A previously down-on-its-luck Welsh soccer club thrust into the global spotlight because of its A-list owners was celebrating on Saturday after Wrexham secured promotion to the fourth tier of the English game.
Ryan Reynolds held his head in his hands. Rob McElhenney leaned forward, took a deep breath and was soon wiping tears from his eyes.
Reynolds and McElhenney embraced in the directors' box when the fulltime whistle sounded and, before long, were holding up a flag with the words:"Wrexham champions 2022-23." "One thing that is running through my head over and over again," Reynolds said, looking around at Wrexham's jubilant players and fans,"is that people said at the beginning, 'Why Wrexham, why Wrexham?' This is exactly why Wrexham."
It is Wrexham's first league title at any level since the old Division Three — then the third tier in the English game — in 1977, and the team has done it in style, collecting a record 110 points so far and winning 34 of its 45 games. Since their unlikely takeover, Reynolds and McElhenney have used their large Twitter followings to promote the club and brought in sponsors such as TikTok, Aviation Gin and Expedia, global brands that typically have no place at this level of the game.
