Notts County falter at last...

[Cowbridge Blue]

Like Wrexham, they've kept on winning until this afternoon's 1 - 2 home defeat to Dagenham.

So Wrexham, (beat Dorking 3 - 1 at home), are 2 points behind County with 2 games in hand. First of those games in hand is Tuesday night at home to Chesterfield who are currently 5th but haven't won any of their last 5 (3 draws). Wrexham also have Notts County to play at home in April. County's slip should put a spring in Wrexham's step for the run-in

Meanwhile Wrexham have added to their squad by signing winger Ryan Barnett, 23, from Solihull for an undisclosed fee (how can they do that?) https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/64763440

I don't quite understand it either. I don't hate Wrexham, and i wouldn't mind them getting back into league football, but i wouldn't mind Notts County getting back up as well.

Tough on the knobheads sucking it up.
It's all that is wrong with modern football.

I really want Notts Co to go up as oldest League club and disappointed they lost today. I'd prefer Wrexham to go up before the newer clubs but just as happy if Chesterfield or Southend go up instead.

I'd rather Wrexham get in than Notts County, but it won't bother me if they don't.

What get's on my nerves is all this "good for Welsh football" bollocks. Because kids in Wales won't play football if Newport or Wrexham aren't in the league?

I suppose the theory is the higher up they are in the league system the more money for investment in youth coaching, facilities etc for local kids so they'll develop more quality players for Wales

Re: Notts County falter at last...

I’ve got a personal interest as I contributed and travelled along with several coach loads of City fans when Wrexham were in financial trouble. I hope they & Notts County both get promoted as they’re miles ahead of the rest of the division

There may be some truth to that. But how many of our "Golden Generation" came through Welsh youth systems? The best Welsh player any of us have ever seen started at Southampton.

The biggest clubs have always spent the most money haven't they?

6 of the starting XI v Belgium came through at Welsh clubs and I doubt Ashley Williams would have become the player he did without Swansea.

We'll always have players come through at English clubs, but Cardiff & Swansea are vital for the Welsh national team at senior and youth level. If Wrexham can add to that and start producing some players then it surely can't be bad for Welsh football?

You lost your mind before, when I said factory jobs are shits. You are bang out of order for calling people who like Wrexham knobheads...

The higher up the league system more of our clubs are maybe these players won't go to Southampton ;)
