They may not have finished in first place, but Wrexham proved they have quality in abundance compared to the other teams in the fourth division. Phil Parkinson's side had a 10-point cushion to MK Dons in the first play-off spot and you wouldn't bet against them to compete in a tougher division next term.
WHAT ROB MCELHENNEY SAID
McElhenney's emotional moment was captured on video and posted to Instagram. Addressing those he had watched the game with, he said: "Every single person here plays and has played a role in this club. Going from the National League to League One in three years is just absolutely incredible. Everybody here at the club puts in maximum effort shift after shift. Nick Grad is here, he works at FX and is a very important part of the process. So to everybody, cheers!"

Wrexham have achieved back-to-back promotions and will play in League One for the first time since 2005. Their 15-year absence from the EFL is but a distant memory and their 15 wins in the 2023-24 campaign was only bettered by champions Stockport. Next season, the Dragons will have trips to Reading, Blackpool and Huddersfield to look forward to as they take their next step under their famous owners.
