The story behind Wrexham's Hollywood takeover | BBC Sport - Sport
The fans could've said no to Rob and Ryan buying the club, but they would not say no....because of the implication.
Top tier comment... It sounds like these fans are in danger?
Your not understanding. They would just never say no.... Because of the implication
so the fans are in danger?
@@DannyCosmos no, they are obviously not in any danger, but because of the implications they can't deny
@@aerotechsjcit15 Top tier shit post
10/10
They came in humble and sincere…a good start 👍
One year later: Welcome to League Two!
Now League one 😳😳
They want to understand English football and the history of the club so they get my respect because they are trying to rebuild a club that deserves investment and owners that love the club .
Wrexham is in Wales, not England.
@@Mag7Music you’re right but I think he means the English league system pal
@@Mag7Music Wales sorry bro
@@dominicclarke7875 still not entirely wrong, they are still in the english football league system so nothing really to apologise for.
They want to understand English football so they buy a welsh club ?
Yeah sounds like Americans 😂
And they did it Congratulations!!!. Well done on your promotion!!!!
It’s always sunny in Wrexham, love that.
I am so happy for the people of Wrexham. Great partnerships are developing as this community embraces the a new generation of hope, purpose, prosperity, love and some great frigging football to be viewed worldwide. Keep going. You are all heading in the right direction. ☮️
A new Wrexham fan from Australia.
Congrats on promotion !! Cant wait to see whats coming in the future ahead. Great story.
Watching after they got promoted to Legue 2
The Red Army and It's Always Sunny In Wrexham sign is so good!
Now thats a Football Manager - Journeyman i would like to follow.
Been my main save this year. Successive promotions up to the Championship where I'm now in for a 2nd season. Some of the most fun I have had with the game in a long while.
i'm suprised ryan reynolds , didn't pick another club , him playing wade wilson ( deadpool ) , surley he should hav invested in ACCRINGTON STAN LEE !
Accrington Stan Lee? Who are they..??
There's lots of similarities between Notts County and Wrexham with previous past owners screwing up with massive Histories and falling into the abyss of the national league, At the start he said Wrexham is a special club being the worlds third oldest professional club , well Notts are the oldest Professional club , both clubs need to be back into League football .
Now they are,so congratulations to both,and I think both are likely to do very well in their first season back in the Football League. Wrexham may be helped by three of their first four matches being at the Racecourse Ground as they play host to the Milton Keynes Dons in their first match back,then travel to Wimbledon before home games against Walsall and Swindon.
I’ll never get over how random this is
Some might call it destiny
It’s not random at all, think of it from a business point of view not a footballing. I’m sick of having to constantly explain this to people
@@gezdodd8370 I think the plan is to invest a bit of money into the club, trying to get them to for example the Championship. And then sell on the club for a big profit
@@graaficss5231 I don’t even think it’s about selling for profit, more so increasing the value of Wrexham & it’s assets. They don’t need to make a few million profit.
@@TomWxm You always want more money if you’re rich
Ok, I am now am a Wrexham fan, I feel like I know the players more than any other team after watching the documentary. What an amazing story, I think any club in any league would be honoured to have chairman like Ryan & Rob.
Started watching the series. Love Rob & Ryan, fell in love with Wrexham. Support them all the way.
I'm an American, Notts County fan. Good chance Notts will face Wrexham in the playoffs. If Notts don't go up (Wrexham still is very much within shouting distance of being #1, as Stockport have a tough run in to end the season), I hope Wrexham do.
This aged horribly
Wow. May i know what starts for you to support Notts County?
loved the tv show and i hope they get to where they want to with the club. I look out for their results every weekend now.
It's always sunny in Wrexham
I am crying 😢 so emotional. So worthy
We're on our way to the football league 🔴⚪
If you haven't watched "Welcome To Wrexham" - please do! It's a wonderful story. You'll laugh and cry! I hope there is a season 2!
It was amazing to the point i am a fan of the club i have it saved on my football app on my phone and i am not even walesh or English. And my main fav team is Real madrid and i wait for this matches as if iam watching los blancos
@@gsxii1292 😊 Maybe because I'm Canadian and so is Ryan is part of the reason I enjoyed it. I too, love football, usually Manchester U. I mainly watch during Word Cup
@@Luna.3.3.3 football is amazing i watch almost all real Madrid games and i watch alot of premier league as well but now i am interested in this team due to” bring up the deadpan and rob maclehny “ Man utd is a decent club too maybe watch champions league it is way more competitive i think then the World Cup
@@gsxii1292 Yes, I think you're right, EPL can be more exciting than World Cup because the top teams have PAID for top talent! When it's available, I watch Bundesliga. I think, now, I might look into seeing if there are any Wrexham games to watch. They're still in a very low league, I doubt it will be televised.
There's so much gossip about Ronaldo and Messi now, it's going to be crazy
@@Luna.3.3.3 EPL and Uefa champions league can be the most exciting things to watch ever. I think u can watch wrexham on the internet most of the time i find the matches online on some obscure sites cz i live outside of Europe at the moment and lower leagues aren’t televised there. Bundisleaga I haven’t watched in a while my fav wad Dortmund there. Messi and CR7 are the goats but i am cr7 fan cz i am a madridista
Cant wait to see PSG in Wrexham!
We will batter PSG
@@m_wxm7950 only in the car park with baseball bats..but good luck on your journey
@@Themedusatouch89 what’s a PSG? Some tin pot club anyway
@@m_wxm7950 I'm not a PSG fan but this comment is a little too daring. 😂
i like how the interviewed fan is hopeful yet pragmatic..
I'm currently trying to take a now no longer extinct Stockbridge team from Vanarama South to Premier....3rd season now.....I just sold one of my players to Wrexham....Awesome to see them try and do it in real life....It's going to take 10-20 years but I love that the club has a chance...
They need to build a top class youth facility and be like Ajax.....they can sell those players off and make money back to further support the club....Will take a while though.
oh, for the love of god, don't turn it into another farmhouse and become donors for the rich... it might get you steady income but not the glory. It's such a sad way to run a club.
As an Ajax fan, I can say that it can be a really good policy to run your club. To develop youth players and success can go hand in hand (as Ajax proves many times in the past). The revenue from selling youth players can be re-invested in better players which can speed up the chance for success and it gives also economic stability. I love English football, especially the football teams in the lower leagues and I wish Wrexham all the best.
New favourite team = Wrexham FC
It's a brilliant story
Magic time are a coming what a time to be alive
Wrexham till I die can't wait till Saturday where 9 and a half thousand are packed into the cae ras coyr
A truly inspiring club... very proud of you all.. wrexham fc... history belongs to you. ⚽️⚽️🥅 It is happening.
Bet there's a movie coming...
what'd be hilarious is if Charlie or Glen bought a rical team with another actor lol
OK hands up, who hurt Colin? He's got some trust issues for sure.
Sounds like a Minnesota sports fan
There are more than enough of horrible international owners who have toyed with and destroyed clubs that means extremely much for the local community. It’s quite natural to be worried when your beloved club is being taken over by outsiders.
What's Ralf Rangnick doing at Wrexham!
Atta boy Mac!
Wrexham 🔴🏴
I'm glad you got your club back
@@dominicclarke7875 thank you mate 🙌
@@m_wxm7950 enjoy brother 🖤❤️🙏🏾👊🏾
@@dominicclarke7875 🙌🤝🤝🤝
And now they're only 1 league from the championship league. Indeed, it does seem like a fairytale.
Go Birds 🦅
Best club in world
Then why do you have old Trafford stadium on your profile ?

They have a lot of heart, but not really, no...
You beat Bristol city? As a Bristol city fan, thats depressing to here, you and every other team in the first 3 leagues.

@@jamess.1006 You gave them a third degree Burn! 🔥
They can't leave you high and dry, they're too famous, for that. BOOM that's how u do poems mothers layers.
Bootleggers home
Paying players like Paul Mullin £6k per week and can’t even beat Wealdstone or Yeovil 🤣
2nd in the league so cry some more mr green eyes 😂
@@danielroberts7776 That’s right, second to my team 🔵⚪️
We will do the double over you so it will make for a good documentary either way 😂
@@danielroberts7776 With all the money you’ve spent you should do, but County will be ready for the challenge 🔵⚪️
@@ianlord9585 hope so managed to get a ticket for the semi final like goldust around here to get lately and can’t commit to a season ticket 🙄
They spend millions and they still didn`t go up. 33 season and counting.
Get Arif Aiman from JDT to play in Wrexham ... Div 4 is an equal league to Malaysia Super League

@@saltney17 pahahahah😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 you still crying about our takeover?😂😂😂😂😂😂🏴🔴
Not Hollywood! Shamed on you. These two guys are far from Hollywood thank you.
They are high class home town boys. Not Hollywood bozos.
While, yes, they both were raised in cities that shaped their lives (Vancouver and Philadelphia), their careers were largely made in Hollywood, so the label is valid.
Still hollywood tho.
Of course Rob wanted to own a Scottish FC, Their flag is a giant bird!
Wales bro
wales is not Scotland
*cough* dragon *cough* (and it's not Scottish)
Nice plug for the scamdemic
😮😢😂😂Yes, the implications, Jeesus, think about those poor bastards😂😂. Getting their money back like 20 times and now they even have to work!! Imagine that😢The town is doing so well that people actually can afford to have babies again. Those evil owners😮😢😂😂
Just curious whats not a working class town thats like the basis for any town or city isnt it.... haha just sayim everyone says that and its just sports you wont die
