"The aim has been to take this to the wire and that's what we spoke to the lads about."

"As ever it's patience, making sure we can hold our nerve to get the right players in who we feel can make a difference."

"I feel with us that we have improvement in the group because a lot of the lads came in late [last year] and it took us a while to get to know them individually and to work with them collectively."

"I felt that it took us a while to get the players to understand what playing for Wrexham meant and what the requirements are."

"We feel we're not where we need to be yet and we know that."

"there were 'no guarantees' that Wrexham would further bolster their squad prior to the 23:00 BST transfer deadline on 1 September."

"Unfortunately Tommo got injured last week, and he's going to be out for 10 weeks."

"We're delighted to have got him over; he's been with us for a couple of days of training and has settled in well."

"I thought the referee handled the atmosphere well, but in the big decision he didn't make the right call."

"Broady has strained his thigh in training, which is a shame because he was training well."

"Yes."

"Josh is fine, he's had a really good week and I'm pleased with him this week."

"Ben's also had a good week on the training ground, which he needed also."
