If we get 18 points from 6 I'll eat a big slice of very humble pie ...........
Man of the Match and in the Non-League Paper team of the week was Joe Rowley for King's Lynn alongside Saidou Khan and John Rooney.
Man of the Match and in the Football League Paper team of the week for Division One was Tendayi Darikwa for Wigan.
Wrexham only have until Tuesday for more big signings as they are Welsh FA. Parkinson says he wants at least two more quality players. Certainly Tozer was a good idea, they needed a defender and they got one with a very long throw. But he's 31 and they've paid big money, but I suppose if you are in films for which you are paid millions, "big" has a different meaning. Hey ho!
Watched some of Stockport and Southend. Loved Stockport's glaring pink shirts. Southend were pretty good and will go well, but it was quickly obvious that even though they've got Paddy Madden, the man you have to stop is still John Rooney. If you want to beat County hassle him every time he gets the ball.
Player to sign, CALLUM MINKLEY from Gainsborough Town. Came through Derby's Academy. Defender, got Man of the Match for Town when they got their first points this week. He was so impressive he was given a a place in the National League North Team of the Week in the Non-League Paper, which is pretty impressive as Gainsborough aren't even in the National League - they are near the bottom of the Northern Premier League Premier Division. I'd sign him on the strength of that alone!
