Crusaders away !

i am looking forward to the trip down North Wales a ground that i havent visited before and a team that seem to be on the up.Noble is a very good coach and looks like he is bringing a rich vein of form into at the best an average crusaders side.So how many folk are making the treck down?

Im still boycotting Wales.

Can't make this game as Kirky is playing & his game doesn't kick off until 12.30 so there's no way we would get there.

I'm going so anyone who wants score updates can PM with their number and i'll keep you updated.

Looking forward to first ever visit to Wrexham.Wonder how many stands will be open today.

Been having a butchers hook ont google.The delightfully named 'Plas Coch' may be a good bet for a watering hole pre game.Big pub with a beer garden.

Map of said coming off A438 J5 : HTH

No brett in team, hope that is not a bad omen for the rest of the season.

Put Leroy as no1 full back, Brett as his personnel coach and back up, sorted

If you need to buy tickets to gain entry just wish they'd let you know via website before hand,missed the first try due to this.

Went 12 - 0 up early and then there was no doubt the intensity level dropped from our lads.Crusaders kept plugging away.We blew the scoreboard out later on.

Good to see Drewy out there again,showing the old touches of class.Looks like he's gonna be plagued by that injured knee though.

Decent turn out from our fans.

Wrexham is not much further than a trip to Hull.Tidy little stadium,just the right size and very close to town centre.Healthy home contingent,if those fans can stay patient as their squad is built they could be on to something good there.

worked in wrexham just beore we came out here and passed that ground on numnerous occasions.. its only a short drive and not too far from the town centre

I agree about the ticketing situation! It was a farce. Thankfully I got a call and told who I could in the pub before setting off to the ground.

It was a nice day out the locals really made us feel welcome! I've been to Wrexham before and they were very hostile towards us then but this is football we're talking about!! Strangely that stand we were put in was no different towhen I was last there 15 years ago despite then putting seats in the lower paddock which weren't there.

The train journey wasn't too bad. Just wish I'd researched my prices more as I realised that buying a return to Manchester then buying a return from Manchester to WSreham would've been cheaper! Well I know for next time!!

Both items worth putting on the 'AWAY GAME TRAVEL' thread?

Aye had I known sooner!

Enjoyed the day out. The Wrexham fans were very friendly and were enjoying their Rugby League. I was talking to a few ex Wrexham FC fans who had seen Super League on TV and decided to give it a try live. They were amazed how fast the game was live as opposed to TV. And they are now hooked.
They pointed out how it was so good to be able to talk to opposing fans without any bother or agro.

Spoke with a Celtic Crusaders fan who was, let's say, mildly bitter with how they have been shafted. It was his first game of the season.

How easy is the ground to get away from!
