Dean Saunders has been in charge of Wrexham almost two years

Wrexham eased the pressure on under-fire boss Dean Saunders as the Welsh team beat struggling Bath City 2-0.

Striker Andy Morrell headed Wrexham into a 28th-minute lead as he pounced on a Curtis Obeng ball at Twerton Park.

Christian Smith went close for Wrexham with two first-half headers but he did extend the lead just before the hour.

Smith darted into the box to head Dean Keates' cross home and secure Wrexham's first victory in five games to leapfrog Bath who are now without a win in four.
