Bienvenidos al Wrexham Football Club

Didn't know what this was all about but I like rob and Ryan so I thought I'd take a look. Have you seen what's on tv now, scripted reality, stupid tv. I can't even watch most of it. I started watching the science channel for something good. Then I watched this and I saw the heart and soul of so many people, real people and I was hooked. The heart. And the should of all the people was awesome , nothing scripted here. I love the fact hey have to subtitle the welsh people so the Americans can understand them. So far everyone has been upbeat by all the people, REAL PEOPlE!! So wish Ryan and bob the best and I will watch every episode .

I know it's early but I can't stress enough how pleasantly surprised I am at how good this documentary is thus far. The tone of the documentary is set from the very beginning, you all may think that just because the football club is owned by individuals like Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mcelhenney that the documentary will have a silly tone, don't get me wrong it has it's silly moments but they're few and far between. The seriousness of the situation is really driven home by the documentary. I can't wait to see more!

Just finished episode 6 and enjoying this show more and more each week. The way they've been unfolding the story, sharing the history and the love from the community. To the touches of Ryan and Rob bringing in the Cinderella touch. Its just heart warming and beautiful. I love feel good sports movies, but this has something real about it that draws you in even more than the "Remember the Titans" or "Coach Carter" movies did.

I'm not even a football fan, I'll watch the world cup but thats about it. But this is making me wanna buy a Wrexham jersey and become a supporter.

When I was a little girl I loved soccer and loved Wrexham. As time went on my tastes changed and soccer wasn't so important.

However, my interest was piqued when it was reported Wrexham AFC was bought by these two guys . However, my concern, on learning they were going to make it into a documentary, was it was going to be of interest to them only for that reason. I'm hoping I'm wrong.

So far I have loved this more than expected and I'm rooting for Wrexham again. There's a little too much effing and jeffing for my taste as I would have liked to seen this being suitable for all ages. But, Rob seems very emotionally invested while Ryan does strike me as being a bit more of the business side of things and as a monetary investment for him.

Still, the best part its it is not being patronising or mean to the Welsh people, seeing the Welsh language featured so prominently is particularly pleasing. And best of all, it feels real and not staged.

I wonder if Ryan and Rob have looked into seeing if they have Welsh links on a personal level. Rob, in particular, as there are many Welsh links in Pennsylvania. Bryn Mawr is a welsh name and many West Walians went over and the towns of Narberth and Haverford(west) are in both Pembrokeshire and Pennsylvania.

Anyway, looking forward to the rest of the series.

This is a rare show. Interesting, funny, moving, authentic and above all heartfelt. It may surprise people to know this is much less about Reynolds and McElhenney and more about a community, a forgotten part of the UK, local characters and a football (soccer) set-up that is immensely likeable (when compared with the grossed-out British Premier League). That is not to say that Ryan Reynolds' renowned wit doesn't pepper the series, but it's not the main course.

This could so easily have been a goofed-up Disney show full of scripted laughs, but it's far from it. Instead we see the Hollywood stars build a genuine empathy and passion that infects an entire town. The real stars are in Wales and they won't have previously have an IMBD back history. You should watch it.
