Wrexham promoted: Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney-owned side earn historic promotion to Championship | Football Newsnews24

Wrexham earned a historic third successive promotion to reach the Championship after a 3-0 home win over Charlton sealed second place in League One.

The Welsh side’s Hollywood rise under co-owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney has taken them to the second tier, becoming the first side to win three consecutive promotions in the top five leagues of English football.

After Wycombe were beaten 1-0 at Leyton Orient earlier on Saturday, Wrexham needed to beat Charlton at home to confirm their promotion, and they did thanks to Oliver Rathbone’s opener and Sam Smith’s double.

Phil Parkinson’s side will join League One title winners Birmingham, whom they sit 13 points behind, in next season’s Championship.

It is a third promotion in a row for Wrexham after winning the National League in 2022/23, followed by a second-placed finish in League Two last season as they finished as runners-up to Stockport.
