And the hugely-popular Welcome to Wrexham series following the pair's journey has sky-rocketed the club's popularity through the roof.

Shirt sales have surpassed 24,000 this season alone and new fans are coming in from around the world - even from as far away as Canada and the USA.

Today marks the two-year anniversary of the pair's takeover being approved - a process which was again showcased on Welcome to Wrexham.

Wrexham AFC wrote: "ON THIS DAY | Two years ago today we beat Altrincham 2-1 thanks to two Kwame Thomas goals... oh, and then the takeover of the Football Club was confirmed! Happy Anniversary, @RMcelehnney and @Vancityreynolds!"

Both Ryan and Rob have been very 'hands on' in their approach to handling matters at the club, regularly attending matches.

Ryan was last at the Racecourse ground for the club's thrilling 3-3 FA Cup draw v Championship side Sheffield United at the end of January.

During their journey to date, progress has also been made on the home ground with the Kop in the process of being re-developed.
