Wrexham’s 15-year non-league exodus was ended in record-breaking fashion last season as they topped the National League with an all-time high 111 points.
It took an epic battle for Phil Parkinson’s side to edge out Notts for the solitary automatic promotion spot.

Wrexham host Newport County in their first Welsh derby of the season and first league meeting for a decade on 23 December.
