PENMON FAMILY HISTORY AND RELATED TOPICS

I have supported Wrexham since the 1960's when my father used to take me to The Racecourse Ground, in the days of Albert Kinsey, Dave Gaskell, Dave Powell and many others. We sat in the old wooden Mold Road stand.
It really saddens me to think of their current plight in the Blue Square Premier League.
I have pleasure here in featuring one of the most memorable season's in the club's history - 1977/78 - Third Division Champions, having come so very close under John Neal the previous season. If you have any Wrexham memories you'd like to share, please contact me on mail@penmon.org

STOCKPORT COUNTY

Pre-match;
Transfer listed at his own request, Billy Ashcroft, valued at £120,000 will play. Former manager John Neal is keen to sign him at Middlesbough. Out are Griffiths and Evans who is suspended. Fitness doubt on Dwyer.

UNHAPPY ARFON THANKS LLOYD

Match Report;
Keeper Brian Lloyd kept Wrexham ahead with two fine saves at the end. Wrexham had most of the play, missed many chances and hit the woodwork twice. Two penalty appeals for fouls on Mickey Thomas were also turned down.
Ashcroft scored the only goal of the match, having been put through by Shinton in the 40th minute. A disappointing performance overall against the 4th division side, who improved as the game progressed.

WREXHAM THROUGH DESPITE LATE SHOCK

Match Report;
The home side put Wrexham through their paces in the first half with a spirited performance. Shinton and Ashcroft came close to scoring. Wrexham's goal came from Whittle, who headed in a rebound off the bar following a smart turn and shot from Ashcroft. Griffiths, coming on as substitute, deflected a County shot past Lloyd into his own net in the last minute. Wrexham through to the next round, where they will meet Charlton Athletic at The Valley.

SHREWSBURY TOWN
(1) 2 v 1 (1)
WREXHAM

Pre-match;
Whittle with a broken ankle and new £40,000 signing Cartwright injured miss the opening game. Griffiths names a squad of 13 as Wrexham kick off 77/78 following last season's disappointment..

OWN-GOAL SHATTERS WREXHAM

Wrexham keeper Brian Lloyd's own goal gave Shrewsbury the points on the opening day with 7 minutes remaining, as he punched a clearance into his own net.
A bizarre goal by Ashcoft gave the Robins the lead on 30 minutes. He fell in a heap with a Shrewsbury defender and their keeper on the penalty spot, stuck out his leg to effectively roll the ball into an empty net.
Lloyd failed to control a Graham Turner header just before half time, and the home side were level.
Despite losing, losing Wrexham were in good form with Shinton, Ashcroft and Lee up front and outstanding Thomas and Roberts behind them.

WREXHAM
(1) 2 v 2 (1)
OXFORD UNITED

Pre-match;
Ashcroft doubtful after injury, but plays. Whittle and Cartwright still on injury list. Mickey Evans back as sub after his suspension. Niedzwiecki in line for debut in place of Lloyd in goal. Ashcroft likely to leave the club.

POOR REWARD FOR LEE AND WREXHAM

Twice behind, the Robins fight back for a draw. Spirited performance sees the home side hit the woodwork four times. Lee came close to scoring many times.
Ex Robin David Fogg put the visitors ahead with a 25 yard screamer. Shinton heade Wrexham level on 36 mins following good work by Thomas and Dwyer.
However Oxford regained the lead on 64 mins when Foley headed in from Seacole's cross. Roberts squared matters on 75 mins when he blasted the ball home from a corner.
Wrexham maintained the pressure but could not snatch the winner. A point lost at home. Another rousing performance, but how did they concede two goals when they dominated so much?

Pre-match;
Ashcroft set to play his last game for Wrexham before a big money move to first division outfit, Middlesborough. Replacement target's club unwilling to sell. Young Niedzwiecki keeps his place in goal. Cartwright set for debut.

TRY-AGAIN WREXHAM OUT OF LUCK

Match Report;
Weak finishing and bad passing cost Wrexham victory. The team is way behind the form they showed last season. Shinton went close before Ken Beamish put Vale ahead, leaving Niedzwiecki helpless. Ashcroft then hit the bar from a Thomas cross. Right back Connaughton was booked for diving to palm away a Shinton header, and Griffiths netted from the spot to level the scores.
Les Carwright had a useful debut having signed from Coventry. Neither side could add to their goal tallies - another point dropped by WrexhaM.

Pre-match;
Stuart Lee replaces transferred Ashcroft. Manager Griffiths states their problem is not scoring goals. Wrexham hope to knock out another First Division club, as they did with Leicester and Spurs last season.

DRAMA AS WREXHAM MARCH ON

Match Report;
Two goals in the last ten minutes saw Wrexham through to the next round at the Valley. They played neat, superbly organised football with Davis and Roberts at the back thwarting normally free scoring Charlton. Shinton, Lee and Cartwright came close in the first half and Lee should have netted early in the second. Flannagan put the home side ahead on 65th minute with a penalty when Roberts sent Abraham flying in the box. Wrexham came level with a magnificent piece of play by Shinton, who lobbed the ball over a line of five Charlton defenders, catching keeper Wood off his line.
Shortly after that, Roberts put a through ball to Cegielski, but Smith intercepted and slid the ball into his own net, to give Wrexham a deserved lead.
Charlton manager Andy Nelson said that Wrexham had his side on the rack from start to finish. He was only glad that Wrexham are not in their division. You have to really hold your hands up to them the way they dominated the game.
Wrexham are drawn at home to another First Division side, Bristol City in the 3rd round .

3rd September 1977

PETERBOROUGH UNITED
(0) 2v2 (1)
WREXHAM

Pre-match; Alan Hill replaces Micky Evans at full back, the latter having failed a fitness test, Whittle also missing through injury.

SUPER SHOW - THEN ARFON'S BOYS SLIP

Match Report;
Another league match without a win, which actually looked on the cards on the 68th minute, when Bobby Shinton scored his second goal, giving the Robins a 2v0 lead.
His first was a 20 yard cracker into the corner of the net on 14 minutes. Wrexham were impressive in the first half with Arfon Griffiths playing a major role. The defence was sound. Wrexham continued on top in the second half with Lee and Sutton coming close to scoring.
Shinton added his second when he slipped a left footed shot past the keeper.
Peterborough fought back within a minute when veteran Tommy Robson headed home, and Turner pulled them level following good work from Turner. Only sound tackling by Davies and Roberts saved the day for Wrexham.
At times, the visitors showed signs of being able to chase promotion again this season.

Pre-match; Evans still doubtful as the Robins hope for a first win of the season.

SHINTON MAKES ARFON'S PLAN TICK

Match Report; Two goals in an eight minute spell in the first half sealed this confidence boosting victory for Wrexham. Man of the match Shinton gave Wrexham the lead on 30 miniutes, from an Alan Dwyer free kick which was headed back from John Roberts to Stuart Lee who nodded it to Shinton to net his fifth of the season.
Another free kick saw Cartwright back heel the ball to Gareth Davis who netted well.
Niedzwiecki in goal had an exceptional game in difficult weather conditions and the back four was solid throughout.

RAMPANT ROVERS WRECK WREXHAM

Match Report; Tranmere climb to second place with four wins out of five matches after this victory. Tynan put the home side ahead on 13 minutes with a clever move involving Philpotts, Peplow and Ronnie Moore.
Evans put Tranmere further ahead four minutes into the scond half following a one-two between him neat and Moore. Six minutes from time, Peplow added a third, cleverly rounding two defenders before slotting the ball home.
Shinton scored a consilation goal for the visitors in the final minute with a fine 20 yard drive.
Despite this defeat, Wrexham again produced good work during the match, without getting any reward.

(1) 1v0 (0)
WREXHAM

Pre-match; Player manager Arfon Griffiths drops himself and Stuart Lee from the line up following their last defeat. Graham Whittle returns for his first game of the season. Hill plays full back in place of Evans who turns out at midfield. Teenager Niedzwiecki keeps his place. Wrexham won the corresponding fixture 6v0 last season.
Hereford United have agreed to sell their leading scorer Dixie McNeil to Wrexham for £60,000.

WREXHAM TRIERS MISS THE POINT

Match Report;
A penalty conceded on 18 minutes by Alan Hill put paid to Wrexham's hopes of a second league win. They should at least have taken away a point. The Robins had looked impressive with chances from Shinton and Sutton.
Ogrizovic in Chesterfield's goal was on form, particularly during a second half spell. Whittle on his return, added fire to the Wrexham attack, but Griffith's must be praying that his bid for McNeil of Hereford goes through today, as Wrexham hover just above the relegation positions.

Pre-match; Arfon Griffiths parades two new signings for today's home game. Dixie McNeil of Hereford is joined by former Evertonian and current Welsh International keeper, Dai Davies. Griffiths is optimistic that his team will again be in the promotion reckoning soon. Thomas returns to midfield having played for Wales against Kuwait in mid week.

ARFON AFFORDS A £70,000 WINNING SMILE

Match Report;
Debutants McNeil and Davies make a big confidence boosting difference in a fine win over 6th placed Swindon Town. 8,002 supporters saw McNeil open the scoring on 17 minutes following a fine move involving Sutton and Thomas. He then laid on Wrexham's second for Whittle after 57 minutes. Davies produced a world class save. Moss scored a consolation goal for the visitors and Sutton could could have given the home a side a third. Wrexham fought for every ball in a nerve tingling and absorbing match.

(1) 1v1 (1)
WREXHAM

Pre-match; Keeper Brian Lloyd has attracted interest from Chester, Gillingham and Northampton Town, since the arrival of Dai Davies. John Lyons and Mike Williams sign for Bangor City on loan.

STALEMATE! DRAB RIVALS FAIL TO INSPIRE IN 'DERBY'.

Match Report;
Plenty of mistakes and bad passing summed up this poor derby - the worst at Sealand Road for years. Whittle put the Robins ahead on 18 minutes following a lob from Cartwright, but allowed the home side back into the game nine minutes later, when Bob Delgado nodded in a simple goal. Chester had two chances in the second half to go in front, but failed. Shinton headed over from a Thomas corner and Whittle hit the bar with a header.
A forgetable match. Lloyd signs for Chester for £6,000 after just one game this season

Pre-match; Wrexham hope to field their most expensive team this season, following the signings of Dixie McNeil and Dai Davies this week. Manager Arfon Griffiths names himself as substitute.

GRIFFITHS' MAGIC
SWINGS IT WREXHAM'S WAY

Match Report;
Despite facing a fierce wind, Wrexham produced most of the attacking play, in what was a poor first half. Griffiths made all the difference when he came on early in the second half, releasing Mickey Thomas to the left wing.
Two corners and a free kick in quick succession paid off, despite Lincoln's frantic defensive efforts, as a Shinton jab, resulted in the ball going in off the post to give the Robins the lead on 63 minutes.
A second goal was disallowed six minutes from time when Lincoln's keeper was adjudged to have been fouled seconds before McNeil netted the ball.

CAMBRIDGE UNITED

Pre-match; Wrexham are likely to name Mickey Thomas as substitute for tonight's game against Cambridge, who are just a point behind them, with a game in hand.

ARFON'S BIG BUYS TURN ON THE STYLE

Match Report;
New boys McNeil and Cartwright were the stars in their biggest win of the season so far. Wrexham took the lead on 15 minutes thanks to an own goal, following a Whittle back head from a Davis centre, which was bungled over the line. This was just rewards following a lot of early Wrexham pressure. However Biley levelled the scores ten minutes before half time.
McNeil hit two goals in a devastating start to the second half, in which Cartwight was outstanding. Evans netted one in between McNeil's brace of goals.
Cambridge manager, Ron Atkinson summed up his feelings, saying "If Wrexham go on like that, they'll win the Third Division by a mile." .
