One goal.
One moment.
One striker strong enough to carry it home.

#WTSMOTM Samuel Toby Smith. Isn't Toby just the most adorable middle name? 🥹🫶

#WxmThirstSection #WxmAFC #AskWxm
Arms thrown wide, chest open, facing the crowd. Sam Smith stands there like a man who knows exactly what he’s done and is happy to let it wash over him. This isn’t frantic celebration. It’s possession of the moment. Feet planted, shoulders back, arms open, receiving the love rather than chasing it. Mud streaked kit because he came to WORK and he was right at the centre of a moment that mattered. The crowd before him, arms raised, faces open, mid-shout, mid-laugh. Physically, the image explains the goal as much as the commentary does. Broad shoulders and solid upper arms holding the pose without strain. Triceps and forearms taut from control and balance, not flexing. Core upright, steady, doing the quiet work of keeping everything composed just like in his performance. Below that, powerful thighs and dense calves built for arriving first and staying upright when it counts. Striker muscle. Functional, compact, earned. And that’s exactly how the match played out. One high-value chance. One clean finish from close range. No panic, no overthinking. He got there and did the job. After that, it was about control, discipline, and seeing the match out which Wrexham did to take the three points. Player and supporters locked together in mutual agreement: yes, this was enough. P.S. We could do with less nervy bits, tho.

Three goals.
Two in stoppage time.
One man absolutely refusing to let us leave without 3 points.

#WTSMOTM: Ollie Rathbone 🔴🐉

#WxmThirstSection #WxmAFC #AskWxm
You ain't got no Rathbone! Ollie! Ollie! Ollie! Ollie is captured sprinting towards the away end right after his match-winning goal like the emotion of the moment is chasing him and he’s trying to make his way to the stands before it overtakes him. One knee high, studs barely kissing the turf, body pitched forward. That’s pure adrenaline doing the driving. His mouth is open in a full, uncontrolled roar. Not for the crowd, not for the camera. Sound ripping out of him before his brain has caught up. You can almost hear it. That raw "OH MY GOD DID I JUST DO THAT?" The yellow of the away kit pops violently against the green of the pitch and the dark of the stands in the background. Ollie looks illuminated, spotlighted, like the match has narrowed to one figure and everyone else has been temporarily dismissed. Proper away-end celebration fuel. This wasn’t a clean, polite winner. This was commitment, timing, and absolute conviction. Explosive. This pic captures the instant after belief became fact. It feels stolen, urgent, emotional; exactly how that finish felt. NEVER EVER EVER EVER LEAVE A WREXHAM MATCH EARLY. Ollie Rathbone isn't just our Man of the Match. He dragged three fucking points out of the match whether it wanted to give them up or not. Unclean. Messy. Chaotic in just the right way. Perfect. Pic from Wrexham AFC IG.

#WTSMOTM isn’t about tactical diagrams or heat maps. It's about feeling. Something clicked, even if the end result didn’t fully cooperate. We dropped points, but we did not drop that Wrexham aura.

Let the dance do the talking.

#WxmThirstSection #WxmAFC #AskWxm
Pic found on the Wrexham AFC IG account and OH this is perfect. Absolutely deranged in exactly the right way. Let’s break down why this image is doing elite WTSMOTM propaganda work: 1. The pose That half-shimmy, half-boxer bounce is doing so much heavy lifting. It’s not a choreographed celebration, it’s instinctive joy leaking out of the body. Arms tucked in, shoulders loose, knees bent like he’s catching a rhythm only he can hear. That’s authenticity. That’s a "I’m not even aware cameras exist" vibe. 2. The face Big grin. Slight squint. The expression of a man who knows he’s played well and who's having a ridiculous amount of fun in that moment. Nobody can take that away, even if two points were cruelly stolen later. This is pre-equaliser innocence, frozen in time. Powerful stuff. 3. The context clues Rain in the air, lights blazing, crowd blurred into a glowing wall of noise. Teammates drifting in the background like the proudest of witnesses. The pitch looking unreal, almost too green, like it’s been created specifically for this moment. It screams "night game energy". Proper football. None of that sterile afternoon nonsense.

Tough night. We demonstrated some decent work rate, some fight, and some refusal to disappear when the game tilted the wrong way.

Not enough for a win tho.

Sam Smith takes #WTSMOTM.

#WxmThirstSection #WxmAFC #AskWxm
Sam Smith in a red kit launches into the air in celebration, knees bent and arms wide, body twisted mid-jump. Muscles tense through his thighs and calves as his boots leave the turf. A red flag waves behind in the stands, crowd blurred but buzzing, capturing a moment of pure adrenaline and momentary dominance.

Premier League pedigree meets absolute audacity.

Shots came fast. Pressure came heavy. And still we held fast.

There’s a new Sheriff in town. He’s built from perseverance and intent.

And his name is Arthur Okonkwo.

#WTSMOTM 🔴🐉

#WxmThirstSection #WxmAFC #AskWxm
Arthur Okonkwo in a mint-green kit is suspended mid-air like he forgot gravity exists. Body twisted. Core engaged. Legs scissored. Braids flying. Gloved hands reaching upward. His back seemingly inches from the net, muscles taut, expression locked in. This is not a save. This is domination. (Pic is from a FotMob article here: https://www.fotmob.com/news/1m79n5o5ukc3h1v7jfqei7e0ki-wrexham-3-3-nottingham-forest-aet-4-3-pens-okonkwos-penalty-heroics-settle-fa-cup-classic)
