  WHAT HAPPENED?

  The Red Dragons clinched promotion to League One after an emphatic 6-0 win over Forest Green Rovers on Saturday with jubilant fans spilling on to the STok Cae Ras pitch in celebration. One shot of the celebrations captured Mullin, arms aloft, taking in the supporters' adulation – a scene almost identical to that of last season when Wrexham won a historic promotion back to the Football League after a 15-year absence.

• WHAT PAUL MULLIN SAID

  Posting on Instagram, Mullin said: "The first time was so nice. We had to do it twice."

• THE BIGGER PICTURE

  The Liverpudlian was slow to get into his stride this season as he recovered from a horrific injury sustained in Wrexham's pre-season tour of America.

  But the striker was back to his irrepressible best when the business end of the season arrived, rattling off 13 goals in 11 games, including a goal which owner Rob McElhenney picked out as his favourite Mullin strike.

  With automatic promotion and the title in League Two already decided, Wrexham can play out their last two fixtures of a marathon season under no pressure whatsoever. The Red Dragons visit play-off contenders Crewe on Saturday before hosting champions Stockport County in their final game of the season the following weekend.
