Wrexham appoint Phil Parkinson

I had to double check to make sure he did manage Bradford City, which is who I believe he's had the most success - I knew he left them but I haven't kept track on him since. It seems his stocks fallen since going to Bolton (which had diaster all over it).

Sunderland I'm surprised he got, but Wrexham - he must really be seeing cash signs with their investment.

Good manager, I hope we are prepared to fight for promotion.

good appointment for them, experienced enough and i would imagine he will make wrexham difficult to beat. its going to be a tough season again.

Wrexham will be a tough cookie to crack this season, Phil will have them organised well.

They are being sponsored by Tik Tok so Phil will have plenty of dosh to spend. I suspect they'll pick up the cream of the crop in the NL. They'll be overwhelming favourites if they do. No guarantee of success though. Hopefully.

He has the experience but it depends what happens on the field, just because they have investment it doesn't mean they'll run away with the league. I think if anything, it will turn Wrexham into how teams saw us in our first season. Wanting to win them more just because of the hype!

Think he got Colchester into the Championship, but that's obviously way back. Used to be a bit of a big boot merchant. Big names don't equal success.Β

Interesting appointment for them, not one I expected. Lots of similarities between Wrexham in the this league and Sunderland in L1 – big budgets high expectationsΒ and he struggled at Sunderland…

I wonder if theirΒ board are believers of the old "youΒ can’t play football if you want toΒ get out the NL" mantra… Since we’ve been in the league the 4 teams that have been promoted (Barrow, Harrogate, Sutton and Hartlepool) all played good attacking football. None of them were defensive and direct, it’s alright being organised and hard to beat but with only 1 auto spot you really need to rack up the wins.

Sunderland have a lot of issue off the field, where Wrexham are starting a new dawn and are only just beginning their adventure sinceΒ Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney bought them. I can only see them becoming a tougher team to play against.

Posted

Since we play them quite early on, we might not have to worry about what will happen if he pulls them together. It will take time to build them into a force to be reckoned with.

It will take time for Wrexham to hit the ground, I think. I don't think Notts should fear anyone in this league, tougher games I am content to see a draw if a win can't be sealed.
