Jones' exit comes amid a great deal of change for the Welsh side's stadium. Hollywood stars Rob McElhenney and Ryan Reynolds' club are set to take ownership of the Racecourse Ground after the Wrexham Football Supporter’s Society Limited accepted their proposal to surrender the lease. The news means Wrexham can expand the stadium.
WHAT STEVE JONES SAID
"Devastated to say I am no longer associated with [Wrexham]," Jones posted on social media. "I have no further comment to make."
His post was followed by plenty of replies from Wrexham fans expressing their disappointment of the news.
