Welcome to RHF: In The Spotlight. I am Wolvensam, and during the absence of our usual spotlight master, FezNTFC (well he's here now.. but he wasn't when I was taking questions!) I will be taking over the reigns. The questions asked are interesting, crazy, whacky, serious, personal, intimate, and some are just downright rude!
This weeks member in the Red Hotseat is Bismarck, our resident Wrexham fan.

Bumbling around 606 one night in work I came across this advert...I clicked it and the rest,as they say is history...

I was here that night when Olly stole Tyler's account.....very naughty I know but boy did I laugh...

Ha ha Arover has a dodgy hip and I am 16 stone...Gerry and Ben would be interesting but I think Ben would prevail...plays Rugger and used to getting the knocks.
Questions from the Members:
What's the best thing about being Welsh?
Wow,how long have you got...The main thing is that we are proud to be what we are and don't tend to put ourselves down as much as the English do.
Worst moment being a Wrexham fan?
Last seasons relegation was terrible for me....just terrible.
Best moment (not in the FA Cup) being a Wrexham fan?
I have already spoke about the LDV but watching Gary Bennett in the 90's will always be etched on my memory..
Who is/was your biggest idol?
It was my Grandfather....8th army Staff Sergeant,taught me manners,respect and to stand up for myself....he died in 1984 and I still miss him now.
5 cows in a field who is on holiday?
Now I wonder who this is off.....lateral thinking needed.....All of them because it's Moo Years Day.....
What single thing would you change from the last 40 years either to have improved your own life or the state of the world?
Only one thing....to have saved my mothers life that terrible day she died in a house fire.....
Any regrets in life?
See above...
What do you feel is optimistic about the future?
You have to be don't you...you probably guess from my posts I am a bit of a clown.....I cannot stay around miserable people for long as they annoy and depress me....this is not a dry run...live life to the full I say...
Do you reckon Wrexham will get promoted this season?
Undecided...I hope so but this league throws out some funny results...I am optimistic.
Do you receive a lot of stick for being Welsh?
Living in Wales I have to say none at all to be honest...and I never have...
Brian Little, your thoughts?
Jury still out-this his now his team...only time will tell...
