    Those who liked seeing pigs fly and thought Warnock would be interested in dropping this far down, will be upset to see that he is supposedly joining QPR again until the end of the season.

    Don’t take the P out of fans for wanting the best for our club. Long shot of course, but we are beginning to look like the proverbial losers. I have been watching City mainly in the 4th Division since 1967. It doesn’t get any easier I can tell you. I am just about done, the lack of professionalism that is running through our club is the biggest reason we are in this mess.

    However, the way fans are treated by this club is a disgrace. We have had no statement from the owner or club, apart from an instagram post from Rupp wagging his finger at fans for not believing in the team after the Newport game which shows how naive he is about football, one win does not make a summer.

    The fans from this club are exceptional, they have endured serious financial mismanagement that nearly saw the end of this club and being permanent fixtures in the 4th division and still they come in their thousands, plus special mention to away supporters.

    Well said, I remember way back to my first game. Getting attired to go, duffle coat, scarfe, pompom hat, and as I left the house my father shouted "Oh, and dont forget your thick skin, you'll need it!!"

    If we don’t have a new manager by Wycombe I do think there is more going on than meets the eye. Whether that’s sale related or just the fact the club poisonous and we are been swerved. Find it hard to believe near 4 weeks on and we have no perceived plan.

    Think I touched a nerve....

    More pointing out there wasn't a cat in hells chance someone like Warnock would ever drop this low down the pyramid, especially when he's always going to get Champ level offers. Rather than a dig at the fanbase, we obviously all want the best for us and the club.

    Our fans are like most at regional level football clubs in the lower leagues, every so often a 'wise' man or 'wise' men bearing gifts will give you things you only ever dreamed of such BFG or Wrexhams Hollywood men. And to be fair these people could have gone to any club in the lower leagues to spread their football joy but chose us/Wrexham. But apart from those odd gold nuggets most of us understand we are just there to make up the numbers. All we ask for with hands held out like Oliver with his begging bowl is a modicum of strategy that gives us something to hang our dreams on. And as with most offering the dangling carrot, it usually ends with you back to your spiritual home, that for us being either league 2 or if we are lucky, a few seasons in league 1.
    Living the dream eh?

    We do want the best. I think nerves are frayed mine are anyway. I have always been of the view if you don’t reach for the best, the dregs will be what you are served up.

    Dean Brennan continues to do a cracking job at Barnet. He's taken them from a Relegation Battle to 2nd in the table in 2 years. Earned his stripes in the Non-League -

    Perhaps not, but really smacks of bad planning to bring these guys, plus Odusina into the club on long term contracts, hardly play them and then ship them out on loan. Add to that the mediocrity thats been brought in, the club is a complete sh*t show.

    If someone's not announced Monday morning, you can only presume -
    A. We haven't got a clue what we are doing
    B. There's something going on behind the scenes.

    It'll probably be A.

    Who knows?

    Someone posted earlier than Nixon has tweeted something about Clemence being lined up for the Gillingham job and that he also mentioned something about the Bradford situation. Unfortunately, Nixon's tweets are protected so no idea what it was.

    Put a club of similar fan base in this league and they get out within a couple off seasons yet we arse about year after year .

    15k season ticket holders should give you the edge in terms of money and home support but yet again we will fail again
