LIFELONG WREXHAM FAN LIVING IN AMERICA DISCUSSES THE IMPACT MADE BY ROB AND RYAN

A LIFELONG Wrexham AFC fan living in America has spoken about the interest in the Reds since the takeover of Rob McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds.

Tim Taylor, was born in Wrexham but moved to the States in 2005 for work.

The 48-year-old, who now lives in Florida, has always been a huge Wrexham AFC fan and has followed their progress while living stateside.

Since the Hollywood takeover of Rob and Ryan, there has been a huge swell of interest in Wrexham AFC in America, something Tim has become accustomed to.

Tim said the interest in Wrexham, Rob and Ryan in the USA is 'huge' following the takeover.

He added: "I've been a Wrexham AFC fan all my life and have followed their progress ever since, even from the USA when I moved there in 2005.

"What Rob and Ryan have done has been amazing, in the US a lot have people have asked me if I've heard about Welcome to Wrexham, so it's great seeing the surprise on their faces when I tell them that's where I'm from."

Not only does Tim keep a keen eye on Wrexham's results, he also helps coach a local football club, which coincidentally is called 'Team Dragon'.

He volunteers to coach the youngsters from Florida, who had decided on the name before knowing where Tim originated from.

Tim says he 'really enjoys' coaching the group, made up of nine and 10-year-olds and that he hopes to keep the 'Dragon' name moving forward next season.
