The FA Cup dream is over for National League side Wrexham after they lost 3-1 at Bramhall Lane in their 4th round replay against Sheffield United.

Co-owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney say they are "so proud" of the Wrexham FC squad, despite their heart-breaking loss.

The pair are co-owners of the Welsh club and expressed their thanks to the fans and players who "gave it absolutely everything".

The pair took full control of the National League club from the Wrexham Supporters Trust in February 2021, investing £2 million under the terms of the deal.

They followed up with the fly-on-the-wall Welcome to Wrexham documentary, which aired on US TV channel FX in 2022.

The Critics' Choice Award-winning show documents the team's progress, and tells the story of the club, founded in 1864, which has the world's oldest international ground.
