Wrexham Supporters’ Association is holding its AGM at the Llay Welfare on October 31st at 7pm. All members are invited to attend and new members can join us on the night. There will be a general knowledge quiz following the AGM at 8pm – entry is £5 for a team of four.

Following the retirement of Ray Clarke, Dave Davies and Phil Davies last season the Supporters’ Association is now looking for new people to join our committee. Last season we raised almost £20,000 from the 50/50 competition and the NEWI Car Park and we’re looking for new people and new ideas to raise even more money.

Kevin Hughes has already joined us to organise the 50/50 competition on matchdays following Phil Davies’ retirement, whilst Paul Evans is helping us to improve the co-ordination of our membership section. This is an exciting time to join the Supporters’ Association as we look to bring new people on board and work with the football club to make it a success.

If you would like to attend the AGM, please feel free to come along on the night, ask questions and enjoy the quiz afterwards. If you are interested in getting involved in our committee please contact our Secretary, Richard Owen at rowen@wrexhamdragons.co.uk by October 17th for a nomination form.

Wrexham Supporters’ Association is trying to put a Wrexham fan based in Cape Town in South Africa back in touch with his cousins who are believed to live in the Wrexham area.

Ronnie Edwards, a referee assessor and member of the Cape Town Tygerberg Referee’s Association, is trying to locate his father’s family whom he believes still live in the Wrexham area. Ronnie’s father, the late John Edward Edwards, was born and raised in Wrexham before he emigrated to South Africa to get married just after the Second World War.

John Edwards was the son of the late Emma Sarah Edwards and Samuel Edward Edwards of Wrexham. He had three brothers, Albert George, Cyril Raymond and Leonard Robert Edwards and three sisters, Brenda, Irene and Stella. Ronnie understands that his aunt, Irene, still lives in the Wrexham area and has a daughter called Wendy who is married to Christopher.

Unfortunately Ronnie does not know Wendy and Christopher’s surname, but understands that they have two sons called Steven and Mark. Ronnie would very much like to get back in touch with Irene and his cousins, Steven and Mark. Ronnie still follows Wrexham’s results from South Africa and has just become a member of Wrexham Supporters’ Association.

The presentations will be then be followed by Liverpudlian comedian, and Radio Merseyside presenter Willie Miller, and will be concluded with a fund raising auction of football memorabilia. It’s a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon before a long overdue summer break!

Show your support for Wrexham FC

The Evening Leader wants to hear from fans all across the world in a show of support to keep the Reds up. The Leader is throwing its support behind Wrexham Football Club who are on the verge of relegation.

Supporters and residents have all spoken out about the importance of keeping Brian Carey’s team in League Two. But the Reds have only five games left to save themselves from relegation into the Nationwide Conference.

Successful businessman and Wrexham FC’s co-owner, Neville Dickens, is only too aware of the benefits of Wrexham having a Football League club.

“Wrexham as a town deserves a Football League club - it is important that we keep our status,” he said.

“Having a Football League club in the town gives an economic boost to Wrexham - not just from visiting fans but from our own fans who provide a big income to businesses in the town center,” Mr Dickens added.

So come on, we want to hear your comments and messages of support to the club.

“It’s just like watching Wrexham,” sang the Wales fans on Tuesday night when our national side beat Lichtenstein 4-0 at the Racecourse.

Super Stevie Evans capped a fantastic week with his first Welsh cap against the smallest national team in Europe. Evans was superb against Stevenage last weekend, his constant running eventually setting up Danny Williams’s goal. Against Lichtenstein, Evans looked every bit the seasoned international player and should be given another chance to shine in the not too distant future.

It was back to business last weekend after the Hall of Fame award night. Unfortunately Brian Flynn and Johnny Edwards were unable to attend due to previous engagements, so the Association is planning to present awards to these legends in the near future. Flynn has already received word of his award and is said to be making room in his trophy cabinet for the certificate!

The Association is very pleased to announce that Dave Mcguire won the 50/50 draw against Stevenage with winning number 04999. For those of you who don’t know Dave, he’s worked extremely hard in the Club Shop and thoroughly deserves his good fortune. Dave has also signed up almost 250 members for the Association this season from the Club Shop.
