How Sunderland Played a Crucial Role in Rob McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds’ Wrexham Hollywood Fairytale
Without the Sunderland documentary, Wrexham might not be the thriving club it is today. The book reveals that Rob McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds initially considered other clubs, such as Aldershot Town and Bolton Wanderers, before choosing Wrexham. Had they not purchased the club, it’s hard to say where Wrexham would be now, as they were struggling in the National League with financial constraints and issues with timely player payments. McElhenney and Reynolds have proven to be exceptional owners, and their successful investment owes much to the inspiration they drew from Sunderland’s documentary.
