Wrexham FC Promotion: After defeating Boreham Wood 3-1 last week at the Racecourse Ground, Wrexham won the National League championship and a spot in League Two for the upcoming season, ending their 15 years wait. Club owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney broke down in tears after the final whistle as jubilant supporters flooded the pitch. Speaking after Wrexham’s decisive 3-2 win over Notts County earlier this month, goalkeeper Ben Foster stated that Reynolds and McElhenney ‘promised a big deal’ if the Red Dragons won promotion.

When asked if Wrexham players had received a party from their owners, Foster told CBS Sports, ‘No, they didn’t!’
‘They’ve promised us a big deal, though, at the end of the season.’
‘They’ve promised us a monster one at the end of the season. If we get promoted, they’re gonna take us away somewhere with a lot of flashing lights.’
Wrexham will still play one more game this weekend when they visit Torquay. Players may probably anticipate an amazing promotion bash after their trip to Plainmoor.
According to reports of The Athletic, Reynolds and McElhenney are reportedly planning a promotion party in Las Vegas to fulfil their ‘monster’ promise. ‘There is a trip to Las Vegas being mooted.’ Wrexham board advisor Shaun Harvey confirmed the publication.
Moreover, the standings further enhanced with Wrexham players are set to share a hefty £200,000 bonus, after they secured promotion. Also, next Tuesday, Wrexham will host an open-top bus parade for spectator enjoyment.
With the trip to Las Vegas on the cards for the players, it won’t be the only US trip this summer for Wrexham stars. Ahead of their return to EFL League Two, the Red Dragons will tour the country in pre-season, as they are set to face Chelsea in South Carolina on July 19, before travelling to San Diego to play against Manchester United a week later.
