Exciting times for Wrexham! 🎉 The club’s celebrity owners, Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, have guided Wrexham to an impressive feat—they’re currently the top Welsh team in the English Football League for the first time in 24 years! This achievement comes as the team gears up for a high-stakes clash with Cardiff City.
The path to this milestone hasn’t been smooth. The Dragons had a modest start to their Championship journey this season, sparking some concerns about manager Phil Parkinson’s future. But a crucial win against Oxford United helped squash those rumours, marking a turning point in their campaign.
Fast forward, and Wrexham find themselves ahead of Swansea in the EFL standings thanks to a mix of Cardiff’s relegation woes and Newport County’s struggles. While it might be a close call with Swansea’s recent resurgence, Wrexham’s journey from the National League to becoming Wales’ top-ranked club is no small feat.
Looking ahead, Tuesday’s showdown against Cardiff promises to be a nail-biter! With Welsh pride on the line and a spot in the Carabao Cup quarter-finals up for grabs, the Dragons are fired up to defend their newfound status.
Win or lose, Reynolds and McElhenney’s ambitions for Wrexham extend far beyond just topping the Welsh ranks. Their sights are set on the Premier League, a dream that seemed far-fetched just a few years ago. As McElhenney puts it, “Why not us? It won’t be easy, but we’re determined to do it the right way.”
So, whether you’re a local supporter or newfound fan from across the globe, keep your eyes peeled for this epic match-up. The stage is set for an epic night of football drama at the Racecourse Ground! 🏟️⚽
