That table should remind us all that the reason why we played Gazball when we had Bayo was because it was astonishingly effective. Look at those assist numbers alongside his goals. When you remember that all our opponents knew how we set up and played and still couldn’t stop it, it seems even more remarkable to me.

Low's been training this week.

Give the needle a tap.

He must be feeling better thank goodness

Agreed - they have been the definition of spawny up to now.

Having seen the whole division, I actually would place Wrexham below Birmingham, ourselves, Stockport, Mansfield, Huddersfield and Charlton, at least.

I've looked through the FA regulations and can't see anything that says this.

53.2.2

Subject to the proviso that the duration of a Standard Loan must be the time between two Transfer Windows, Standard Loans can be for half a Season or a full Season. Any recall clause requiring the early termination of a Standard Loan can only be included in a full Season Standard Loan and this can only be activated during the second (January) Transfer Window. Any other early termination of a Standard Loan must be by way of a mutual agreement in writing (including by way of a recall clause within the Standard Loan Agreement) between both Clubs and the Player but can only be completed after the expiry of 28 days and only during a Transfer Window.

if you look closely up to the top of Hillbottom that’s the Premier League you can see poking through the mist

leahy ? lol

I do not claim to be in the know about any of the characters involved or the clubs business plans so can only make my own assessment of evens.

I do not subscribe to either the 'he is not our man', or the 'didn't have the bottle to sack him' theories. If the intention was to remove MB at the beginning it would have happened. The financial cost was a drop in the ocean compared to the money spent on the club to date. It didn't happen. Nor did it happen at the end of last season when a fair number of fans displayed their loyalty to a 20 year servant of the club by calling for his head.

As I see it Dan Rice et al have been employed to oversee the business side of WWFC and are answerable for how the money is spent. MB was employed to oversee first team squad footballing matters. In between is a grey area where the borders came under dispute, and it is likely that both sides could have handled the matter of where the lines are drawn, a lot better. MB had the choice of settling for the boundaries that were set, or moving on. He chose the latter.

Matt has used the event to take a step up, and goes with my gratitude and best wishes for the future. TBH I do not expect him to be at Luton in three and a half years time. Either he will fail to meet expectations and be moved on, or he will be a highly successful and even a bigger fish will come calling.

Is WWFC the club I started supporting, absolutely not! I started watching WW in the 1950's and I have lost count of the changes, but I go with the flow. There have been ups and downs, and I'm sure there will be more. Who knows where the current chapter will lead.
