" The community have been very welcoming, " She Said .

Fans gathered outside The Gates at Wrexham's ground early to try to get a glimpse of any celebrity Rivals - and they weren't disappointed with Jackman pausing to wave to them.

The two celebrities have had a comedic feud for several years.

Community groups have also been given plenty to shout about too as many have been given free tickets to matches to make The Club as accessible as possible.

Sam Jones from Dynamic Wrexham, a charity that works with Young People with disabilities, said: " It's absolutely fantastic. I think it's 56 different community groups that they've reached with The Ticket scheme, so that's about 5,000 tickets in total. "

While The Team is Looking Forward to a new season in the Football League , the " Wrex-factor" has encouraged some to look back at The City 's footballing history.

The Football Museum for Wales has launched a guided heritage tour to highlight the places in Wrexham where significant sporting moments occurred, including the founding of the FAW in 1876.

It also looks at the impact women and diverse communities have had on the sport.

Football coach Anne-Marie Withers, who has taken part in The Tour , said: " I found it all really interesting and it gave me a massive insight into the history of football in Wrexham. "

Delwyn Derrick, one of The Tour guides, said re-joining the Football League was another huge moment for Wrexham fans.

" I think that's a huge point of pride for everyone who supports The Club or just generally from The Town to see Wrexham back in the Football League where we have always believed they belong. "
