The Hollywood actor showed his class in a message he sent to the head coach directly after the heavy loss, expressing that the team still &#8220;had his back.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>The heavy defeat was inflicted on Wrexham back in September following their triumphant promotion back into League Two. The team, under the guidance of Parkinson, won the National League the season prior with 11 points &#8211; a record for the most points earned in a season &#8211; ending their 45-year trophy drought and 15-year spell in the league.<\/p>\n<p>Wrexham endured a mixed run of form following their promotion, but after four wins in a row the team stumbled against Stockport at the Edgeley Park. The Red Dragons let in three goals before half-time thanks to efforts from Isaac Olaofe and Louie Barry. Olaofe would complete his hattrick in the second half with Paddy Madden scoring in the final minute to add further salt into the wound.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/5076042.jpg?r=1700508083402\"><\/p>\n<p>The defeat was the team&#8217;s heaviest since losing against Luton Town almost a decade prior. It was also the third time in nine league games they had conceded five goals.<\/p>\n<p>Despite frustrations at the manner of the result, McElhenney was quick to show his support to Parkinson. The actor has since revealed that he sent a message of reassurance to Parkinson immediately following the defeat.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cPhil, we are right behind you,\u201d the text read according to The Athletic. \u201cWe are right with you.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/dynamic\/67\/590x\/secondary\/5076045.jpg?r=1700508083451\"><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/path> <\/path> <\/g> <defs> <clippath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"><\/rect> <\/clippath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Support fearless journalism<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/path> <\/path> <\/g> <defs> <clippath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"><\/rect> <\/clippath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Read The Daily Express online, advert free<\/li>\n<li> <svg width=\"24\" height=\"24\" viewbox=\"0 0 24 24\" fill=\"none\" xmlns=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/2000\/svg\"> <g clip-path=\"url(#clip0_1078_5986)\"> <\/path> <\/path> <\/g> <defs> <clippath> <rect width=\"23.4329\" height=\"23.4329\" fill=\"white\" transform=\"translate(0 0.134262)\"><\/rect> <\/clippath> <\/defs> <\/svg> Get super-fast page loading<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.images.express.co.uk\/img\/logo\/logo-premium-subscription.png\"><\/p>\n<p> <strong> Don&#8217;t miss&#8230; <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Egypt release statement after Liverpool star Mo Salah targeted by pitch invaders[LATEST] <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Everton told 10-point Premier League deduction for breaking rules is fair[LATEST] <\/strong> <br \/> <strong>Arsenal &#8216;refusing to rule out&#8217; sanctioning surprise January exit for Vieira[LATEST] <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>\u201cI sent that text before the final whistle,\u201d McElhenney added. \u201cI wanted to make sure he knew, as soon as he got back to the locker room, that we had his back.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt is easy to be supportive when things are great and things are all going to plan.
