Is it even a derby if there's 130 odd miles between them?

No chance.

It'd be a nightmare to get from one to the other.

I don't think they even consider each other particular rivals, do they? Swansea hate Cardiff, and Wrexham hate Chester.

Can you only watch this with Rob and Ryan blabbering. It's beyond awful. Total distraction. Wanted Swansea to lose, but can't bear the thought of Wrexham winning with this Skyfawn

No TV broadcaster in history has ever considered Wrexham-Swansea a derby...

Yes, yes, Sky Sports, fine...

That's shocking. You'd be fucking livid if you were a Swansea fan.

When you have to go into a different country to reach them it's not a derby

It’s embarrassing. Gives me more motivation to get out of the same league as Wrexham. More so than then money/ prestige tbh.

Checking back in after a couple of weeks away.

Almost there Coventry fans - well done.

As per, we gave ourselves a bit of daylight to third and then decided to lose at home to Charlton. Its a concern, a few weeks back, we looked at the fixtures. Away games looked tricky and the home games looked a bit more favourable. The task was simple, win the home games and we have a great chance at second. Since then, we have not won a home game, drawing with Oxford and Leicester and losing to Charlton and have won both away games - Birmingham and QPR. Typical Championship inconsistency. The concern comes from the confidence our last three home games will have given teams, sit deep and we really struggle to break them down. We are creating chances, lots of them in fact but we just don't have that finisher in the right position. We need to fix the home form or we can kiss goodbye to second place.

Saturday bring Bristol City, in recent times our bogey team. I think its 6 wins in the last 28 fixtures against them and no wins since 2020 against them. They will put on their best performance since, the home game against us. They have no first choice defenders and two loan players from us not allowed to play so the scene is set for a 1-0 Bristol City win isnt it.

In all seriousness and maybe im still recovering from 3 days in Amsterdam but i think we will get reaction this weekend. I think Hellberg will make some bold changes. Its suggested he does not have a plan B, this isn't true. At Birmingham he surprised everyone playing three at the back with wing backs, he now needs to find something else for the home games.

Interesting couple of weeks upcoming, Us, Millwall and Ipswich all play each other.

Praying we can keep hold of second spot!!

If only you had spent on a proper striker . Conway isn't that . You would be much closer points wise if you had.

Sky have a surrogate derby to compensate for Cardiff not being there . The Wrexham love in has nothing to do with it

Being an actual, proper Wrexham fan must be fucking excruciating these days. Whole club turned into a sideshow by two vain idiots who know embarrassingly little about football.

Conway and Whittaker are good inside forwards but they would be much better off playing with a 9 who can hold it up, put them in and finish chances they create.

I wonder if they'll have a cheeky bid for Simms if they don't go up.

I’m the same.

I just turned over to see what the Rob and Ryan commentary is like. It’s woeful. I could only stand it for about 20 seconds

Should have got Snoop Dogg on as well, his Attenborough commentary was fairly entertaining tbf and much better than this absolute fucking drivel.
