    If it goes to form Wrexham win their game in hand the gap is 6 points with 9 left to play for. But according to rjk that's nothing major.

      One of them have Barnet away, that could be a tricky one……

            Re: Wrexham

            I feel conflicted about the Wrexham 'revival'

            I think it's a nice story and like the attention Wales is getting is positive

            Also, being a previous avid Wales away supporter, city and Wrexham have always gotten on well.

            However, I am petty and childish enough to still remember our battles with them in the 4th division and the injury Gary Bennett caused to Carl Dale which effectively ended his career with us (he was never the same).

            Also, I'm also a little jealous of how engaged their owners are in the project while ours seem to bounce from one problem to another.

            Overall - I hope they go up, but I wouldn't lose sleep if they don't continue to shoot up the leagues after this season.

              Look forward to the follow-up series, if only they'd got an American Manager it would be like a real-life nonleague Ted Lasso.

                They couldn't that's the thing, they look good because they are in an amateur League.

                  All but 2 of the clubs are professional and about half have played in the EFL at some point over the last 20 years

                    I agree they wouldn't "smash" City. Judging on their performances against Coventry and Sheffield United I'd fancy the gogs to win.

                      Cup games mean very little. Sheffield and Coventry both played heavily rotated teams and were both down to 10 men for most of the second half.

                        Neither put out heavily rotated teams. Goalkeeper and Ndiaye (who came on) aside Sheffield Utd played their firsts, the only big name missing for Coventry was Gyokeres (who came on after half an hour)

                          Checking the starting line ups. For Coventry Moore has 4 starts all season. Burroughs 5, Tavares 2, Waghorn 4, Kelly’s only start of the season was the Wrexham game.

                          That’s including all the games they’ve played since too. 5 of their starting line up have 16 starts between them all season. Only 3 players started the Wrexham game out of Coventry’s top 10 appearance holders.

                          I’ll take your word on the Sheffield game, from the line ups I recognise most of the names.

                          Cup games still don’t mean much in terms of quality. There’s always upsets and as bad as we are, if we played Wrexham 10 times I’m confident we’d only lose once or twice. They’re a top end League 2 team.

                            Bidwell, Palmer, Rose, Panzo, Dabo & Sheaf are all first team players for Coventry, Gyokeres, O'Hare, Allen & Hamer all came on with plenty of the game to go, that's practically their first team, goalkeeper aside. I guess we have different view on what a heavily rotated side is but Coventry put out a good side against Wrexham and still got beat, I doubt our lot would be particularly comfortable against Wrexham at the minute

                              Interesting you have the gogs as a top end League 2 team.

                              Where do you see City at?

                              Genuine question.

                                I’m the opposite to you regarding Wrexham at Wales away games , as my lot were involved in a big row with them in Belgium in 1992 and we ended up being deported on the ferry with them. I’ve always thought they were sly and used to try it on when they had superior numbers.

                                So from that perspective I want Notts County to go up and in my eyes they are the bigger club.
