Since Wrexham was bought by Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, residents of the area where the club's stadium, The Racecourse Ground, is located, have not been at peace. After being taken over by Hollywood stars, the Welsh town of Wrexham is packed with tourists.
to the sun, Residents around the stadium said that the area has become more crowded with a large number of tourists. Greater mobility of people is good for the economy, but it causes disruption to traffic, for example, which is closed on match days.
The stadium could become more crowded in the coming years, as the club, which competes in the fourth division in England, aims to increase the stadium's capacity by an additional 5,500 seats.
Homes near the site are also becoming more expensive as demand increases. Quarrels, parking in prohibited places, and road closures are also problems faced by residents.
“It's a nightmare on game days, with the traffic and parking. You become a prisoner in your own home,” one area resident said.
In 2020, Hollywood heavy hitters Rob McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds acquired Wrexham for £2 million (R$12 million at current prices). The team is currently competing in the English fourth division, and occupies second place in the second league with 33 points.
