WREXHAM supporters are getting “horny” after they made their first summer signing.
Excitement has been mounting for years at the Welsh club ever since Hollywood stars Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney bought them in November 2000.

After two near-misses, Wrexham finally sealed promotion from the National League last term to end their 15-year stint in non-league.
The third-oldest football team in the world are now preparing for life in League Two and will kick-off the campaign at home to MK Dons on August 5.
The Red Dragons have been heavily-backed by their silverscreen owners over recent seasons.
And now anticipation for their EFL return has reached a climax for at least one supporter as they announced their first new addition to Phil Parkinson’s squad.
Wrexham announced on Thursday that they had snapped up defender Will Boyle from Championship side Huddersfield.
The 27-year-old defender has penned a three-year deal with them – and excitement went into overload on social media after the news was broken.
One fan replied: “Class. I’m horny.”
Another believes that it is just the start of another successful campaign as they boldly predicted: “What an excellent signing that is, back to back promotions here we come.”

“This is one heck of a move,” claimed another. “Boyle is a quality player.
“Far too good for League Two. Don’t suppose we’ll be there long.”
And, to the tune of Status Quo’s hit song ‘Rockin’ All Over the World’, another tweeted: “I like it, I like it, I like it, I like it, I liiiiike it. Here we goooo. We’re going up twice in a row.”
While a fellow fan wrote: “FINALLY and a good signing as well.
“A championship level centre-back with Huddersfield and experience from playing alongside [Ben] Tozer at Cheltenham, will be good for us.”
Reynolds and McElhenney recently paid for Wrexham’s post-season trip to Las Vegas – with goalie Ben Foster revealing how much he believed it cost.
Wrexham’s four-day trip to Vegas included several pool parties and nightclub visits.
On their first night in Sin City, the players were invited to the exclusive Hakkasan restaurant where they enjoyed a meal before moving on to the nightclub.
Upon arriving at the extravagant club, the Red Dragons were greeted with a Wrexham song and a highlight reel including the club’s best moments from the 2022-23 campaign.
The club badge was also projected onto the wall and ceiling while the players enjoyed the VIP treatment.
Now Boyle and his new team-mates are set to return to the States for the club’s pre-season tour of America.
