Humphrey Ker: Ryan Reynolds and Rob McEclhenney were "like two fairy godfathers" ⚽️

[@Red_Snappa]

Humphrey - what a guy! Every interview about the show is like groundhog day for him, but he never looks pissed off or irritated about having to explain the story over & over & over again. He just rolls it out every time, almost word for word. Yes it's in his job as the frontman of the club I know, but it would do my nut in _personally_ . I wish there was 'Skip Intro' button ala Netflix etc, to jump to the interviewers actual questions....is the story of what's going on at the club even _needed_ anymore? Unless you've been living under a rock for the last 3yrs I guess... 🤷‍♂

[@aroberts8127]

I've said it before and I'll say it again.... I love listening to Humphrey Ker and thank him for everything he has done / is doing for my football club and Hometown.

[@francisco_tomas]

Humphrey is a genuine a good guy.

[@gbin99]

I read Master and Commander as a young man and will not remember it by now, time to reread it thank you for that. 'Up The Town!'

[@joannefairclough7960]

I couldn't have said it better myself! Indeed HUMPHREY is "Joy(ful) in a world gone mad!" Great interview! I didn't know of Humphrey's naval historical novel nerd-ship and it just makes him even more interesting and endearing. He is such a wonderful, valued, eloquent and instrumental part of this ongoing fabulous story!

[@danielbrown9368]

If the Wrexham AFC endeavor were a movie, Humphrey would be it's Narrator. He is the viewers lens into the story.

[@roystevenson9632]

Sir Ker has a certain ring to it, love this guy for what he has done for my home town and the community of Wrexham.

[@DS9TREK]

Sir Humphrey. It goes before the Christian name

[@bigdudeps]

Master and commander! Such a masterpiece thank you HK.

[@familydinner1]

Best ambassador / executive any club could ask for! What a legend. Build the 11 foot tall statue.

[@LOSTshowfan]

Nice to have an interviewer who is up to speed on the show. Plus, book recs! Love HK.

[@inshallamiami]

Fantastic interview, so Humphrey Ker’s dad is Irish? No wonder I liked him 😆

[@kiriakoz]

He’s had the Irish beaten out of it by public school.

[@Spookieham]

​@@kiriakozbullshit if he was brought up in the UK he would never have an Irish accent. You get your accent from your environment not your parents.

[@kiriakoz]

@@Spookieham exactly, he has a posh British accent. Are you deaf?

[@spryonederonin3645]

I love that Jack and Stephen think all is right in the world when are playing music together in the series.

[@GarryShields-d8z]

Mate your a great interviewer...well done from Australia

[@jonronton]

Love Humphrey, seems like a regular guy. Speaks eloquently and sensibly.

[@ArmyofLove]

This story is massively impacting the football league. I heard somewhere that a pub was having 100 american visitors a day at times.

[@backatcha00]

Great interview.

[@odonovan]

3:25 - "...albeit the Welsh government has been great to us, and as has the local council." (As the club gets roadblocks thrown in front of them by the council, as they try to get the permits issued so construction can begin on the permanent Kop stand.) Riiiiiiiiiiight.

[@sasanachmor]

Mythic Quest is great

[@robertmacfann8740]

I agree Football (Soccer) and of course food brings people from diverse cultures together.

[@jonisilk]

I was totally one of the nerds that rubbed my hands together when you brought up Roman Consuls.

[@GoldenKaos]

“Jack, you have debauched my sloth!”

[@WILLIAM1690WALES]

Fair play to your extremely sophisticated narrative of the plight of Northeast Wales, pretty much in my humble opinion, as I deem it to be reflective of what I have experienced myself?

[@reyvagabond3344]

We need to comvice that these man do a master and commander movie or Netflix series they have the talent and the passion for the project.

[@theheist17]

More Master and Commander chat please

[@emu8435]

I was just waiting for Ryan to ask Humphrey if he ever goes down to the Woodsend pub

[@daftgowk1]

First comment, love the show guys and the Welshies are a fine bunch

[@Mark13091961]

‘Welshie’ ... hmmm, well its better than sheepshagger!

[@temujanradari1105]

4 circumnavigations, well done good sir!

[@jpr3665]

HK is all class

The Treble is right around the corner.

[@rileynobles7146]

I have not read the books but I love Master and Commander. My wife just can't get it and I don't understand why. Why is there a minority of people that get it?

[@mikedown1250]

Why is it called a dressing room? ohhh because of all the acting on the pitch. At school it was called a changing room.

[@adaoraelliott9254]

Because they get dressed...

[@JoshuaHopkins-j9o]

The propaganda part of the Wrexham story (meaning the show) is top tier... and I genuinely mean that as a compliment. It hits all the right notes at the right times... but something like that can't really be manufactured properly... it has to be organic. Combining it with real world "on field" success... and a massive community turnout for support... it is quite the epic sports fairytale type situation. Good interview

[@chrissm-kp3hv]

All this is “Moneyball” in football/soccer style for their great success!!! Go Red dragons!!!!

[@od9694]

It's the opposite of moneyball they are by far tge richest club in league

[@chrissm-kp3hv]

@@od9694 have you even seen the movie? The whole movie? Let’s see.. time will tell …

[@od9694]

@@chrissm-kp3hv yes I've seen the film and read the book, oakland as didn't have the money to match other MLB teams so they statistical analysis to pick out undervalued players, wrexham have had by far the largest wage bill in there leagues for 3 years now, Paul mullin, Palmer and James McLean are all very expensive, they haven't picked out any undervalued players

[@paulgee1952]

Hit the nail on head over post industrial decline . U.S Reagan and U.K Thatcherite economics have created a widening class gulf, because replacing high skilled , better paid* work with low paid and insecure zero hours call center work is not providing. Nor is the financial bubble generating the wealth in the SE of England providing the taxes required to ensure needs services . Trickle down economics failure 101. In the U.S there is land and opportunity to basically abandon entire cities and start again from scratch , ghost towns in the rust belt , the UK does not have that luxury, nor the luxury of having culture war between Liberal middle class thinking and Capitalist Tory upper class thinking, to solve the problems created by economic mismanagement. For socialism (moderate) to be in control , will still take decades to restore the imbalance, and people not sold on the lies that stock market gambling, and property restriction inflation, is a safe future for all.

[@Spookieham]

Yeah because socialism has worked everywhere it has been implemented comrade

[@aidanmargarson8910]

Co Regents .. now we are in the middle ages ..

[@viperswhip]

Congratulations on retreading information that has been stated many times over in other interviews and also Welcome to Wrexham.

[@rerun3283]

Not everyone has seen everything you have seen.

[@markballard9942]

I have heard it all before, too. But I still love hearing it from Humphrey Ker.
