Default Alex Reid

What a pro and I wish he were here for longer than 2 months!! All the stress of signing followed by being benched to then score on debut but know that you are on your way in two months...what a day for the lad but oh how well he seems to have taken to it! Great attitude (despite clearly being told what to say in his interview - come in, work hard, score goals and play attractive football), looked comfortable and if he carries on the way he's started will be a home favourite despite his short time with us. Good on Fleetwood for agreeing to send him to us, we are no threat to them at present and have a professional set up so a good placement opportunity for any aspiring professional IMHO. Well done DK, now just go get an extension as this is the sort of talent we need to see playing up front week in week out. Would like to see him with Boden as think they could be seriously potent - Boden's touch and work rate with a young pacy, hungry and accurate striker alongside him....tasty!!! COYR, difficult start against fellow challengers and away fixtures from afar but they will have to do the return leg at some time this season so best get the travel out of the way then focus on making others pay when they come to the fortress!!

Looks a great signing. If he continues in this vein hopefully we can extend the loan. So lively, moving, looking to break, turn defenders. Will he get the service though?

Is it only 2 months? I presume he's on the bench at best at Fl££twood. Would a bench and their massive crowds keep him there or could we tempt him here with regular games and a modest (in comparison) crowd keep him here?

Fl££twood attracted 3,623 to their opening fixture, welcome to the big time Alex!

30 mins on the pitch and getting so much applause?

if he plays and doesnt score on weekend.. or misses a couple of sitters most of te fans will want his head on a block.

i hope he continues as he started last night.. but i feel its a tad early to make a statue for him just yet

looks promising and obviously eager to do well. but time will tell when he settles in if still has the same work ethic

Its funny because I had a similar thought. He looked a real livewire when he came on. Looked to get in behind and in general looked a real handful. Took his goal well, and was wrongly called offside for a would be one on one.

But I also watched him get out jumped for about 10 headers, and thought if hadn't have scored, what the reaction would of been, despite the fact that clearly isnt his stength. Us Wrexham fans can be a fickle bunch.

Got to applaude the goal winning goal scorer a little. If he'd scored the 4th of 4 goals it'd be a different story.

Still remember that performance TBJ put in and got MOM against Luton with the stands chanting his name, all down hill from there.

And 1700 to their second. That's league one for you I guess.
