Player ratings

Nobody could get near Davis Keillor-Dunn

Successful dribbles: 33. Every time he got the ball somebody had to make a decision, and every time the decision was wrong.

Squad

Ben Sheaf in a row with a teammate

It was not about football and everybody who saw it knows that. Two men who have to play together on Saturday said things at Wrexham this week that will take longer than a week to unsay.

Boardroom

Wrexham counting the cost

The accounts make uncomfortable reading. Wages first and ambition second is the order of business at Wrexham now.

Squad

Callum Doyle falls out with a teammate over standards

The oldest argument in any dressing room and the only one that is genuinely about football: one man thinks another is not putting enough in. It is also the row a manager privately does not mind having happened.

The terraces

The crowd has taken to Callum Doyle

At 22 he is being sung about by people twice his age, which is an affection a signing has to earn over years and a local kid gets for turning up. It is also the hardest thing in football to live up to.

Market

Reading join the queue for Dan Scarr

Add another name to the list: Reading have asked the question everybody in the game has been asking about Dan Scarr. The answer from Wrexham has not changed — yet.

Squad

The manager makes an example of Bailey Cadamarteri

“If you cannot run for the shirt, somebody else will wear it.” No name was used and none was needed; every player in that room knew who it was for.

Player ratings

Callum Doyle takes the honours

Marked 7.31 on an afternoon he ran from the first whistle to the last. Whatever else went wrong, Wrexham had the best player on the pitch.

Squad

“I want to play”: Bailey Cadamarteri speaks

“I respect the manager and I am not going to sit here and pretend I am happy.” It is the most common sentence in football and it has never once been the end of a story.

Market

Wrexham turn down Stockport County for Danny Ward

The offer was not close and it was refused without much discussion. Whether the second one is refused as quickly is another matter.

Squad

Ben Sheaf signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Ben Sheaf commits to Wrexham for another 4 years.

Squad

Tempers go at Wrexham

Nathan Broadhead was at the centre of it, and by the time it was pulled apart there were three or four others involved. Training grounds are small places and long seasons make them smaller.

Market

St. Gallen watching Bailey Cadamarteri

The interest is real enough to have reached print. Wrexham have said nothing, which in a transfer window is its own kind of answer.

Squad

No hiding place for Liberato Cacace

“I pick players who do the work. All of it.” No name was spoken; every camera still turned to Liberato Cacace, and the manager let it.

Market

Wrexham sign Jack Spencer, one for the future

Jack Spencer is 16, and Wrexham have signed him for the player he will be rather than the one he is. The first team can wait; the point of a deal like this is the years it buys.

Squad

Arthur Okonkwo signs a new deal

“I never wanted to be anywhere else. There is unfinished business here.” Arthur Okonkwo commits to Wrexham for another 4 years.

Market

The clock runs on Arthur Okonkwo's contract

49 months left and silence from upstairs — no offer, no talks, nothing for his people to answer. Clubs that let a calendar do their negotiating usually end up negotiating with the calendar.

Squad

Too much change too quickly at Wrexham

7 signings in three months. Every one of them may be an upgrade and the team can still be worse for a while, which is the part of a rebuild that never appears in the transfer-window verdicts.

Market

Modou Faal is free to find somewhere else

“I was told straight, and I would rather have it straight.” The manager at Wrexham has been clear about where Modou Faal stands, which is more than many ever get.
