What happened. Wrexham co-owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac posted a light-hearted video referencing the Spygate saga before Southampton's visit to the Racecourse Ground on Saturday. The skit, nominally promoting shirt sponsor Firefox, sees Reynolds emerge from behind a tree and joke about privacy and spies.
- Reynolds says they want to talk about 'the importance of privacy'
- Mac adds a line about preventing spies from seeing what you do
- The pair name-check Middlesbrough, Oxford and Ipswich
“Today, for no particular reason, we want to talk about the importance of privacy.”
— Ryan Reynolds
Southampton, docked four points and removed from the play-off final over Spygate, visit Wrexham on Saturday at 15:00 BST.
