WREXHAM will give Stockport a guard of honour on the last day of the season after their rivals secured the League Two title.
The pair have chased promotion all season long and achieved their goals last weekend.
Wrexham crossed the line in fine fashion as they thrashed Forest Green 6-0, while Stockport beat Morecambe.
And Dave Challinor’s side followed up their victory by thrashing Notts County 5-2 to win the league.
That means Wrexham are set to give Stockport a guard of honour – as is customary for the champions.
There will be a party atmosphere at the Racecourse Stadium on April 27 after the Red Dragons secured back-to-back promotions for the first time in the club’s 159-year history.
Wrexham will now compete in the third tier next season for the first time in 19 years.
Owner Ryan Reynolds was reduced to tears as he hailed the promotion.
He wrote on X: “A few years ago, if you told me I would be crying tears of joy over a football match taking place in North Wales, you would be Rob McElhenney.
“Congrats to Wrexham and to my co-chairman in crime. Double up the town! This is the ride of our lives.”
CO-OWNER Ryan Reynolds hasn't been able to make it to Wrexham in recent weeks due to filming commitments.
But that hasn’t stopped him from watching his team in style.
Streaming the match on a laptop or even a TV was not grand enough for the Deadpool star as he worked on the set of his latest movie.
With a giant green screen behind him, he could not resist broadcasting Wrexham’s recent game on to the huge projector.
Reynolds and his crew watched on as the Welsh side notched their 23rd win of the season against Crawley Town.
He looked enamoured as the game played on behind him while surrounding by various pieces of Hollywood machinery.
And Reynolds captioned the moment: “Watching the Wrexham game at work: new level unlocked.”
It’s not clear what project Reynolds was working on at the time, with the actor currently developing several new movies including sequels to smash hits Free Guy and Red Notice.

Co-owner Rob McElhenney expressed his regret that he could not be in Wales to witness the promotion in person, and said the time away from the club to film in Hollywood was “killing him”.
He has since posted on X to celebrate his club’s promotion, tweeting Wrexham’s stadium announcer to say: “Hey @m_griffiths92 noticed you’re reading tweets. My son and I just wanted to say hi from Los Angeles. Quite a lovely day, huh? #askwxm”
He then quoted a post from the club celebrating promotion saying: “No words
