No... proper tinpot, sorry but they are hardly Leeds. If the little darlings wish to risk coming in the Cheadle End then it is up to them, if you have done the reverse you try and keep your gob shut. Jump around like a pillock and you risk a slap...each to their own.

I wonder if they fully realise just how nasty Saturday could be? If it's anything like Yeovil/Halifax, there won't be polite applause or even just a few boos. It'll be personal abuse and proper anger. It's not right, but that's how it'll be if we turn in another performance like Yeovil. Throw in a big crowd and Wrexham bouncing around and I really wouldn't be surprised to see people on the pitch and it going off all over the ground and down Castle Street. I hope they're prepared for it. Absolutely this. Without being too hyperbolic about it, the whole day has the chance to be complete carnage. If they think employing six new stewards will solve the problem they're in for a shock. I am just beginning to get a glimmer of the possible plans afoot here whereby there may have been a challenge thrown out to the team management personnel. Perhaps they have been told that Saturday is the day when they can show their merit and resolve. If the team does well (whatever that may be in the minds of the invigilators), then the point mentioned earlier about the nature of the following games could well be offered as a way to salvage their position. However, if things go badly wrong on Saturday and I don't just mean the result of the game, then there may have been some pressure placed on them if this possible outcome occurs and advice given as to what their reactions should be in response. I have kept this as oblique as possible.

Nope, they will not give us a decent allocation if we are doing well come the return leg, why make it look like a home game for them as they run out? Stick em all in the railway end and hope it pours down. Because we’ll be lucky to have 5,000 County fans in there after recent performances and results. Avoids loads of them in our end and it kicking off when they invariably score. And to make some money from them. Just give them the Cheadle End then. They're all neatly contained in one stand and County fans can have the rest of the ground.

He'll be in charge for Saturday. They’ve properly not thought this through, have they? Think about it though. This is a group of people who plotted behind Jim Gannon’s back to sack him, while in public the Director of Football was gushing in national media, saying: ‘He almost has his own football manual that he has written. That shows his depth of thinking about the game. "In many ways Jim represents Stockport. His personality, fighting for the little man, it is who Stockport are.’ Then they had the nerve to leak the idea that ‘we hope by sacking him after a win it shows it isn’t about results’. Are we really surprised they’re prepared to hang Simon Rusk out to dry, knowing full well he’ll get dog’s abuse if we don’t win? Shameful.

More fans to shift though isn’t there. And it’s been done loads of time in the past. I had a season ticket in the pop side, and it never bothered me when I was shifted as it at least made some money for the club.

Should’ve just given them the entire pop side to solve the issue of fans in the cheadle end. Anyone remember when we gave Sheffield Wednesday the entire pop side? Around 2001, I think. That ended with them breaking up the seats and the police turning up via the CE gates. Edit: Not to suggest this will happen on Saturday, of course. More that I was recalling the last time I saw a team given the whole of the Pop Side.

Exactly why Wilson should be the focus of any peaceful protest.

I'm not going on Saturday. It's going to be awful.
There's nothing to suggest any result other than a comfortable Wrexham win. Our players are low on confidence, they don't play as a team and don't appear to have any kind of plan they believe in.
Rusk seems like a nice bloke, but it's not working and the fans will understandably turn on him and the players as soon as things start to go wrong.
For all the money that's been spent, imagine how proud you'd feel if we could play the following 11:
Hinchliffe Duxberry Minihan Palmer Stott Turnbull Walker Warburton Mulhern Stephenson Thomas
I can't believe how quickly we've gone from that side to this. And how much it's cost us.
The only possible silver lining of this inevitable humiliation could be an overhaul of the management team, and have someone brought in that has the stones to tell the players on high wage, 3 year contracts that they either start performing or they get loaned out to part time teams in the North.

Definitely happened back in 2002 as well. Wednesday did seem to get into their fair share of bother back then.
