Looks Like closure.

Southampton admitted to cheating as early as their Oxford United match in December 2025. Though they only admitted to only one more before being caught red-handed, common sense tells me that is a lie. This is what the table would look like if every match since the December match got turned into an automatic forfeit:

Who else has a headache?

With Libby and Dom confirmed for their squads, here are the times for the matches where they could appear in the World Cup this June. And if those match times seem ridiculously late... I agree, I triple checked them, basically if you aren't a 'big' football nation the time sucks. I'm sure any Scotland supporters would have words about that and no argument, this is just how they've set it out.

• June 13 9p EST WC Haiti v Scotland (Dom Hyam)
• June 15 9p EST Iran v New Zealand (Libby Cacace)
• June 19 6p EST WC Scotland v Morocco(Dom Hyam)
• June 21 9p EST New Zealand v Egypt (Libby Cacace)
• June 24 6p EST WC Scotland v Brazil (Dom Hyam)
• June 26 11p EST New Zealand v Belgium (Libby Cacace)

I feel like Play-Offs, especially after the expansion, should be the baseline.

Wrexham are probably going to have the largest player bill this upcoming season out of the non-PL-relegated teams.

Obviously 3rd/4th saves the boys that extra match.

Or, just maybe, can we really stick it to Wolves, Burnley and Ham/Spurs and be right in the mix of Automatic next year.

Realistically, just that one place better than this season would be great, once again the highest position ever for the club, but could we technically still be on for Wrexham being a Premier League side for the first time ever in 2027?

Just watched the opening episode to welcome to Wrexham for the current season last night… I didn’t know we were the only championship club that had not had Premier league experience prior. That’s a pretty important statement I think given how well we did this season. To me that makes me feel like this season was even more of an accomplishment for how close we made it to playoffs. I hope we can build upon this past season and step it up even more next year.
