WREXHAM AFC'S star owners have reacted to the ten-goal thriller that unfolded in their latest match.
Wrexham were 4-1 down to Swindon Town at half time in their latest League Two match on Saturday (August 19).
A spirited fightback saw them pull it back to 4-3 before Daniel Kemp had seemingly wrapped things up for the visitors by adding a fifth with 20 minutes to go.
But, Wrexham had other ideas as two stoppage time goals from James Jones (92') and Elliot Lee (96') secured a comeback for the ages.
As always, the club's owners - Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney - reacted to the match in typical honest fashion.

On his Instagram story, he added: "That was the most coked up, insane football match I've seen in a long while."
