Ollie Palmer claims Ryan Reynolds “loves a big, sweaty hug”, with Wrexham’s co-owners probably more ripped than most of the players.
WHAT HAPPENED?
Deadpool star Reynolds has, while filming the ‘Welcome to Wrexham’ documentary, highlighted how often he considers Red Dragons striker Palmer to be walking around with no shirt on. He addressed that issue when wife Blake Lively paid a visit to SToK Racecourse, but Palmer says Reynolds and fellow co-chairman Rob McElhenney have nothing to worry about when it comes to body image.
WHAT PALMER SAID
Palmer has told the Men In Blazers podcast: “What’s with all the topless things? Is that because of Mr Reynolds always telling me I’ve got my shirt off? He loves a big, sweaty cuddle! To be fair I think Rob McElhenney has got a better body, and probably Ryan now that he has been filming Deadpool, than most of the lads anyway so they haven’t got to worry about us having our tops off!”

WHAT NEXT FOR WREXHAM?
Wrexham swept their way to the National League title in record-breaking style last season – earning an all-expenses-paid trip to Las Vegas courtesy of Reynolds and McElhenney – and Phil Parkinson now has his side within touching distance of top spot in League Two.
