Wrexham midfielder George Thomason hopes his side can kick on after their thrilling win over Sheffield United in the Championship.
The Red Dragons – 13th in the table and five points off the play-offs – host Preston North End on Monday before away games at Blackburn Rovers (Thursday, 1 January) and Derby County (Sunday, 4 January).
“It’s a really busy period of the season so if we can find consistent performances like that I can’t see why we can’t kick on from here,” Thomason said after a man of the match performance against Sheffield United in which he played at left-back.
“Things can start to look differently and suddenly at the back end of January you’re looking towards the end of the season and where can we finish?
“We’ve got a top group and I can’t see why we can’t kick on from here and really push on towards those play-offs.”
Wrexham battled back from 3-1 down to beat Sheffield United 5-3 in a pulsating game at the SToK Cae Ras on Friday evening.
It ended a run of five games without a win and followed a 2-1 defeat away to Welsh rivals Swansea City the previous week and Thomason was pleased with the team’s response against Sheffield United.
“We all know we’ve had a few difficult results lately and maybe the performances in general having been a little bit under par,” Thomason added.
“So we have to take that on the chin. I thought we showed real good character and resilience and put in a top performance.
“I don’t just want it to be a one-off performance. I want it to be a catalyst where we churn out these performances much more often because we’re definitely capable of it.”
