Wrexham picked up a potentially title-winning three points with a 3-2 win over league rivals Notts County
Ryan Reynolds says it is “troubling” how “hooked” he is on football after watching his team Wrexham AFC beat Notts County. The Hollywood actor said the drama of the match was “unlike anything you’ve ever seen in a damn movie” and did not quite know how to quantify what he had seen.
“That was unlike anything I’ve ever seen before and indicative, of course, of all of you lifers who have watched and participated in this game, this beautiful torturous game, for forever.” Reynolds, who along with McElhenney was awarded the freedom of the borough at a civic ceremony earlier on Monday, said he felt an “immense sense of pride” towards his team, who “rose to the occasion in every way”. He also paid tribute to Notts County and their late chief executive Jason Turner, who died suddenly on March 30 aged 50.
Reynolds added: “I’m used to working under extreme pressure but usually I have some kind of say in it; I have some control over it. I have nothing here. All I can do is watch and hope like everybody else.
