Wrexham Fans Praise Reynolds, McElhenney for Community Support in New Series

Wrexham, Wales — Wrexham football fans are showing their support for owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney after noticing a focus on local businesses in the latest season of their documentary series, Welcome to Wrexham.
This season has been historic for the club, as they achieved three consecutive promotions. Despite facing challenges during the 2024/25 League One campaign, the team’s performance improved significantly in the second half.
Along with the team’s success, the documentary continues to showcase Reynolds and McElhenney’s dedication beyond the pitch. Many fans have praised the duo for their contributions to the local community, which include supporting Wrexham’s women’s team and promoting small businesses.
Social media erupted with positive feedback as fans recognized the positive impact the owners have made. One supporter tweeted, “Great to see Wrexham FX showing some local businesses in the new season. The development of the town is so important and great to see some success stories off the pitch.”
Another fan remarked, “R+R are not just giving money… They are supporting a whole community.” Even a Cardiff City fan expressed admiration for the Wrexham owners, stating, “The work they are putting into the whole community is absolutely unreal. Best owners in world football.”
When Reynolds and McElhenney took over Wrexham, their influence was unexpected but has been overwhelmingly positive. As the town thrives, the impact of their ownership extends well beyond just football.
Ker, a local supporter, mentioned the importance of investing in the club for community growth, stating, “If you spend $2 million on a football club, and you’re able to grow that football club and build it, it reaches so much further in a way, and it becomes a catalyst.”
The visible progress in Wrexham suggests that the owners genuinely care about their community, and their commitment does not show signs of slowing down.
