<\/p>\nRyan Reynolds has been pulled into an online war of words with the chairman of Accrington Stanley who was left fuming after Wrexham released a statement publicly criticising their opponent’s ticket price policy hours before kick-off on Saturday. The Red Dragons visited the Wham Stadium at the weekend for an EFL League Two encounter against John Coleman’s side, which Stanley went on to win 2-0.<\/p>\n
The hosts had decided to increase ticket prices for the well-attended fixture by \u00a35 per ticket to cover the costs of high policing and extra stewarding on the day. In response, Wrexham released a statement indicating that they were not happy with the decision and offered a counter-move to their fans in response.<\/p>\n
It read: “In response to Accrington Stanley’s decision to increase the matchday price by \u00a35 from that previously charged at Wham Stadium for league games this season, we have decided to reduce the price of matchday tickets by \u00a35 for the return game at the ST\u014dK Cae Ras on 02\/03\/2023.”<\/p>\n
The statement prompted a furious response from Accrington’s long-time chairman Andy Holt, who took to social media to air his thoughts in a succession of posts on X (formerly Twitter).<\/p>\n
Holt started by writing: “A better question is why would you put this out a few hours before kick off?”<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
He then followed his reply up by saying: “When costs are already high @Wrexham_AFC the last thing football needs is stupid mistimed statements. It\u2019s surprising how stupid given a former CEO of @EFL is employed by you.”<\/p>\n
After Accrington won the match, a still-riled Holt returned to X to rub some salt into the wounds.<\/p>\n
He posted: “Accrington 2 Hollywood nil. I think @VancityReynolds should cut prices by a tenner @Wrexham_AFC. Safe journey home folks. Get that on @netflix Ryan lad.”<\/p>\n
On Sunday morning Holt was back online to make another point about Wrexham. This time he wrote: “And @Wrexham_AFC streamed the match internationally, a match that WE paid for and hosted, without us receiving a single $cent. Under rules set by a previous employee of @EFL who now works for Wrexham. So don\u2019t start me off.”<\/p>\n
