Wrexham fans have hailed the performance of George Dobson following the Championship clash against Derby County.
Wrexham welcomed Derby County to the Racecourse on Saturday afternoon, looking to build on their recent run of momentum.
In their last Championship outing, Wrexham beat Norwich City 3-2 before then beating Reading in the Carabao Cup in midweek.
But John Eustace’s Derby County proved as stubborn as expected, putting up a very good fight in North Wales and making it a very difficult afternoon for Phil Parkinson’s side.

Wrexham held at home by Derby County in 1-1 draw
Wrexham looked like the better team on the whole on Saturday, and they eventually took a deserved lead with Lewis O’Brien heading home his second Championship goal of the season midway through the first half.
Parkinson’s side kept up the pressure, but were soon undone by a stunning Ben Brereton Diaz goal in the 72nd minute, which eventually saw the game end 1-1.
George Dobson was on fire for Wrexham vs Derby County
Dobson, 27, has now played in all seven of Wrexham’s Championship games so far this season, and fans have made it clear that they think he’s really upped his game since promotion to the Championship.
“Dobson growing into this league,” said one Wrexham supporter online. “Swear Dobson has been one of our best players this season,” added another.
The midfielder featured 42 times in League One last season and he’s certainly stepped up to the plate this time round. One fan added: “My ‘formerly League One’ player of the season so far.”
“Dobson is a real gem,” said another Wrexham fan, as this supporter wrote: “Dobson come back a completely new player over the summer. One of the first names on the team sheet now for me.”
Wrexham return to action against Leicester City on Tuesday night.
