Wrexham 3-2 Notts County: Drama befitting Hollywood as hosts close on League return
The on-field drama captivated Wrexham's Hollywood owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney as much as the rest of the crowd
Granted, their financial backing and all the razzmatazz that accompanied it was always going to make promotion back to the Football League seem like a reality for Wrexham after 15 long years.in a 3-2 victory over nearest rivals Notts CountyBoth teams already on 100 points going into the game? Needs work. Two teams with more than 100 goals? A bit more oomph, perhaps.
Those who descended on Monday, though, were very much here for the game being billed as the biggest in non-league history. "Excluding the birth of my children, I'm not sure I have," said Reynolds when asked if he'd ever experienced anything quite as emotionally draining as the match, answering against the background sound of Status Quo. Surreal, but again the norm.
They too shook heads in disbelief. More than once, as the songs from the nearby Turf hotel where the club was founded carried on into the night, supporters turned and said 'you couldn't make it up'.
