Where is the chelsea video I just saw ???
Has it disappeared??
Can you straighten your bergkamp picture please 😂😂
The National League is just becoming too strong for only 2 teams to be promoted a season, it has to be increased, absolutely dogging over strong competitive teams like wrexham who have the quality to compete in the EFL.
Play-offs are totally unfair and I've never been a fan of them. What's the point of having a league when a handful of teams are entered into a lottery for promotion at the end of the season?
Yay Notts County are relevant again! COYPs!!
It's really cloudy in Aberdeen right now. Just saying.
They'll absolutely get promoted, but next season FFP will will be applied and they'll lose 2/3 of their squad.
Wrexham is cultivating mass. They use to be as tiny as a postage stamp, but they’ll be as big as a skyscraper soon enough.
Honestly play offs are crap and only exist to draw in Premier League fans and generate more money for the EFL. From a sporting point of view, they are a complete nonsense.
Having watched the show, nothing would please me more than Wrexham failing to get promoted.
Apple 🍏
How am I supposed to take this seriously when you tell js that a 5 at the back formation is an attacking style of play, especially when their tactic is to just play long balls
Tired of hearing about em tbh
No respect for a Scottish guy wearing a Brazil shirt Partick thistle on the the other hand
Hopefully they redesign their Logo
How the Fock do you know this bruv 😮
That's why Hollywood bought into Wrexham, they know the payout being promoted. The biggest in all world sports. They don't care about football. Only the profits.
If Wrexham manages to get the promotion this season, I think they will easily reach the Championship League in a few years.
One way they could handle it is to leave the current playoff system in place, but add a caveat that if the second place team is 10 or 15 points clear of the third place team, they are automatically promoted and there would be no playoff in that scenario.
APRIL 10TH !!
EFL League 1, 2 and National League need to sort out relegation/promotion structure! It should be 3 promote from National to L2 and 3 teams relegate, same goes for L2 Winners to L1! It means you have a free following relegation/promotion change of teams out of National League and L2; otherwise you get some teams that will NEVER make L2 because they keep losing in the playoffs after finishing the season in second place.
American question. If "this" current Wrexham club makes it to the Premiership, how many of these current players could we expect to still putting on the Wrexham kit?
I love wrexham, but nottsco deserves promotion. The oldest club in the world deserves to get back to the football league.
They’re in the lead now 🔥
UPDATE as of the March 7th matches. Wrexham is now 4 points clear of Notts County with each team having 10 games remaining.
NOTTS is now in second 4 points behind and they are now level in games played. Should be interesting when they play each other soon.
If Wrexham end up in second place then i reckon they'll bottle it in the play offs. Whoever comes second will lose to either Chesterfield or Woking in the play off.
And now wrexham are 4 points in front of Notts County
Fast forward 2 weeks, and now Wrexham is even in matches and 4 POINTS ahead in the standings!
Not now
Strange that a club with new American owners (Wrexham) is likely to smash the National League points total record currently held by another club with new American owners (Crawley Town). Of course, unlike Wrexham's owners, the clueless cryptobro collective called WAGMI United that runs Crawley Town have been an absolute disaster for the club and they are almost certain to pass Wrexham on their way down to the National League at the end of the season.
Well I am seeing this while Wrexham are at 91 pts, 4 clear off Notts County
where can I watch their game ?
