    Fantastic win but that sounded like we took a right pummelling second half.
    Great to finally win at home though. UTR

    Certainly rode our luck at times but really good win. Two great goals and determined defending. Well in reds

    Oh you bet he will. "Wrexham the better team for long periods will be disappointed to leave a wet South Yorkshire with nothing to show for their magnificent efforts!" or some such crap!

    I'm not sure this was a game for Nwakali, a bit physical in midfield

    Great win that hopefully puts some belief and fire in our bellies for the rest of the season. Scares me to death when our entire midfield seems to disappear though.

    Well the 2nd half was hard to watch. Some really poor play and game management, balanced out by a couple of very good saves and some dogged defending. Fair play to Wrexham they couldn't have done much more outside scoring.

    Let's hope this is the home form turnaround we needed.

    'kin 'ell. Great win. But that was the worst I've seen from Clarke all season. There's some of us out here trying to defend you mate and yet within 5 minutes of the second half you tried to throw it away. I can't think of any other explanation for what you did other than you genuinely tried to ensure we lost. And you very nearly achieved it. What were you thinking? And then, to not make other substitutions that were just obvious. Weirdest management of a game I've ever seen. For once we looked solid in defence and potent in attack and you just decided to destroy that. Bizarre.

    Well done Killip and thank you.

    To be fair Wrexham hardly misplaced a pass in that second half....a bit more steadiness from us when their attacks broke down would have been useful...instead of looking for the clever through ball and giving it straight back to them .

    Phew! Did we deserve it? I don't care! Two brilliant goals, first half excellent performance. Second half resembled a football version of Rorke's Drift. Well done lads. Killip my MOTM.

    Well we won but I can’t really enjoy the win and the 3 points.
    I just feel so sorry for Wrexham, how dare we not roll over and just give them the win , totally ruined it for the 20,000 travelling fans!

    Two lovely goals with composed finishes, but also great work by Watters for the second. Let's hope that's the start of a better year at home. I suspect that second half might derail a few Dry Januaries though. I'm off to make myself a peppermint tea to settle my nerves.

    thought the conditions knackered it up a lot more for our style of play than theirs
