Brian Barry-Murphy spoke to the press to preview Tuesday’s Carabao Cup Round Four fixture against Wrexham AFC.
“By nature, this is a tie where the whole Club is really excited,” Brian began. “From the first round, our intention was to try and win all the games to give us a chance to encounter a tie which we wouldn’t expect.
“We’re going to take not as many fans as we expected, because of the limited number of tickets, but still a huge swell of support to go and compete against a team from the same country. It’s very exciting.”
Wrexham have achieved three consecutive promotions in recent seasons, with Brian commenting on our Cup opponents.
“I have admiration for what Phil [Parkinson] has done. To achieve as many promotions as he has is an incredible achievement.
“They’re obviously doing things their own way. What I’ve seen from them clearly already is they have an experienced team, full of players who’ve been there, done it at that level, if not higher, and they’ve heavily invested in that.
“Our squad is totally different. We have Callum Robinson and Calum Chambers, and players who have played at a higher level, but our squad, we believe, is very capable of competing with teams from a Championship level.
“Now we get the chance to go on Tuesday and show that, and that’s what our intentions will be.”
