Dave Ridler
| Date of birth | 12 March 1976 |
| Place of birth | Liverpool |
| Nationality | English |
| Weight | 77 kg |
| Height | 1.85 m |
| Position | Defender |
This reliable and unhurried defender performed well both at full back and as a partner to Brian Carey in the centre of the Wrexham defence last season. Unfortunately he missed some games through suspension and this is an area where he needs to show some improvement. David had become an important member of the Robins' back line in recent seasons. He joined Wrexham from Merseyside Sunday League side, Rockys.
