Nobody has asked the question of why? Why did a random Hollywood actor who’s best film is Van Wilder: party liaison, and his mate decided to buy Wrexham.

What’s the plan. Simply saying, ‘getting back in the league’ isn’t really a plan. So far it seems like spunk cash, create media circus, hopefully go up…

The plan is pretty simple, as I see it.

Buy unfashionable club from reasonable sized town for next to fúck all. Use worldwide celebrity status to create global interest and secure Amazon TV deal. Use proceeds from TV deal to fund meteoric rise through the divisions. Flog now famous club for a significant profit, having had a few shíts and giggles and advertised other business interests along the way.

I can’t say I’m a massive fan of what they’re doing, or the patronisation of the Wrexham fans, but it is at least the most self-sufficient models of all sugar daddy ‘investments’ seen to date. In theory at least. Whether it works, this season and beyond, remains to be seen.


A smooth sea never made a skillful mariner.

It's the latest hobby for them,after getting bored with Wrexham because they aren't playing City, Chelsea or Liverpool every week as they had imagined then they will walk away and buy some expensive clubs and take up golfing or summat and when they do Wrexham will drop back to their natural level

To be honest I’m not bothered about them and if it’s not us going up I’d actually hope it’s Wrexham as it takes a big spender out of the league and their loyal supporters (I.e. the ones pre Hollywood) have suffered a lot over the years.

Ryan Reynolds is actually a savvy business investor (try Aviator Gin) so you’d expect that he’d do this properly in a sustainable manner.

I got a lot, and I mean a lot of satisfaction out of watching Reynolds and Co celebrating their last minute offside goal longer than anyone else in the stadium. Has anyone explained the rules to him yet?


That was cringeworthy.  However, I'm pretty sure it was a touchdown.
