The bonus Wrexham's players will now be paid by Ryan Reynolds, the imminent Vegas trip and parade plans

Wrexham sealed promotion back to the Football League for the first time in 15 years with their 3-1 win over Boreham Wood on Saturday. Two spectacular goals from Paul Mullin after Elliot Lee’s equaliser sealed the win over the visitors and secured the National League title - the first trophy of the Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney era - with the celebrations only just beginning.

Since the takeover by the stars in February 2021, the club has received significant investment. The men’s playing squad has seen the likes of Mullin and Ollie Palmer make the step down from League One football for big money, while the Hollywood pair have supported the women's side’s journey to Tier 1 status and promotion to the top flight Genera Adran Premier. There are also plans to develop the Racecourse's Kop stand.

On the pitch, following the takeover, the Dragons have been knocking on the door of League Two football as well as nearly winning silverware. The club finished runners-up in the National League last season, before losing in the play-off semi-final to eventual winners Grimsby Town in a 5-4 defeat worthy of any Tinseltown script.
