WHAT THEY SAID: During an open-top bus parade that allowed players to celebrate their achievements with a loyal fan base, executive director Humphrey Ker said of Reynolds and McElhenney boasting childlike passion for their roles at Wrexham: “They are the chairmen but they are also fans. They get as excited by the opportunity to talk to Elliot Lee, Ben Tozer or whoever it may be like the rest of us do. They are drinking it up, they are two very happy men right now.”
THE BIGGER PICTURE: Reynolds and McElhenney were back in Wrexham for said parade, with Ker delighted to see smiles back on collective faces. He added on the Dragons’ achievements under committed co-owners: “There was a moment in the documentary last year where you see Rob and Ryan telling the guys what they have achieved, irrespective of promotion, and what they have done to this town. I think that is really true.
"We were surrounded by all these fans for the open-top bus parade and that was brilliant, so exciting. Just to have this sense of pride and excitement that everybody has got being a Wrexham fan right now. We know how much people in this town wanted to get back in the Football League, how much they wanted to experience Football League life again and the sense of pride that comes with that.”
