Wrexham football club. The north Wales based outfit, now stars of the new Hulu hit series, Welcome to Wrexham. After a recent acquisition by American movie men Rob McElhanney and Ryan Reynolds. Who embark on an adventure in British sports as they look to build their brand across the pond. Saving the red dragons from the depth of despair, beginning by buying back their Racecourse home.
At the time of writing. The journey has not been as joyful as the new energetic owners would have hoped. Their activities causing confrontation in the dressing room, as shown on the documentary. Following a surprise filming of an advert during a training session. Leading up to the team’s final run in of fixtures. Leaving the side sliding down into second. Despite substantial spending, which was invested with promotion a top priority. Ending in even more anger after Wrexham were beaten in the play offs. Grimsby getting through to the next round. Edging a nine-goal affair. Disappointment didn’t end there either. Wrexham went on to lose their FA Trophy final fixture at Wembley. Deservedly so, after disrespecting the British national anthem before kick-off. Supporters booing the song from the stands. This time tasting defeat by Bromley, who scored on sixty-four minutes. A single goal sending supporters of the Welsh side back bamboozled. Having seen their team come close to taking the lead twice.
However, the club couldn’t say out of controversy for too long. Their latest drama being dealt to the movie men by striker Paul Mullin. Who revealed his latest football boots on social media. Sparking a political problem for the club, leading to a statement having to be sent out. Which stated the boots will not be permitted to be worn by the Liverpool born forward. Having not been told of the players plans to use them. Wanting to be the centre of attention, the costly attacker created a pair of boots with an offensive phrase embedded on them. The photo taken at the Racecourse ground forcing the people in charge to confirm their political position. Assuring supporters, they have a neutral stance on matters involving their government. An internal investigation underway on further action as a consequence which may be applied for the antics. Proving to be more lethal off the pitch than on it this season.
