Wrexham sack Kevin Wilkin

Following yesterday's defeat to North Ferriby United in the final of the FA Trophy, Wrexham take the decision to sack manager Kevin Wilkin.

Football Conference side Wrexham have parted company with manager Kevin Wilkin.

The 47-year-old has lost his job in the wake of yesterday's defeat on penalties to Conference North outfit North Ferriby United in the final of the FA Trophy at Wembley.

A statement on the club's official website read: "Everyone at the club would like to thank Kevin for his endeavours during his time at the Wrexham FC, in particular reaching both the FA Trophy Final and the third round of the FA Cup this season and his focus on developing links with the community.

"This was an incredibly difficult decision but despite our cup successes our main priority is promotion back to the Football League and we have not made the progress expected towards that aim. We have therefore made the difficult decision that a change is needed."

It has been confirmed that Carl Darlington and Gary Mills will take charge of the team for the time being.
