Wrexham Pre-Match News
Gresley will be making their trip into Wales to take on last year's FA Trophy winners Wrexham tomorrow with the words of their manager Martin Rowe ringing in their ears "I would rather lose in the right way thinking we'd had a go. It'd be better going out in a blaze of glory. Who knows what'll happen if you have a bit of lady luck behind you. You don't know what can happen on the day."
This will be the fledgling club's biggest game since they were founded and with a good following going from South Derbyshire everyone should enjoy the day.Despite wanting the Moatmen to attack their hosts tomorrow, Rowe knows they will need to keep it tight at the back, especially with right-back Mitch Hanson unavailable.
Both Jack Langston and Alex Steadman will have to sit this game out being cup-tied and John Guy is a doubt with a calf injury. Also missing tomorrow are Marc Strzyzewski and long-term absentee Danny Holmes.
Right-back Matt Roome has been recalled from a loan at Midland Alliance outfit Westfields and new signing goalkeeper Mats Morch is added to the squad.
