Yousef Salech: I think Wrexham are looking for a derby

Yousef Salech:
"I think this game maybe meant more to them than it did to us.
I think they're looking for a rival, looking for a derby so it's someone to compare themselves to like that and I don't see them as that right now."

Spot on, Yousef Salech! 
New Wrexham FC, are one of those ‘modern’ phenomenon clubs, who have done exceptionally well (particularly for their location and size) under the media spotlight!
I don’t begrudge them; I only wish our club had owners as ‘driven’ as the ‘Hollywood Connection’
However, their geographical location, means that Chester City apart, they don’t really have any true ‘rivalries’ they can call their own, so cling to us for the only obvious reasons of being ‘Welsh’ and their ‘capital’ club
Last night, we put them to the sword, and credit to our team, we deserved it; but now, we move on and we prepare for another game on Saturday at Peterborough in the FA Cup 1st Round
They might be ‘smarting’ right now, but Wrexham need to do the same!
