That was an excellent half from us. Deserved the lead. EMC very good. Penalty decision; their bloke falls into Wright sending him down. I can see why the ref didn't give it but we're really not getting those decisions this season. And the ref was absolutely played by their forward to get...

We have a lot more syllables in defence than normal.

They do seem to scratch results where all the stats are hopelessly against them. I don't really know what that says.

There's a depressing resurgence of the mullet, I notice. Kids, it looked fucking awful in the 80s, learn from the mistakes of your forebears.

Props to them for using the Norman Greenbaum version of Spirit in the Sky. Quite like that, actually, and a nice (and accurate) little jibe in there. Definitely not a derby, though. I can imagine getting to Swansea from Wrexham is an absolute pain in the arse.

Wrexham's rivals have traditionally been the English border clubs; Chester and to a lesser extent Shrewsbury. One of those amusing triangles of animosity that you get in football. I don't really know if Swansea or Cardiff care about them. They'll probably more take the piss out of each other...

For the diminutive Birmingham supporter in your life. For the most part, I liked our Hummel ones; it was just the brown trim around the sole. If that had have been white, they'd have been a winner.

Viewing that on my phone, I genuinely thought Neeson was Lampard.

This definitely deserves more love.

On the twelfth day of Christmas, Peter Ndlovu sent to me Twelve games unbeaten, David Pipers piping, Kilcline a-hacking, Ben Sheaf out injured, Small Jamie Allens, Swansea getting beaten, But not fucking Preston, FAT FUCKING RON, Peter Billing's turd, Three benched Bens, Two Haji Wrights, Richie...

That's good praise, but even if they're a supporter of 50 years plus, this is a higher level than they've seen their club play at before. I mean, Mickey Thomas, Joey Jones and the like, but they were a good while ago now.

O Come, Howley Faithful.

He could run very quickly in a straight line, but that was about it.

Defensive midfield's all about energy, timing and positioning, not brute force. Kante, best defensive midfielder of his generation, and a wisp of a man. Makelele and Deschamps, who pretty much defined the role, were hardly giants, either. ETA: although obviously what drove their success was...

One of the less creditable rumours of recent times. Perhaps along with Balotelli. 😂 I could see why West Ham would want him, tbf. He's the quality to play at that level, I think, and all strikers go through peaks and troughs, so I don't think a minor drought would put a club off. But to me...

Surely no player will be offered a new contract until we know what division we are playing in next season?

I don't buy this being down to agitating for a move. One way or another, Wright's going to be looking for a new contract in the summer.
