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.

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.

What a great show. I love how they integrated Rob. I didn't expect to get as emotionally involved as I thought I would. Definitely going to keep watching.
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 .
