Just a quick personal message: I applied for the media team job at @Wrexham_AFC which was advertised in March, and discovered today that I didn’t get it. This is the second time I’ve applied in the last year, and finally I accept, reluctantly, that I’ll never achieve my dream 1/

of working for the club. Both processes were drawn out and exhausting, and I can’t put myself through that again.

I had ambitious ideas to expand on the voluntary work I already do for the club, especially with @WrexhamAFCWomen, but obviously they will not now be
2/

implemented.

I must emphasise that I know I have no God-given right to a job at the club, I’ve no issue whatsoever with the decision, and I completely accept that there are plenty of much better people than me out there. My acceptance of those facts doesn’t mean I can’t feel 3/

this disappointment deeply. I’m heart-broken, but perhaps it’s good to have clarity on my position as I plan for the future.

Obviously, I’ll cut back on my work from now on: the club have employed someone else to create content and I respect that. If the club is willing, 4/

I will continue to commentate and put some podcasts out. I’ve not spoken to anyone about that yet, but I’m hopeful that’ll be acceptable.

Right, I’m switching my devices off and taking a break for a bit while I soak it all in.

Bye for now!
