The suffering is ........

I'm just so pleased we won the league. This could so easily have been us!!!

Bleak.

I thought they were unlucky tonight.

Doesnt bear thinking about does.it.

Happy we are back in The top 4 leagues.

If you can't score goals you won't win games.

That has been their problem all season, hitting posts and having shots cleared off the line are part of a football match. You must be able to score goals to win matches.

Page won’t load. My heart goes out to them, it really does.

They probably won’t be able to see it atm but their defence is outstanding, keep that together and go out and sign 2 quality strikers and they will experience what we have this year.

12 years. Can you imagine that?

Perhaps I should put one of my reverse jonah bets on them that'll sort them out next season.

Already worked on Braintree.Or something like that.Also got a bet on Man City to win the title.Still time for them to cock it up.

It's a great shame. Wrexham really ought to be in the football league. However, the final table doesn't lie and the plain fact is the team didn't do well enough to get promoted. Even had it been two automatic places they would still have missed out. The play-offs (which I've never liked) gave them a second chance and they've been unable to take it. Football can be very cruel.
I think Wrexham's failure puts our own success into perspective. Clear champions by 3 points.

Feel for Wrexham. Thought they were unlucky with the disallowed goal as well. Proper football club.

Such a shame they didn't progress after clawing their way back when and one point it looked like they were dipping away.

How long in the national League before they stop becoming a proper football club surely after 11 years they've found their level for the time being.

Yes could well have been us, playoffs are like a cup competition, it's all on the day.

Feared that we would do a wrexham. Good job we beat them at home as they went downhill after that

Used to have a girlfriend from near Wrexham. Had to travel a long way to Bangor.

They signed Kemy Agustien, who many on the old board seemed to think was a huge upgrade (despite not being able to spell his name). Played just 3 times for them and couldn't do anything to contribute to promotion.

They will always be a "proper" football club with a pretty decent support, but they seem to be doomed to stay in the National League. Might have a better shot at getting up next season if Salford so up.

Genuinely sad to see them fall short yet again. I had visions of us having to endure a decade or more or non-league, can only imagine how depressed their fans are.

Agreed decent bunch.
