Jack Muldoon’s fine first-half header proved sufficient to decide the contest in favour of the Sulphurites.
The League Two outfit headed into the tie as big underdogs, with Wrexham – owned by big spending Hollywood celebrities Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney – currently flying high in League One and eyeing a third promotion in as many seasons.
The Sulphurites will face non-league Gainsborough Trinity FC in the second round at The Exercise Stadium, on the weekend of November 30.
We sent our photographer Gerard Binks down to Wetherby Road to capture the fans excitement ahead of the game...
