Ryan Reynolds ranks Wrexham victory over Burton among 'top five' moments of his life as he sends special message to ex-Red Dragon Anthony Forde

The Red Dragons moved a step closer to secure an automatic promotion to Championship after they outclassed relegation-threatened Burton 3-0 in League One last weekend. Steven Fletcher, Sam Smith and Jack Marriott were on target for the Welsh club as they picked up crucial three points in front of their co-owner and Hollywood star Ryan Reynolds.

Reynolds, who visited SToK Racecourse after a long gap, was thoroughly entertained by watching his team in action. He has now expressed his joy by sharing photographs from the matchday on social media. The American actor also caught up with former Wrexham star Anthony Forde, who joined Burton in February this year after the Red Dragons released him.

On Instagram, the Deadpool star wrote: "I’ve had some of the best moments of my life in Wrexham. Saturday was a top 5. Spending time with @anthony_forde1 was a highlight. I love the guy with my whole heart. The reception we gave him was pure class and I miss seeing him in a @wrexham_afc shirt. Special guests, Sarah and Rob Waller came to the match… Their beautiful boy, Aiden will be a part of this place forever. And he somehow brought three points with him."

Phil Parkinson's side will be back in action in League One on Saturday as they take on Wigan Athletic in a crucial away fixture.
