Reviews

The Football Gazette wrote about Ascroft:

Wrexham are not going to miss Gunson, their goalgetting left winger, so very much if John Herbert Ascroft repeats the delightful form he displayed against Stockport County a week ago, for apart from scoring this youngster was a real live wire in all he did. He played with the Bangor City club last season and there attracted quite a lot of attention, but did not wish to go far from North Wales. Wrexham have quite a good opinion of him.
