What they're saying

"
George Thomason is targeting a fast start to the new league campaign following his and Wrexham's early struggles in the 2025-26 Championship season. Thomason joined the Red Dragons from Phil Parkinson's former club Bolton Wanderers last summer but featured just once in Wrexham's opening 10 league games after sustaining a thigh injury. "It's possibly the worst nightmare as a new signing to come in and get hit with a seven-week-ish injury," he said.
