WHAT JACKMAN SAID
Now, Manning has drawn Jackman into the feud, with the Wolverine & Deadpool star a close friend of Wrexham owner Ryan Reynolds.
In the clip, Manning says: “Hey Tom, you made some valid points in your message and I heard them well and they hurt a little bit, so I had to bring in my ringer, Hugh here, he’s got a few trophies of his own.”
Jackman then walks into frame and adds: “Yeah, I do, you’re being too nice man. Listen Tom, dude, I’m a big fan of you, but mate you’ve crossed a line. Two championships, six claws, that’s eight. Don’t start it. Come on Wrexham.”
He ends the message saying “I still love you, Tom.”
WHAT NEXT?
Wrexham and Birmingham meet on Monday evening. They are both unbeaten in League One; Wrexham have won four and drawn one of their opening five games, while Birmingham have won three and drawn one of their four fixtures.
