Wrexham had a great run in League Two this season bagging promotion to League One. This is a big milestone for the Red Dragons returning to the upper echelon of the EFL after almost two decades. Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney‘s men have found an instant connection amongst fans thanks to their perfect fairytale role. And it seems the craze around the team has been on an all-time high after their promotion with fans across England snubbing even Tiger Woods to pick the Welsh club!

A recent survey saw 2000 English fans asked about the one sporting moment they would like to have witnessed in their life. And Wrexham’s promotion to League One ranked above Tiger Woods winning the 2019 Masters. They ranked 45 in the ranking above both Woods and Japan’s historic win over South Africa in the 2015 World Cup. Meanwhile, England’s 4-2 win over Germany at Wembley under Sir Bobby Moore was the top of the last with Andy Murray’s Wimbledon win a close second.

The ‘Its Always Sunny in Philadelphia’ star claimed, “We have a plan in place right now that would work from stand to stand so eventually you get all four sides. It’s hard to say for sure, but we think we could get between 45,000 and 55,000 people in there. The whole town could come to a game. Of course, safety concerns and all those regulations are in place for a reason, but then some things just seem hurdles for hurdles’ sake.”

Meanwhile, with the team now in League One, Wrexham will also look to make some massive improvements to their squad. Phil Parkinson’s side has already started the process with the club releasing 8 players before their pre-season tour. The team will now look to sign suitable players during the upcoming transfer window with a permanent deal for Arthur Okonkwo on top of the priority list.
