Wrexham V Bradford City (The match)
Got on the kop at about 2.50.
The usual sparsely populated crowd, it looked to me around the 4000 mark with 300 - 400 Bradford supporters which I thought was poor.
The arrival of a Wrexham fan with a green mask on caused a bit of a stir as the first rendition of the Hamilton Rap was rolled out to the corrugated tin sheet banging posse at the top of the kop.
A minute's silence was held for the inimitable David Lovett Wrexham Leader sports reporter extraordinare who had furnished us with many memorable quotes and puns over the years.
This was in the main observed in an impeccable manner apart from a few buffheads to the right of me on the kop, I believe the current word may be "reality tv watchers".
Wrexham were 1 - 0 up after about a minute, a classic finish by T and T defender Dennis cult hero Lawrence.
No conga this time though.
Basically the rest of the half was a few pot shots, a few Hector Sam runs, Dibble performing heroics and a few chants from the kop about Alex Hamilton having no friends.
Largely uneventful really. Apart from someone running onto the pitch (from god knows where). Didn't he realise one man pitch invasions were so 1980's? Besides we don't give a stuff about stuff like that now as the only bloke most of us want to fight looks like Frankenstein and wears the kind of slacks my old man would wear whilst doing the garden.
A bloke got sent off for Bradford in the second half, I didn't have a clue who it was at that stage as I was just hoping we could hang on to this slender lead.
The referee (Roger Milford esque) blew the whistle after about 4 minutes off stoppage time to much relief.
Another small irritant to piss Hammy off with, I bet when that goal went in under his breath the Manc property developer muttered "those bastard taffies are doing it again".
Thanks Wrexham, the character in the squad is superb at the moment, people like Pejic and Morgan fitted in well today. Hector is Hector, Llewellyn is Llewellyn (roddy or dai who knows?) while Armstrong is Armstrong but at least he has a past to remember.
It's a long way from Fribo Foods but lets hope Hammy is either flipping burgers or doing bird with Jim Fenner some day soon.
San Quentin will do me!
