    Having watched Charlton Live/Charlton Chronicles, the guests they got on were great. Think the original hardcore Wrexham fans are fine, its just the Johnny come lately fans that are unbearable.
  • I’m ready for Wrexham to find the level where they start losing a load of games. Those fans need a dose of reality quickly. Hollywood has gone to their heads.

    Hopefully it'll be second season syndrome in League One!!

    To be fair i thought this would be this season, but i underestimated just how shit this league is. As proven by us being terrible for months and having a chance of automatic promotion with 2 games left.

    If they do go up again then surely, SURELY, next year is the year they start losing a lot. They bring in a lot of revenue but this is going to be peanuts compared to the parachute payment teams.

    Honestly they'd need new investors to even try and stay up , Reynolds and McElhaney aren't Championship owner rich and that squad would need a complete overhaul even moreso than we would need ourselves.

  • Their team is proper average, they've been helped this season by having continuity and the league being pony.

    When you are chasing, there is much less pressure on you.
    Except we're the ones for whom only a win  keeps us in with a chance of automatics. Handled the pressure better than Wycombe on Monday, as Wrexham did in beating Blackpool, who many on here thought wouldn't win that game. 

    Their fans are right in saying we have to go all out for it. We do. It's all or nothing for us in the fight for automatics. More pressure on us, and if the fans don't believe that, our manager and players certainly do even if they try to play it down. 
    That second paragraph sort of implies the Wrexham fans think their team doesn’t need to go all out at home and can sit back and counter attack. That won’t go down well if the home ends are full of home ‘fans’ expecting a day of glory.
    Clearly the Wycombe game may have an impact on this, not necessarily tactically but mentally for Wrexham. Then there is also the question of their respect for us and what we can do. We tend not to think in this way about our side and focus on the opposition but forget that is what the opposition do too.

    I think we set up to compete against Wycombe all over the pitch and suspect that will be the philosophy against Wrexham. Even though we need to win the game, I would expect us not to go to gung ho and we know if we keep them out we only need to take one of our chances.
    Agreed. If Wycombe lose earlier, then a draw against us would likely see Wrexham finish second as they'd see us off and be three points clear of Wycombe with one to play.  Could make for a cagey affair, both going sideways and backwards for 85 with both trying to sneak it late on.

    I'm not really expecting that tbh 😉

    @Callumcafc nowhere have I said Wrexham aren't under pressure, just not more than us.
    They’ve been top two all season, their fans expected it, the media expect it, their investors expect it. 

    We’ve gatecrashed their party and pocketting the cakes by comparison.
  • This may have been asked and answered earlier but was NJ working at Charlton when Parky was manager?

    Nope... Jones only joined us in 2012

    One thing I have just picked up from a scan of their forum is someone thinks they saw us training in Cheshire yesterday. That's an interesting move going up so early and a decent financial commitment too
    Reading the comments of some of their fans they don't come across as a subset of Mensa members so they probably watched Chorlton instead.

    Well doesn’t look like we were in Cheshire yesterday so wonder who they saw

    Not much to it, but that’s a great little insight into Kanye and his attitude. We really have got a gem on our hands and I can only hope it’s us he’s playing for in the Championship and beyond after this season. Top lad. 
  • I have never read so much bollox about in advance of this match, they much have very thin skins in Wales. 
  • Haven’t read their forum, but feeling optimistic about this one. Everything seems to be clicking at the right time.   

    And I think we’ll go for it, rather than being a cagey affair.  Why not?   Have to score and have to win.  

    1-3.
