Wrexham v Grimsby Preview

The Opposition

Bottom of the league and continual financial woes it never seems to be a good time to follow the Welsh outfit. Until late the team looked almost certain for the drop with Mansfield, Lincoln and Macclesfield all starting to pick up points at a fairly rapid pace. Wrexham were close to being left behind by their relegation counterparts. Since our 1-0 win against them at home, Wrexham have gone on an incredible unbeaten run, beating both the bookies' favourites for the league MK Dons and Darlington, as well as a win over fellow promotion hopefuls Peterborough and draws over Morecambe and Bradford. Such a run is nothing short of miraculous with the win taking them only 4 points away from 23rd place Mansfield. Whatever happens between now and May it can't be argued that Brian Little’s side didn't go down without a fight and with fixtures to play against all their relegation rivals there is a small chink of optimism on the Welsh fans faces, until they lose the Six Nations of course.
