Trusty defending then was a joke looked all at sea

 

[Esteban Cambiasso]

To be fair he's let a few decent shots off, maybe could have tried to place the last one, but he's had a few decent chances so far

Just not a natural goalscorer

 

[Shawy24]

Trusty too slow. Simply not at the races. Coulibally. Waste of space.

And taken none

 

[SB_90]

another game, another grbic clanger. the only goalie i know who stays on his line. instead coming to catch it

That was Trusty fault not Grbic.

 

[Flumps]

Do you honestly really care? They are and will be arrogant. They’re arrogant Welsh cunts with no redeeming features. But come on they’re a minor irritant for us. Let em have a season or two with us in the same division where things matter and we might actually care. I really couldn’t care less about them. They’ve bought their position and they know it.

I just can not stand the absolute fan girl excitement the media have for that club because some Hollywood comedian has piled come cash in to them. Always trying to claim they're the underdogs when in the leagues they've become the somewhat well off club. Every goal they scored is amazing, every blade of grass should feel privileged they stood there. Cringey and annoying.

 

[Alex Cheeseright]

Trusty redemption

 

[Belvedere Blade]

Trusty equalizer for BLADES. COME ON YOU BLADES. Free header and clearly over line. What are those Wrexham player complaining about

 

[Sheffsteel]

1-1 now, we deserve it.

Great corner from the impressive Pack.
Nice powerful header from Trusty, couldn't miss really, just needed to make sure he kept it down.

 

[PeterNdlovu081]

Equaliser.

It wasn't cleared though was it?

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

I don't know why Grbic is starting. Pointless. Why not give Davies another game when he's losing his place shortly

Coulibaly looks like he's still getting his bearings on a football pitch. No idea why he's still at the club

 

[Shawy24]

You couldn't care less about them but you're ranting and calling them arrogant Welsh cunts.

Seems like you care a lot.

Ranting! Just telling the truth. I have zero feelings for them. And they’re still arrogant Welsh cunts.

 

[Dan Emery]

Thought we were at home?

Shop window....Just hope nobody is watching cause in this performance, they ain't buying.

 

[Shawy24]

That last chance for Wrexham. Gilchrist is leaving it for Grbic expecting him to take everything out and he’s stuck there like a startled rabbit.

 

[3Cheers4Ramirez]

Shop window....Just hope nobody is watching cause in this performance, they ain't buying.

Our best hope of selling him is to hide him. Just point to his height and international caps

 

[Sheffsteel]

Ohhhh Wrexham should have scored there.
A mix up between Gilchriest and Grbic, both leaving it to each other and the Wrexham striker nipped in and hooked it just past the post.

5 minutes earlier I had to laugh.
Their striker was aiming a shot into the left corner however it was heavily blocked taking all the pace off the ball and deflected centrally towards Grbic.
However Grbics reactions are so slow, he was still partially diving to his left. For a second I thought he was going to dive out of the way of the ball.

Our best player has been Peck....plays a bit like O'Hare....very comfortable on the ball and passes for fun.....think he'll have a good future in the game.
Seriki was also really good down the right side with some strong positive running before he went off injured.
Hate to say it but slightly disappointed with Brewster...he's working hard enough....but it's as though he's not a centre forward.
Maybe he just needs a goal to build his confidence

 

[Antarctic Monkey]

Grbic and Coulibaly, last game for us?!?!

 

[Blademan89]

Grbic and Coulibaly, last game for us?!?!

Hope so, although coulibaly isn't really playing to put himself in shop window, terrible game for him so far.

 

[Gin&Juice]

Grbic and Coulibaly, last game for us?!?!

Yep. Just not confident enough, need to go and start a fresh.

 

[Cruyff Turn]

Souttar..the phrase is BIG UNIT!!!

 

[jt64]

Shame Seriki went off, was easily our best player. That said, I've got zero time for the antics following the first knock where it looked like he collided with the advertising hoarding. If you are injured, you stay off the pitch. Rolling back onto the pitch to try to delay the game is cheating, pure and simple

 

[Jan Age]

So poor they look frightened to death…

He’s not made a forward pass all half !

Hope so, although coulibaly isn't really playing to put himself in shop window, terrible game for him so far.

 

[DeanLearner'sCat]

Grbic made a genuinely brilliant save early on, but he's still making everyone around him nervous. Coulibaly putting on an absolute disasterclass as well. I'd be surprised if he comes out 2nd half.

 

[Berkshire Blade]

Souttar..the phrase is BIG UNIT!!!

His head is huge!!

Coulibaly and little Benie really have destroyed any credibility the Swedish league might have. Absolutely hilariously shit performance from him tonight. Get him off. People are watching and we rant rid

 

[SUFCinks]

I don’t think we’ve been very good so far. Improvement needed.
