Wrexham promoted to League Two and win the National League title after beating Boreham Wood



Updated


Today could be the day Wrexham finally return to the EFL after a 15-year absence.

They host Boreham Wood at 6.30pm, live on BT Sport, and a win will secure promotion to League Two.

It's a sell out at the Racecourse with both of their owners, Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, expected to be in attendance.

They will be promoted earlier on Saturday if Notts County lose at bottom club Maidstone.



Will be brilliant for Welsh football to have four teams in the EFL. Good luck to them

good luck to them, wonder if their owners have any mates who'd like a bigger club

Let's hope so - people can then stop banging on about Wrexham. I'm fed up with all the hype for this Holywood plaything club.

Yeah same here, I’m jealous of all the good vibes the celebrity owners have given Wrexham

We are jealous. As it seems they treating a club like a fan base business not as customers

I am glad i am not the only one one who feels like that. I want to see them go up but the way BBC are going on about it is beyond. Notts County were the oldest club in the League and have had a superb season but they are hardly mentioned. If I was a Notts County fan i would be kicking my tv in.

Good luck to them, I hope they smash it and work their way up the league's

Have to feel for notts co after the season they have had and wont finish champions. Or very unlikely too anyway

you'll be lucky. It's just gonna get worse if they go up. Season 3 of that show will be made.

They will hype up the hollywood. Half RobsonnKanu has already offered to play for free in Leafue 2

If they didn't have American owners it wouldn't be all over the news all the time

You think it's because they're American? Which one is not.

Wrexham kick off in about half an hour.

Notts County won 5-2, so they need to win to secure promotion tonight.


Wrexham: 107 points

Notts County: 106 points

1-1 after 15 minutes

Better football than Cardiff

Wrexham promoted to League Two and win the National League title after beating Boreham Wood

And their owners were actually there !!!

Won't be a welcome in Newport when they play there next season all the county fans I know hate them.

The higher up they go the owners will realise the reality of owning a football club is not so easy after all. Easy to spend some cash and win the National league as no other teams have funds. Fair play to them tho they currently have massive media coverage.

Amazing Owners / Well done to you All

Is there ever a welcome in Newport?

Spot on - we will see if the owners are amazing as Annis says they are if and when they get to Division 1 and their plaything gets a lot more expensive. My forecast is it will all end in tears. If Wrexham had all this money pumped in by a wealthy British businessman, Wrexham winning the Nationsl League would have hardly caused a ripple in the media - it is only because of the Holywood connection that has caused all this fuss. Fingers crossed Notts County go up via the play offs.

Good Luck to them .

Read a few comments like this and to be honest it sounds a bit like sour grapes and envy.

Their club is on the way up, and ours in on the way down - even if we don't go down, doesn't change the fact we're on a downwards trajectory with our ownership.

You can't tell me it's unrealistic they get to the Championship under these two brilliant owners when the likes of Burton, Wycombe, even Wigan who haven't got a pot to piss in have been promoted from League One in recent years.

I say good luck to them and I'm pleased for them.


Agree about Notts County though - and Ryan Reynolds said last night they're "all rooting for Notts County".

I reiterate my point if there was not the Holywood connection, there would not be this blanket coverage and it would not make the news and be considered an amazing achievement. It is another Salford and will eventually wither on the vine.

Except of course Wrexham are a far bigger club than Salford and have a far bigger fan base. Salford never averaged over 3,000 in any of the last 5 seasons while Wrexham have averaged 10,000 for the last two seasons. Even before the Americans arrived when Wrexham were mod table they still averaged just under 5,000.

Good luck to them next season. Another Welsh team in the EFL can only be good for Wales.
