PRESS CONFERENCE QUOTES

Denis Smith: “I think the result was the right one and the performance was disappointing to a point. We got done by a move that we had talked about which was frustrating. Carlos Edwards was still in Trinidad, they got in our faces and got at us. I don’t think we’ve had one chance but then again they’ve only had two. You are never out of it at 1-0, there is always the chance that something will drop. Chris Armstrong had a couple of half chances at the end of the first half, but they closed us down and that’s not us. I will not make excuses by saying that they are a top of the table side. We are in the same division as them, I want to compete and I want to finish higher than them if I can.” [Source: Wrexham AFC]

Danny Wilson: "You can never feel entirely secure with only a one-goal lead, but I was always comfortable with it because we were defending so solidly. Many aspects of the performance pleased me. We should probably have won by more, but I didn't think we had much luck in front of goal. The big thing is that we have to keep working now we are top of the table and the lads could not be faulted in that respect. We made a bright start and Luke has come up with the goal to reward it, which is so important in home games. From then on we were always in control." [Source: Bristol City FC]
Denis Smith: "You might think it’s ambitious on today’s performance but I know we are capable of being right up there at the end." [Source: Nationwide Football]
Danny Wilson: "Wrexham came here with eight away wins, more than any other side in the Nationwide League. They have been fantastic away and this was a concern for me but in fact they never worried us." [Source: Nationwide Football]
