VIEWS FROM THE DRESSING ROOM
Wrexham player-manager Andy Morrell told BBC Radio Wales:
"I think the crowd and the people expect you to win now. That's the difference from ten games in. They expect us to win and beat a team like that and play attractive football.
"They [Barrow] wasted time in the first half, slowing the game down and it's really difficult to get the high tempo game we're good at.
"We had chances to put it away again and haven't taken them. We scored at the right times today. It was fairly comfortable but it could have been easier."
Barrow manager Dave Bayliss told BBC Radio Cumbria:
"I'm disappointed because we can play better than that.
"We can fight a lot harder than that. They're a good side, but I'm really disappointed.
"We wanted to come here in front of a big crowd, a nice stadium and give ourselves a chance.
"You can't switch off in the game and you have to be alert."
