He then goes on to mention how he got a trial with Wrexham AFC, and his trial game against Graham cooper (cooperman) and working with the late Cliff Sear, we chat about making his league debut away at Grimsby, replacing Welsh legend Joey Jones who had broken his ankle in the game, and how joey didn't want to stay in a hospital in Lincolnshire, he travelled home on the team bus instead.

Waynne then moves on to tell us about playing for Brian flynn, who had replaced Dixie Mcneil as manager and what his relationship was like with him, and also the Pre and Post match routine compared to today’s modern footballer.
He then goes on talk about players he played with in his first spell with the club, Including Mickey Thomas, Mike lake and steve Watkin.

Another subject we talk about is the Arsenal and West Ham FA Cup games from 1992, and the squad staying in Rossett Hall Hotel the night before the Arsenal games, his feeling before and during the game, the free kick taken my Mickey Thomas, and his thoughts on Steve watkin scoring the winning goal, ensuring the team go down in folklore. Then getting another plum draw this time to play at Upton Park in the East end of London, where lots of his family were from.
