I've been watching the progress on their forum (sad, I know). They shut down a three day thread about the odds on Ricketts leaving running to 40+ pages after a BBC Shropshire suggestion that he was leaving. Another one started up with a variety of thoughts about Ricketts' conduct over this and since 6pm yesterday is already on 45 pages.
I wonder who will be in their technical area tonight.

If they keep Salford out I'll be OK with that. I wonder if Ricketts is speculating on Wrexham not being able to squeeze Salford and Orient out of promotion and taking an offer now that may not come along later, if his team slide.

Why any football fan would prefer the media to show more interest in a club essentially a play thing of wealthy former footballers, rather than to a fans club, created by supporters fed up with the circus of Premier League football is a mystery to me. Each to their own of course, but give me FC United over Salford any day of the week.

Which, of course, isn't what I said. I'd rather the media didn't fawn over either.

A couple of years ago FC United were bleating about an FA Cup tie being moved away from Saturday afternoon for TV. Which is a valid point of view - but not if you're sucking on the teat of TV money by entering in the first place when you could opt not to out of ideological purity.
