January 31, 20251 yr I heard it was a full on Welsh assembly decision. On St David’s day they didn’t want Welsh folk having to keep switching to Welsh every time English folk walked into the pub. The early KO decision to get the English in/out early makes a lot of sense and will help the Welsh enjoy the day and reduce the humiliation English folk will feel in the Welsh pubs.

Trains in to Wrexham General arrive either half 10 (which feels daft early) or 11:42 which feels a bit dicey if there’s any issues on the trains
January 31, 20251 yr A 12.30pm ko gives little time for pre match drinks. I can give some advice for those in need. Post match, again, a good few options. Just ask. Town centre is a dead & alive hole, plus weird Welsh looking for a scrap. Just north of town there's a few good options.

February 1, 20251 yr FFS! I've said it before, I'll say it again! Fook off Sky, you fookin' fookers! Silver lining, wee bar crawl round Chester on the way back.
February 4, 20251 yr Interesting that they are waiting till tonight's outcome before they make a decision on ticket sales for the league game. Buy your vertu ticket to be first in queue for the league game? 🤣 #count me in
February 4, 20251 yr Super fan points incoming for vertu trophy game. I went to watch the reserves there once. Does it count for my 92 or do I need to go again ?

February 4, 20251 yr Or if you get one you're last in the queue for the other? Wrexham's so amazing its not fair if you go twice.

Wetherspoons will be open which is about a 5 minute ish walk from the ground, always rammed on a match day mind but there's been many games this season with away fans in there. Over the road from the ground by the Petrol station is the Maes Gwyn which will be open early too. The Plas Coch pub on the retail park which you'll pass on the way in will be open from 11. I'd imagine they'll be a few other places in town open too. Loads of parking in town within 10 minute ish walk to the ground. 12:30 Ko's are crap. We've got another soon away at Northampton. P.s. All pubs are English speaking! 😆 Edited February 4, 20251 yr by Only In Welsh
February 4, 20251 yr Plas Coch is too far away, think we'll just drink in The Turf, that's nice and close to the away end.
