WREXHAM lost their grip on the FAW Premier Cup they have come to regard as their personal property as Welsh rivals Swansea City completed a cup and promotion double on an emotional night for their fans at the Vetch Field.

The Dragons, heading to League Two next season, were unable to extend their stranglehold on a competition they had won five times in seven seasons, despite going ahead through Basque striker Juan Ugarte.

But an own goal by Shaun Pejic rejuvenated the home side and it was substitute Andy Robinson who delivered the winner and sparked off amazing scenes at the final whistle.

Wrexham were forced into one change from the side beaten by Huddersfield Town on Saturday after skipper Darren Ferguson failed to overcome an ankle injury and was replaced by Wales under-21 international Mark Jones.

But there were three fresh faces in the home side's line-up following their promotion-securing win at Bury as star defenders Garry Monk and Sam Ricketts were ruled out by knocks.

In came Alan Tate and Ijah Anderson at the back, while striker Paul Connor was preferred to Lee Thorpe.

There was a party atmosphere inside the ground as Swansea fans saluted their side's League Two success and marked what was the last game to be staged at the Vetch before a move in August to the purpose-built Morfa Stadium, which will also be home to the rugby union-playing Ospreys.

Although they could not hope to compete in numerical terms, around 200 visiting fans had more to shout about in the opening exchanges when Juan Ugarte headed Andy Holt's free-kick across the face of the goal and Matt Crowell volleyed over the crossbar, after the Swans defence only partially cleared another delivery from the wing-back.

Former Racecourse favourite Lee Trundle, who had arrived for the game wearing a black dinner suit complete with velvet lapels, had the merest sniff of an opening in the 14th minute when he turned to drive a low shot just a foot wide of Ben Foster's goal but the scare failed to knock the Dragons out of their stride.

Swans' keeper Willy Gueret went down smartly to deny Ugarte in the 16th minute and three minutes later Holt rampaged from inside his own half before drilling another effort that required another save from the Frenchman.

Wrexham's pressure continued when Chris Llewellyn thumped a first-time shot inches over Gueret's goal and when the home side managed to get on the front foot, they were given short shrift by a defence marshalled well by teenager Craig Morgan.

But a set-piece was almost their undoing four minutes before the break after Shaun Pejic needlessly conceded a corner and when the ball came in from Roberto Martinez, defender Izzy Iriekpen failed to get a proper contact and the ball skewed wide.

Wrexham had another lucky break before the interval when an unmarked Paul Connor rose to meet Trundle's cross but looped his headed effort too high.

Ex-Wrexham trialist Robinson - two matches into a four-game Football League suspension - was introduced for Leon Britton from the restart and was involved as Swansea immediately threatened, although Foster was equal to a fierce effort from Connor.

The visitors' response was immediate, Llewellyn winning a corner when Gueret blocked his shot and the keeper was then well-placed to hold a Dennis Lawrence header from Holt's flag-kick before Pejic steered another header over the bar.

Anderson rescued the home side with a 55th-minute goal-line clearance as Lawrence's header for once eluded the Swan-sea keeper as the Dragons continued to dominate. The goal their enterprising play had merited finally came on the hour.

A Crowell free-kick was helped on by Morgan and Lawrence displayed great skill to pull the ball back across the face of the six-yard box where Ugarte clinically despatched it into the net.

From the resumption Foster was again called into action, going down to grasp a long-range shot from Robinson, but the home side were back on terms within eight minutes when Trundle's cross from the left was turned past his keeper by Dragons defender Pejic under pressure from Connor.

Morgan, though, squandered a superb opportunity to regain the advantage within the space of a minute when he was picked out by a Holt free-kick but was unable to direct the ball past Gueret.

And Swansea went ahead with 14 minutes remaining through Robinson, who drove an unstoppable first-time shot past Foster after Morgan had done well to block Trundle's effort on the turn.

That was the cue for Trundle to start going through his full range of flicks and tricks, much to the annoyance of the visiting supporters who regarded the former Rhyl striker as a hero during his time at the Racecourse.

With time running out, Wrexham had to take risks at the back and push forward but Gueret pulled off another fine save to thwart Llewellyn following a fine exchange between Holt and Ugarte before Tate made an unconvincing clearance when Wales under-21 international Morgan was again first to a cross from fellow central defender Lawrence.

And that was the end for the Dragons, although the £50,000 second prize and a half-share of the receipts from a gate of nearly 10,000 will provide some consolation.
