Wrexham found final weekend motivation by showing they were not distracted by parties and were very much still focused on points.

Phil Parkinson's side beat Lincoln City on the final day, finishing the season as League One promotion-winners in second behind champions Birmingham City.

Blues stormed to the title earning a stunning 111 points, the best total ever in an EFL season and equalling the English system's professional record set by Parkinson's side when they jumped from the National League in 2023.

Wrexham were 19 points behind Chris Davies' side in the final table, but set themselves apart in history by earning an unprecedented third straight promotion with a 3-0 win over Charlton last week.

However, they were still keen to finish on a high by reaching 92 points - an average two per game - with defender Ryan Longman saying: "We finished the season ten games unbeaten and to get through the 90-point barrier.

"All the lads wanted it because it's just a nice achievement."

Manager Parkinson added: "We wanted to finish in a professional manner; the perception of the group celebrating last week, jetting out to Vegas this week, but in between that we wanted to finish the season well and 92 points in 46 games, I'm really pleased with that."
