Life's not easy being a Wrexham fan

Life certainly isn't easy as a Wrexham fan at the moment. We're languishing at the bottom of League 2, and today's defeat at Barnet means escaping relegation will be little short of a miracle.

I was reflecting earlier on how my relationship with Wrexham Football Club has changed in the last three years or so - since I started working on the Evening Leader.

Previously I'd been a fan, pure and simple. Now my relationship is more complex. I'm still a fan of course, but I also have to worry about how we cover it as a newspaper and online. Finding something positive to say on Monday won't be easy...

Welcome to my new blog

Welcome to the new home of my blog.

Blog, now there's a word to put you off. If it's any consolation, I don't think of this as a blog at all, rather a random selection of random thoughts.

This isn't my first blog - my previous efforts are available to view at http://www.blogstoday.co.uk/ViewBlog.aspx?BlogId=6tH0z82250Npn7vDn5&sitecode=WREX
but I thought it was time to shake things up a bit after constant badgering from my work colleague, digital editor Christian Dunn, who has been nagging me to give Blogger a try.

So here I am. While on the subject of Mr Dunn, this is the same person that once chatted to Bob Geldof - surely one of the most famous, distinctive faces in the world - and didn't recognise him. Some journalist.

Anyway, feel free to leave me a comment if you feel inclined - I might send a response.
