Ryan Reynolds’ message shows just how important Humphrey Ker was to Wrexham

Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney have paid tribute to departing director Humphrey Ker, with Reynolds admitting he would never have been introduced to Wrexham AFC without him. Ker formally stepped down from both the club and Wrexham AFC Foundation boards on September 25, 2026, ending a five-year spell during which the team earned three consecutive promotions to reach the Championship.

Ker stated that the club's evolving structure made it increasingly difficult to make a positive contribution, prompting his exit. Both Reynolds and McElhenney praised Ker's foundational devotion, noting his crucial role in facilitating the 2021 ownership takeover.
