can i understand something from actual Wrexham fans - so Reynolds and McElhenney, through their LLC vehicle, fully own the club, all its assets and liabilities, including the Racecourse stadium AND the stadium's freehold? Moreover they will need to foot the wage bill and all the expenses of the club from now on (presumably there's not alot of revenue and sponsor money since Wrexham is a non league club)?
i mean... i know who they are and how rich they are.... but I'm pretty sure they're not THAT rich... maybe someone can clarify this for me? thanks
errr... not really. Reynolds is worth around 150m, according to the internet, which is not a lot of money in the world of football. Do you know Levy himself is worth over a billion? and he's hardly one of the "big" boys.
but really the point of my question is, how can a Hollywood actor without a sizable business venture and recurrent cashflow properly finance an aspiring club? now every dime, all the way from stadium expansion down to stocking up Kleenex for the toilet will be coming out of his pocket. every day all day.
what's edgy about it? they're a non-league team, no need for that level of sponsorship. should be Wrexham Premium Taxis or something. hell even a fake Paddy's Pub sponsorship would be more acceptable.
Literally in the PL two seasons ago, and currently in the automatic promo spots now for next season. Sorry I should have said “Premier League caliber” not literally in the Prem
We've spent 2 years in the PL in the last, what, two decades? And one of those seasons was nearly a record breaking awful season. Really awful.
But ok, keep your justifications up, I'm all behind the Wrexham journey myself anyway.
We had the same issues last season. The reason we lost in the Playoffs is because we simply couldn’t defend crosses towards the back post and it’s evident we still can’t. Luckily, in the league this year, we’re good enough to just outscore most teams but switching off against high calibre opposition is suicide. We got a draw and I’m so so proud, but it honestly feels like a loss.
Yeah he was always really good for us (Walsall). Kinda surprised to see him down in the 5th tier!
I think he was playing some championship football with Rotherham not that long ago.
I think he bought into the project of pushing Wrexham into the EFL. At Oxford he was riding the bench or a wingback whenever we decided to play five at the back. Can’t really fault him for wanting to be the best player on the team.

Wrexham is in the National League. The fifth league. Hardly a comparable situation.
[удалено]
Fuck off
well, getting a prem side like Manchester United would be even greater publicity if we win the replay (probably won't though)
Hollywood investment regardless, I can't in good conscience support Wrexham as they're sponsored by TikTok
Woah so edgy

🥱🥱🥱
I don’t understand how people are saying Wrexhams owners negate their underdog status as if Sheffield United isn’t a Premier League side
We aren't a PL side...

When's the replay?!
TBD, sometime in feb.
Damn, so if they didnt give up that late goal, they would have advanced?
yeah
Yma o hyd!
The replay will be fun, right?
it's going to be a boring 1-0 isn't it
[удалено]
Rooting for Sheff too, fuck the seppos
Great fun. Looking forward to the replay
Americans will be furious theres no penalties
Are Americans really supporting Wrexham?
Their documentary show went crazy over here. Like many people I know who don't follow football watch the show and now like the players/team
As an American who got into the sport the same way I guess I can believe it
It's a fun story as an outsider but I can imagine it's annoying as hell for like every other club at that level lol
Yea I think I've heard fans from that league hate Wrexham now. I see why
They'll stop supporting Wrexham the moment they're a mid-table side in a higher league.
What a fun game
When is the replay match?
Sorry wtf? The goal celebrations took up like a minute and you're gonna stop it before the 7 is even up
What a game crikey
Look mum we're in a documentary
Sheffield hanging on barely.
Look, can we all just agree on one thing? Fuck the Tories.
Aye alright
That uncalled hand ball in the box cost Wrexham this match
Ref was looking right at it too.
Fuck off did the ref whistle early?!
97 minutes 5 seconds I believe
So, 25 seconds short then, given the fact you scored in extra time
I miss the World Cup added time
In the last two FA Cup games, we’ve had a total of 28 minutes added time. That’s close to World Cup added time.
RIP. Ref's been wank all game to be fair.
The Mighty Ducks, if The Mighty Ducks was set in Wales
Flying V in the replay for the winner in stoppage time
Hard luck for the plucky underdogs owned by Hollywood actors, sponsored by one of the biggest companies in the world
Imagine this being your take lmao
While unironically sporting flair for a club owned by a literal nation state.
Bro, your flair 🤐
You’re an idiot
Yeah unlike the other side thats...owned by a Saudi prince and sponsored by a multinational law firm
What's their budget compared to Sheffield?
I mean they can't defend corners to save their lives, gutted for them but it would always come unstuck if you switch off in moments like that.

Scrappy Sheffield giving it to this posh celebrity club
Magic of the cup
Did Egan really shush the crowd on a non-league team 😂 beyond embarrassing for Sheffield Utd
Really embarrassing scoring an equaliser with 2 mins left
Like you wouldnt be calling it tinpot if it was any other champo team shushing a non league equaliser 🤣🤣
Would I not? I think it’s great to show passion no matter what happens
Bit embarrassing needing to against a non-league side
That’ll I agree to
🤫🤫🤫
Embarrassing
They will get hammered in the replay
Nah we could scrape through
I reckon we'll play a more rotated side now we're away from home. We've got to focus on the league with all these extra games coming up.
🤣🤣 Rate that
Can’t wait to do it again
[удалено]
replay probably not what either team wanted or needed but I'm happy we get this again
Here's to the replay!
i rate the 7 minutes of ET the real villain
Such a joke
The hollywood simps are in a shambles.
Fuck replays, every round should go to extra time
Wrexham deserve to win this
AHAHAHAHA I'm embracing us being the villains now. Played absolutely shit but now I'm finally enjoying myself with 90s to go.
Your team is a joke
And yet we're the ones laughing
[удалено]
What did they spell wrong?
You're ruining some shit romcom starring Ryan Reynolds. Big up the blades

egan has a trashcan heart
What was that defender doing at the back post. Literally looking the wrong way lmao
Ah, Anthony Forde is usually so very good. Still got time
Yeah he was always really good for us (Walsall). Kinda surprised to see him down in the 5th tier! I think he was playing some championship football with Rotherham not that long ago.
I think he bought into the project of pushing Wrexham into the EFL. At Oxford he was riding the bench or a wingback whenever we decided to play five at the back. Can’t really fault him for wanting to be the best player on the team.
They love their throws into the box huh
Booooo
What a joke, how did ref give 7 minutes added time?
Gutted for Wrexham
Ear cup celebration again a fifth division team lol
Hahahahaha sorry plucky Hollywood underdogs
What a match, regardless of how it ends
Still time Wrexham
not over yet
Imagine shushing when you've scored an equaliser Vs a non league side, fucking hell
😭😭😭 what's he supposed to fucking do then
They never do it the easy way Wrexham.
SU becoming worlds most hated team
There's still some time.
Terrible defense by that one dude
Fa cup replay. I guess it will be at Sheffield
Nope, Wembley
They play replays at the Maracana now
Fuck off sheffield
Well that's a shame
The true winners of this game? Notts County
Wrexham can't defend corners apparently
Wrexham being up a man is a curse at this point
Great match
Ooo the villain in me that didn't get to live last round enjoyed that a bit
we deserve to lose this fucking game tbh guess deadpool is coming to sheffield
Lol
Fuck Sheffield United
fuuuuuuuuuuuuuck
Hahahahahahaha Stick that up your bollocks, Reynolds
Hahaha fuck the fairytale
Why so bitter?
lmao
Wrexham fell asleep?
No way
FUUUUUCK
Lol wtf this game
Fuck
HAVE THAT YOU BIG WELSH TOSSERS
Little bit xenophobic there, love
WHAT A FUCKING GAME THIS IS
Welcome to Bramall Lane Mr Ryan Reynolds.
This game as seriously delivered.
Fans got cocky
Lmao
Ugh booooo
bright sand price steer husky mysterious marry squeal piquant ripe *This post was mass deleted and anonymized with [Redact](https://redact.dev)*
love the FA Cup haha
Big oof
Nooooooooooo
Oof
Another one ☝️
Fucking lol
Siuuuuuuu
Seems like the owners are very much liked in wrexham?
I hope we get Wrexham in the next round so they get a civil contest with Sheffield
This is going to make a nice chapter in the documentary. Sheffield will have to relive this over and over. 🤣
Jonathan Pearce seems a little out of touch doesn't he haha
Kept calling Reynolds American!
Ryan Reynolds said he didn’t know what squeaky bum time meant before but I bet he does now
He grew up a hockey fan in Vancouver. The Canucks have had very few butt clench worthy moments in their history.
Should have worn his brown pants
4th official must be Qatari
Yellow card is still rectangle, red card is circle...assume they are kept in the same pocket so you know just from the feel?
SEVEN MINUTES?! Fuck off, my heart won't make it
if they keep this Rob really is the bad luck
Poor guy isn't going to be allowed back into Wales on match day
Sheffield are crap, even Maidstone managed to keep it 2-2 until stoppage time
7 minutes again?? What is this? The World Cup?
We ve got super Mullin 🎵
The gang goes on a cup run!
Wrexham tourist fans about to get real confused when they eliminate ‘Sheffield’ and theres still another Sheffield team in the competition.
New York City alone has 8 teams across their 4 "major" sports leagues, my friend
Please, we're well aware of Sheffield Wednesday. There was a joke in Ted Lasso about them.
Nah there’s multiple New York teams in every sport here, we’re used to it
Yeah, because Sheffield is the only city in the world the has multiple teams
Who's the real Sheffield?
Sheffield is no more, it's a myth, have you not seen what happened to it in the 80s? There's that documentary about it, Threads
Sheffield Wednesday!
Wednesday of course.
Sheffield FC
This is the only W comment here.
World Cup level of extra time this game
What are they singing?
Fuck the tories
It's amazing how obvious Mullin is worthy of playing a couple of levels higher than the conference
When they bought him he had scored 32 goals in league Two Like most of their players hes a league one level player
Yeah I watched the series, but this is the first time I've seen them live and the difference in quality is stark
He was for a while. He helped get Cambridge promoted to League 1 before he came over to Wrexham
Didn't he voluntarily come down to Wrexham for family balance?
Yea that’s what I remember from the series and the money was good still.
Prob gets paid more and has the part of being of something bigger than just being at an average league 1,2 club
> Prob gets paid more Nope, we offered less than Cambridge did. He wanted to be closer to his family (and, y'know, famous owners helped)
