Wrexham Football have announced manager Graham Barrow has resigned as manager.

Wrexham Football Club announced then assistant manager Graham Barrow was taking up the First Team Manager position on a 2.5 year deal on December 18th 2018.

A memorable 5-1 smashing of Salford City along with a battling victory over Solihull were the high points in his brief stay, balanced with an all but dry January.

Wrexham, who are still very much in the promotion chase in the league table, are taking on Dagenham & Redbridge at home this Saturday with the usual 3pm kick off.

Wrexham Football Club said tonight in a short statement: “Wrexham Football Club can confirm that Graham Barrow has resigned from his position as First Team Manager of Wrexham AFC. Graham has been a major part of our season to date and leaves the club four points from the top of the league with fifteen games remaining.

“We would like to thank Graham for his efforts and contribution in his time at the Club and he leaves with our very best wishes.”

The Club say they make a further announcement tomorrow regarding a replacement First Team Manager, with rumours locally that ex-player Bryan Hughes is set for the position.
