Key events
Wrexham boss Phil Parkinson talks to Sky. “It’s business as usual for us … you have to embrace it [the outside noise] … the emotion of the Chelsea [FA Cup] game obviously takes a bit out of you … this is a huge game tonight … a Welsh derby … a chance to cement ourselves in the top six … tonight is about taking care of our own business.”
The Wrexham co-chairmen Rob Mac and Ryan Reynolds are going to call the plays commentate on this game tonight for Sky Sports. Reynolds is all too aware that this gig differs significantly from the day job: “One take, that’s all we get.” Mac adds: “I am terrified.” We might as well listen in, but please don’t worry about jumping between genres, gentlemen: if Ally McCoist can hold his own on the silver screen with Robert Duvall, you’ve surely got it within you to field this.
Preamble
This is ostensibly an affair between two Welsh concerns: Wrecsam ac Dinas Abertawe. But it’s not just that, is it. It’s Philadelphia versus California. It’s X-Men versus G-funk. It’s Don’t Forget versus Drop It Like It’s Hot. It’s Fight Milk versus Chandon. Rob Mac, Ryan Reynolds and Snoop Dogg have changed everything. Kick-off is at 8pm GMT. Mae ymlaen!
