Wrexham's promotion-winning celebrations are set to go on long into the night.

Their 6-0 win over Forest Green, coupled with results across the division going their way, means the Welsh side will be playing in League One next year for the first time in 19 years.

Paul Mullin has been a key player once again for Wrexham, scoring 23 goals in League Two, so it made sense that he led the immediate celebrations.

The striker was initially in front of the fans after the club's promotion was confirmed.

Mullin then appeared to suffer some form of cramp in the midst of fist-pumping, which saw him limp away.

As he limped off, the camera crew following him could be seen laughing at the striker's misfortune.

However, he quickly shook off the cramp as Mullin was later spotted in the dressing room leading the promotion celebrations.

The Liverpool-born forward can be seen on a video on the club's dancing on a table.

Perhaps it's no surprise he was on the table, given the song that was playing is by a fellow Scouser, Jamie Webster.

To be fair, 'Weekend In Paradise' is an excellent song choice after Phil Parkinson's side achieved their first back-to-back promotion for over 150 years.

Last year, Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney - the club's co-owners - treated the squad to a Las Vegas trip, so who knows what they have planned after gaining a place in the third tier of English football next year.

Reynolds posted on X after the game in response to one fan thanking Rob and him for buying the club.

But the American made it very clear it wasn't about him or his co-owner.

He said: "Neil, your dad knew many years ago what Rob and I - and the rest of the world - are only recently discovering. Wrexham is indeed magic.

"We are in HIS debt and many thousands of supporters like him."

Wrexham's promotion was confirmed after MK Dons and Barrow dropped points, and once the final whistle went, thousands of fans stormed the Racecourse Ground.

Once they returned to the stands, there was a lengthy lap of honour, and judging by those early dressing room scenes, the players will celebrate long into the night.

Since Wrexham's takeover in 2020, the club has been on a meteoric rise; however, even the staunchest of fan couldn't have predicted this.
