"Welcome to Wrexham" is so freaking good. I honestly enjoy the profiles of Wrexham town almost more than the games. The episode about the mining disaster was magnificent beyond words, and Wayne Jones is the best ambassador for the town. I would have never thought I would be following a Welsh football club from a tiny town in rural northwest Tennessee but I'm totally hooked!

When this happened I thought it was the dumbest stupidest idea and quite frankly I was annoyed by it, but I'm very very happy to be proven wrong. It's great to see them really throw themselves in mind, body, soul, and deep pockets and see the rewards. I'm sure they'll hit some roadblocks and hills along the way but it is a great sports story and happy for the people of Wrexham.

I don't begrudge Wrexham their new found good times as their recent history is similar to my own team. Wrexham were regular opponents for Carlisle in the lower leagues and both clubs suffered from under investment, going into administration and relegations. Enjoy league one next season hopefully we'll be back there too next year.

It'll be interesting to see where they go from here. There is a glass ceiling for clubs like Wrexham with owners like Ryan and Rob. To get to the Prem and stay in the Prem you need a whole other level of wealth. Oligarch levels of wealth. Second tier is probably as high as they'll be able to go.

Yeah, As seen with Luton Town getting into the Prem means absolutely nothing if you are just going to get dropped from it the first year you make it. The goal should never be to make the Prem. It should be to stay in the Prem. If Wrexham ends up being a perm middle of the table club in The Championship that would still be remarkable for a club that was stuck forever in the non efl leagues.

Might be difficult for American audiences to understand because their sports don't have promotion or relegation, but its not a fairytale. And not critcising Wrexham's owners, they seem genuine about their interest and have a good connection with the town and fans. (unlike some football club owners) But they basically did this by putting together a 3rd level team in the 5th level, then the 4th level. They had the biggest wage bill in both divisions. Short term, they bring in former top level players at the end of their careers eg. Foster, McLean. Yeah nothing is guaranteed and thats worked for them so far. League 1 is kind of where they should be but making that next step up? This might be diificult. They're not the big fish anymore. And also, for every club that gets promoted another goes down the other way. Just ask Tom Brady.

Bought Wrexham FC for 2.5 million, will probably sell it for 500+ million depending on how up the clubs climbs in promotion. All he does is win. Which kind of baffles me on the investment he made in Alpine. He better spend some money and get Newey or something. Maybe he’ll force a sale to Andretti racing.

This ain’t a “underdog” or “fairytale”. They put an massive amount of $. Other than back-to-back promotions would of been huge failure. But only a true fan would be aware of this, the casual fan who barely knows the rules would never know this. Don’t get me wrong, the people of whexham deserve this, and kudos to Reynolds and Rob, they’ve hired the right coaches and players to get the job done. The true test will begin next season, they going to face better teams with bigger history and better players. And like I said before, they had the upper hand against all competition. If they reach the Championship next year, then I’ll shut my mouth. 😂

It was originally called soccer in the UK and it carried over to the US. At some point ppl in the UK decided to sound more like the French so they started calling it football

It was only called "soccer" in the UK by people who played rugby, to distinguish it from rugby football, and rugby players have always been a small minority, so youre wrong there. It was called football by most people in England before France even knew what football was.

When did Wales stop being part of the UK? And they play in English football league. I’m a little tired of this Welsh, Scottish and Irish act of claiming they were oppressed people, when all these countries massively benefited from colonialism and slavery. You guys were just as big oppressors as the English, so you Celtic guys need to stop playing oppression card, when you were some of the most oppressors of the British Empire. There is hugely popular film in the UK called Zulu, about Welsh soldier invading African countries killing Africans and stealing their land and resources and the movie made it out like Welsh soldiers were the heroes of the movie. the Welsh are like the white women of oppression, you can claim you were oppressed while being an oppressor.

It’s not an underdog story😂😂. It’s called financial doping for profit. We’ll see if they sell the club with a huge profit and in the good graces of the all the people in 10 years. This is a business for them. Sure they care about the town and people. But why that town? Why that club? No prior affiliation. They chose a club which could generate enormously good pr and profit when they use their money and influence to grow the club and take them up to the ranks. The amount of money they spend is like being the only cyclist in the tour the France taking massive amounts of phd’s and doing so legally. Insane how people clammer to this story. It’s like winning the lottery and telling everyone ur a self made millionaire. The man city of the lower leagues. Only they knew how to dope within the rules.
