It is not only on the clubs’ official accounts that there has been interaction.
Supporters of each side have had a fair bit to say about the other on social media ever since Wrexham’s promotion from League One meant they would be in the same division for the first time since 2002-03.
Back then, it was Swansea who were really struggling, as they only avoided relegation to non-league on the final day of the season. Wrexham, meanwhile, were promoted that year.
But the clubs’ respective fortunes were to change dramatically. Swansea went from the fourth tier in 2005 to the Premier League in 2011 and then spent seven seasons at the highest level, winning the 2013 League Cup along the way.
Wrexham, by contrast, dropped out of the Football League in 2008, spending 15 painful years away before Phil Parkinson delivered the first of three successive promotions in 2022-23.
With Reynolds and Mac leading the way, the Red Dragons have passed Newport County and Cardiff City during a thrilling climb up the divisions.
Now comes a chance to assert themselves as Wales’ leading club side, a position Wrexham most recently held – at the end of a season at least – in 2001.
“Swansea had their meteoric rise, they had the ‘Swansea way’, they got to the Premier League and then they were a good Championship team,” former Wrexham striker and manager Andy Morrell says.
“Now they have had a few changes of manager. It seems to be becoming a bit harder for them to maintain what they have done and it feels like Wrexham are catching up with them a little bit.”
