Fixture Release Day: Toughest Schedules and Controversial Rivals in Championship and League One.

Wrexham, who were promoted from the National League, have the toughest schedule to start their League Two campaign, with their opening game against controversial rivals MK Dons, according to The Athletic's ranking system. Three of their first five games are against teams ranked in the top 10, but three of the five are also at home. Meanwhile, Notts County, who were also promoted from the National League, have an easier start to their League Two campaign, with their opening five fixtures ranked lower than Wrexham's.

"Rob McElhenney's Wrexham AFC aims for Gareth Bale comeback with Hollywood backing"

Wrexham co-owner Rob McElhenney has jokingly attempted to convince retired footballer Gareth Bale to come out of retirement and play for the newly-promoted League Two side. McElhenney tweeted Bale after the Welsh star sent a congratulatory message to the club on their promotion. Bale retired from playing in January at the age of 33, only seven months after joining American side LAFC. Although some Wrexham supporters are dreaming of seeing Bale play for their side, the request appears to be tongue-in-cheek.

Wrexham's Hollywood Dreams with Ryan Reynolds

Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney's Wrexham could secure promotion from the fifth tier of the English game to League Two with a win against Boreham Wood on Saturday. Wrexham has a four-point lead over Notts County and needs three points from its final two matches to guarantee promotion.
