    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    While many Wrexham fans may feel like this result was two points dropped rather than one point gained, they are now up to second in the table with nine games remaining. However, third-placed Stockport have two games in hand and are just a point behind, and Crewe are just three points back in fourth. Although it is very close, Wrexham are in the automatic promotion spots ahead of the final stretch of the season.
