Waynne Phillips says it will take "something special" for Wrexham to end the season in the Championship play-offs.
The Red Dragons sit four points adrift of the top six with just four matches left to play following back-to-back losses to Southampton and Birmingham City.
Despite their play-off destiny now being out of their own hands, former Wrexham midfielder Phillips feels that Phil Parkinson's men, along with eighth-placed Derby County, are not out of the running just yet.
"It's going to take something special to finish in the top six. Hull are there at the moment," he told BBC Radio Cymru’s Dros Frecwast.
"Wrexham, and Derby who are a point below Wrexham, will still believe that it's possible, and it is possible until it's mathematically impossible.
"It's a poor run at such an important point of the season, they've lost four of their last seven games.
"It would be really disappointing if the season just fizzled out as we've seen so many good things from Wrexham this season.
"But they should keep the faith and take it one game at a time."
Wrexham return to action at Stok Cae Ras on Saturday against a Stoke City side who have lost five consecutive away league games.
And Phillips believes the play-off picture could change once again at the weekend as Hull City host Birmingham at the same time Wrexham face the Potters.
"It's possible that the picture will change again on Saturday, Hull could lose and Wrexham could win at the Stok Cae Ras and suddenly everyone would think it's possible again," added Phillips.
