Think Lee Fowler deserves a mention. Regardless of people's feelings towards him and the few games he played, he was effortlessly good at times

One wonders what they called the tech end before the the tech was built in early 50's.

I was at that game, Albert Kinsey scored a goal in front of the kop that almost burst the net

Wonder who will be the Wrexham legends of this era? Like, if there are fundraising events 20/30/40 years from now, who will be the "legends" who will speak at them??

Was it evident he was going to go on to better things

You take it from me for what you would call a local lad from the Welsh Coast he turned out to be one of our best ever number 9. A great header of a ball and a guy who would put himself around. Not a timid number 9. He left us to join Bolton and enjoyed fantastic times with both Newcastle and Man City. At Newcastle, he was known as the Mighty Wyn, which was a popular song called the Mighty Quinn at the time. He was well thought of at Newcastle and remains an hero that has worn the coveted number 9 shirt. Not bad wearing the Welsh shirt either!

Does anyone on here remember someone called Stanley Matthews playing for Wrexham.

Entertainers - Ian Moir, Bobby Shinton & Lee Trundle.

Great goals - Graham Whittle.

Legend - Arfon Griffiths

My favourite one club (490 games for Wxm FC) man, captain of our best team & 3 caps Wales - Gareth Davis.

The one man nobody has mentioned from that great 70's side, Mel Sutton. He made Wrexhams midfield. No frills but he never wasted a ball and brought the best out of the flair players. You don't need a team of fancy Dans just a balance and he provided it.
