Ultimately, it's actually a safer choice than the Keates and Ricketts appointments. They were gambles that paid off though, which is why it seems odd that we haven't gone down a similar route. Clearly the way they have gone about it is exceedingly odd.
Wonder if we'll get an assistant manager...
The club tweeting that Barrow wants to stay indicates he will be staying as assistant and the new guy will be working with him.
Lawrence would fit in with the same philosophy we employed when appointing Ricketts and Keates. Given how far we've come in the last couple of years it would be daft...
There is logic to that.
Failing at Shrewsbury was perhaps all part of Askey's plan to land his ultimate dream job at Wrexham that he applied for 146 times previously.
You'll be favourites for sure. Our record at home this season has been pretty great though. Stuart Beavon is the only geriatric we've got at 34, but he's been in excellent form.
Looking forward to it.

I've been surprised at how many games Harris has played for Tranmere to be honest. Aside from the odd good game, mostly as his contract was running out, he looked done for the last two seasons with us. He was particularly poor under Andy Morrell in that 2013-2014 Newport playoff final hangover...
You did burst into life second half and looked a bit more like the Aldershot from previous seasons going forward. Certainly should have scored one really.
First half you tried to pass the football, but created nothing I can remember. The most ineffective side I've seen this season for those...
Jalal can look good at his best, but I'm pretty sure Chesterfield could have got a more reliable goalkeeper in. We've had better and more consistent keepers playing for us since we've been non-league for the last 40 years or something. Wrexham fans were fairly content with him being released...
Rutherford fully deserves a new contract and I'm pleased that Holroyd has agreed a new deal too. Other forwards and creative players simply weren't good enough. Kelly was pretty decent on set pieces, but patchy elsewhere. I don't think our system particularly suited him, but he looked like a...
A frustrated Akinde getting sent off at the Racecourse for a dive after a Manny Smith masterclass in just about dealing with him was a glorious moment in none league history.
3 years is one year too long I think, but Ricketts seems like a bloke who could be successful in management. In many respects he feels like an upgrade on Dean Keates. I like that we're continuing with the post Gary Mills strategy of employing a young modern thinking manager with potential. And...
So Adrian Viveash is the early favourite to take over. The name I noticed that was displaced as strong favourite for the Walsall job by Dean Keates.

Is he just the man linked will all jobs now?
I have done some brief research and he did get his UEFA...
Shit that should have happened after Wilkin got the sack shouldn't it.
Edit: Not the Harrison coming in bit obviously. Although he would stand a better chance of not completely failing with us.
Poor form at the minute maybe, but you finished in the playoffs less than 12 months ago which was a great achievement and were in a playoff spot 3 games ago. Only 5 points off them now.
Calls for Still to go seem ludicrously extreme from the outside.
Thank fuck the national league random fixture generator didn't come up with that one. Say no to Shatner's Bassoon stimulation man. The last thing I want to see down the racecourse is someone puking up their own pelvis bone. It's just a game.
