Smith thought about a postponement

Wrexham manager, Denys Smith, admitted after the game that he spoke to the FA about a possible postponement of today's game.

"We did contact them to check on the rules, but had we called this match off then there was the possibility of a points deduction and a fine," said Smith.

Wrexham were forced to put out a side with just four regular first-teamers because of illness and injury. Hereford were much luckier with just Rob Purdie missing with a virus.

"We possibly lost this game on Friday when we realised what sort of team we could field.

"We are asking a lot of the kids we stuck out there today, but I won't have a go at them because I thought they did tremendously well.

"We probably should have won it, but I'm not having a go at the kids because they worked their socks off

"We shouldn't have been down at half time, but I thought I was right to change things around then, as we had to have a go at it and try to get us back into the match.

"We have dominated again in the second half and then got hit on the break."
