Barrow, Cheap Option & Danny Ward money

[mol]

This current model seems setup to compete in this division season after season.
We get told that we’re aiming for promotion season after season. But based on very questionable decisions over recent seasons I don’t think promotion is a priority behind the scenes.

I think we are the longest serving National league team now. All other teams have gone up or down over the last 10 years or so.

Yes lots of fantastic stuff has happened in all aspects of the club, but lets be frank, the bread and butter stuff is on the pitch.

In that regard we have failed miserably, with not reaching the playoffs since 2013, which is not good enough by a long stretch.

If the wheels do fall off this season, then it could be the straw that breaks the camel's back for a few fans.

I'm ready for a total change in the direction of Wrexham. We seem to have a back room staff whose contribution is negligible. I would love to see some Welsh players at the club. At the moment Liverpool seems to be the flavour of the month. What is now happening with the youth set up. Do we have one as we hear nothing about it. Basically at 66 years of age I'm finally fed up.

It certainly not based on anything he's done at this club.
Probably his days at TNS which lets be honest isn't exactly difficult when they can just buy the league every season.

I am under the impression that for the past few years, we have not had a reserve team playing in a regular league. This is shocking. How the hell is a club with aspirations, going to get players back from injury. They might be fit but not match fit. There is probably a rock solid reason for this, but I think that it is pretty poor.

Seems like the young upcoming managers are doing the business in this league. The old style tactics are going out of the game

Tim Flowers - Solihull big boot to 7 foot CF's, I beg to differ !!

Keates was a good appointment, so was Ricketts, Lawrence would have followed the same criteria, and Barrow's appointment as assistant made sense.
Appointing Barrow before DL was finalised was the big error.
From that point, making GB up, and letting him choose his assistant broke the mould. We can only hope these few games are just a blip, like every team has, and all will be rosy come April.
I have my doubts.
