Are we now stronger under Graham Barrow's leadership ? - RedPassion.co.uk

Red Light · 30th December 2018, 16.07:17

Are we now in a better place since the snake slithered away up the River Severn to Shropshire ?

The young apprentice has departed and been replaced by Sir Graham - a wise old owl who has done it all before.

Critically he has retained and added to a solid very experienced supporting backroom staff.

Carl Darlington is still here.

Jussi Jaaskalainen with his 56 International Finland caps hasn’t departed as some expected and is still providing top quality keeper coaching.

An assistant in Mike Newell has landed with Premier league experience - a striker who scored goals and can hopefully influence our players to do the same - was banging 5 past Salford a coincidence ?

I liken our recent changes being similar to those of Manchester United - take someone out of the equation and the rest of the club starts to glow and thrive.

So, since Sir Graham took over the ships wheel have we moved up a notch and are now in a better overall place with an improved chance of success ?

I believe we are, and suggest player recruitment has and will improve - discuss.

I feel Spencer Harris was correct when he stated 'exciting times' lie ahead - the management change could have rocked other clubs but appear to have come through it even stronger than we were previously.

We will all see in January how good he is.

Fingers crossed we retain and recruit the right players.

I think Wrexham are in better position as long as they can keep the loan players .I think Barrow is a honest and descent man I think that goes a long way in whatever you do .

Well he was clearly responsible for bringing in Lawlor and Tollitt. So that’s a good indication. He’s basically been a scout in the past year, he’ll know everyone. Watch the tunnel cam, it seems like he knows the names of every good opposition player.

I hope the slithering snake takes his team slithering down the table and hopefully beat his rattling arse in League two next year. Love to hear him hissing as he looses his job and has to accept going back to coaching kids.

Far too soon to say. It's a good start though.

Ask again once we've recruited in January.

The important point ,for me, is we are not weaker. GB has helped us to sustain the loss of our manager - we all know what happened last time...

This is key. We all know it

Away form and performances need to improve and its going to be a tough run in with these other teams.
