Default 02/03 season

https://youtu.be/gQpg6vpaVh4

Some footage from 02/03 season I’ve noticed.

Football taught by Denis Smith.

Some of the stuff Trundle was doing on the pitch was mind-boggling when you watch it back, could fashion a chance from nothing. Barely believable that we once had players of this quality, not to mention Ferguson and Carlos Edwards.

One for sparky. Essential viewing.

Great squad of players there. Our last decent footballing side.

Although this squad was a good one, we'd have done nothing without Morrell and Trundle's goals. I hope we go all out for the best possible forwards next year.

I often think back to this season, as it was the last promotion side we had. Not the last decent team, as the 98 point side was decent in all fairness. But in terms of skill, the 02-03 side had some real talent.. and Denis Smith, who had no previous connection with the club, and did not know the area, was a brilliant manager.

Happy days!

I watched this last Friday. The football was on a different planet and the stadium looked tidy too.

Best Wrexham team in my entire time following the club.

If you go to 41mins 30seconds on the part 2 video, there is a 1-0 loss away to Exeter. I remember after the game on here (or was it webbed robin then) the collective gloom that it was probably over for the season as we where too far behind and form was faltering.

We then went 14 games unbeaten to the end of the season to get automatic promotion playing truly wonderful football.

I was 6 years old. I can only really remember us playing in the conference now. The talent on display here is alien to me. Incomparable to what we watch on the pitch now.

I was about 13 when I watched this team. Think I took it for granted at the time just how good they were.

I went to that game. Drove down straight after work - was working in Gloucestershire so not too bad a journey. Yes can remember leaving the ground and other Wxm fans thinking we weren't going to do it that season.... and then the unbeaten run followed.

Good times.

More skill, attacking play and goals in the 1st half against Rochdale than in most of a season in recent years
