We want to thank the people of Wrexham who we met throughout the day for the kind welcome. We’ll be back soon! It was great to be at a game where we got to cheer goals n shout “Wrexham Wrexham” with the fans. Also thanks to the club for their support.

It is safe to say, it was a crazy day in Wrexham yesterday. We loved seeing familiar faces from our previous trips but also meeting so many new people as well! Thanks everyone for the warm welcome. 🇨🇦❤️ All the best for the next few weeks and fingers crossed we can come back🏴
Fantastic review on the BBC about everyone at Wrexham from the fans to the team and even the wonderful Co-Owners. 👏🏻👏🏻 Keep up the fantastic work.

We are 57 friendly Canadians who love to meet people and have a great time!😊

This one is for you
@iamdgrogan
. Thanks Ryan for your condolences. I have shared them with his family. You have no idea how much our trips to Wrexham have meant to us as a community. ❤️🇨🇦
#CanadiansInWrexham
No truer words have been spoken “you’ve got your own brand, what Ryan and Rob have done for the club is amazing but you already had the community and the spirit here, they didn’t bring that you already had it.”❤️🇨🇦 So proud to call you our friends
#CanadiansInWrexham
#Wrexham
you guys were so awesome that we are planning our trip back!! Our group might be smaller this time but we will cheer as though all 60 of us are there! We have some first timers coming with us this time as well!🤗
We hope to get to meet many more of you on Feb 11! ❤️🇨🇦
I think all of my essentials are packed for our trip to
#wrexham
tomorrow🤣
Cannot wait to meet up with the fans again, can’t believe it was 2 months since our first trip!

❤️🇨🇦
What’s not to love about this❤️ Home Sweet Home… it ain’t perfect but we love it!
Maybe next year Wrexham will play in Canada so we can showcase a bit of us ❤️🇨🇦
We as a group are always appreciative of anyone who has gone above & beyond to make our visit memorable. Today we wanted to thank Wayne with a little something from Canada. Maybe next time you see Ryan and Rob you can all have a nice glass of Maple Whiskey. 🤣❤️🇨🇦
When I said friendly people in Wrexham I meant treating us like we are neighbours! Here’s an example! Fellow Canadian Myles came into The Turf wearing a Montreal Canadiens Top and left wearing a Wrexham Jersey! If you see this other guy in Wrexham he’s now a hockey fan🤣🤣❤️🇨🇦
On behalf of our Canadian group we want to wish everyone a Happy New Year.
Blwyddyn Newydd Dda i Gymuned hyfryd Wrecsam. Hope 2023 brings many more fantastic memories.
Hope we get the opportunity to meet you all again soon. ❤️🇨🇦
PS: hope the Welsh part was ok🤞🏼🙈❤️🇨🇦
Last tweet of the day…

When the adults felt like the kids in the group!🤣❤️🇨🇦
Thanks to all the players we met yesterday! Too many to tag on!
OMG.. what can I say..
I’m not sure what we experienced today but it was AMAZING (will keep my language clean🤣) According to my smart watched I did over 15k steps during the game🤪 I go to a lot of sports games and this is one I will NEVER forget! Cant wait to be back in 13 days
On behalf of our group I want to take this opportunity to thank
@welshy1000
for going the extra mile and sourcing real cheese curds so we could have authentic Canadian Poutine at yesterdays game! ❤️🇨🇦 I know it sounds silly but we take our poutine seriously 🤣🤣
I have been to Wrexham 9 times this season and all 9 games the team have won! I am still in shock at what just happened ❤️🇨🇦 Being here to celebrate with the life long fans is something truly special and a privilege.
Some people were asking us why we did this trip to Wrexham. The answer was simple. We wanted to show our support to Ryan. He does a lot in Canada including raising awareness to a lot of issues and helping charities. This video says it all “We love u back”.

Last night, Canada honoured me with a Governor General's Award and this video. I'm not crying. It's just maple syrup.

Many people might have the title of “Leader” but dont act like it’s definition.
To see the team coach on game day, roll up his sleeves n help clear the snow along with many volunteers says everything you need to know about him! He leads by example not words👏🏻❤️🇨🇦
Decision made… I have to go to Wrexham for the final home game, ticket or not… I need to be there! Going solo this time!
@welshy1000
save me a seat at the turf 🤣❤️🇨🇦
It’s with great sadness that I lost one of my best friends yesterday. Dennis was my first Canadian expat friend and a lover of sport especially the Jays! After covid, Wrexham became our place to meet up & continue making fun memories. Will miss you so much.. RIP
Trying really hard to keep it together… thanks to everyone from the bottom of my heart for your hugs and support. Here’s a drink for you Dennis! 💔 The Turf isn’t the same without you.
I’m so pleased tomorrow we have a small contingent of Canadians going to tomorrows awesome game. We might only have 10 but they will cheer as if there were 60 of us🤣🤣❤️🇨🇦 If you see us at the Macron Stand come say hello! 🤗🤗🤗
What an awesome way to end our weekend trip. Being able to speak to so many players about Terry Fox, his story, message and our vision of a Terry Fox Run in Wrexham next year. ❤️🇨🇦
Thank you to all for taking the time to speak to us.

#Wrexham
game. Awesome to see Lenore, Karen, Dennis and Ian once again. And as ALWAYS the awesome welcome by the locals. ❤️🇨🇦 Not too many pictures this time… having too much fun🤣
In Mark Howard we believe. We can’t turn our backs on a player who has given us fans some great wins. We should support them by showing our belief in them. I know those from our group who will be going to the game on Saturday will be cheering extra loud.

❤️🇨🇦
What a crazy day. Today our group grew by 10 to 20, when we met other Canadians from Toronto, Calgary, Montreal and some who flew in from Asia! PS can’t forget our Boston friend 🤣

There are some stories that need sharing that can’t fit in a small number of characters on socials.
This is one story that will stick in our hearts and mind from our time in Wrexham.

I’ve said it 100 times, there’s something special about this community. As a way of a thank you, for always welcoming me and my friends in all our visits, I partnered with the club’s Foundation to provide football camp to kids this week. Seeing those smiles.. priceless. ❤️🇨🇦
I couldn’t resist… I was close to starting to sing
@RMcElhenney
whilst in there 🤣❤️🇨🇦
PS: the room was clear and no one was interrupted whilst taking this picture!😝
When I booked our 1st trip in Nov, we thought it was going to be a one off trip to show our Ryan our support. Little did I expect that 6m later, we would have our own community amongst the locals.
Ryan, Rob want to wish you and the team all the best with the next 4 games.❤️🇨🇦
2 years ago today, was the start of a exciting journey for Wrexham AFC but also the community around it. It’s been great to watch it from afar & because of

When asked why we are supporting Wrexham, this speech says it all. On Friday he was honoured with the Humanitarian Award in Canada and his speech speaks volumes to the person he truly is. He truly is an amazing ambassador for our nation ❤️🇨🇦
Watch 📺👉
📣To all the Wrexham fans going to the game next week!! A handful of us are going to the game (we took the risk and will be on the other side🤪) Just wondering which bar/pub you might all be meeting up at before the game? ❤️🇨🇦 PS: we have been warned not to cheer🤣🤣
WE’RE BACK…damn was it great to be back. This time we have a few new people. Welcome to

We want to thank the incredible staff at
@TheFatBoarWXM
for such a great service and also also taking an interest in what we are trying to do in Wrexham with the Terry Fox Run.
We hope to be back again soon! ❤️🇨🇦
….and people say once you have children don’t expect to sleep again 😜… seems being a football fan is just as bad (but like children those happy moments keep us going) 🤣 ❤️🇨🇦
Thanks to my Wrexham Fairy Godfather for getting me the jersey in preparation for the game on Saturday! You know who you are..😉
Can’t wait to introduce so many awesome locals to the new Canadians going to their first game!
BTW it’s not Ryan!🤣❤️🇨🇦
Canadians back in Wrexham cheering with you guys into promotion. The fans were definitely the 12th member of the team playing yesterday. Just incredible. It was great to also have adopted Canadians joining our party, Ran, Ana and Jason 🥰🇨🇦
We truly are in this together❤️🏴
Can’t believe we are 1 week away from hosting our event in Wrexham all for a great cause. Thanks to
@welshy1000
for all the support in allowing us to use his venue.
Mr Reynolds designed this years annual fundraising t-shirts which we will have with us. ❤️🇨🇦
Sorry for not saying bye to all my friends at the turf tonight … 💔I really tried my best today… Wishing you all a safe and happy Christmas with your family and friends.
Anyone still in disbelief of what the heck happened today… I have gone through every possible emotion in Wrexham that I have nothing left in the tank 🤪🤪❤️🇨🇦
On behalf of our 🇨🇦 community we want to wish Ryan a Happy Birthday… sorry for the bad picture but that’s all I have 🤣😝
Hope you have a fun day celebrating with your friends & family! We are all waiting in anticipation to see what crazy present you’ll be getting from Rob🤪

Hope to see you all again in the new year🤞🏼
Cant believe just like that we are days away from our return trip. We might not be 60 this time, but those attending will cheer as loud.
I'm personally excited as we have some first timers coming with us, excited to show them how awesome the place is.
