The Red Dragons have enjoyed back-to-back promotions, lifting them out of the National League and into the third tier of English football. Hollywood co-owners have bankrolled that meteoric rise, with every headline-making moment being captured by the ‘Welcome to Wrexham’ documentary cameras.

There was more drama for A-list guests to enjoy at the start of a new season, as Phil Parkinson’s side claimed a 3-2 victory over Wycombe at SToK Racecourse, and McElhenney is daring to dream big once again. He told when asked what can be achieved over the next nine months: “What can we hope for? To win. Win and get promoted. That’s what you can hope for. Is that going to happen? Don’t know, that’s why we’ve got to win games.”

McElhenney is a regular at Wrexham games, alongside fellow co-chairman Reynolds, and he is already planning a return to North Wales after heading back to the States to start writing the next series of ‘It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia’. He said when asked when he will attend another game: “I’ll be back here some time in the fall.”
WHAT NEXT FOR WREXHAM?
With a home win under their belt, Wrexham will now head out on the road for a couple of testing away dates. The first of those will see them face Sheffield United in the Carabao Cup first round, before then heading to Bolton for a meeting with fellow promotion hopefuls.
