– I have no words, co-owner Rob McElhenney signs X.
The Welsh secured promotion after winning 6-0 over Forest Green Rovers. The club’s top scorer Paul Mullin was among those who were central, as he scored two goals in the decisive match.
As is well known, the club is owned by Hollywood actors Rob McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds, and one must be able to call it a success story so far. In the first season, the promotion dream ended completely on the eve of the season in the playoff games. But since then there have been two straight promotions, where they did it in a more comfortable way this time.
First time in 19 years
It means that they are steadily approaching the really good company in English football. Wrexham could face the likes of Wigan, Blackpool and Bolton next season.
It is the first time since 2005 that the red shirts are at level three in the English league system.
New season of the hit series
Wrexham keep pace with Stockport County, who are already promoted. Mansfield Town are best placed to reach the last place which ensures direct promotion to League One.
The team has become known to many through the TV series “Welcome to Wrexham”, which is shown, among other things, on Disney Plus.
It has already been announced that the current season will also be documented and will form a new season of the series.
Still, not everything is necessarily rosy at the “Hollywood club”. They owe the owners around £9 million, the club recently stated. This corresponds to just over NOK 120 million.
In March, the club presented its accounts for the budget year that ended in June 2023. There it emerged that the club’s turnover had increased by 75 percent to around £10.5 million from £6 million, but that the deficit at the same time grew from £2.9 million to £5 .1 million pounds.
– The club is not under any immediate pressure to repay the loans at the expense of the progress we want to achieve, wrote Wrexham.
