourselves short but in our first season getting back up going to somewhere like Charlton and getting a point did a lot of the players and the fans.

Your run has been incredible since.

Not expecting too much at Barnsley. I know their playoff hopes are fading and we beat them last season, but the weird selection on Saturday and long trip up doesn't fill me with confidence.
A point would do nicely.

So, how many fans will you bring to the Stags tomorrow night with no trains back after the match to the smoke.

Probably just shy of 1000

Comfortable home win for Wycombe tomorrow night

Nah, no such thing.

Would imagine your boys will be champing at the bit still to impress the new gaffer (if they’re not then fair dos, you really are fucked).

Plus WW old boys Gape and Wheeler will no doubt be itching to show their best v former teammates (I know Blackman and Pierre are ex WW as well, but from longer ago so it’s not quite the same).

I believe you are where you are for a reason but anyone who takes any game for granted needs a hard smack upside the head. We’ve lost the advantage in the race for 2nd and are playing really nervous unappealing football at the moment, so no room for complacency.

 

[Throbber_for_Dunk]

Fancy dropping off Mullin whilst youse bugger off with an easy three points?

 

[northstandexile]

Are Charlton really that good (14 wins in last 20 games) as when we played them in December they were really poor. We had just lost five on the spin but we managed to get a 0-0 draw at their place.
What has changed?

 

[The Terminator]

We have a kind fixture list apart from our last two games.

We basically have to win this, but wary that Burton have improved under Bowyer, this is likely to be another 0-0 with the Brewers or 1-0 either way.

Not promising we will be amazing tonight but we are a completely different side now and hopefully it shows. The key change has been the introduction of wingers into the side. We previously were bypassing the midfield, lumping it up to a striker non stop hoping for flick ons and it didn't work at all. We now play a mix of long balls into the channel and also go direct through the wingers, pressing high to win the ball back although tend to ease off a bit away from home. The game on Saturday was perfect but we can also be vulnerable if a team can play well through the press like Peterborough who kept 3 men up at all times and got the better of us

Yeah we could do that, but doubt he'd want to be back there only due to being so far away from Liverpool. I think that was such a massive factor in him leaving you for us is that we're closer to his home and no other reason :O

I hope SPM is at least on the bench and gets to come on. I'd imagine there'd be a few CU fans wanting to applaud him for what he did and brought to you in the short time he was with you. In my eyes, he is a fantastic player and almost my favourite player in the 30 odd years watching Wrexham.

Yeah I would also like to see him come on. Mullin and Smith, an Cambridge front line.
