Wrexham fans can look forward to Championship football next season after beating Charlton Athletic 3-0 on Saturday evening.
This wild ride under Rob McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds just doesn’t seem to be stopping.

Rob McElhenney reaction to Wrexham promotion
Securing back-to-back promotions was a simply incredible achievement for Wrexham and a sign of the remarkable work being done under McElhenney and Reynolds.
Going for a third in a row was bold, and it turns out that McElhenney and Reynolds were warned about Wrexham’s fixtures early in the season.
A tough start on paper brought four wins and one draw from five games, establishing that Wrexham really could cause problems in League One.
Here we are in April, with Wrexham now preparing for life in the Championship with a game to spare.
This has been another incredible Wrexham season, but Rob McElhenney seemingly sees much more on the horizon.
In a clip posted on Wrexham’s official X account, McElhenney was asked for his instant reaction to the promotion.
McElhenney paused for a second before stating ‘not done yet’, suggesting that there is even more to come from this Wrexham side.
Another promotion in a row sounds crazy, but we thought that this time a year ago – and this latest promotion just goes to show that anything is possible at Wrexham right now.
An early look at Wrexham summer plans
We know, the celebrations are certainly still ongoing and Wrexham players will not even have next weekend’s game against Lincoln City on their minds, never mind the summer transfer window.
The planning for next season will start soon, though, and Parkinson has some big calls to make.
We would expect Paul Mullin and Ollie Palmer to move on this summer having been frozen out of the first team in recent months.
Defender Will Boyle and wing back Luke Bolton will surely leave Wrexham having barely been seen this season.
We can imagine Wrexham considering loan deals for Sebastian Revan and Modou Faal as Parkinson prepares for life in the Championship.
In terms of incomings, Rangers playmaker Tom Lawrence is on the Wrexham radar and could be signed on a free transfer.
Wrexham will keep popping the champagne bottles for now, but McElhenney’s brief reaction will leave fans hopeful of a busy and productive summer window.
