Ryan Reynolds cries tears of joy as he posts emotional 'ride of our lives' message after seeing Wrexham emphatically seal promotion to League One

The Wrexham co-owner revealed he cried "tears of joy" after witnessing his side secure promotion to League One this afternoon. The Red Dragons booked their place in the third tier of English football thanks to an emphatic 6-0 win against Forest Green Rovers.

He wrote on social media: "A few years ago, if you told me I would be crying tears of joy over a football match taking place in North Wales, you would be Rob McElhenney. Congrats to Wrexham and to my co-chairman in crime. Double up the town! This is the ride of our lives."

It is the first time in Wrexham's 159-year history that the club have achieved back-to-back promotions, after only returning to the English Football League this season. They currently sit four points away from Stockport County in first place - and will now set their sights on securing the League Two trophy.

While major celebrations are on the cards this weekend, Wrexham still have two games to play before the end of the 2023-24 campaign. They can still secure the League Two title and will undoubtedly try their hardest to do so. Crewe Alexandra is their next fixture on April 20, ahead of the final game against Stockport - which could potentially decide who finishes in first place.
