They claimed a thrilling 3-2 victory over Notts County on Monday to move clear of their nearest rivals at the top of the National League.

In an interview, the Australian actor joked that 'to stick it to Reynolds' he would score the winning goal against Wrexham.

He said he will try out for one of their rival teams.

"I will admit to you that when Ryan bought that team, I did get more than one offer from rivals of that team for £1 to come in as a co-owner and it did seriously tempt me," he said.

Blake Lively
