Wrexham goal machine Paul Mullin misses out on National League Player of the Season award despite delighting Ryan Reynolds & Rob McElhenney with 47 strikes

  • Striker has been a revelation in North Wales
  • Led charge towards the Football League
  • Notts County star Langstaff lands top prize

WHAT HAPPENED? The prolific Dragons frontman hit 47 goals across all competitions during a memorable campaign at the Racecourse Ground, much to the delight of club co-owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney. After firing Wrexham back into the Football League, with 38 of his efforts coming in games that had points on the line, Mullin has been enjoying an all-expenses-paid trip to Las Vegas. Plaudits continue to rain down on him, as he pushes for a call-up to the senior Wales squad, but he has been pipped to a notable individual prize by Notts County talisman Macaulay Langstaff.

WHAT THEY SAID: Announcing their end of season awards, the National League said on the division’s official website: “Macaulay Langstaff vs Paul Mullin was a brilliant sub-plot and as the two teams piled on the points, these two pushed each other when it came to goals. Langstaff’s incredible 42 goals saw him break the record for the most scored in a single campaign since the league was rebranded in 2015. With five weeks of the season to run, he also became his club’s top league goalscorer in a season - and said it means ‘more than any other record’ to him.”

THE BIGGER PICTURE: While Mullin missed out on the top player gong, he has been named in the National League Team of the Season alongside colleagues Ben Tozer and Elliot Lee. Dragons boss Phil Parkinson has also been named Manager of the Season after masterminding a promotion push.
