Wrexham's dreams of promotion to the English Football League (EFL) were hindered after their 0-0 draw with Barnet, which could have left them needing two wins to secure promotion. The match was marred by a "cheat" row involving Wrexham manager Phil Parkinson and opposing goalkeeper Laurie Walker, who had Callum McFadzean sent off in the second half for a foul on Walker. Parkinson was infuriated by the decision and challenged Walker after the game, but Walker defended the referee by saying McFadzean "came straight through and kicked [him] straight in the face." Parkinson is now facing a touchline ban for his red card, and Wrexham plans to appeal the decision. Wrexham can secure promotion by winning their next two games, but their chances hinge on their appeal against McFadzean's red card.
