WREXHAM fans have been left furious with tickets to their clash versus Walsall sold out – but only to local fans.
The club, owned by Hollywood actors Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney, face The Saddlers at home on August 15.
It is their second home match back in League Two following last season’s promotion from the National League.
And in a potentially controversial move, the clash has been deemed “sold out for UK members”.
But there “are a small number of International Members Tickets still available for the game.”
Wrexham are growing in popularity in America due to their owners, the behind-the-scenes TV show following the club and the pre-season friendlies held in the US versus Chelsea and Manchester United.

Some fans are concerned the local community is being pushed aside for global success.
One said: “When a Wrexham FC Member living 9 miles away is unable to purchase a ticket but someone living 1000+ miles away may still purchase one then this should not be something you, as a club, should be pleased with.”
Another added: “The ticketing system is an absolute shambles.”
A third admitted: “As an American fan this seems kind of f***ed. If there’s tickets left, sell them to people that want them most.”

Others disagreed with just 75 tickets being held for international supporters.
One wrote: “0.71 per cent of the overall capacity that’s it. Any unsold tickets will go to members anyway. Moaning for the sake of it, so tedious.”
Wrexham get their season underway versus MK Dons at the Racecourse Ground on August 5.
