Can someone put iFollow out of its misery? Not only does the link from the club website make me "BUY VIDEO PASS" to watch this match, but even if I decide to pay twice, when you click on the button, there's no match to purchase. (Aside from the fact that I believe Mark posted this was free.) #askwxm

MAX APPRECIATION! Easy to forget that defender Max Cleworth has been with Wrexham since age 12. Played in National League and League Two and League One — and now STARTING in the Championship. Impressive and already a club legend.
⚽️ Just something to kick-off match day. Now to Blackburn. #askwxm

Just followed Mark’s coverage via Patreon posts of Wrexham Women U19 v. Connah's Quay at The Rock. At the final whistle, 10-1 to Wrexham in an avalanche. 👏👏👏👏👏 #askwxm

Subscribed to The Leader for Mark's column and community news—and love Alex Whilding's pie commentary at all of the away grounds.
Her new favorite: chicken and bacon at Ipswich Town. (Not so good at Stoke.) Here’s her scoreboard so far.
🥧 Agree with the reviews?

“Now he’s David F*cking Attenborough!” 🤣
We love Mark’s posts on locations, culture and pies, and that was my wife’s immediate reaction to this morning’s Patreon video, “NFA Nature Reserve!”
Though perhaps Sir David knows more about birds & amphibian proportion? #askwxm

We’re still almost two weeks from the next Adran Premier fixtures, but it’s going to be a huge Sunday with the top four facing off. Top-of-the-table (on goal differential) Cardiff City hosts #4 TNS. And Wrexham, even on points with Cardiff, hosts #3 Swansea City. Can. Not. Wait. 🏴 #askwxm

This nightmare could all be over by close of business today. Impeach and convict. Or 25th Amendment. We do not have to live this way.

Hey, MAGA voters. EVERYTHING we said about Trump WAS TRUE. Now you have the proof. Are you now going to descend even further into the cult — or join the rest of us in being real patriots to save our nation?

In honor of today's #MiaRobertsDerby, here's the day we endured the deluge to see Mia in action and ... ALMOST ... met her! (Best we could manage was a distant shout.)
But it was a highlight to see her in action this summer at the TST in Cary, North Carolina. #askwxm

Trump is mentally ill. But Republicans are morally depraved; they could stop all of this today.
But they just sit at home and watch. While children starve. Planes crash. Farmers go bankrupt. Millionaires steal our money. Hate becomes law. Democracy and freedom built over 250 years is blown up.

Adrian Premier finally updated the entire table (they’re often late and sketchy in their information posts and updates).
So here we are doing into the next matchday in two weeks. Let’s go, Reds! 🏴 #askwxm

All caveats withstanding, this is almost unimaginable when you realize that just two years and six months ago, we were still playing in the National League. The haters and Parky-outers can just go to …. #askwxm
