Hope there are plenty of stewards (and boys in blue) to keep things on track this evening given, I'm betting, there'll be quite a number of away fans in the home areas.
Hope I'm overthinking this but don't believe so.

Osborne starting is ridiculous.  A game which will be high tempo, silly decision.
We now have some quality and we sacrifice a position.

Not sure why one United lad would be available and not the others.

Jordan's going to have his work cut out up top.

Might be a long evening.

Obviously, Wrexham will come at us 2nd half, but so far at least, it's been quite encouraging.

I have to say the Wrexham Parkinson is an utter classless T**t. It was all he could do to attempt to shake Phil Parkys hand.

Wrexham will probably go up . I won’t miss their manager.

Gutted, well done Alty. Their pressure told too much in the end.

I thought Welch-Hayes was great regardless of his goal, James Jones too (who I've criticised recently) - even the often-maligned Osborne acquitted himself well.

Where's that Jordan been hiding? Seeing him booked for being a sh*thouse took me back to the old days.

On that showing we'll be OK.

Agree re. Welch-Hayes. He offers us something going forward and is a decent defender too. In fact, I felt the entire defence did really well and we're very nearly able to grab a point against a Wrexham team which flattered to deceive to be perfectly honest. Marriott and Lundstram did well too - particularly the former (who was everywhere). Osborne was a weird selection over the likes of Pringle, but hey ho.
The obvious fallback is up front. I love Jordan, don't get me wrong but he ain't scoring and that's a problem. Sinclair and Kaja (when he came on) tried hard but there aren't many goals there either. I'd like to see Linney and Gyasi start the next game, because I feel they will offer more.
We're only 8 points clear of Gateshead - that's the harsh reality with a bad run of fixtures to come.
Hopefully we'll find the right combination up top - then we'll definitely be okay. Fingers crossed.

Wrexham pay a lot of money but appear to have one tactic long throws and corners into the box and pick up the scraps.

We played the better football but just couldn't finish off our chances. If only we'd started with a striker who scores goals.

On the positive side Cashman looked very good especially in the first half.

Linney and Gyasi are the two players who can’t play in our next game.

Can’t be getting onto players before the games even started. Thought he was really solid today, showed his quality with a few raking balls out to MWH in the 1st half. He only made 2 fouls today aswell which suprised be the most! Not sure what he was doing with a slide tackle in the second half though.

Cashman looked class - especially that ball he played to Sinclair.  Had echoes of a head-down, tearing through defences, Chris Sharratt at times too. Happy with that.
