Made an account just to rate S2: E10 - 10/10. Unreal
Same as title. Moved. Completely. The episode "Gresford" from Season 2 of "Welcome to Wrexham" was a poignant look into the mining history of the region, specifically focusing on the Gresford Disaster. Utilising archival footage and intimate interviews, the episode offered an emotional and humanising tribute to the miners and their families. Excellent cinematography and sound design added to the episode's authenticity and impact. This wasn't just compelling television; it was a deeply moving social document that captured the resilience and spirit of the Wrexham community. Seriously motivating and beautiful.
Where can I buy Wrexham AFC merch? I just became a fan!
Just wow. This series takes you into the lives of everyone involved and makes you actually experience what they go through. This is absolutely incredibly well done and cannot wait to see the team climb higher and higher up the pyramid.
Ryan and Rob have done an amazing job building this doc-series and do not let us down. The score is perfect, the special effects are amazing, almost makes you wonder if the scenes were reshot. If you are a Ted Lasso fan, this will blow your mind.
If you are an emotion-roller-coaster junkie, I do suggest you wait for the entire season to be released, as the cliffhanger will kill you.
Well done boys, now go get 'em!

This show has real heart and the story makes you a club supporter
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.

True grit
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.

Awesome ( from a 51 year old lifelong supporter)
Maybe I'm a little biased because I live in wrexham (and I'm a season ticket holder) and i live about a mile from the stadium as the crow flies and can see it from my bedroom , but the show is great . 2020 was a strange year for all but when news broke about the takeover and it was all a bit surreal and people genuinely thought that someone taking the piss . However , here we are ....... my biggest fear was that we were going to be made to look like idiots and it would be a bit of a piss take . However, less than 12 months into the takeover is was more than obvious to us fans than these 2 were deadly serious and put their money where their mouth is so to speak and they were doing the things that any football fan would expect or wish for from new chairmen and the documentary was gonna reflect this . The show is brilliant to be fair . Its not all about Ryan and Rob as some might have expected but also about the characters in and around the club.
Similar to that feeling when your kid learns to ride a bike, or when they win their first egg and spoon race I was absolutely proud as punch of the way the club was presented to the world . This is a big deal for a club our size in our league. In fact I'd go as far as to say that the publicity of takeover and subsequent documentary would be the envy of pretty much every football club around world. Even if football is not your thing , the story that has been created here is absolutely first class and unlike other sports documentary, it's not a sneaky peek at just the team but it's the whole nine yards . I'm sure the rest of the season/series will have it's ups and downs and I know how it ends in real life but the story coming will amaze everyone I'm sure . We'll done fx well done Rob and Ryan well done wrexham fc . Our time has come.
