It might just be where I read, but I don't really see many of their fans being dickheads on socials either. Seem like a good bunch.

No issue with Wrexham at all, and it would be good for football if they somehow ended up all of the way to the promised land in a few seasons.

I don't want them to do well at all & would luv them to get relegated - hate the fawning over them by SKY etc as if they've gone through tremendous hardship to end up a stones throw away from the Prem
Plus the national creaming of everyones collective pants would be increased tenfold if they did actually make it to the Prem - it'd be hilarious if they went down - sod em

They have gone through tremendous hardship. Whatever your opinion of them that's indisputable

I don't get this Doyle is shit. He was brilliant with us, promoted with Leicester, played well for Norwich and crucially Man City put in a buy back clause. They obviously feel he may be good enough for the top of the Prem in a couple of seasons.
Ok he has started slowly in Wales, but Wrexham have a whole new set of players still bedding in.
I take him, but out of our price range at present.

He wasn't out of our price range, pretty sure we bid more for Charlie Hughes. We either never actually really wanted him, thought the deal Man City wanted was awful or a bit of both.

Never said we wanted or tried to get him. Said I would like him back.
His wages are out of our price range unless something changes in January, and King decides to break the structure, which he would not do for O'Hare.

He was right not to for O'Hare and would be right not to for Doyle too. If he does it in Jan it'll be for someone we see as having Prem potential, although I think he'll stick to the structure until we were to get there.

I think a back 4 will work better against Wrexham, Moore is pretty much upfront on his own we don’t need 3 CB. They play 3 in midfield so Allen and Grimes could get over ran.

They were hanging on for dear life once Boro woke up, the problem for Boro was it took them until the last 10-20 minutes to do that. There was a whiff of complacency on Saturday which FL will hopefully iron out going into this one.
Sorry can't let this go, what has woke got to do with it?

Again, no one has ever said we would go for Doyle, particularly in January and his contract would prevent his sale anyway. 25% sell on and Man City clause. Pep clearly thinks Doyle may have Prem potential, hence the clause.
With O'Hare, the timing screwed us. No one is giving a player a contract coming back from an ACL. When he proved his fitness, he was offered a way better deal than we could match.
Viveash wanted to keep O'Hare. That's good enough for me,

O'Hare wouldn't even get in our best 11 now, having him as highest earner would be madness. I'm also glad we didn't bother with Doyle, that's it really. Man City got his contract claused up to the max to cover themselves, its an immoral way of dealing really but Wrexham were stupid enough to do it.

They play 631?
