SPOILER ALERT: This story contains spoilers from the two episode-premiere of Season 5 of “Welcome to Wrexham.”

Wrexham AFC’s path towards the Premier League has been lined with victories, and one of the biggest among them is last month’s news that FX has ordered an additional three seasons of the hit docuseries “Welcome to Wrexham.” Premiering in 2022, the Emmy-winning “Welcome to Wrexham” chronicles the North Wales team’s rise through the ranks of football, brought on by the team’s change in ownership after Hollywood A-listers Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac (formerly known as Rob McElhenney of “It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia” fame) bought the club in 2021.
