Rotherham United boss Steve Evans’ glowing verdict on Wrexham owners Rob McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds
Wrexham are set to face off with Rotherham United in a League One meeting on Saturday afternoon.
Phil Parkinson takes his Red Dragons to the New York Stadium from a 3pm BST kick-off, aiming to end a poor run of form on the road.
Wrexham have an excellent home record in 2024/25 and are one of just three sides across all of the EFL to have won all of their home fixtures so far this term.
While very strong at the Racecourse Ground, however, the Welsh outfit have already drawn two and lost two away from home in League One this season.
That poor run of form will hopefully come to an end on Saturday when Wrexham face Rotherham United but if it does not, the former’s promotion hopes could take a big hit.
Wrexham are already two points off top spot having played a game more than Birmingham City but they should be confident ahead of facing Steve Evans’ side
