It’s fittingly been a Hollywood-like start to the 2025–26 season for Wrexham, who have played two games with thrilling finales.
The Welsh side are competing in the second tier of English football for the first time in over 40 years and are aiming to continue their meteoric rise with a fourth successive promotion. Their credentials were laid out at Southampton last week, even if they struggled to touch the ball, but the Saints turned a 1-0 deficit into a 2–1 lead at the death.
On Tuesday night, it was Wrexham’s turn to stage their own thrilling resurgence, as Ollie Palmer struck twice in stoppage time to take their Carabao Cup first round tie against Hull City to penalties. Victory in the subsequent shootout seemed inevitable after Palmer’s heroics.
Will the thrills and spills continue at the Racecourse this weekend?
West Bromwich Albion haven’t been the most exhilarating of watches since their Premier League relegation in 2021, and that theme is set to continue despite appointing a hipster-appeasing manager in Ryan Mason. The novice coach isn’t buying into the Wrexham hype, but perhaps his team will be sucked into the Hollywood whirlwind on Saturday.
