Wrexham have enjoyed great success since being taken over by Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, with the star duo willing to invest in the club. The Red Dragons are currently in League Two, after promotion last season from the National League, and Reynolds has admitted he wants to make more changes at the club but is finding it difficult currently.
He told the Yours Mine Away podcast: “We need a training ground badly. There’s a bunch of different options we are looking at. But it’s not just huge for the club but huge for everybody. We want that to be experienced by everyone living in Wrexham as well. It’s not so easy to say let’s build this thing or grow this thing. You have to get 800 permits before you are allowed.”
Yet Reynolds is no stranger to overcoming obstacles during his time at Wrexham. The Deadpool star has pushed hard to open a new temporary Kop stand at the SToK Racecourse, which was used for the first time in December 2023. The club’s ultimate aim is to give the famous old ground a serious face lift and increase capacity to meet the growing demand for tickets.
Wrexham will continue their promotion push on Saturday when they host Bradford City at the SToK Racecourse in League Two. Parkinson’s team will be hoping to get back to winning ways after losing their last three matches in all competitions for the first time since the manager took charge in 2021.
