Record-breaking crowd turn out to watch Harrogate Town host Wrexham A record-breaking crowd turned out to see Harrogate Town draw 2-2 with Wrexham last night (Tuesday). Town hosted the high-flying Welsh side in a thrilling draw at EnviroVent Stadium, fighting back from a 2-0 deficit. And Harrogate Town have revealed the total capacity for the match was 3,767 - the highest of the season so far. Prior to kick off, speculation was rife as to whether Hollywood A-lister Ryan Reynolds, who co-owns Wrexham, would attend the match. But attentions turned to the pitch for the match and Harrogate were unlucky not to turn a 2-goal deficit into a victory following goals from Anthony O’Connor and Dean Cornelius. Manager Simon Weaver said:

“The reaction was brilliant. We got right on the front foot and it was a strong response. “It showed the spirit and character that we have got because the least we deserved was a point.”
