The success story of Ryan Reynolds’ Wrexham AFC is one for the ages. The club in the shadows of English soccer is steadily improving game by game. After 37 matches, the club leads the National League with 91 points. But, they lost the advantage on top after having a seven-point lead. Notts County lost their match against Dag and Red but later on, won a match against Dorking Wanderers to close the gap. Despite the slip-up, Wrexham fans are optimistic about the current scenario, and the next question on everybody’s minds is, will Wrexham get promoted?

With nine more crucial games to go, fans are excited at the potential promotion. Therefore, the mood around the club is at an all-time high. Moreover, with only two promotion spots for teams to get to EFL League Two, fans remain hopeful of getting the team up to the Championship soon. Fans took online to voice out their opinions.
