Do You Wanna Know What Saunders Was Doing Last Week?

Wrexham tried to beat the freeze last week by getting some ground covers for The Racecourse pitch but the only problem was they didn`t go for them to Widnes until Thursday and as it was freezing all of last week, going for the covers on the Thursday was 5 days too late and the covers didn`t even make the racecourse pitch as the ref came for 4pm last Thursday and called it off before he entered the playing surface, so the covers were taken to Colliers Park and put on the all weather pitch while Saunders was driving round the training pitches in a van with a drag mat on and when Les Williams turned up, Saunders warned him not to take any photographs.
Boy would that have been funny.
Oh and because we are doing so well (ha ha) in the league Saunders gave everyone last Wednesday off even though they only train for less than 2 hours per day anyway.
One bit of team news is that Gareth Taylor got injured in one of the training games and limped off but don`t know if it is serious or not

Wrexham 1 Afc Wimbledon 2 Sat 9th Oct 2010

Wrexham who totally domintated this match and should have won by at least 3 goals were guilty of missing open goals, two from Gareth Taylor and in the end it cost them as Wimbledon scored two goals with their only two shots of the match. It is the best Wrexham have played all season and they should have got the 3 points but instead only collect one point from two home matches this week. Their next home match is against Luton Town in three weeks which is on a Thursday and live on Sky.
Andy Mangan scored his first goal of the season to put Wrexham 1-0 up and that`s how it was at half time. Second half Wrexham fell asleep and conceded a goal with a minute of the 2nd half and then Wimbledon scored about ten minutes from the end to condemn Wrexham to defeat which they did not deserve.

Wrexham v Afc Wimbledon 3Pm Sat 9th Oct 2010

Since Saunders has been relieved of his Welsh duties Wrexham have definitely seen an improvement in their fortunes and Saunders has changed from 4-5-1 to 4-3-3 and it is definitely better to watch and is also getting us a lot more points and we now look capable of scoring against anyone. This should be a cracking game to watch and I omagine will be the second biggest attendance at The Racecourse this season

Wrexham 4 Histon 0 Saturday, 25 September 2010

Wrexham 4-0 Histon


The first time I can ever recall the opposition having no fans at all. Has it ever happened in a match before at The Racecourse? I don`t think it has.

Wrexham made it eight games unbeaten as they brushed aside struggling Histon.

Jamie Tolley opened the scoring for the Welsh side from close range after Andy Mangan drove into the Histon area and laid the ball off for the midfielder.

Dean Keates doubled Wrexham's lead soon after with a spectacular free-kick that the captain fired into the top corner.

Mangan set up the Dragons' third with a perfect near-post cross that Gareth Taylor buried, before Nathaniel Knight-Percival grabbed a close-range fourth.

Wrexham Need New Goals To Have European Matches.

A. new FIFA directive means the goals Wrexham have at The Racecourse are not up to European standard as they have now outlawed the stantions in both of the top corners of the goals. They have only just had new nets and the new goals have been ordered at a cost of £600

Wrexham Youth Win 9 - 0 against Ashton Town

Wrexham youth showed the first team it is possible to score more than two goals & did it in style in the F A Youth Cup.

Wrexham 1 Barrow 1 Sat Aug 28th

Wrexham domatied this match from start to finish but in the end were thankful for the draw. They fell behind midway through first half when Barrow on their only attack scored with a long ball upfield which Marvin Andrews for second game running made a mess of a header which wad directed to centre of 18 yard box which fell kindly to their playet who slottef the ball home to make it 1-0 with their only attack of the half. 2nd half it was Wxm attack after attack after attack and no matter what we did we never looked like scoring until Marvin Andrews was sent up front in ijury time and with a great run down the right in front of The Mold Road Stand delivered the best cross of the afternoon which the Wrexham player missed but their defender could not get out of the way and came off him and straight into the goal for an injury time own goal equaliser which is no more than what Wrexham deserved.

Bath 0 Wrexham 2 Bank Holiday Monday August 2010

A great win for Wrexham winning 2-0 at Bath today. Any win these days is a great win even though Bath v Wrexham does not sound right but this is where we are at prsent and there is nothing we can do about it except to keep winning matches.

Wrexham 0 Liverpool XI 0 Wednesday 21st July 2010

Apologies for the delay in posting this but I just been too busy. Anyway here goes.

Wrexham: Chris Maxwell, Declan Walker, Neil Ashton, Frank Sinclair, Chris Blackburn, Jay Harris, Kevin Gall, Dean Keates, Andy Mangan, Nat Knight-Percival, Andy Morrell. Subs: Johnny Hunt, Louis Moss, Curtis Obeng, Jamie Tolley, David Brown, Marc Williams, Gareth Taylor, Wes Baynes, Adrian Cieslewicz, Christian Smith.
Liverpool: Dean Bouzanis, John Flanagan, Emmanuel Mendy, Alex Cooper, Andre Wisdom, Conor Coady, Toni Brito Silva, Nicolijl Kolhert, Nicola Saric, Jesus Fernandez, Vicent Weijl. Subs: Michael N'Goo, Jamie Stephens, Jakub Sokolik, Michael Roberts, Matthew McGiveron, Marcus Giglio, Lewis Hatch.
Referee: Lee Evans.

Wrexham included old favourite Andy Morrell in their starting line up and he got a good welcome back from the small crowd that actually bothered to turn up for this pre-season friendly against a Liverpool reserve and youth team mixture which is not what Liverpool promised when they signed a couple of Wrexham academy players earlier in the year, so in that respect it was very disappointing that Liverpool did not fulfill their part of the deal. Liverpool did include goalkeeper Dean Bouzanis who was supposed to sign for Wrexham last season but in the end he didn`t and thank god for that. His display here was awful, can`t kick, can`t catch and absolutely rubbish.

Wrexham players that impressed me were Jay Harris who was absolutely superb. A bit like Robbie Garrett but ten times more skilful and his tackling was nothing short of unbelieveable, but I am sure that he will see red once or twice this season because of the type of player he is but what a player.
Another player to impress was Nat Knight-Percival who won everything in the air and took players on as if they weren`t there. He could well be the player who finally replaces Carlos Edwards down the wing as he is that good.
Chris Blackburn was another player who was impressive at the back unlike Frank Sinclair who very nearly scored another own goal when in the first five minutes of the second half with the ball inside the Wrexham penalty box and with Maxwell rushing off his line to try to get to the ball, Sinclair decided to just touch the ball which then went past Maxwell who dived backwards to save the ball from going into the goal as he had no other option, but the referee who obviously doesn`t know the rules of the game awarded a free kick for a back pass. I know it was a back pass but if he hadn`t have dived and saved it, it would have been a goal so this is where common sense comes into play unless you happen to be in charge of a Wrexham match. Wrexham had every player back on the goal line only for Liverpool to hit the ball high and over the crossbar.
Adrian Cieslewicz came on as sub second half and within five minutes went on one of his runs nd took 3 Liverpool players on and skinned them before he was brought down and the Liverpool defender shown a yellow card. Give this lad a chance this season and by that I mean give him several matches on the bounce and watch his confidence grow and he will take players on and will put some good crosses in but the more games he has then he will grow in confidence and then watch this lad go.

The players I was not impressed with were Jamie Tolley who has obviously eaten too many pies.
Andy Mangan had a great chance to put Wrexham ahead when he was one on one with the keeper and the ball bounced at the right height for Mangan to lob the keeper who was off his line but instead opted to take the keeper on who easily took the ball from Mangan`s feet. It`s about time that Mangan started paying Wrexham back because he plays 90 minutes most matches and he is just not doing the business. He needs to do it this season or let`s get rid.

My only concern is that even though this was a friendly against a bunch of Liverpool reserve and youth players Saunders still only played one up front and we don`t look like scoring. One up front in this match was a disgrace and if this is going to be Saunders tactics again this year then we will once again have nohing to cheer. Who the hell plays one up front in a friendly at home against a bunch of reserve and youth team players. I will tell you  - no-one else just Saunders.

Aberyswyth 1 Wrexham 0 Saturday 17th July 2010

Wrexham lost to Aberyswyth 1-0 after spending a few days down on the coast. Despite plenty of possession it was the same old story with Wrexham not looking likely to score if they played all day.
Marc Williams played again and once again failed to score which makes it 22 matches since he last scored a goal in a Wrexham shirt.
I know it`s only a friendly but we need to start creating chances and scoring goals but with Marc Williams and Andy Fleming in the team ( 1 goal in 3 years ) then I fear we are in for another fruitless season if the pre-season friendlies are anything to go by.
Andy Fleming who refused to sign a new contract at the end of the season and said he was off but no-one has put any offers in for him which is hardly surprising as who wants a midfielder who has scored just the one goal in 3 years has even had the cheek to demand a pay rise to stop. Let him go and get someone in who knows where the goal is and while you are at it, get rid of Marc Williams as well.

Wrexham 3 Bala Town 4 Wed 14th July 2010 At Colliers Park

With a team consisting mainly of trialists against a second string Bala Town team Wrexham failed to win this game which surprised a few.  Bala Town did not include their new signing Mark Jones and Ricky Evans didn`t play either but a certain Danny Williams was in the Bala Team. Wrexham had three asains in their team, with two of them starting and then getting subbed later on when the third asain came on and what I seen of them, they are no better than what we already have. A big black lad up front did a good run going past two players only for him to then fall over the ball.

Wrexham did include a certain Marc Williams who yet again failed to score and that is now 21 games since he last scored and Saunders kept him on, albeit for 6 months with a view to extend if he does well. How many other strikers would go 21 games without a goal and still be given a new contract. I will tell you exactly how many.   Zero----

Wrexham v Bala Town at Colliers Park Wednesday 14th July 2010

Football/Conference/Conference+National/Wrexham

WREXHAM began their pre-season programme with a comfortable 4-0 victory over Vauxhall Motors at Rivacre Park last night (Tuesday, July 13).

WREXHAM began their pre-season programme with a comfortable 4-0 victory over Vauxhall Motors at Rivacre Park last night (Tuesday, July 13).




Goals from Andy Mangan and trialist midfielder Jamie Tolley put Wrexham in control at the break and a penalty from Gareth Taylor – expected to sign a new contract – in the second half, and Christian Smith strike secured the win.



More chances came Wrexham’s way in a game they dominated and they could have won by a bigger margin.



Manager Dean Saunders, who used a total of 22 players, was treating the game as a training exercise but there were plenty of positives to take from the first friendly of the summer.



Just two of Saunders’ seven new signings – centre-back Chris Blackburn and midfielder Dean Keates – were not included in the squad, although neither had serious injury concerns.



Blackburn was given extra recovery time following his play-off excursions with former club Aldershot in May, while Keates was recovering from a minor groin strain sustained in training.



But midfielder David Brown, winger Nat Knight Percival and striker Andy Morrell – back at The Racecourse for a second spell – were included in the side for the first 45 minutes along with trialists Cameron Mawer and Tolley.



Adrian Cieslewicz’s fourth minute drive was saved by keeper Scott Tynan but Wrexham were enjoying plenty of the ball and took a 1-0 lead just five minutes later.



Tolley’s shot was blocked by a defender and Andy Mangan was on hand to slot past Tynan.



Wrexham, well on top, continued to play neat passing football despite the deluge of rain and forced a series of corners.



Following another excellent move, the next scoring opportunity came in the 25th minute when Knight-Percival delivered a cross from the left wing and Cieslewicz’s effort was tipped over the bar by Tynan.



With Wrexham making good use of the flanks, Cieslewicz did well on the right and Knight-Percival almost got on the end of his teasing cross, while Motors finally tested Reds keeper Chris Maxwell when he did well to tip away Paul Brown’s powerful header.



Knight-Percival also headed wide from Johnny Hunt’s cross before Wrexham made it 2-0 one minute before the break.



Frank Sinclair won a midfield header and Tolley placed his 20-yard shot past Tynan into the bottom corner.



Saunders changed all 11 players for the second half with new signings, left-back Neil Ashton and winger Kevin Gall, taking their place in the side alongside ex-Liverpool goalkeeper Chris Oldfield – aged 19 and currently unattached.



Oldfield made a smart save to deny scorer Brown but Wrexham responded through Christian Smith whose low drive took a deflection and was brilliantly tipped around the post by Tynan.



Despite Motors seeing more of the ball and creating half chances after the break, Wrexham were dangerous going forward and the better openings came the visitors’ way.



A chip from the edge of the area by Gareth Taylor beat Tynan but found the roof of the net while Marc Williams teed up Andy Fleming – watched by Morecambe boss Sammy McIlroy who hopes to sign the midfielder – but his diving header fell wide.



And the third goal arrived in the 76th minute when Williams was brought down in the area and Taylor dispatched the resulting penalty.



The scoring was completed three minutes from time when Smith found the net with a left-foot shot from just outside the area.



VAUXHALL MOTORS (4-4-2): Tynan; Noone, Hannigan, Taylor, Dames; Brown, Wilson Mboa, Asgari; Field, Noon.



WREXHAM first half (4-4-2): Maxwell; Walker, Mawer, Sinclair, Hunt; Cieslewicz, Brown, Tolley, Knight-Percival; Morrell, Mangan.



WREXHAM second half (4-4-2): Oldfield; Obeng, Clowes, Edwards, Ashton; Gall, Fleming, Smith, Baynes; Williams, Taylor.



Attendance: 410.

Paul Retout Suspended On Full Pay

Whatever the official line is from Wrexham fc about Paul Retout going to visit relatives in Australia for 6 months , it is a lie. Paul Retout has been officially suspended by Wrexham Fc for 6 months and is under police investigation and I doubt very much that he will be allowed to go abroad while under investigation. He was actually at Colliers Park last week despite people saying he was already abroad.

Saunders Finally Lost The Plot

After getting rid of most of our better players at the end of last season, Saunders promised toget a few strikers in as our defence was one of the best but we just couldn`t score a goal for love or money until Andy Mangan turned up but by then our season was already over. Anyway back to the strikers Saunders promised to bring in. The last two weeks we have signed two more defenders, one of whom played for Chester last season before they were forced out of business and shut their ground for the last time as Chester City Football Club, albeit a new team has been formed and will start in a league five divisions below Wrexham. The other defender who was on Peterborough`s books last season has decided to drop down 3 divisions because he was not happy. If he was not happy in The Championship wait till he arrives at Wrexham and everyone plays out of position. I fear he will not last the season, hopefully Saunders will follow him.

Real Reason Luke Holden Was Released

The real reason Luke Holden Was released from Wrexham last week was nothing to do with his footballing skills, it was because he kept fighting with other players in training. Less than two weeks ago he was fighting with Frank Sinclair. To be fair to the lad he was not a bad player but you cant have someone like that in the squad.

Oxford 1-0 Wrexham

Kevin Sandwith claimed the only goal for promotion-chasing Oxford who left it late to see off Wrexham at the Kassam Stadium.
The defender broke the deadlock with eight minutes remaining, rising highest to head the ball down at the far post and into the net.
Matt Green had earlier seen his effort hit the visitors' bar.
But Wes Baynes almost claimed a point in injury-time when his free-kick was pushed on to the post by Billy Turley.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Wrexham manager Dean Saunders:

"The free kick hit the goalie's arm and hit the inside of the posts and came back out - it's typical of our luck.

"I've got to be pleased with our performance really. I can't fault the effort and I thought the performance was great.
"We haven't scored enough goals this season and not enough players have stood up and showed enough determination to get on the end of things."

Oxford 1 Wrexham 0 Highlights

Wrexham 0-1 Rushden And Diamonds

A scrambled Aaron O'Connor goal gave high-flying Rushden & Diamonds victory over woeful Wrexham.
The Dragons, in their final home game of the season, gave fans free entry, but barely managed a shot on goal.
O'Connor tried to keep the ball in play with a header after Matt Pattison's corner, but saw the ball unexpectedly go in off Chris Maxwell's legs.
Diamonds had already secured their play-off place, while Wrexham were booed off the pitch at the end.
The win sees the visitors leapfrog York and move up to fourth in the table.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Wrexham manager Dean Saunders said:
"It's disappointing that we haven't played anywhere near like I want us to play and that we lost the game to a set piece again - that drives me round the bend.
"We had chances to score early on then in the second half, but they're a good team and are in the play-offs for a reason - we didn't create the chances that we normally do.
"It's disappointing because there was a big crowd here and I tried to egg the players on and show the fans how good we can be to encourage them to come back."

Rushden and Diamonds manager Justin Edinburgh told BBC Radio Northampton:

"Aaron O'Connor has rolled his ankle and I thought it was a poor challenge. I thought it was reckless.
"I thought it was a competitive game, very fair and end-to-end. Major decisions have gone against us but fortunately we've won the game.
"We've seen the results and it makes going into next week a little bit more interesting. It could all change on the last game of the season."

Wrexham 0 Gateshead 0 Monday 5th April 2010

In front of just over 2,300 spectators were abysmal and for the second time in a month failed to find the back of the net against part timers Gateshead. All Wrexham supporters were handed a leaflet to vote on what we liked and didnt like about Wrexham Fc starting from the bottom to the top and the PA System is shocking and right on cue it failed, but when it works it is so quiet in The Mold Road Stand that you cant hear a word anyone says and you could not even hear the team news. No fanfare for the teams to come out to which is after all the most exciting part especially for the kids. No place for McCluskey who is one of our most talented players yet never gets much of a look in but a rare start for Mark Jones albeit on the right wing even though his best position is in the middle of the park. It was a totally forgettable first half and the only player who tried to make things happen was Mark Jones but even he cant do it all by himself. 2nd half and on comes the most selfish player we have in Wes Baynes who took one free kick which nearly cleared the roof of the kop. Saunders then does the usual sub and takes Mark Jones off and replaces him with Luke Holden.(last 3 times Mark has been taken off the opposition have scored). Holden who is left footed immediately went to the right wing and it was not long before he got a yellow card for deliberately bringing down their player, about ten mins later he was running with the ball in front of The Mold Road Stand attacking the Kop end when he thread the ball between two defenders and deliberately dived on the edge of The penalty area and was shown a 2nd yellow and he was given his marching orders to the dismay of people around me but he had to go and he should be fined because what he did was a disgrace. At the end there were shouts me ' What a load of rubbish' and I couldn't agree more.

Wimbledon 2 Wrexham 2 Tuesday 30th March 2010

A disastrous end to a match which started badly and ended badly but inbetween Wrexham were on top. First half Wrexham were poor and the Wrexham keeper Maxwell saved a penalty. 2nd half Wrexham took the lead through an own goal by the Wimbledon keeper and were closing Wimbledon down a lot faster than the first half and could have scored another two during the second half and in the 90th min disaster. Obeng passes to the keeper and ends up going for a corner where Sinclair scores an own goal. 91st min Mangan puts Wrexham 2-1 up. 92nd minute Sinclair gives a penalty away and gets sent off for the 4th time this season and the match ends 2-2

Lamine Sakho Released

Wrexham have released the former Leeds striker Lamine Sakho after he failed to impress during his time at The Racecourse despite his ability but with only one goal it was felt his heart was not in it and his last piece of action was to storm off the pitch and straight down the tunnel leaving Wrexham with ten men for several minutes while the sub got ready. Wrexham have also signed a young striker which I have my doubts about especially as he lacks experience and goals which is what we already lack.

Gateshead 1 Wrexham 0 Tuesday 23rd March 2010

Chris Maxwell who was playing in goal instead of Sam Russell made the mistake which led to Gateshead`s goal and ultimately the winner. I can`t believe that Saunders choose Maxwell over Russell as it is clear it`s not Russell who is to blame for the poor run of results but the management team for making the stupid subs they do. When we are losing they leave the team as it is when it is cryig out for changes but when we are winning like last Saturday 2-0 at home v Cambridge they make three subs, all defensive negative one`s and invite Cambridge onto us which is exactly what happened last Saturday and in the end we were lucky to draw 2-2 as they had another chance near the end which Russell did well to save.
Time for Saunders to go. I have had enough of wasting my time and money watching crap.

Wrexham v Cambridge Saturday 20th March 2010









Wrexham 2 Cambridge 2 Saturday 20th March 2010

Wrexham who raced into a two goal lead after 15 minutes were left hanging on for a point as they pressed the self destruct with three shocking substitutions by Dean Saunders which did nothing to help Wrexham and a display by a referee who should never be allowed onto a football pitch again as time after time he let Cambridge get away with their bully boy tactics and booked every Wrexham player he possibly could, even booking Spann as he went to take a throw-in and as he picked up the ball the referee showed him a yellow card which I have never witnessed such a shocking display by ny referee in my life, although if you visit the racecourse regularly then you will I guarantee the worst referee`s in the world as they all come to the racecourse.
Anyway Wrexham scored through Andy Mangan after a great through pass by Christian Smith who picked out Mangan who saw his shot go in off the post then a few minutes later Wrexham had a corner and Christian Smith scored a powering header to put Wrexham clearly in command of the match and they went in at half time 2-0 up. 2nd half starts and Saunders decides to make a sub and off comes Mark Jones and is replaced by the slefish Wes Baynes and I just can`t believe that he has pressed the self destruct button again because whenever he takes off Mark Jones, (the most skilful player we have got but is never given a decent run in the first team and who surely will be off this summer for a team that realises his skill and contribution and his off the ball running freeing up space for his team mates) the opposition always score and we end up drawing a match of losing and that substitution totally changed the game for me and the referee who I would not let take charge of an undr 8`s match. Then Saunders replaces Sakho another skilful player who is not given much support by either the manager or the fans and is replaced by Kai Edwards who was making his first team debut this season and another defender and to top it all off he replaces Mangan and brings on Wolfenden. The crowd were getting restless and several fouls by Cambridge which went unpunished led to their penalty which after watching the replay twenty times I still can`t see why it was given except for the simple fact the referee obviously didn`t want Wrexham to win and he made sure they didn`t. They scored fromt the spot to make it 2-1 and then a shot from the edge of the area into the bottom left corner of the goal in front of the Eric Roberts stand and Wrexham were defending way too deep and inviting Cambridge to score and as the final whistle went there was a chorus of Saunders Out Saunders Out from the dismayed home fans.
Drew a match we were in total control due to the worst referee ever seen at The Racecourse, that is until next week when you can guarantee that the next ref will be worse and a selection of substitutions by Saunders which proves that he has not got a clue.

Barrow 2 Wrexham 1 Tuesday 16th March 2010

A rare start for Mark Jones proved I have been right all season by saying he should have been in the team months ago and was excellent and got Wrexham's goal, just a shame the other ten players didnt turn up. After taking the lead Wrexham pressed the self destruct button by scoring an own goal which lifted Barrow and they scored through sub Nick Chadwick to go 2-1 up and Wrexham then had Mani sent off in the last minute. We should be thrashing teams like Barrow and to lose to teams like Barrow makes you question the players commitment and desire. They are all full time, stop overnight in top hotels when playing away and they have a luxury travel coach that other teams have to make do with a minibus and have the best fresh food daily with a chef catering to every player and training facilities which most championship teams would be proud of.

Luton Town 1 Wrexham 0 Sat 13th March 2010

Five games without a win and despite the scoreline Wrexham were outplayed throughout this game and got what they deserved absolutely nothing. A very poor performance which leaves Wrexham in the wrong half of the table. Any hopes of a play off place have now vanished and the only place Wrexham are going is down if they not careful.

Wrexham 1 v 1 Altrincham Result 9th March 2010

Its all happening here at The Racecourse. Wrexham 1-0 up thanks to a Wes Baynes tap in. Altrincham have missed a penalty and Frank Sinclair on his comeback game from injury is shown a straight red card after a bad tackle on ex Wrexham player Tom Kearney who has been stretchered off with a very bad injury. And its still the first half.

Taken from the BBC Website : -

Midfielder Tom Kearney's double leg break overshadowed the evening as Altrincham came back to draw with 10-man Wrexham at the Racecourse Ground.

Wrexham cashed in on Chris Senior's missed penalty to lead through Wes Baynes' close-range strike.
But Frank Sinclair was shown a straight red card for a tackle on Kearney which left players wincing.
And, after withstanding heavy Robins pressure, Greg Strong headed home Peter Doran's fine corner from close range.
The visitors' penalty came midway through the first half after Silvio Spann fouled Senior, who was then thwarted by Wrexham keeper Sam Russell.
And Altrincham were made to pay for that miss when Andy Mangan set up Baynes' opener.
Then came Sinclair's second red card of the season, as Kearney departed the action on a stretcher.
But, in this mid-table battle, Alty eventually managed to make their extra man count when Young headed home to earn his side a third successive 1-1 draw.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Wrexham manager Dean Saunders:
"What can you say? I thought we were comfortable all night, even when we were down to 10 men.
"I seriously think that something has to be done about the standard of refereeing.
"We are going to appeal against the red card. I have to say that Tom Kearney's a great lad and no-one likes to see that happen. I'll be trying to speak to him [on Wednesday].
"But I know rank has not meant any harm to him. It was a block tackle but he got the ball.
"Frank slid in and he's said that Tom kicked the bottom of his foot and it's just connected on that spot.
"I think because [the referee] has been watching Match of the Day he's jumped on it straight away and sent Frank off.
"[I thought two Altrincham players] were going to get red cards but they never.
"I'm hoping that in a few years time I'm going to look back at this and say I'm glad it happened to me and I've learned something.
"I'm just coming out of games every week and saying the same things.
"We had enough chances to win and even in the last minute there was a blatant penalty on Andy Fleming, but [the referee] thought he couldn't give it because he should have given them a penalty earlier."

Wrexham Lose Thousands Of Pounds

Did Anyone Buy That Awful Kit That Looked Similar To An England Top

At the beginning of the season whoever was in charge of making a new kit decided to make one that looked like an England top and despite suggestions to alter it, they went ahead with it and we are in the last quarter of the season and I can`t remember seeing any Wrexham fan actually wearing it to a match. This kit disaster has cost the club thousands of pounds in lost revenue as I always buy a new shirt for myself and my son and I know a lot of other people do as well but when we seen the design there was no way I would be seen in a shirt that looked like an England top
Every week the crowds are getting lower because the players are not producing the goods the fans wil stop paying good money and its a catch 22 situation. I know the board have said that if they don`t get the fans through the gates then they can`t afford any new players. I`ve got an idea to make money. Make a shirt that doesn`t look like an England shirt and you may just sell a few because despite everyone moaning when the England type shirt was first put out and everyone saying they wouldn`t buy it, guess what? Wrexham continued to make the shirt and you`ve guessed right, no-one has bought any. I have not seen one person wear the shirt so another suggestion would to get rid of the commercial director because that has cost thousands of pounds in lost revenue.

Wonder what next seaons kit will be like. Will it be similar to a rugby top. I wouldn`t bet against it.

Wrexham came away feeling hard done by with a last minute penalty given against a foul by Obeng when in all honesty these are the teams we should be knocking goals past for fun but we just cant score goals which is a major problem when you are a Footballer. A few injuries meant a rare start for Mark Jones who based on skill should in my opinion be in the starting eleven every time but with Gareth Taylor playing most of first half of season up front, the midfield was being missed with all the high long balls but the games Taylor does not play and we can play some decent football at times and this is where Mark can make the difference. Saunders has pulled out of the Wales squad this Wednesday as he still thinks Wrexham can make the play offs. They are still in reach points wise, trouble is we do not have the team to get the amount of points needed to make the play off's. A poor result which should never have happened given the fact that Wrexham are full time and have their own Chef, have the best food in training, have got a fantastic team bus which non League clubs could never afford and if the ground is a couple of hours drive then they stop overnight in a luxury hotel. They are pampered like Premiership players and should be able to walk this League but are only halfway which is not good enough. How much longer can we continue being a full time club playing non League football.

Blue Square Premier Football


After a 1-0 defeat at home to Stevenage Borough in midweek Wrexham will be looking to get back to winning ways but to do that they will have to start with a different team as Gareth Taylor upfront is just making us use the long ball tactic and missing out midfield and apart from it being awful to watch (Stevenage fans love it though) it is very inneffective. McCluskey and Mark Jones ame on with 15 mins left the other night and they are both great players and can change the game, they are match winners. Saunders for some reason will not play the skilful players and instead relies on the very average players who cannot pass a ball straight and we are halfway past the season and he still insists on playing the same team when it has not worked all season and will not work. If he played his best eleven which in my opinion he has failed to do all season then we would be up there at the top. Andy Fleming our midfielder plays every game but in over hundreds of matches, he has found the net just once which for a midfielder is not good enough. Mark Jones who cannot get into the team nad has rarely featured has scored more than that this season and like I say is very rarely involved. The problem is if our strikers don`t score, our midfilelders are not doing anything to help out. Fleming as any Wrexham fan will tell you likes to pass backwards 95% of the time and he is not a bad player but Mark Jones should be in the team on merit before him every time and at least with Mark you know there is a chance he is going to score like he did at Altrincham the other week but then was dropped for the next match. It`s time Saunders sorted out who his best eleven is because he needs to get rid of the dead wood at the end of the season and bring in players who can score goals.

Wednesday, February 24, 2010

A shocking dire performance against the 2nd placed team who in all honesty were no better and play with just one tactic, and thats hit the ball as far as you can. If they were my home team I would never go to Watch them because thats not football, they were shocking but did go home with all 3 points. As soon as I seen the starting eleven with Gareth Tayllmp in the team I knew we would play route one and by pass the midfield which is exactly what happened. The Stevenage goal came in the 49th min of The first half. Wolfenden came on half time for Taylor and with about 15 mins left Mark Jones and Jamie McCluskey came on but it was too late by then. Saunders does not give Mark or Jamie a good run in the team because if he had then we would be walking games like last nights as these two lads have more skill than anyone in this League but they cant show it if they dont get a chance. Saunders has his favourites and sticks with them even though it has not worked.

Wrexham v Stevenage

Live Text Commentary

Wrexham 606


Let`s hope the snow has gone before tonight`s fixture against Stevenage. The covers were on yesterday so the game will definitely be on as the covers which were kindly leant from a rugby club last Thursday do not go back till tomorrow. I just hope we don`t play as bad as we did during the first half last Saturday where I swear I nodded off along with a few other Wrexham fans. The 2nd half was better but the introduction of Mark Jones on for the injured Wes Baynes for the last 15 minutes completely changed the way Wrexham played and all of a sudden we were on fire and could have scored 3 goals in that last 15 minutes. People are going to say Mark didn`t do much but what he did do was make space for the other players and made some good runs whereas Baynes is too selfish and if he gets sight of goal wherever he is , he lalways shoots when there are other and better options on, and thats the difference that Jonah made when he came on. I just hope that Saunders picks him tonight as he deserves a run in the team.

Wrexham 2 Crawley Town 0 Result Saturday 20th February 2010

Wrexham beat Crawley 2-0 in one of the most boring games I have seen at The Racecourse. In fact the less said the better. Sakho went off injured miday through the first half and was replaced by Matty Wolfenden who scored the 2nd goal late in the 2nd half. Mike Williams scored Wrexham`s first goal Mark Jones replaced the injured Wes Baynes and from the moment he came on Wrexham started to play nice good football and could have scored another 3 goals but had to settle

Wrexham FC's Geoff Moss to step down - and new man offers olive branch

Wrexham FC's Geoff Moss to step down - and new man offers olive branch


Feb 19 2010 by Mark Currie, Daily Post
Geoff Moss

THE man poised to become the new chairman of Wrexham FC last night offered an olive branch to the club’s largest supporters’ organisation and described Dragons fans as the “heart and soul of the club”.
A press conference today is expected to confirm that present chairman Geoff Moss is stepping down as a director of the Blue Square Premier League club with Ian Roberts, a Ruthin-based businessman, taking over.
Other changes following the recent introduction of Super League rugby to the Racecourse will see Crusaders marketing director Mike Turner and commercial manager Richard Jones appointed to the board with responsibility for building the business and maximise revenue streams for both teams.
At a sparsely-attended fans’ forum last night, Roberts insisted he wanted to draw a line in the sand on what had gone before and promised more consultation and transparency in the future.
Introducing Turner and Jones, he said: “We have brought these guys in – and they don’t come cheap – because we are entering a new phase.
“We want to wipe the slate clean with the supporters and open negotiations with Wrexham Supporters Trust.
“There have been misunderstandings in the past, but we would like to engage in a dialogue to see how we can work together.”
The Trust, whose long-held ambition is to take a shareholding in the club, has a war-chest of more than £350,000 and Roberts added: “With the sort of money they have raised, we (the club) should be shaking their hands and inviting them to do the same for us.
“We can’t afford not to work with people who are the heart and soul of the club and for too many years the two sides have been working against each other.”
Roberts admitted that last night’s forum had been arranged at extremely short notice, but promised that a second would be staged within a month and that it would be the first of regular open meetings.
Jones, who outlined a business plan for both clubs, added: “We have to be more transparent in the way the club is run and recognise the supporters can play a massive part in that.”
Trust vice-chairman Peter Jones grilled him on the club’s employment of two alleged “charity scammers”, pointing out that many supporters were dismayed by Wrexham’s refusal to sack the pair.
But he was told that, although the club’s inquiries were ongoing, both had so far proved exemplary employees.
l BUCKLEY & District Reds are holding their next meeting onSunday at the Hope & Anchor (Trap Pub) in Buckley at 8pm. Non-members are welcome to attend and can join on the night.

Geoff Moss Shuts Down Red Passion

Geoff Moss has shut down Red Passion because of people on there giving him a load of grief. I for one fully agree with Moss, lets be honest without him where would Wrexham Fc be now. People have short memories and if he has had all his money back and is going to make a profit from Wrexham village then whats wrong with that. No one else pumped money into the club when we were so close to going out of business so Wrexham supporters who slag Moss off, get off your backside and then put your own money into the club, otherwise shut up and let Moss get on with his life and stop abusing Geoff and his family. He is a Wrexham supporter who saved Wrexham Fc in our hour of need when no one else was willing to risk their own money.

Chester v Wrexham Derby Off

This sundays derby match between Chester and Wrexham is off as the police refuse to attend.

Chester City squad refuse to play at Forest Green

Chester City squad refuse to play at Forest Green

Chester City squad refuse to play at Forest Green




Chester's trip to Forest Green on Tuesday was called off at late notice after the cash-strapped club's players refused to get on the team bus.



The game was postponed at 1711 GMT, two and a half hours before kick-off, after Forest Green received a call saying that City could not fulfil the fixture.



"Negotiations had been going on all day," revealed former managing director Rob Gray, who is still at the club.



"But, in the end, we'd no option but to say we could not fulfil the fixture."



Crisis club Chester's players had gone unpaid for three months until receiving a week's salary prior to last weekend's home defeat by Ebbsfleet.



But, having twice threatened strike action already this season (only for the targeted games to be called off on each occasion due to the weather), the players finally appear to have had enough.



The players have obviously been unhappy about not being paid



Former Chester managing director Rob Gray

Chester's gates, already massively reduced following relegation last season, have slumped even further following a boycott led by disillusioned Chester fans, unhappy with the running of the now seemingly doomed club.



By comparison with last season's average gate of 1,972, Chester have attracted less than 500 to both their last two home league games.



"To get only 450 here doesn't even cover the overheads," Gray told BBC Sport. "The fans' boycott has finally taken its toll.



"I'm not sure it's the right way to go about things. But the players have obviously been unhappy about not being paid."



Chester were already down to only nine senior players, having lost top scorer Nick Chadwick and midfielders Anthony Barry and James Owen in the last month.



And defenders Rhys Meynell, a target for Kidderminster Harriers, and Kevin Roberts, reportedly pursued by Cambridge United, have both served a two-week notice to terminate their contracts.


606: DEBATE

Have your say on Chester's latest setback
http://www.bbc.co.uk/dna/606/ArticleSearch?contenttype=-1&phrase=Chester%20City&phrase=Football


A statement on Forest Green Rovers' website read: "Due to circumstances beyond our control, the club was notified at 5.11pm that this evening's Blue Square Premier fixture against Chester City has been called off.
"The club are taking steps to liaise with all our usual media contacts to notify them of the circumstances, however we would like to take this opportunity to apologise to all our sponsors and supporters for the late cancellation."
Chester now face the likelihood of a renewed date with Blue Square Premier officials, who were already keen to talk to them over their parlous financial situation.
They are also due back in the High Court in London next month, on 10 March, as they face being wound up over an unpaid £25,025 tax bill.

And, although the Conference are understood to have so far been keen for Chester to somehow limp through the rest of the season, to avoid obvious complications affecting the other 23 Blue Square Premier clubs, City's fans have already effectively written their team off.
We believe that the financial requirements are such that any potential investor will be put off from taking over the club
City Fans United statement

The club's main supporters body, City Fans United, said in a statement:
"We believe that the financial requirements are such that any potential investor will be put off from taking over the club.
"In outpricing any potential owners, the intentions of those currently in charge of the club confirm that the best interests of the club are clearly not held at heart, and until their own debt is written off, the club will cease to exist.
"It is because of this threatening scenario that City Fans United continue to plan for both the continuation of the club, but also the idea of a Phoenix club.
"CFU committee members have been encouraged by field trips to Telford and FC United of Manchester, which have shown that not only is a phoenix club viable at our level, it can also facilitate community participation to create a proud asset for our city."

Wrexham 0 v 0 Tamworth, 19:45 Tuesday 9th February 2010 Result

In a dire game Wrexham managed just one shot on target and the less said about this match the better. There was a recall for Anthony Fairclough in place of Mark Jones who gets twenty minutes one match and then frozen out for several games when if he played a couple of matches and got his confidence back the whole team would benefit as he is a class act. Trouble is if Saunders does not like you then you have no chance of changing his mind.

Dean Saunders Transfers

Dean Saunders Transfers since becoming Wrexham manager in October 2008

Monday 8th Jun 2009

Kyle Is Latest To Leave

DEFENDER Kyle Critchell has agreed a deal which will see him leave the club with immediate effect, despite having a season left on his current contract, the necessary paperwork will be completed shortly.

The 22-year-old Wales U21 international had progressed through the youth and reserve teams at Southampton and also enjoyed a loan spell with Torquay United.

He left for Chesterfield in 2007 and was released by them after half a season, when he moved to Weymouth, his hometown club.

A move to Wrexham followed last summer, but he was suspended for the first three games of the season (following a red card in his final match with Weymouth) and then picked up an injury in training at the end of August.

After recovering from this ankle problem four months later, he said he was looking to be loaned out to help improve his first team chances at Wrexham. Joining fellow Conference side York City on a month's loan in early January 2009.

He was due to make his debut a day later against former club Weymouth, but the match was postponed due to the bad weather, before eventually made his first appearance after playing in the 2-1 victory over Oxford United ten days later.

His loan was extended for a second month on 4 February and finished with him making 11 appearances for the Minstermen.

Coming back to Wrexham in early March, Kyle then rejoined his local side Weymouth on loan until the end of the season. Playing eight times while with Weymouth, one bright spot as the Terras were relegated to the Conference South.

In total, Kyle only played two games for the Dragons, both last August.

He leaves with our best wishes and we hope he will soon be settled with a new club.

Tuesday 4th June 2009

Nat Brown has revealed he wants to leave the club so he can get first team football and not just sit and languish in the reserves. Personally I don`t think Matt has had much of a look in at Wrexham and maybe if he had had a decent look in then he would have made the centre back position his own as every time I saw him play, he always played quite a decent game so not sure if I am glad he is leaving or gutted. It`s one of them.

Tuesday 4th June 2009

Mark has signed a 12 month contract with a clause in it, which states that if after 4 months he has not done enough then Wrexham can tear up his contract and send Mark on his way.

Tuesday 19th May 2009

Levi Macken & Shaun Walley have both been released by Wrexham manager Dean Saunders. Both of them spent most of last season on loan at York City and Southport respectively but have been told they are no longer required at Wrexham. I am glad to see them both go as I thought both of them were uselesss footballers and have been very fortunate to be given a chance to play football for a living. If I was them I suggest they start looking for a proper job because they never going to make a decent living out of football as they are not good enough.

14th May 2009

Nathan Fairhurst joins Wrexham full time.

MIDFIELD player Nathan Fairhurst believes he has made the right choice by joining Wrexham, rather than staying with Championship club Preston North End.

The 19-year-old says the opportunity to play regular first team football with the Dragons is a better option rather than sit on the bench or play reserve team football at Preston where he was offered a new contract. I wish Nathan all the best and am sure that if he has a successful season then there will be a host of clubs trying to get his signature as he is too good to be playing non league football for more than a season.

Tuesday 5th May 2009

Jefferson Louis has left Wrexham by mutual consent with a year still left on his contract. The laziest footballer I have ever had the misfortune to watch play for Wrexham

Wednesday 29th April 2009

Gavin Ward - Keeper near the end of his career who served us well for 2 years.

Christian Gyan - The only match I seen him play, he was subbed at half time as he was shocking.

Anthony Williams - People claim he kept Wrexham in the league the season they beat Boston on the last day but he played about 12 games after coming in on loan and he was very lucky as all the shots in those 12 games came at a decent height and mae him look a better keeper than he was. Useless and good riddance.

Chris Marriott - Never saw him play.

Simon Spender - The promise he had as a youngster was never seen and was not good enough for Wrexham. Only reason he got a run in the team because Brian Little and Brian Carey don`t have a clue about playing football the proper way and thought he was the answer to someone with a bit of skill taking on players.

Wrexham sign winger Jamie McCluskey

Powered by Picsearch

Wrexham manager Dean Saunders yesterday strengthened his promotion-chasing squad by signing winger Jamie McCluskey and he is actively pursuing yet more targets to keep his players fresh for the final 10 weeks of the season.

Saunders said new boy McCluskey faced a battle for selection, but predicted he would quickly become a crowd-pleaser at the Racecourse.

"Jamie has joined us until the end of the season and if he does well we will give him a new deal next season.

"He has not played for a long time but the fans will love watching him. He is a very talented young player, but his first job is to force his way into the team. Once he has done that I’m sure he will become a crowd favourite."

McCluskey, at one time the youngest ever player to feature in the Scottish Premier League when at Hibernian, hopes his move to the Racecourse will finally launch a career blighted by injury. A twice-broken foot was at the root of the problem, but the 21-year old Scot is optimistic that the worst is behind him.

"I have only been here a week and a half and I’ve only trained with the other lads for three days," he said.

"This is a big opportunity for me to get back to playing regular football and I owe that to the manager and his staff who have all been great with me. I have been to Partizan Belgrade in Serbia and Catania in Italy, but I have not played for a year.

"Wrexham are obviously doing well, but I would not have signed for them unless I felt I had something to offer and I’ll be doing my best to break into the first team as quickly as possible."

17th February Andrew Crofts signs on as a Wrexham player Andrew Crofts

Wrexham FC sign Andrew Crofts

DEAN SAUNDERS has lured Wales star Andrew Crofts to the Racecourse – but the midfielder couldn’t prevent Wrexham slipping to a 2-1 defeat at Burton Albion last night.

Crofts, who has 12 international caps, made his debut in the Pirelli Stadium loss after completing a whirlwind loan switch from League Two side Gillingham hours before the game.

The signing provided Saunders some consolation after watching his side throw away a 1-0 advantage against the league leaders, with Jefferson Louis opening the scoring on 23 minutes.

And the manager believes Crofts has a glittering career ahead of him, having watched the midfielder at close quarters while on international duty with Wales.

In dispute with his club Gillingham, where his contract expires at the end of the season, the 24-year old has joined the Dragons until the end of the season in order to play regular first team football.

And the Racecourse boss is delighted to have secured the player’s services for Wrexham’s bid to bounce back into the Football League at the first attempt.

“He’s coming to help us in this final push for promotion,” said Saunders.

“I know his qualities from working with him at Wales and this boy could end up playing in the Premiership. He played against Holland last summer, where he made a good impression on the coaching staff.

“This is a major coup for us and shows the ambition of the chairman and myself in trying get Wrexham promoted out of this league.

“Andrew’s presence brings experience and strength to the squad and he will bring the best out of our younger players. He is a good, solid character and certainly no fancy-dan player because he rolls his sleeves up and gets stuck in.

“Andrew will definitely move onto better things. But it shows the boy’s character that he is will to come and help a Welsh club in the short term. He really is doing us a big favour.

“Both John Toshack and myself advised the player that a move to Wrexham would be a big help to both him and Welsh football.”

Crofts has also won under 19 and under 21 honours and was Gillingham’s player of the year last season. He made nearly 200 appearances for the Kent club, scoring 17 goals.

At 6 foot 3 he should be able to handle anything in the air which is what we desperately need. How many times have we lost to set pieces is un-real so hopefully this should put a stop to that. Assoumani signs for DragonsWrexham have announced the signing of defender Mansour Assoumani for the remainder of the season.Mansour is 28,and was born in Nice, France. He is 6 feet 2 inches and can play in central defence or right back. Assoumani began his career with French club Montpellier, making 74 appearances and scoring 4 goals in a five year stay. He has also played for German second division clubs Saarbrucken and Sportfreunde Siegen.In December 2008, Assoumani was offered a one month contract with First division Leeds United. He made one appearance while at Elland road, Playing in the 3-1 defeat against Milton Keynes Dons.Mansour was released by Leeds in January 2009, and trained with Crewe Alexandra but failed to secure a contract. At last we have some real height in our defence which is what we desperately required. I have now lost count of the number of players we have signed permanently or got on loan in the last two years. Surely we must be talking over 50 players. Geoff Moss surely must be congratulated on the money he has spent since taking over at Wrexham or sent to the nearest mental institution and strapped to the chair for his own well being and mental health because let`s face it, who else would have ploughed the amount of money into Wrexham during the last year or so. We must have had more players than Pamela Anderson has had ,well you know what she has had.

DRAGONS SIGN FRENCH DEFENDER06/02/2009French central defender Aurelien Collin, who played nineteen matches for Scottish League side Gretna last season, has signed for Blue Square Premier club Wrexham until the end of the season. Collin (pictured) joined Gretna from Spanish La Liga club Mallorca in August 2007, signing a two-year contract with the club, but he only made 19 appearances before he was released by the then-SPL club before the end of last season. Trials at Championship clubs Blackpool, Preston North End and Wolves failed to lead to a permanent deal being offered, and Collin signed a one-year contract at Greek Premier League side Panserraikos. "He's played at a higher level, he's aggressive and he's another centre half," said Wrexham manager Dean Saunders, who saw defenders Steve Evans and Shaun Pejic leave the club my mutual consent this week.
