    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Phil Parkinson’s side are, with one game left to take in this season, readying themselves for life in the Championship - having been a National League outfit when McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds completed their stunning takeover of the club in 2021.

  • DID YOU KNOW?

    A meteoric rise has been enjoyed in North Wales, with doubters being silenced in style. A loyal fanbase, alongside the friends and families of Hollywood co-owners, could not have imagined that such rapid progress would be made.

  • WHAT KAITLIN OLSON SAID

    Olson has, however, pointed out that her partner always dared to dream big. She has posted on social media: “Absolutely unbelievable! (Except @robmcelhenney always believed…) Congratulations to @wrexham_afc and the entire Wrexham community on making history with back to back TO BACK promotions!!! There’s not a club in the world that deserves it more. #upthetown”

  • WHAT NEXT?

    The Red Dragons confirmed their latest promotion, which has carried them out of League One, with a 3-0 victory at home to Charlton. Wild scenes of celebration were sparked at SToK Racecourse, with McElhenney and Reynolds on hand to savour another emotional afternoon that has delivered more drama for the club’s ‘Welcome to Wrexham’ documentary.
