The Vanarama National League title sealed the automatic promotion spot for the Red Dragons. Recently, one of the Twitter handles posted all the teams Wrexham will fight against in League Two, asking where the club finish. Enthusiastic fans soon started predicting the outcome of the next season.

“Top of the whole fu**ing lot,” one fan responded. Others soon followed suit with their predictions. Most of the fans are hoping for the club to finish in the top three. However, some realistic fans think the club will need to upgrade the squad to be in contention for promotion. Many fans predict the Red Dragons will finish in the top three due to the three automatic qualification spots.

The playoffs will decide the remaining promotion spot. The clubs finishing fourth to seventh will play playoff semifinals and final to determine the remaining spot. Wrexham will definitely look to finish in the top seven, but realistically they will hope to stay up. We can see the rivalry between Notts County and the Red Dragons continues next season.

However, Wrexham will reignite another rivalry in the upcoming season. Grimsby Town, the club that knocked them out of promotion playoffs last season, are also in League Two. Ryan Reynolds’ club will also face Salford City, the club owned by the famous Manchester United Class of 92 members. Meanwhile, the recent odds have made the Welsh club favorites for another promotion.
