Notts County fan here. But also want Wrexham to go up, and a Ben Foster fan... so this is mega conflicting season for me lol. Foster is a great goalie, been following for a long time. 1st one looked a tad soft (looks like he saw it late/late reaction? and he'll know it) but the 2nd and 3rd goals the defense is a tad shocking, even as the manager said in post game interview. You could put Allison, de Gea and Neuer all back there, but they're not stopping rips from 8 - 10 yards out. Surprising to see. Wrex still has as game in hand. And Hali is ALWAYS tough to beat... when Notts play them I always wince and flinch during the because they're a quality side, particularly going forward. If anything, its a good kick in the butt to not try to coast through the rest of the season.
Foster had a clear view of the first goal.I was at the game and immediately thought he should of done better.Watching replays of it proves to me I was correct. I’m at the game tomorrow and I’m sure we will bounce back
@@daveg114 Yeah, I'm a big fan of him, and if you watch his old YT stuff, he's one of his own biggest critics. He'll know he should have had that one. The other 2 though, Halifax is literally shooting, with a yard or two of space, from right in front of him.
Pretty shocking defending at all 3 goals. Watched the first half live and it seemed the pitch also caught Wrexham a bit off guard. Foster did well, but I think could have challenged better with the first 2 goals.
The pitch was better than our own.There was absolutely no excuses,Halifax were the better team. Yes,foster made a couple of important saves,but he has to be saving shots like those first 2 goals.They were not screamers,he has probably had more powerful back passes to deal with. Hopefully the team can dust themselves off and come out and perform as we know they can from the start tomorrow.
To be fair to Foster for the first goal they player should’ve never been allowed that much space inside the box and it was a lovely finish. As for the second he had two players blocking his view
Midfield went back to there old ways, not pressing enough and not closing down and dropping too deep. Defensively also very poor. Tomorrow now is a massive game, whoever wins, should really be winning the league then.
Seen some criticism of Foster for the first two goals but the defending is awful. For the second hes allowed to run about 30 yards untouched before shooting.
We didn’t press and play way to far off the ball on Defense. We should had subs in way sooner in the second half, Ben blew it badly but no support hurts too. We didn’t seem to play well on offense and never attacked as well as we did in prior games. Set pieces were lackluster.
I'm a die hard Wrexham fan but, sadly, I think we are heading for defeat at this rate. We won't win a playoff competition. The only way for us to gain promotion is automatically. Again, as usual, we are throwing it away at the end as we have for the past 20 years. It's so frustrating. We've now made it very difficult for ourselves. A loss against Notts County puts us in serious danger. I think whoever wins the game tomorrow is going up.
Just have to say, No 4 should clear Halifax's 1st goal, it is like 1 foot away from his foot going past him, making Foster look like he is not up for it. 2nd goal should have been there, they are way to passive in the defense, stop backing away and try a tackled, Foster did not look good, that is a rifle shot. 3rd goal, is the defense even awake ? All seem like they have given up. Congrats to Halifax, they seemed to outlive 1st half, took a chance on 2nd half and ran with it.
Foster looking his age in that game, he should be really disappointed with the first 2 goals. The second in particular as the first 1 just looked like he was too old to reach if but your never to old to guard your front post.
Nonsense. 2nd goal was blasted from 8 yrds and dipping. Many top keepers would've been beaten. Could've done better on the 1st but it's clear he was expecting his defender to stick his leg out.
@@kqh123 it doesnt matter it was hit with power thats a weak excuse he was out of position and slow to react... 10 years ago he makes both of those saves.. the first he makes 5 years ago.. im a massive fan of Foster im not slagging him im just saying he looked his age and could have done better... Anyway he more than made up for it with a worldie Pen save vs Notts
@@kqh123 i see what ur saying but maybe a bit of both... a 40 year old man out of the game coming back after 9 months is always going to be a stretch.. i hope he stays unretired tbh
I also thought Foster looked slow, and didn't position himself well enough on the first 2 goals. He's a great pro but the reflexes aren't what they were. Do you think Howard is a better option, or is even an aging Foster the better choice for this stretch run?
Notts County are the best team in the National League by far. Halifax exposed what a shambles Wrexham are. Wrexham will be spending their 17th season in the National League
Not amazing really there are some great clubs with history in these terrible leagues. What you have to remember is there’s a few clubs here such as Halifax, Notts county and Wrexham who don’t really deserve to be in this league and are all in there for bad reasons off the pitch. The buzz around Wrexham has been a good thing for lower club football too. It’s drawn more eyes on the fight these clubs all have. It would be sad to see a team who have been smashing it not promote. Wrexham have been also taking big crowds to away games - it’s good for all the clubs .Halifax had it together the other day and played well. Their keeper did extremely well. Lot of shots on target saved. Halifax had a good game and Wrexham seemed off point - it happens. A Wrexham win vs Notts county could make it a bit more interesting at the top

@@daveg114 I think the problem was that the defender missteps and stops his attempt at a block, definitely a slow reaction tho
Nobody’s gonna mention how clean the celebration from the first goal was 😮
You mentioned it
Given the season we've had I suppose we were due this sort of performance, but what a time to do it.... Hopefully put things back on track on Monday.
Punished by the better team on the day. Massive change in attitude needed for Mon.
"Highlights" a bit of a misnomer for us Wrexham fans. Tough loss. Halifax deserved the win, on to Monday.
Lee is really good player

Foster with the reactions of a dead snail

@@daveg114 essentially (I know you haven’t said it) I think all this stuff about calling him an 8 week PR stunt is ridiculous
@@jackaitken655 shouldn't the goalkeeper move so he can see the ball? That's his job no? I hope he starts for you
Halifax definitely exposed how slow Wrexham's defense is...but these types of matches happen.
What a pitty :/ keep the head up and keep fighting for the Promotion!!! Greetings from 🇩🇪 ❤️🤍
Credit to Halifax. Ali can be next season's VC Langstaff or Mullen. Hopefully we can still be champions.

i agree defending was poor but that doesnt mean the Keeper shouldnt do better... poor play all round id say
''Ben Foster at full.....fall over''
Gutted but still positive for Monday pm
Judging by highlights... Halifax keeper kept them in it and the others went and won it. Good match
Up the town!!!!!!
We are coming for you
Halifax keeper played a blinder!
Bad day at the office Ben Foster, very slow.. Wrexham will struggle on this form, pick it up lads 👍👍
2 and 3 were not his fault. Defender should have cleared the ball or gotten out the way on the first
We didn’t press and play way to far off the ball on Defense. We should had subs in way sooner in the second half, Ben blew it badly but no support hurts too. We didn’t seem to play well on offense and never attacked as well as we did in prior games. Set pieces were lackluster.
Shame we didn’t win but I can see us go into league 2! Cmon Wrexham
Time to bring back Luke Young to the Starting XI

their first loss after 6 games, a tad dramatic isn't it.
Guess who won.
@@user-go1sl6rd7u I stand by what I said. I think it's ours now. We did it. I'm over the moon. :) Foster literally saved it for us, what a man.

We controlled the game well at 1st half. Shocking to see the result.
Wow that pitch looks dreadful
No. Wrexham are dreadful
The pitch is in better condition than our own,so that’s no excuse
Halifax have a really impressive ground for a non league club
I heard wrexham pitch is shit?
They put the Jamie Vardy transfer money to good use 😂
@@evoxrs8889 they didn't Hors around with the money then did they!
Best team won
Fragile Wrexham
Foster slow
😢
Foster made a couple of good saves, but was complicit on the second goal, and a bit questionable on the 3rd. Bad day for the whole defense.
For the third goal? What have you been watching😂
Tit shocking defending all three goals
@@harrymansell4542 positioning. what have you been watching?
Wrexham should not be losing to a ranked 15th team... Wrexham defense sucks!
The defensive line is terribly slow. Glacier like to be truthful. Had it not been for Foster we would've lost by a couple more goals.
Mendehhh
Cmon Notts! ⚫️⚪️
Good try lads but two short of Crawley's 30-match unbeaten run.
Wrexham look tired, you can sense they don't have the legs to keep it up.
First Halifax goal was terrible goalkeeping and has one mind on his gopro...

So reactionary, especially to look at the goalkeeper to blame , which is always the easy choice, rather then hold anyone else accountable.
Pitty you can't sign a good goalkeeper to replace them
How could we lose for the first time since October and for the first time against them since Dezember 2019.
Canın sagolsun wreshamm
commentator sounds like hes out of breath constantly.
All this shit talk bc we lost a game lmfao
wait for Monday
WHAT DID I SAY
Shaymen all the way 🔵⚪️🔵⚪️
1 more loss coming Monday wrexham
I dont think so mate we got Ben foster >:)
yes for county 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Wrexham won't win on Monday and they won't go up. They have a rhythm of f***ing up towards the end of the season and it's a usual thing.
Saving this comment to come back to once Wrexham wins promotion 😁
@@Matt_G824 heed my words of what I said.
You were saying? lol
@@Matt_G824 Sorry, u where right and I was wrong. I will eat humble pie .🌝
Notts County are the best team in the National League by far. Halifax exposed what a shambles Wrexham are. Wrexham will be spending their 17th season in the National League
How can you say that a team on 100 points are a shambles ?
Idiotic comment. We have 100 points. Far from a shambles.
@@BET352wxm because they are!!!! They got stuffed by a team in 15th position in the league ffs. Notts County will destroy them on Monday. COYP!!!!!!!
