Blackburn admin trolls Wrexham's Hollywood ownersAsked if Wrexham needed directions to Blackburn's homeBlackburn take on Wrexham in the FA Cup fourth roundWHAT HAPPENED?
After drawing Wrexham in the fourth round of the FA Cup on Monday, Blackburn X admin trolled the Welsh club's Hollywood owners Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney. They shared a wildly inaccurate map of UK football clubs – which emerged in the second season of the 'Welcome to Wrexham' documentary – to take a dig at the Red Dragons.

Quoting one of their old X posts from October 23, the Blackburn admin shared the map with the caption, "See you soon, @Wrexham_AFC. Let us know if you need directions?"

The map that was shown in the documentary, attempted to show the location of UK football clubs, albeit unsuccessfully. The map was widely mocked for its inaccuracy, with Blackburn one of several teams unimpressed with their supposed geographical location.

The two clubs are set to square off in the FA Cup fourth round between 26 to 29 January at Ewood Park. For now, Wrexham will shift focus to League Two where they take on AFC Wimbledon in a crucial encounter on Saturday. On the same day, Blackburn face West Brom in the Championship.
