    In the interests of fair play surely that should mean we get a six point bonus which would have given us automatic promotion.

    Or does it suggest we are too bloody nice?

    I like it. But yeah, it probably means we're too nice.

    Well interesting point Elite look at our goal that was chalked off against Barrow their players went charging to ref even though flag didnt go up.

    Our players might have had a polite word then trotted to half way line.

    We defo need more muscle for sure but days of a Harding crunching players are gone too much risk of a red card.

    I've never seen anything like that before. However, remember the equaliser we scored against Gillingham at ML when the lino flagged about 20s after we scored? Had we protested in the same manner would that have affected the decision?

    I am definitely not an advocate for that kind of behaviour. At the Barrow game, that's a classic situation where the ref should be booking everyone for surrounding him and the lino, not entertaining their protests. Unfortunately, human nature doesn't follow those rules.

    James McClean seems lovely for sure.

    Different interpretations of the Laws for Wrexham ,especially at The Horse Track.
    Who can recall Mullin mule kicking JJ twice last season directly in front of the assistant. Of course the assistant persuaded the ref that Mullin and JJ should both receive a yellow card.

    True. McClean was on a yellow when he shouted at the linesman against Stockport. Instead of getting a second yellow, he succeeded in bullying the official into giving a penalty. They won one-nil, giving them a three-point swing over promotion rivals Stockport.
