'They're not messing around' - Ryan Reynolds & Rob McElhenney determined to take Wrexham to the Premier League and every single player in the squad has their phone number, reveals Humphrey Ker

• Wrexham players have phone numbers of Reynolds & McElhenney
• Owners have Premier League dream
• Wrexham flying high in League Two

WHAT HAPPENED? Wrexham's executive director Ker has heaped praise on the two Hollywood owners for doing everything they can to create an environment in which the club can rise through the leagues. A place in the Championship would satisfy most officials behind the scenes at StoK Racecourse, but Reynolds and McElhenney are both aiming to take the club all the way to the top-flight.

WHAT THEY SAID: Speaking to the BBC's Sacked in the Morning podcast, Ker said: "Rob and Ryan's enthusiasm for this is infectious and it's very real. Anyone that ends up speaking to them works out quickly 'Oh, this is, like, these guys are genuine and they're not messing around and this isn't just a big prank or whatever'. We're all just into it, we love it, we're obsessed with it, we want to be part of it. It's not a play thing, its not a toy, its not something we're doing for the laughs.

"If we can establish ourselves in the Championship, we'd be very happy with that. That said, Rob and Ryan's ambition is to get into the Premier League. The idea of Wrexham beating out a Norwich or a Sunderland to make that jump would be an achievement but we are aspiring to it."

THE BIGGER PICTURE: Ker also revealed that Wrexham's co-owners have given out their phone number to all of the Wrexham players in a bid to stay plugged in with goings-on in the dressing room at all times. "Every single one of our players have Rob and Ryan's phone numbers," he added. "They text them, they message them, they see them, they come into the dressing room."
