  • WHAT BOYLE SAID

    Speaking to Wrexham's YouTube channel after the win ovr Sutton, Boyle said: "It’s Saturday-Tuesday now. We play the next two Tuesdays now. Lots of away games. So it's good for the spirit. We go again back to the Racecourse on Saturday and hopefully we can get that place rocking. So there's a lot of work still to do, we know that. But that was a good result for us."
