A 3-0 victory over Charlton at a raucous SToK Racecourse got them over the line in 2024-25, with Hollywood co-owners Reynolds and McElhenney in attendance for a game that will likely figure prominently in Season 4 of the ‘Welcome to Wrexham’ documentary series.
THE GOSSIP
Lively was also in Wales alongside her husband Reynolds and thoroughly enjoyed the occasion, as she mingled with the masses and joined in with post-match celebrations that quickly spilled over onto the pitch.
WHAT BLAKE LIVELY SAID
Lively has said in an emotional social media post: “@wrexham_afc thank you to the entire town, everyone who flew in far and wide, and to everyone on the field and off, from groundskeepers to stewards, gift shop to PT, kit managers to self elected chant writers. history was made yesterday not just with you, but because of you.
“I’ll always appreciate the warmth and embrace that you give me and my loved ones, in a way usually reserved for family. Your passion and the ferocity of your joy is the magic. Thank you for an unforgettable day. And for being a key part of our lives every day.
“Congratulations to the entire team, their families and the one and only Phil Parkinson. You show us all that impossible dreams really can come true.
“@robmcelhenney & @vancityreynolds my favorite “crazy ones, misfits, rebels, troublemakers, round pegs in the square holes… ones who see things differently”. Thank you for the community and elation you bring me, your family’s and so many.
“And congratulations to the @wrexhamafcwomen on another incredible season. We’re so proud of you and grateful to all you do to elevate girls dreams. Seeing so many little girls on the pitch last night wearing Wrexham jerseys was one of my highlights.”
