    It's nothing to do with money, Ryan Reynolds is a Hollywood actor, he is famous with mass appeal, people are interested in what he does. No one is interested in what Neerav's family do.

    Ryan Reynolds also owns or part owns various production companies. He makes films and television shows. He's famous for being in front of the camera, but most of his efforts are put in to creating successful content when he's behind the camera. This is not the business Neerav's family are in.

    I know you weren't being entirely serious but I'm just pointing out why it's a non starter.

    Referees seem to have been bending over backwards to give Wrexham points all season

    Birmingham have been awarded 13 penalties this season.

    All true.

    But all you’d need to do is chuck in a few guest appearances from Virat Kohli and you’d probably triple the viewing figures of Wrexham overnight with him in it.

    Different market over in India - you just apply what’s popular over there to it.

    100% that the EFL want them promoted and I do reckon that refs fall into the same trap.

    weird that you never see these teams claiming about other teams getting soft pens against them.

    If they piped in typically hysterical Indian crowd noise (eg cricket fans) that would create some atmosphere. I wouldn’t be there to hear it though.

    Nah I didn't say you did. Just people did at the time. That season it became obvious to me something had changed with the officials. It went from 1 or 2 dodgy ref performances per season to "yeah, this obvious corruption". It's sad really. As fans we pay way over the odds to watch a competitive sport, just for the authorities to turn it into a shambles.

    Edit: Sorry, realised I'd got the wrong end of the stick.
