JORDAN DAVIES admits it was "special" making his comeback from a long lay-off at The Racecourse and the Wrexham midfielder still gets goosebumps when he hears supporters singing his name.

The 24-year-old, who hails from Coedpoeth, sustained a serious knee injury in the 4-1 FA Cup second round win against Farnborough on November 26.

Expected to be out of action for around three months, Davies returned to the squad for Tuesday's National League encounter with Scunthorpe United which ended in a 2-0 Reds' win.

Brought on in the 80th minute, with nearly 10,000 fans chanting 'he's one of our own', Davies was grateful for the support he received.

"Without picking and choosing, to make the return at The Racecourse is special," said Davies.

"To get 10,000 local people singing my name is special every time and it does give you goosebumps every time.

"I am grateful for that."

Leading scorer Paul Mullin won and converted two penalties either side of the break to secure another crucial win in the race for the title.

Davies had a hand in the second goal, with Iron goalkeeper Owen Foster spilling his low shot before tripping Mullin in the area.

"Mulls is a top striker and he sniffs out opportunities better than anyone I have come across," said Davies.

"He probably looked at me putting my head down and thought there's a chance.

"I am grateful for Mulls for taking the chance on the rebound, getting the penalty and putting us 2-0 up."

Wrexham weren't at their best but picking up victory is all that Davies cares about, with the second placed Reds still five points behind Notts County with two games in hand.

"Sometimes we are going to blow teams away which we have done this season, and other times it is going to be ugly," added Davies.

"Tuesday was an ugly one but it is three points, it is a clean sheet and we won by two so in the end it was comfortable.

"It all counts as three points and it doesn't matter at the end of the season."
