Huge - and making the news

The Carl Griffiths ‘transfer’: What on earth is going on?

What happened?

Wtrexham fan comes on loan; scores four goals in five games; does a good impression of a guy who’d love to play for Wrexham; he kind of pedigree lower-divisions striker we’re crying out for…and Flynn makes a measly bid to get his man. Griffiths then scores in his first two games back for Leyton Orient. Is this whole thing a bad joke – or what?

What did they say?

"I was quite emotional saying farewell to the lads after the game. I really like it at Wrexham and I’d love to sign for them full-time" (Carl Griffiths, Evening Leader)

"We never close the door in such situations and hopefully we might not have seen the last of him" (Flynn, Matchday Programme, 20 Feb)

What next?

Flynn ups his bid and gets his man? Griffiths moves out of contract and begs to rejoin his Wrexham chums? Flynn stays weak and feeble, the Reds remain impotent in front of goal…and Wrexham join Leyton Orient (and Griffiths) in Division 3? Watch this space.
