Lee eyes League One promotionConfident everyone is 'together'Praises Wrexham from top to bottomGetty ImagesWHAT HAPPENED?
While Wrexham are just one point outside the automatic promotion spots, they have won just two of their last eight League Two matches. Although their home form is the best in the division, their away form is bettered by nine other teams. However, midfielder Lee, who achieved promotion with Luton Town in 2018, believes this Wrexham squad have all the right ingredients to get promoted into the third tier of English football, especially with Ryan Reynolds' and Rob McElhenney's contribution as co-owners.

When asked what it takes to get out of League Two on the Men in Blazers podcast, he said: "It takes a strong unity from top to bottom. At Luton, it was a very well-run club; good owners, good manager, good staff, good lads and the fans are all on board together. And I've said it since day one, I truly believe we have that here [at Wrexham] if not better. From the owners to the manager, to the staff, the lads, and the fans all being on one page is so important to any success because I cannot speak highly enough of everyone around the club. All the lads in the dressing room, everyone gets on so well. We just have a laugh but we work so hard in training and I think you need the best of both. We will push each other but then have a laugh in the dressing room. You need that because when you are winning it is great but when you are losing that's when you see how much of a team you are and how together you are from top to bottom. Even recently we have lost a few games on the trot but now you really see how together we are from the owners to the staff, the players, and the fans. That's what brings you through and ultimately gets you success."

Lee, who is the Red Dragons' top scorer this season with 13, knows how to get out of this division and with his leadership and goalscoring ability, Phil Parkinson's men are certainly in with a shout of a second straight promotion. However, the Welsh team will need to improve their away form if they want to achieve that goal.
WHAT NEXT?
Fourth-placed Wrexham, who have won 12 of their 16 games at the Racecourse this season, host Accrington Stanley on Saturday, looking to leapfrog Crewe – who currently sit in the last automatic promotion spot.
