When asked if Wrexham players had received a party from their owners, he told CBS Sports: “No, they didn’t!
“They’ve promised us a big deal, though, at the end of the season.

“They’ve promised us a monster one at the end of the season. If we get promoted, they’re gonna take us away somewhere with a lot of flashing lights.”
According to The Athletic, Reynolds and McElhenney are set to deliver on their “monster” promise by arranging a promotion party in Las Vegas.
“There is a trip to Las Vegas being mooted,” Wrexham board advisor Shaun Harvey told the publication.
It is added that Wrexham players are set to share a hefty £200,000 bonus, which came from them ensuring promotion, between them alongside their potential Las Vegas trip.
