Report: Wrexham 1-0 Oldham

"It will be a great day for Welsh football," said Smith, after his side's 6-3 aggregate win over Oldham set up a Millennium Stadium date with Southend.

"I want fans of Cardiff and Swansea, people from mid Wales and all over to come along and support us.

"It's a dream to get to a final at any level, but to take a Welsh club to the Millennium is something special."

Smith's rallying call was supported by former Wales international John Cornforth, who captained Swansea to an LDV Vans Trophy win at Wembley in 1994.

"I hope as many Welsh fans as possible turn out for them, I'd like to think they'll come from Swansea and elsewhere," Cornforth told BBC Sport Wales.

"I'm delighted for Wrexham after all their troubles with administration this year, it's been an absolute nightmare for them.

I hope that somebody out there can see that this club is worth buying Denis Smith

"It's fantastic for a small club to get to a final. Walking up the steps at Wembley is a feeling I'll never forget."

Smith added that he hoped the high-profile Cup run would help encourage a buyer for Wrexham to see the club end its administration misery.

"I'm delighted for the fans, they needed the lift," he said. "Now I hope that somebody out there can see that this club is worth buying.

"Come 10 April maybe there'll be someone sat in the director's box saying 'Yes, I own this club and I'm at the Millennium Stadium'.

"We're all going to have new suits, do the job right and have a great day out - I'd forgotten what champagne tasted like!

"For now we have to concentrate on the league and avoiding relegation, but I'm sure the Cup success will help that. This is a club that is going somewhere."
