Wrexham are just two wins from reaching the quarter-final in the FA Cup – matching their club record from 27-years-ago.

And McElhenney felt it was his duty to make sure one fan did not miss out on the game.

A Canadian fan account reached out to the 46-year-old to “provide a sick note” so he could tune into Wrexham’s FA Cup draw.

The It’s Always Sunny Philadelphia actor wrote a note that said: “To whom it may concern, @WrexhamCanada is hereby excused from work on Monday, January 29, 2024.

“They have a weird cough or something. If that’s not enough of an excuse, let’s go with the flu.

“Wouldn’t you hate to catch it if they showed up to work in that condition?

“They are cleared to come back on Tuesday, January 30, 2024. Oh, I think that happens to be the day after the Wrexham match. Weird timing. Best wishes, Dr. McElhenney.”

McEIhenney jokingly ended the note with: “Don’t Google my credentials, just trust me. I’m a real doctor.”

Monday night’s FA Cup fourth-round clash is set to kick off at 7:30pm at Ewood Park.

But for the fan, if he or she lives in the bustling cities of Toronto or Montreal this would be 2:30pm.

However, if @WrexhamCanada lives further on the West Coast, like in Vancouver, the kick-off time will be even earlier for them.
