DRAGONS HAVE PLENTY OF PUFF!

DAN Scarr reckons Wrexham’s squad this season carries greater strength in depth than the Plymouth side he featured in that accumulated 101 points on their way to the League One title in 2022-23!

The 29-year-old centre-back made 32 appearances as Argyle saw off significant challenges from Ipswich and Sheffield Wednesday during that incredible campaign.

But, having swapped Home Park for the Racecourse Ground in August, he now believes his new club are better equipped to sustain or improve their own current lofty position in the same division - second going into this weekend - should injuries and suspensions bite.

The Bromsgrove-born defender had to bide his own time before breaking into the first XI earlier this month when Max Cleworth suffered ankle ligament damage.

And even Paul Mullin – the plunderer of more than a century of goals during the previous three seasons – was only handed his second league start of 2024-25 last weekend when it was announced that Jack Marriott had broken his fibula.
