PRICKLY or what? Denis Smith's reaction to Post Sport publishing the names of the players he had released form Wrexham was tad tetchy.

"I'm not happy about that," he seethed. "I wanted the players being released to have some time to play with to tell people close to them, like their families, before it was splashed all over the place."

In fact, Denis, they had so much time they even told their mates in the Press they had been released and, horror of horrors, we did our jobs and published it.

But there's no need to be so upset at Wrexham now they re-signed a reformed Danny Williams this week, adding some style and steel to midfield.

It's a ray of good news for the cash-starved club, and now Smith is targeting a couple more impressive signings and hoping players agree to new deals.
