Wrexham Association Football Club (Clwb Pêl-droed Wrecsam, nicknamed The Red Dragons, or more traditionally, The Robins, their previous nickname) are a professional football team based in Wrexham, north-east Wales, who play in the English Football League pyramid. Founded in 1872, they are one of the oldest surviving football clubs in the UK and are the oldest professional club in Wales. They currently play in the Conference National following their relegation from Football League Two at the end of 2007–08 after 87 years of consecutive membership, and are hoping to gain promotion back to Football League Two at the first time of asking. The fifth tier of the English football league system, also known as the Conference National or Blue Square Premier, is the lowest level of competition that Wrexham have played in since they were first elected to the football league in 1921. During Wrexham's existence they have been known as a team that have been capable of going on cup runs that belie their traditionally lowly league position. They are 23-time winners and 22-time runners up of the Welsh Cup and are also 5 time winners of the FAW Premier Cup, which allowed them regular entries into European football competitions, where they carried out many famous giant killings. They also won the LDV Vans Trophy during the 2004/05 season. They have also reached the quarter finals of the FA Cup three times and the League Cup quarter finals twice. During the 1991/92 season, they also reached the quarter finals of the European Cup Winners Cup, before being knocked out by the eventual winners Manchester United. (via Wikipedia)
