Woke up feeling positive last Saturday and changed my Yeovil prediction from a 1-1 to a 2-1.

Woke up feeling the same today so changed my 1-0 prediction for the Woking game to 1-2. Also stuck a tenner on the win.

Dammed expensive this optimism.

Has he ever been a regular anywhere?

[MK Iron]

Bottom rung probably.

[MK Iron]

Don’t get Awaywego started on those train drivers again.

I think the correct answer is b but substantially true of the other 2.

Not sure Glanford Park was ever one of the best though.

I thought Chris Martin was giving him a lift home.

It would be good to hear from someone who actually saw the game.

Forgot to mention Nuttall getting a couple of goal is no bad thing.

Let’s hope the first half was a brief homage to the last 4 seasons of slapstick defending.

Difficult to tell from 75 minutes of radio commentary but some positives.

We have a plan B.

A brief return to 4-4-2. In my view the right tactics for this level.

We came back and gave it a go.

Also I see Yeovil held Wrexham so they are not such a poor team.

[MK Iron]

Maybe the bookies have spotted we have had one away win in the last season and a half.

That was at fellow basket case club Oldham.

35 degrees predicted in Maidenhead at match time. Was contemplating a late run down there tomorrow but saw that temperature and decided to have an extended drinks break instead.

Can we keep our political views and prejudices on the Non Football forum please?

Did anyone seriously think he would suddenly turn into a quietly walk off into the sunset kind of guy?

There may well be more pain to come but there is absolutely nothing any of us can do about it.

Early days but the vast improvements on and off the field suggest he is having no input to the day to day running of the club. Time to put the ownership issue on the back burner and get behind Lee and Keith in their efforts to turn us back into a football club.

[MK Iron]

If you had to choose one it would be close. 2 hours listening to Coldplay or 3 hours listening to Awaywego.

Awaywego just wins it for me.

[MK Iron]

Probably because they can. Also Parkinson will only get one more season to deliver promotion.

[MK Iron]

Can only think it is Rob Lainton who is their first choice when fit.

Dibble is second choice and Howard third. Don’t think fourth choice Rory is pulling £6k a week but shows the difference in finances between Wrexham and ourselves.

Even in the Swann spending years we never had 4 keepers with League experience and certainly never paid £6k a week even at the top end of League 1.

Anything but the title and automatic promotion is a massive underachievement for Wrexham. Mind you it was last season.

[MK Iron]

If we only get 2 I think we need a centre back and a forward with real pace. Ability to score a goal or 15 if possible.

[MK Iron]

But Swann leaving might be a Lightyear away.

Nothing wrong with his attitude or work rate when he came and did OK while Hurst was here. Downed tools when Hurst was sacked having had his head turned by Newcastle.

If Hurst had stayed McAtee would already be a Championship player rather than hoping to be one next year. Mind you if Hurst was still here we would still be in the league.

Had 1-1 in the Prediction League all week but a sudden rush of optimism has got me changing it to 2-1.

Not much more than a bus load of die hards from Somerset given it’s on BT so anything in excess of 2,000 is OK.

First game of season factor and the club’s laudable efforts with fan experience encourages me to predict 2,500.

Swann gone before we hit 3,000 without much away support.

[MK Iron]

There wasn’t a mortgage on it then.

Very disappointing take up for this year. Never mind the actual league.

Is it not worth a tenner a year to help with the costs of Bru?

[MK Iron]

Easier to cut and paste from elswhere the following day.

[MK Iron]

Does he play up front?

[MK Iron]

They will probably still play with 11.

[MK Iron]

I think we can assume both Hill and Cox significantly played down just how much of a sh1t show they walked into.

Hill is still getting paid by the astute one and Cox subject to an NDA. It may take a while but I am sure we will hear some horror stories if the great man ever does leave.

Personally I don’t blame Hill. He spent some buttons in January having been forced to let Loft and Onariase go. When it became obvious that sticking plaster was not going to hold he gave the kids a chance to get some experience ready for this season.

His reputation says he can produce competitive team on very low budgets. Well they don’t come much lower than ours in full time professional football so this season is when we see what he can do.

If we spend the season not unduly worried about relegation that will be success. Halfwayish and the man is very good. If we even threaten the playoff positions he is a fecking genius.

I reckon only Beeston and Nuttall likely to start from the team that waved the white flag so vigorously at Bristol.

On that basis I am going to be optimistic until proved otherwise.
