ToggleWHAT HAPPENED?
The Red Dragons headed into their latest League Two fixture on an 11-game unbeaten run in all competitions. That positive sequence of results came to a crashing halt against Stanley, as Phil Parkinson’s side went down 2-0 at Wham Stadium – with co-owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney watching on from afar during their Formula 1-themed visit to Las Vegas.

THE BIGGER PICTURE
The two sides became embroiled in a war of words prior to kick-off – which has carried over into the post-match discussion – and Lee concedes that the Welsh outfit were a long way short of their best against fellow promotion hopefuls.

WHAT THEY SAID
Lee – who has 10 goals to his name this season – said when assessing Wrexham’s efforts in an uncharacteristically poor performance from talismanic figures across the pitch: “There were too many of us under par today. That happens sometimes. We take responsibility for that ourselves. My set pieces were crap, for a start. Mulls (Mullin) also misses a penalty. It can’t always be your day. But we will learn from this. Training will be buzzing this week, it always is after a defeat. Every time we have lost a game there has always been a response. After the 5-0 drubbing at Stockport, we went 11 unbeaten. Don’t doubt the character in that dressing room. When we lose, we want to put it right straight away. Roll on Morecambe.”

WHAT NEXT?
Wrexham have dropped to fourth in the League Two table, but are only two points behind second-placed Mansfield and will be back on home soil next weekend when playing host to Morecambe.
