BT Sport Preview | They'll Be Watching Wrexham All Over The World!

By Sam Elliott

There are sure to be thousands of Wrexham fans tuning in on Monday night - and BT Sport may even have two new subscribers from Hollywood.

Watch Wrexham vs Maidenhead United on BT Sport 1 from 7.30pm

Acting A-Listers Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney are interested in investing and they have already been watching online.

Game of Thrones star McElhenney even posed on Twitter on Saturday night toasting the club’s valiant victory at Yeovil while wearing the Dragons shirt.

Both of the big names will be delighted with what they have seen so far, Dean Keates’ men winning two of their first three in their best start for some time.

Now they go looking to move joint top of the National League table with a win again poor starters Maidenhead United.

Alan Devonshire’s team have had a first three games to forget, losing them all while letting in ten goals already.

Manager Keates said: “It is great that they are showing a real interest - it is not a publicity stunt.

“What happens over the next few weeks goes above me.

"But if they are watching they would have seen a set of lads giving everything for the football club.

“The most important name is on the badge on the front and not the name on the back, that has been drilled into them from day one and they are showing that.”

After the club’s 1-0 win at Yeovil, the Racecourse boss said on the club’s video service: “To come away to a side who will be up there at the end of the season and win is fantastic.

“They only had one shot on goal - I couldn’t be any happier, we were outstanding.

“We were in on Sunday and had a cool down and a de-brief. We may freshen it up but every game in this division is difficult.

“I believe we have got enough and we’ll be ready to go on Monday night.”

How Devonshire’s side desperately need a pick-me-up after Saturday’s 4-0 home humbling by Hartlepool United.

They face another promotion chaser two days on but coach Aaron O’Brien says it wasn’t all negative at the weekend.

He knows the Magpies can put bad form to one side in front on the cameras and avoid a fourth straight defeat.

“We were really good in the first-half and had three or four good chances,” he told the club’s Twitter account.

“We were just starting to get back into the game and they score again - it deflated us a little bit.

“If that doesn’t go in so early into the second half then it’s a different game.

"It knocked the stuffing out of the side and we struggle from then on in.

“We can’t afford to be too down about the result. We’ve got a big game against Wrexham on Monday night now and we need to bounce back.”
