WREXHAM AFC co-chairman Rob McElhenney has confirmed he will be making an appearance at the club's latest match today alongside a special guest (September 16).

As Wrexham AFC prepare to take on Birmingham away, the players will have Rob's full support who is flying to the UK especially to cheer them on.

The co-chairman confirmed his attendance at last night's Emmy Awards, hosted in Los Angeles's Peacock Theatre.

During an interview, he teased that he'd be joined by none other than David Beckham, professional retired English footballer.

"Everything you touch turns to gold, including your soccer team", the interviewer said.

McElhenney replied: "After the Emmy's I'm hopping on a plane to Birmingham, England, to watch Wrexham play.

"I believe Mr David Beckham will be there as well. We'll just have a good time."
