How many Wrexham fans are there? If only BBC Wales would tell us !!!

For most of the game sounded like there’s about 700, not 7,000 

[superniko]

Does anyone know how much money we’ve generated from the cup runs over the last two seasons from both prize money and TV money?

QF and 4th Round last year and 5th Round (still to go) and 4th Round this year (it’ll be 4 premier league teams played with Newcastle)

That money alone should be given to JDT for Januarys budget given the guff Mowbray served us in the cup for years.

You got the Sammie off ASAP bit wrong though, so I'm glad you didn't bother with the bonus ball.

I'd leave it till summer if I was him...Palace could go down. Probs won't but could do

It’s still the chance of Premier League football, in what is a short career, and I think our financial situ will result in us shepherding him off to Croydon, (or elsewhere).

Read somewhere last years cup runs were worth £3m

They still felt the need to chant 'your support is fucking shit' at one point though.

He desperately needs a goal but I quite like what I see from Semir there’s some potential there

He needs that first goal to calm his nerves, he's got a bit of jitteriness about him at the moment.

Interesting comments about Szmodics talking about a very long coaching session the team had where JDT focused on why they were conceding.

Nothing a quick edit won't fix

Class above. They've not got near us all night. 

How did they manage to go 1 nil up then?

[deanives]

Has anyone mentioned about what sigurdsson actually brings to the team? He doesn't seem to bring anything that we actually need, like he did when he first came into the team

Rovers have been lackadaisical this half, with better passing and control we'd have 6 or 7 on the board

[B16Rover]

Would've liked to have seen Gilensen tonight

So we’ve put a few extra million in the pot for Rovers that we wouldn’t have seen for years prior - should just be bonus money straight into transfer/wage kitty.

No idea what he has to do to get a game. Much rather see what he can do than let Moran iron out his kinks to our detriment

[CambridgeRover]

Another great cup run under JDT>

He's begging for a goal. A worrying thing watching him is that he never seems to be in the right place at the right time. Desperate for some confidence. 

I don't watch him and think he's absolute gash though, which I got watching Hirst last year..and Leonard/Ennis this year.

Wharton MoM? Trying to fool everyone into driving up Adam's price

[Tom]

Not keen on the ref throwing the rules out of the window and just playing a single minute stoppage time out of pity 

[AllRoverAsia]

Good win, could have been more.

Attn 18,169 from BBC

Fair play to them though, they’ve all stayed for the credits.

Dunno, something to do with being our second top scorer and having nearly double the goals of the two in third. Probably doesn't bring anything though yeh.... goals don't matter, right?
