Red Dragons had not lost since SeptemberCame unstuck away at AccringtonHollywood co-chairmen in America for F1 actionWHAT HAPPENED?
The Red Dragons suffered a 2-0 reversal at the hands of Accrington Stanley in their latest League Two outing – with that setback representing their first since September 23. A productive run, which included eight wins, has kept them in the promotion hunt while also making progress in FA Cup and Football League Trophy competition.

Accrington were given added incentive ahead of their meeting with Wrexham as a ticket price storm broke out – with club co-chairmen Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney in Las Vegas for a Formula 1 event – while Phil Parkinson’s side endured an afternoon to forget at Wham Stadium as they were breached on two occasions and saw star striker Paul Mullin miss a penalty.
WHAT THEY SAID
Parkinson expects his side to respond in positive fashion to a rare loss, saying when asked to assess his team’s last performance and throw things forward to their next: “On a windy, wet day at Accrington, when they got that first goal they really dug deep and they were physical. Their two centre-backs, give them credit, were very strong and then we have got to chase the game and we leave ourselves a bit open defensively and look as though we could get exposed on the break. But we never got enough control in the game with the ball. We have been on an outstanding run and you look at the away games we have had; Notts County, Bradford and Mansfield twice, some really tough games and we have come out with flying colours. We are going to get too despondent. On the journey we are on, there are going to be knocks. We will pick ourselves up very quickly and come out all guns blazing ready for next weekend.”

Wrexham will be back on home soil on Saturday when playing host to Morecambe – who have seen manager Derek Adams leave in order to rejoin Ross County – with the Red Dragons sat fourth in the table, level on points with Notts County as the Magpies fill the third automatic promotion spot.
