Wrexham Manager Phil Parkinson Commends Groundstaff Efforts

Wrexham manager Phil Parkinson specifically acknowledged groundsman Paul Challoner and his team following the club’s 3-0 home victory against Exeter City, a result that elevated them to second place in League One. Max Cleworth, Ollie Palmer, and Ollie Rathbone were the goal scorers in a match where Parkinson’s squad extended their undefeated streak at the Stok Racecourse for the current season. The Wrexham groundstaff faced significant challenges to ensure the match could proceed, following substantial snowfall earlier in the week and the subsequent arrival of Storm Bert. Parkinson stated, “Man of the match today was Chall the groundsman for me.” He elaborated on their efforts, adding, “The rain and snow we’ve had which was on the pitch – enormous credit to Chall and his team to get it in that good condition.“They did brilliantly and that just doesn’t happen – he’s been working tirelessly to get that right and we’ve got to thank Chall and his staff today.”
