Wrexham celebrity owners on commentary duty to mark five years since takeover

Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac will provide live commentary on Sky Sports for Wrexham's Championship match against Swansea to celebrate five years since their $2.5 million takeover.

  • On Friday, Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac will take the microphone for Wrexham's home Championship match against Swansea, joining the live Sky Sports broadcast at Wrexham's home stadium.
  • To mark the anniversary, the owners said the commentary stunt celebrates the five-year takeover anniversary and their game-changing Wrexham takeover, framing it as an experimental gesture.
  • Without prior commentary experience, Reynolds and Mac said on Friday they 'we genuinely have no idea how this is going to go,' and guests will join the broadcast on Sky Sports.
  • As the season reaches its run-in, the Sky Sports broadcast arrives during Wrexham's crucial run of 10 games remaining while sitting sixth in the final playoff spot.
  • The takeover transformed Wrexham into a global story, and since the $2.5 million purchase in February 2021 when it was in the non-league fifth tier, the club has achieved three straight promotions and faced recent VAR criticism after a 4-2 FA Cup defeat to Chelsea.
