A win at last! Wrexham’s victory against Bristol Rovers last weekend felt like a cup win! There was a huge and collective sense of relief after Tom Craddock finished Rovers off with a superb solo effort. Hopefully we can build on this victory and still achieve something this season.

Tonight is the night when Wrexham fans reflect on the achievements of their heroes inaugurated into the Hall of Fame. Wrexham Supporters’ Association launched the Hall of Fame in September 2003 to mark the achievements of former players, officials and fans who have contributed so much to this great club.

There are some great names in the Hall of Fame: Tommy Bamford, Alan Fox, Mel Sutton, Gary Bennett and Denis Smith to name a few. They are players, managers, staff and fans who have been and still are legends in the eyes of Wrexham fans; people who have often dedicated their lives to Wrexham Football Club. Tonight we will make a special award to Wrexham Supporters’ Trust for their role in saving Wrexham FC.

After our eighth defeat in nine matches, we could certainly do with a few clean sheets! Hopefully Craig Morgan will provide some experience and stability at the back and, who knows, could return permanently when the transfer window opens in January.

Another Wrexham defender who could always be relied upon was Mike Williams. Mike joined Wrexham Football Club in 1985 and played 232 times for the Robins (as we were nicknamed back then) until a knee injury ended his career. Mike was the first player to be awarded Wrexham Supporters’ Association Player of the Season award in successive seasons (1985/6 and 1986/87). Fittingly he was awarded a testimonial match against his former club, Chester City, which Wrexham won!

In recognition of his contribution to Wrexham Football Club, Mike Williams will be inducted into the Hall of Fame on November 3rd, 2006 at the Centenary Club. Mike now runs the Hope and Anchor pub in Buckley and will be joined on the night by a large contingent from Buckley Reds. Thanks for coming down to support this event lads! For tickets please call into the Club Shop or call Dave Davies on 01978 752276.
