Wrexham A.F.C. has taken a shot at rivals Southampton after confirmation of the Championship fixtures. The Welsh side is scheduled to play Southampton in September.

What happened?

Wrexham's media team made a not-so-subtle reference to Spygate alongside a photo of the fixture calendar in September. The caption read: "Taking us into the international break," with an emoji of a spy holding a magnifying glass.

Why it matters for Wrexham A.F.C.

This joke is a clear dig at Southampton, who were found guilty of covertly gaining insider information on Middlesbrough and other opponents throughout the season. As of 26 Jun 2026, Wrexham A.F.C. stands at 7th in the Championship with 71 points. | Category | Value | | --- | --- | | League standing | 7th | | Points | 71 | | Recent form | DLWWL |

What comes next?

Southampton were handed a four-point deduction in the Championship for next season and were expelled from the play-off final. The Saints have announced that they are appealing the decision, but have since been told that all of the initial punishments have been upheld.
