The dream journey continues for Wrexham AFC despite some strenuous hurdles. Four years ago, almost every fan could have only conceived of being in a place where they are. Placed second in League Two of the EFL, Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney’s team are close to entering the third tier of English soccer, League One. However, despite all the effort behind the success, one of their best players, Paul Mullin, finds a glitch and expects fans to back them up in away games.

Fans have been the backbone of Wrexham’s success. Their complete support was the only constant positive during the club’s fluctuations in the past. However, according to reports, they were seen trolling their team for not winning away games, which did not go well with Paul Mullin. It subsequently led the player to express his disappointment, stating, “I never want to hear them singing again is about us not winning away from home,” requesting them not to point out the negatives.

Mullin feels that such instances can demoralize the players while performing on the pitch. He also said, “What do they think that does to the players who are on the pitch representing their team? Some of the lads have been speaking about it and they don’t really like to hear that.” But the player appreciated their backing and requested to continue backing the team wherever they are.

The 29-year-old Englishman’s words were a response to the fans’ chant, ‘never winning away from home,’ citing their poor away record with seven wins in 21 games. Mullin, who has been a vital force for Wrexham, scoring 95 official goals, knows how essential fans’ support is for players to bring results.

Will Paul Mullin take Wrexham to glory?

Notably, Paul Mullin is giving his blood and sweat this year, providing 19 goals and seven assists in the league. Wrexham will get promoted if they finish third. However, they would like to seal the deal by winning the title. Trailing Stockport by 4 points with a game deficit, Ryan Reynolds’ team will hope to win all their games, including the final match against the leaders. And the forward will play a key role in scoring regularly.

Nevertheless, the challenge doesn’t seem to be easy. The league leaders have been undefeated in their last nine games and also have a superior goal difference of 41 compared to Wrexham’s 24. Nevertheless, despite some flaws, Wrexham has been a team of progress in English soccer. With the fans’ support, the team will thrive to rise to the top tier very soon.
