[@joshlanda1756]

The fact that 2 non football people let alone celebrities can just buy a club, and fall in love with the game and be better owners then most top tier clubs in the sense of actually caring for the city and players and actually wanna grow it is insane to me still this is how you run a club

[@lilywhitefi]

Couldn’t agree more as a Spurs fan right now - I’d give anything to have owners that give a shit

[@jc3drums916]

Most people with the kind of money to buy a top tier club are sociopaths. At best, they're going to be owners who throw a lot of money at the club because they want to be able to brag about having a winning club, but they don't actually care about the fans or the community.

[@warlorddk2070]

Never understood why its called non-league when its litterally a league 😂

[@ieuanwilding5993]

​@@warlorddk2070 it's because the top 4 tiers of English football is known as the professional league and everything outside of that is semi pro. How ever in the National League the growing number of clubs that have been in the EFL prior to being in the daldrum of non league football is concerning. Oldham are a former Premier League club and are in the National League. 4 teams go up from league 2 whilst only 2 go down. This needs to be addressed cause as we have seen this season, Wrexham and notts county have been by far the best teams in that division yet notts county may possibly miss out. I sincerely hope that isn't the case because both clubs deserve to be in the EFL after the season they have both had

So proud as an American of our celebrity owners and what they were able to accomplish in a few short years.

I genuinely do think these guys will get them to the premier league… I know it may sound like a reach, but the things they are doing in the community, to the ground and with the squad and manager they are just doing everything right…

[@paulsmith7051]

Well we've been as high as the championship in the late 70's early 80's and that's only one promotion from the premiership. It's possibly the infrastructure that takes longer to build the kop won't be open until season after next if we go up next season, immediately they are gonna have to look at further ground capacity and so playing catch up again. A training ground is still in the pipeline and will need to have room for future proofing. I think we could well get out of League 2 within 2 seasons. League one top end I'd say is around our level, getting promoted to the championship would mean then playing against some very big teams. If we got there and could hold our own, that would be amazing ... Just one promotion then from the holy grail. We dare to dream

[@ericbrown1101]

Yeah I don't know how they convinced everyone it actually wasn't a farce with the documentary cameras everywhere from day 1 and Reynolds constantly sounding like he's in character as Deadpool 😂. But yeah to the previous person's point, I don't think them going all the way is crazy. I think this team would be immediately competitive with the top of League Two as it sits right now. Once they get to League One, I think there'd have to be more significant changes and by the Championship I think they'd need additional investment. But it's absolutely possible. Weren't Leicester in League One or something like 10-15 years ago?

[@mjf9295]

In 2018, Coventry City and Luton Town were both in League 2. On Saturday, one of them will be promoted to the Premier League. It's very achievable for Wrexham as long as they have good leadership 😉

I said it before and I‘ll say it again. It‘s not just Wrexham, it‘s not just Wales. The show managed to perfectly capture the passion and love people have for this sport and that‘s why it resonates so well globally. Combined with these two beautiful people, this show and this club and this season especially have done so incredibly much for football in general and for fans all around the world. It’s really almost impossible to not be a fan of Wrexham AFC these days. I just hope they can keep this up next season and the one after and maybe, just maybe actually make it to the premier league. Though that, I think, will be a lot harder than the two of them are imagining now. Up the town!

Lots and lots of ‘something in my eye’ moments for me, during that interview! When I was a kid, my first season was the old Third Division season and the promotion to the Second Division. That was it for me, forty five years later it’s the same for any new fans, and kids too, enjoying the recent promotion season. I’ve got no greed in me, in home life nor for Wxm, I’m just grateful we are back in League 2. That’s already enough! Rob and Ryan have already done so much for the community, and the club, and fans, it’s already pure gold, job done. I’m happy if we are just trundling along in L2, so long as we never go down to NL again. Seriously. And yet, listening to the guys again here, they’re so focused, enthusiastic, and dreaming of more promotions in the next decade or two. If so, then it’s just beyond the wildest dreams of old fans like me. Bring it on, for sure. We hope for more success, but expect nothing. I’m just so grateful for what Rob and Ryan have done for the club, fans, town, and beyond. ❤❤❤

[@traderbean-btc485]

As a Swansea supporter i wanna say congrats Wrexham! Youve got yourself a pair of proper good boyos there. LFG! See you on the pitch in a few seasons!

[@shadytube84]

Ultimate respect to these two legends… restores your faith that not all ‘celebrities’ are self absorbed cunts totally disconnected from reality!! I think it’s safe to say that Wrexham have now become everyone’s second team!!

[@lovelyskull3483]

I love the interviewers Welsh accent. I have fallen in love with Wrexham.🇨🇦

[@EclipseGP1233]

Congratulations Wrexham on the promotion! Now since the team is League Two, ESPN+ in the United States has the rights to EFL League Two so that means I can watch at home now. Yay!

[@CMWargames]

That’s awesome to owners with heads screwed on properly. What a wonderful journey and story for Wrexham the club and the town

[@anthonyuchello2031]

I suppose the next step, if they don't already have them in place, is to establish men's and women's football academies to develop their talented youth.

[@paulsmith7051]

That area will now be funded from the league, whereas in the national League the club's have to fund them themselves and young players can be poached for no fee. It's why this area of the club fell behind under fan ownership, as much was going into the first team to try and be competitive.

[@brianeleighton]

@@paulsmith7051 The League doesn't actually fund the Academies of the various clubs in the pyramid. The Football League does provide money to the clubs but it is for their share of broadcast rights and merchandising as well as the payment given by the Premier League for a share of its broadcast deal. Clubs are responsible for funding their own Academies but you are right on the second point. A league club can poach any talented youngster from a non-league club for zero fee. For a fan owned club with limited resources it made absolutely zero sense to maintain their Academy infrastructure because any player with talent would get stolen for free.

So much love for these 2 from a derby fan 🤍🖤

[@Pecker2002]

Outstanding. Especially when we realize this is just the beginning.

[@yappygm7433]

Congrats to the Red Dragons! As an aside, it's awesome to see Maxine again

[@annemacleod1421]

Essentially, this is about community development. Both Rob and Ryan appear to understand this, that the community, it’s people, it’s leadership, must direct and determine the goals and direction of the town and football club. Not too actors from LA! Well done to Wrexham. This is such a story of hope. 🐑🐑🇳🇿🇳🇿NZ

[@mcraw4d]

Love how when she asked about players they both immediately deferred to Phil. They and Humprhrey have all said the day they start voicing “football” decisions they’re doomed. Hopefully that sentiment never changes.

[@suzannezoubeck5216]

GO WREXHAM!!! Great interview. From someone who is not much of a sports fan of any sort, and didn't know who Rob McElhenney was before watching the Wrexham tv show (but now am a fan of Wrexham...men's and women's teams...and just love to pieces both Rob and Ryan...though already fell in love with Ryan after seeing Deadpool 1 & 2 and looking forward to #3). Would love to visit Wales/Wrexham someday and see a game. I hope there will be contests in the states at some point to win a trip to Wales and go see a game (and that I win it of course!). ❤☮🌎

[@Richardturpentine]

Two brilliant human beings 👍🏻 Thank you

[@kivimik]

I hope that the women's team will be featured in the docu-series.

[@rawpotatofella9654]

They should since they got promoted too

[@paulsmith7051]

It will most definitely in season 2 and rightly so. Look out for Mia Roberts, her dad Neil Roberts played for Wrexham. Local family all Wrexham fans too. I believe there will be a piece on them, Neil was mic'd up with a cameraman close by during the Racecourse game the women's team played against Connah's Quay. I was sat right behind his group. He's a cracking bloke by the way Wrexham through and through.

[@BruceLee1.0]

i think it would be more inspiring considering that the women were working class people and they were playing football as a hobby and still getting promoted

[@DIALSQUARE1]

by some distance the best foreign owners in UK Football !!!!!!

[@paulmunday2864]

Enjoyed welcome to Wrexham - didn't think it would become so popular how brave - can only put focus on bottom teams and hopefully some investment- and if anyone thinking about this have a look at Banbury

[@SJ-mw7sm]

The fact that these two can tell a story about a fifth tier club in a manner that gets people around the globe this invested in it is incredible. So how does someone in the US watch EFL2? I’m along for this journey.

[@EclipseGP1233]

And ESPN+

[@PepsiMaGs]

So wonderful to see her smile for once! ❤
