Ryan Reynolds is feeling “completely gutted” after Wrexham’s dream of a Championship play-off spot slipped away. With hopes high on the final day, Wrexham drew 2-2 with Middlesbrough, missing the coveted play-offs by just two points. Despite the heartache, Reynolds took to social media, expressing pride in the team’s progress, especially given it’s only their first season in the Championship after climbing up from League One.
The match was a rollercoaster, with Middlesbrough taking an early lead, only for Josh Windass to level it up with a stunning free-kick. A goal by Sam Smith just before halftime had fans hopeful, but David Strelec’s equaliser dashed those hopes, leaving Wrexham to settle for a draw.
Reflecting on the season, Reynolds emphasised the remarkable journey Wrexham has been on, rising through the ranks since he and Rob McElhenney took ownership in February 2021. They’ve transformed the club from National League contenders to Championship fighters in just a few years—a feat to be incredibly proud of.
Though this season ends with a tinge of disappointment, the Reds aren’t backing down. Preparations for the new season are already underway, with thrilling pre-season fixtures lined up against Liverpool, Leeds United, and Sunderland in the US. These games promise plenty of excitement and a chance to further galvanise the team for another shot at promotion.
Wrexham’s journey, filled with highs, lows, and plenty of passion, continues, and fans can’t wait to see what’s next. Here’s to another thrilling chapter in this incredible football story! ⚽🔴 #WrexhamAFC #RyanReynolds #FootballPassion
