Phil Parkinson remains optimistic regarding Wrexham’s chances of securing a Championship play-off position despite a recent defeat. The Welsh club lost 2-0 to Birmingham City on Saturday, 11 April. Parkinson described the performance as blunt but stated the squad is still in the mix for a top-six finish, per Sky Sports.
Wrexham currently occupy eighth place in the Championship table after 43 matches. They sit three points behind sixth-placed Coventry City with three fixtures remaining in the regular season. The loss at St Andrew’s followed a run of three consecutive victories for the promoted side, according to The Guardian.
Birmingham City secured the win through goals in either half to bolster their own promotion aspirations. Parkinson noted that his players failed to create sufficient chances during the contest. Wrexham next face Hull City at the Racecourse Ground as they continue their pursuit of a third successive promotion, according to reports from The Athletic.
