Touring Australia and New Zealand this summer.

Old news, but unsurprisingly, most of the players whose contracts are expiring are being released.

Probably more will leave on transfers; however, I also have a suspicion that a few players are gonna ride their contracts into the sunset even though they're no longer good enough for the first team… because they're also not good enough to find a comparable salary elsewhere.

All August matches will be on Paramount+.

And evidently this first match is also on Amazon.

Wrexham at Southampton in their championship debut. Up 1-0.

New signings look good and the pressing up front has been fantastic.

Adding… first half results were probably fair, but I'll go ahead and admit now that if this result holds, Wrexham will be lucky. Unfortunate injury to Moore who was fantastic in the first half, but I am happy to see Sam Smith come on.

Sucks. The right result though.

Saints played the first half like they were an EPL relegation team, largely passing backwards and sideways… and then came out in the second half remembering that they're supposed to be favorites.

Hope the Moore injury isn't bad. He is gonna cause problems for defenders this year.

Wrexham let it get a little too easy for Southampton to progress the ball out of their half and into that 30-40 yards away from the Wrexham goal towards the end. Needed to maintain a little more pressure

Well, good news is that they're getting it done in the League Cup for what it's worth. Second comeback win today.

Definite growing pains in the league, though, which was inevitable given the amount of personnel changes this year. Hopefully better days ahead once the window closes and the squad is settled.

That one hurts more than Mullin IMO. Many thought he'd be spared after he got a late double in the first round cup game a couple weeks ago.

But this is what happens when you get promoted three times in a row… most of the players aren't gonna magically get better to match the new level. Might end up being true for Parky as well. Way way too early to tell, but I have a suspicion top half Championship is his peak. I do hope they give him a long leash though… he deserves the whole year unless they're in relegation danger IMO.

First league win, and on the road against Millwall. Scoreline flatters Wrexham greatly as both goals were largely Millwall keeper blunders, but they did play well and deserved a draw in my opinion (despite the lopsided stats).

Good win for them today. I think Parkinson is too central a figure in this whole thing and has too much goodwill built up for them to sack him mid-season, if things go south.

It doesn't feel like that fits with the brand and the story they've been building.
