Wrexham is trending because West Ham beat them 6-0 on Friday, their heaviest defeat under the ownership of Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac. The Championship match at the London Stadium has drawn attention both for the size of the scoreline and for its significance in Wrexham’s recent history: it was also their heaviest league defeat for more than 22 years.
Wrexham manager Phil Parkinson described the rout as among his lowest points, adding to the focus on the team’s performance. For West Ham, the result had a very different significance. It was their fourth consecutive victory and moved them to the top of the Championship. The coverage centres on that contrast: a major setback for Wrexham and their manager, alongside a convincing win that put West Ham in first place.
