Thomas concerned by Wrexham form

Mickey Thomas is concerned about Wrexham's position

Mickey Thomas feels Wrexham's players cannot handle the pressure as they look to lift themselves off the bottom of the Football League.

But the Wrexham legend insists the club's board should keep faith in manager Brian Carey.

"I think some of the players are feeling the pressure from the fans' anger and disappointment," said Thomas.

"It's how you adapt and maybe that's the telling moment that they can't handle the pressure."

Thomas spoke out on the back of the Dragons' latest loss at Stockport, which has left them with five defeats out of their opening six league outings.

You have to blame the players at the moment for not doing it Mickey Thomas

"It's disappointing reading of the table when you see them at the bottom but I think you have to keep the faith in Brian Carey and his backroom staff," he said.

"Brian has made one or two additions to the squad which I thought would make them better, but at the moment results aren't going their way.

"There is immense pressure. You are in a winning related business where you have to win football games to take the pressure off you.

"This is a difficult time and this will show how good Brian is. Can they get the results turned around?"

Thomas stressed it was important to pick up a result within the next couple of games to avoid confidence being drained away.

Wrexham's only two wins this season have come against Morecambe in the league and Port Vales in the Carling Cup first round.

"There is enough quality in the squad, you just maybe have to look at the team that goes out week in week out and look at the individuals. Are they doing enough?

"I've watched Brian on the training ground and he puts a lot of effort into it, but when it gets on to the pitch it's up to the players and you have to blame the players at the moment for not doing it."
