WREXHAM'S co-chairman have celebrated their new signing after his late winning goal at Altrincham.
Irishman Eoghan O'Connell joined the Reds from Charlton on deadline day following the injuries to Aaron Hayden and Jordan Tunnicliffe in the 3-3 FA Cup draw against Sheffield United.
Prior to the announcement of his arrival, Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney put out a typically funny video teasing fans about the signature of the centre half.
Ryan jokingly struggled with the pronunciation of Eoghan, despite Rob's best efforts.

However, following the Reds late 2-1 win at Altrincham, where O'Connell made his debut and scored an 85th-minute winner, it seems clear that the Hollywood pair certainly know how to say his name now.
Not long after his goal, Ryan tweeted: "eOOOOOOOOOOOOOOghan."

While Rob asked his co-chairman if he knew how to pronounce it.
The Always Sunny creator added: "Hey @VancityReynolds know how to say his name now?"

It won't only be Rob and Ryan celebrating the new signing, the majority of the Red Army will be thanking the new lad for his late winner.
The Reds are now three points off top spot in the National League, with two games in hand.
Next up is a trip to Bramall Lane to face Sheffield United in the FA Cup replay, the winner of which hosts Spurs in the Fifth Round.
