Wrexham returned to league and cup action this week with defeats against MK Dons and Rochdale respectively. On a positive note, Craig Morgan celebrated his call up to the Welsh squad with a return on loan to the club that launched his career. However, Smith’s small squad was dealt a further blow with news that Neil Roberts needs an operation on his troublesome ankle.
Craig returns to strengthen Wrexham’s defence which has been weakened by the loss of Denis Lawrence and injuries to key players. The retirement of Brian Carey has also been significant in that he brought so much experience to the team. Brian has remained at the club in a coaching capacity and has a big influence on the excellent young players coming through.
Big Brian joined Wrexham in 1991 on loan from Manchester United and immediately made a big impression. He later joined Leicester City after failing to breakthrough into a world class United team, before joining Wrexham permanently in a £100,000 deal in 1996. His signing was pivotal to the team that Brian Flynn built in the 1990’s and was key to much of the FA Cup and league success.
