Got a bit carried away, there; sorry about that, but I`d rather given up hope of seeing us win again after that run and I`m usually the Jonah who puts the mokkers on things by daring to turn up and putting an end to a successful run.
Seriously, I was disappointed at how few there were in the away end on Saturday; the contrast with Salford was mind-blowing. Is that down to disillusionment with the way the team has been playing or symptomatic of the decline in interest in the FA Cup in recent years? If it`s the former, no problem; the support will soon come back when results improve, but if the latter that saddens me. I love the FA Cup, but so many big clubs now treat it as an irrelevance at best and an inconvenience at worst that I suppose a decline in interest is inevitable. Sad.
I agree, Dancing, Wrexham will be far from easy. Before Saturday I wouldn`t have given us a cat in hell`s chance of getting anything from the game but now we just might. I`ve said before that I think there`s a half-decent team in there somewhere and if we can get some confidence in there we may actually start to see it.
