Wrexham 1-1 LCFC, post-match thread

[Mickyblueeyes]

I spent most of my time scrolling on my phone. When we did score I called Vestegaard a dickhead and then looked back down to my phone. It’s a shit time supporting our club. However, if this is any reference to the last time we were really shit, good things come to those who wait. In ten years we will win the champions league!

[Stuntman_Mike]

Felt nothing when we scored. 

 

This club has broken me

I remember when Spurs got a late equaliser at KP a few years ago, and then went on to win it late on.

The scenes for the equaliser were amazing.

 

When Vesty scored the lack of  celebration and joy typifies the  arrogance of getting a last minute equaliser against a team who he thinks he shouldn't be playing against.

 

Says alot about the team....

I don’t think it was arrogance—it looked like embarrassment. They knew they’d been absolutely honking in the second half and were too embarrassed to celebrate.

 

It was very noticeable that in the five minutes of injury time after the equaliser they showed more fight than in the entire 90mins of normal time. Having shown precisely zero effort at 1-0 down, they suddenly seemed to think, “We may as well run around a bit now.” It was as if they thought that chasing an equaliser was beneath them, but they could just about see their way to chasing a winner.

You'll always have people with different views at football and that's fine. I don't agree with much of it, but it's football and so long as it causes no harm them so be it.

 

In all my time following Leicester and England, today was the first time I have ever felt the need to  call out (and report) a fellow supporter for racist language. 
 

I can't say how much it upsets me to have done that. 

Good on you for reporting. 

 

Do you know if anything is being done about the report? Was the fan removed?

Strange, I felt pissed off, really pissed off

 

Never have I been so pissed off to see Leicester score. What happen to the elation that used to come from last minute equalisers

[Ricey]

We were pathetic and the equaliser only allows the crack paperers to get to work again. 

 

We are 14th but I think we are the luckiest team in the league by a country mile. The majority of our points are totally undeserved.

 

Can we just fast forward to the bit where we end up doing no business in January despite the manager constantly claiming that the club are “working hard” and then sack the manager once a points deduction causes our league position to look a bit shaky. It’s all so obvious.

[SB87_LCFC]

The writing is on the wall unfortunately, summed up by the lack of celebration when we scored - All hope is lost on this manager!

 

We have a group who have no leadership, senior players clearly have given up caring because their points are clearly not being listened to by Vern Troyer's Spanish twin. To me, these lot are turning up just to be paid their wages and have a kick about. 

 

Why on earth we had Ben Nelson at LB last night when they played with a square of 4 CM's behind Moore last night and we had Hamza at RB - Why did we not just match them up? basic tactics - we go to a 3 at the back and pin Wrexham's midfield back pushing JJ in with BDR to match up with James and Sheaf. 

 

Ayew is horrific, fell over at what would have been a definite goalscoring opportunity and could barely keep up with play throughout the game - feels like he has to take set pieces to feel important. At this stage I'd be starting Monga on the left and play Mavididi through the middle, be direct, play on the counter and use pace with a front 3 of Monga - Mavididi - Fatawu

I went to the dentist yesterday morning for a filling . The injection wasn’t pleasant and I was delighted when it was all over . Bet you are better off from knowing that. 
 

Last night I watched the game , it wasn’t pleasant and I was delighted when it was all over.

 

Watching shouldn’t be a chore it should be enjoyable but did anyone feel anything other than miserable after watching that pile of sh1*?

 

A draw wasn’t well earned it was more to do with Wrexham not being able to finish LCFC off. Exactly the same as the WBA game. 
 

Moore terrorised the two CD in the air. Their players just looked like players fit for the championship they were stronger, more aggressive and were far more motivated.

Ok there was a point gained but everything we see , everything we believe leads us to know that this team isn’t going to get promoted and if they manage to even get into the play offs it would be akin to a miracle

Same.

 

It’s not that I want us to lose before the game, but when the performances and attitudes are so bad then I want them to all feel the consequences. Jammy draws and wins keeps everything the same, which will eventually see us relegated.

We have a core of inbred racist thick fans.

Imagine the sh1t i had when i started going in the 90's it was vile.

 

Good on ya for reporting it

 

[ceebeefox]

How many times did Fatawu knock a first time ball aimlessly into midfield for the opposition to pick up easily? Get him on the left where his pace would take him by most in this league and he can cross from his natural side. Mavadidi on the other hand is in a better vein of form and looked more comfortable last night, but neither got a ball in all night hardly. Mind you, with no striker what would happen? But that’s not their fault, get it in the box with quality, you’ve done your job.Marti out!

[CrazyKopCorner]

I'd been up since 4am and fell asleep mid way through the 2nd half. 

 

I was amazed when I woke up and saw we'd got a draw 

 

This team is as bad as I can remember

Well fair play for reporting it. There’s just no need. Hope they get dealt with in the right way.

I don’t think it’s arrogance. It’s apathy. Vesty has his flaws however, when he’s on the pitch I don’t think he takes things lightly….. he does perform. I think he was pissed off, he looked pissed off. Allegedly he apologised to the fans as he went down the tunnel

Didn't think anything could be as depressing as the football last night but this tops it. These people have always been there, it's just now they feel emboldened to spew their hatred. Takes some balls to call it out though so well done for doing it

[Bert]

I mean even the commentary from the official club stream is shocking. “Controlled with his left foot finished with his right”. It was the exact opposite.  
 

Shambles.

Totally agree with this! Accountability goes a long way - something the manager doesn't do!

Maybe make him Captain rather than the Bangladeshi Messi then- God knows we need a Walshy type leader at the moment.

[Sol thewall Bamba]

Same as the West Brom last minute goal, I feel absolutely nothing. 

 

Be careful what you wish for though.

[Rubbersoul]

If I had to think of some positives I thought Nelson did ok at LB & Page looked like he knew how to pass & receive a football something Bobby Reid struggles with. 

[alanf0x]

On the grand scheme of things, only minor. But it was interesting to see at HT our subs come out, do a width of the pitch and then run inside because of the rain. 
 

Up the other end Wrexham substitutes, looking focussed, motivated and keeping warm for the 15 minutes

I don't think that's minor at all. I think it says a lot about our current set up.

[funkyrobot]

Appleton on BBC’s When Your Smiling said right footed Nelson struggled and Thomas needs to come back in to the team and that maybe he was dropped too quickly. Earlier on he admitted to not seeing much of LCFC this season. Clearly he doesn’t realise that Nelson’s performance, whilst not perfect, was much better than watching Luke Thomas be picked apart by every attacker on the left hand side every game. 

[Haywood_6]

It’s painful to watch - we're getting worse and worse under this manager. 22 games without a clean sheet is an embarrassment. Injuries to JJ and Skipp now as well, two of the only half decent players we still actually still have left. 

[Foxdiamond]

I can't be angry because we equalised. I think we are stuck with this manager for the rest of the season no matter what. Losing another point will only damage us further so take it and wait for the next game.
