.instead of leaving with ten minutes to go…..again.

They have every right to leave whenever they see fit....again! Maybe they're all 'mongs' (your word not mine).

No, that was reserved for Davy for his stupid post earlier.

Take it you’re one of those who scarpered early again then. Fantastic support 👍

EP, you are right, I am 😁

Absolutely not, but had I left early, what business is it of yours? Instead of having a go at those that attend, maybe turn your attention to those that never do (there are plenty on here).

I’d give our home support 1/10 today.
Sat in the Kop I couldn’t believe the lack of noise.
Normally the songs ring down the stand and gain momentum but today it was just flat.
It was the flattest atmosphere in the Kop for a long time.
Wrexham fans put us to shame.

We thought this too. Nothing seemed to get going. That's can't have helped.

A wee bit generous with the Nemane rating.A 5 at best would suffice. Unfortunately he wasted so many promising positions with poor crosses or not crossing at all when he should.
The rest seem fair enough ratings.

I think the defence did OK.

Slocombe 7.5 (played well. My partners son's view is he is a very good goalkeeper and I agree. I think he was just behind Jones for MoM).
Macari 7 (looks very assured for a young chap. Will get better too with experience)
Baldwin 7.5
Cameron 7 (all the defence were largely sound. Wrexham asked more questions of our defence than we did of there's. Balwin was the pick of the 3 though)
Palmer 6 / 7 ( I thought he was quiet my partners son thought he played very well and we lost a lot when he went off)
O'Brien 6 (did OK)
Nemane 6 (did ok - was more effective than Austin)
Crowley 6 (could have attacked the space in the centre of the goal more and was predictable, but that could have been leveled at all or attacking players, bar Jones to some extent)
McGoldrick 7 (looked more creative than some others but missed a couple of chances)
Jones 8 (excellent again)
Langstaff 5 (was well marshaled by their defence and kept very quiet)

Subs:

Austin 5 (what that we offered down the right dried up when he came in.)
Randall 5 (was anonymous when he came in)

Traffic 1 - a crash on the M1 at Northampton meant we missed the start
Weather 1 - the rain on the drive back to Thanet was horrendous and made progress very slow.

It almost felt like we were overwhelmed by the noise Wrexham were making, or we just didn’t feel confident about the game???
Very disappointing.

No coincedence our 2 home defeats have come with big backing in the away stand. Personally I'd like us to limit it to the required 10% and try and open a block to home fans. There were plenty of home supporters who couldn't get tickets for both matches.
