Ryan Reynolds is slowly picking up on the soccer lingo. The Wrexham AFC co-owner caused a storm of encouragement ever since taking over the team with friend Rob McElhenney. As outsiders, they managed to slowly get into the Welsh culture, connecting with the fans, and learning more about football. But coming from a different world, they also picked up on the little aspects of the game.

The team that was once at its full glory lost its charm due to mismanagement. It was still a non-league team when it was handed over to its current celebrity owners. Not only did they get exposure through PR, but they also worked their way up through their performance. Reynolds also learned some things through it.

How Wrexham taught some unique phrases to Ryan Reynolds

Football and its fans have their own world, full of emotions and high on energy. While Ryan Reynolds always dreamed of being part of sports, his dream was completed by purchasing the Welsh team for £2 million. In an interview, Reynolds revealed to Variety about the rollercoaster ride he has experienced with the team. He was talking about how the team failed back in 2022 to get promoted. While it was just a learning lesson for them, it was their surprising win that made him understand the meaning of ‘Squeaky bum time’.

The team won their recent big match at the Racecourse Ground, where English footballer Ben Foster’s penalty helped them win against their promotional rivals, Notts County. Considering the high intensity of it all, the phrase made sense. It refers the squeaky sound that a chair makes when a person moves in anxiety and anticipation on a plastic chair.

With the world’s eyes on them, Wrexham will continue to see changes now that they have been promoted.

What lies ahead for the team?

Wrexham is set to have multiple friendly matches in July with big names like Manchester United. They also had Blake Lively’s Betty Buzz sponsoring their new jersey to spice up their looks during practice.

Apart from the team, the owners have got the thumbs up from the local Government along with financial support to renovate their Racecourse Ground and fit in more people. Although an unpredictable storm has caused leakage and damage at their club 1864 Suite, and the owners have to deal with the expenses now.
