Wrexham Suffers Heaviest Loss Since Reynolds, Mac Takeover
Developing
In Short: Wrexham manager Phil Parkinson admitted the 6-0 defeat by West Ham was among the lowest points of his tenure, marking the club's heaviest league loss in 22 years.
Phil Parkinson was appointed Wrexham manager in July 2021 when the club was in the National League.
It was Wrexham's heaviest league defeat in 22 years, since losing by the same margin at Bournemouth in 2004.
The 6-goal margin surpassed the previous 5-0 loss to Stockport County in September 2023, marking a new low for the ambitious Welsh side.
