    True. Our desire to beat them was because there was only one auto promotion place and we were going head to head for it.

    But I genuinely think the whole 'Wrexham story' is a motivating factor for most clubs that play against them, including us to an extent. I think the level of publicity they get and all the American sports fans who have jumped on the bandwagon just gets people riled. Even bigger clubs - look at Sheffield United in the FA Cup last season.

    Definitely - To be fair, I do think they are trying to temper this and the life stories running in parallel, should put everything in context - Like I said earlier, the autism piece was pretty humbling and certainly puts things into perspective..
