Would you like to inspect the original subtitles? These are the user uploaded subtitles that are being translated:
1
00:00:09,009 --> 00:00:10,907
There's
a fucking belief about us
2
00:00:11,045 --> 00:00:13,254
because everyone
will start thinking
we're promoted now, won't they?
3
00:00:13,392 --> 00:00:16,085
You know what I mean?
I You know And I'm convinced
after that Burton game.
4
00:00:16,223 --> 00:00:18,501
So we're gonna block
all that out.
We don't get carried away,
5
00:00:18,639 --> 00:00:23,126
we keep our feet on
the fucking ground, and we get
ready for fucking war.
6
00:00:23,264 --> 00:00:26,405
With just five games
remaining in the season,
7
00:00:26,543 --> 00:00:29,270
we take a big step forward
towards that dream
8
00:00:29,408 --> 00:00:31,686
of back-to-back-to-back
promotions.
9
00:00:32,273 --> 00:00:34,724
Going back to the beginning
of the season, we were picked,
10
00:00:34,862 --> 00:00:39,591
based on almost every opinion,
to be, hopefully, mid-table.
11
00:00:39,729 --> 00:00:41,834
I think
they'll miss out this year.
12
00:00:41,972 --> 00:00:44,354
Couple of years in League One.
It's got to be
a slow progression.
13
00:00:44,492 --> 00:00:47,116
It's very true.
It's a very difficult league.
It's a big jump for us.
14
00:00:47,254 --> 00:00:48,738
- The jump
- Might be too big.
15
00:00:48,876 --> 00:00:50,636
might be too big this year.
16
00:00:50,774 --> 00:00:53,225
I think everybody had, um,
17
00:00:53,363 --> 00:00:54,985
measured expectations.
18
00:00:55,124 --> 00:00:57,471
As long as
we escape relegation,
I'll be happy.
19
00:00:57,609 --> 00:01:00,991
A lot of people say
consolidation this season.
20
00:01:01,130 --> 00:01:03,615
There was
a lot of talk of consolidation.
21
00:01:03,753 --> 00:01:05,306
You need to settle in
for a while,
22
00:01:05,444 --> 00:01:07,998
figure out what you need to do
to get to the next level.
23
00:01:08,137 --> 00:01:11,105
If I'm being honest,
I don't really know
what that word means.
24
00:01:11,554 --> 00:01:14,246
We just went all in and
25
00:01:16,421 --> 00:01:18,112
Marriott hits it!
26
00:01:18,250 --> 00:01:20,010
Wrexham are on the brink
of making history
27
00:01:20,149 --> 00:01:23,635
with a third straight promotion
now within touching distance.
28
00:01:23,773 --> 00:01:25,671
I'm believing now.
I am believing.
29
00:01:26,155 --> 00:01:29,503
They've really exceeded
expectations in this league.
30
00:01:29,641 --> 00:01:32,782
They are
on the brink of history,
back-to-back-to-back.
31
00:01:32,920 --> 00:01:34,680
It's difficult
to put into words
32
00:01:34,818 --> 00:01:36,165
- how hard that is.
- Come on!
33
00:01:36,303 --> 00:01:37,649
It's incredible.
34
00:01:38,339 --> 00:01:42,964
So with five games to go,
those measured expectations
have changed somewhat.
35
00:01:43,103 --> 00:01:45,070
- We're going up!
- Up the town.
36
00:01:45,208 --> 00:01:47,728
A lot of people think
we're gonna do it, aren't we?
The three in a row.
37
00:01:49,661 --> 00:01:51,525
Wrexham!
38
00:01:51,663 --> 00:01:54,873
It's expected because
that's what we've done
the two previous seasons.
39
00:01:55,011 --> 00:01:57,082
Town's going up!
Town's going up!
40
00:01:57,220 --> 00:02:02,536
Not only do you want to be
promoted again and make
history, you almost have to.
41
00:02:02,674 --> 00:02:03,847
Back-to-back-to-back!
42
00:02:03,985 --> 00:02:06,195
And then it gets
really fucking stressful.
43
00:02:06,333 --> 00:02:07,851
Back-to-back-to-back!
44
00:02:09,198 --> 00:02:12,511
Never been done before.
Town's going up.
45
00:02:13,478 --> 00:02:17,033
If I can't feel optimistic now,
I don't think football's
for me, to be honest.
46
00:02:17,516 --> 00:02:20,933
When you flash back to,
like, the club being 12 hours
away from going bust,
47
00:02:21,071 --> 00:02:22,556
the supporters just having to
rally around
48
00:02:22,694 --> 00:02:24,661
and people having to put
deeds up for their houses.
49
00:02:24,799 --> 00:02:26,767
Just stop for five minutes
50
00:02:26,905 --> 00:02:29,010
and think about what the
football club's gone through
in the last 30 years.
51
00:02:29,149 --> 00:02:32,324
We're five games away
from history, and the fans
get what they deserve.
52
00:02:33,187 --> 00:02:38,365
It's easy to get carried away,
of course,
but we've got to be careful
53
00:02:38,503 --> 00:02:41,506
because there's still
every possibility
that we could do a Wrexham.
54
00:02:42,092 --> 00:02:44,094
We've seen it so often
in the past where
55
00:02:44,716 --> 00:02:47,339
we'd snatch defeat
from the jaws of victory,
as they say.
56
00:02:47,477 --> 00:02:50,239
Five games, sitting pretty.
57
00:02:50,377 --> 00:02:53,518
At what point do you think
we'll Wrexham it?
58
00:02:58,937 --> 00:03:02,665
Welcome to
The Brick Community Stadium.
59
00:03:02,803 --> 00:03:07,739
Another big, big game
as Wrexham push on
to try and make history.
60
00:03:11,605 --> 00:03:15,471
With Birmingham
now promoted and effectively
champions elect,
61
00:03:15,609 --> 00:03:19,060
you know,
we're now in a direct fight
with Wycombe Wanderers
62
00:03:19,199 --> 00:03:21,787
for that last
automatic promotion place.
63
00:03:21,925 --> 00:03:24,652
We've also got to be conscious
of Stockport County
64
00:03:24,790 --> 00:03:26,723
and Charlton Athletic
behind us.
65
00:03:26,861 --> 00:03:29,623
With five games to go,
things are in our own hands.
66
00:03:29,761 --> 00:03:31,521
Wrexham! Wrexham! Wrexham!
67
00:03:31,659 --> 00:03:33,661
A little nervous,
yeah, I think you do
at this stage of the season,
68
00:03:33,799 --> 00:03:35,215
but I think
we've been used to it
over the last few years now.
69
00:03:35,353 --> 00:03:36,975
Wycombe right behind us.
70
00:03:37,113 --> 00:03:40,081
We've got to win pretty much
every game now to keep ahead.
71
00:03:40,806 --> 00:03:42,946
Fasten your seat belts
'cause, I tell you,
72
00:03:43,084 --> 00:03:45,432
Wrexham are gonna make
a lot of noise.
73
00:03:45,570 --> 00:03:48,020
Wrexham led out
by James McClean
74
00:03:48,158 --> 00:03:52,542
against his old club that
he served with distinction.
75
00:03:53,578 --> 00:03:55,787
And here we go, Wrexham
getting things underway.
76
00:03:55,925 --> 00:03:57,444
James dinking over the top.
77
00:03:57,582 --> 00:03:59,273
That's a good ball for Smith,
left channel.
78
00:03:59,411 --> 00:04:01,724
- Forced wide, flag goes up.
- Was that offside, Jonah?
79
00:04:01,862 --> 00:04:06,280
Matty James shapes the switch,
then pulls it to the left
and gets the path wrong.
80
00:04:06,418 --> 00:04:08,938
I see Paul Mullin is here
with the away fans.
81
00:04:09,076 --> 00:04:10,284
That's quite a surprise.
82
00:04:10,905 --> 00:04:13,322
Wrexham boxed in now,
Mellish feeding it back.
83
00:04:13,460 --> 00:04:17,498
Long-range shot
is a spectacular one,
and Okonkwo gets down.
84
00:04:17,636 --> 00:04:19,051
I think he had it covered.
85
00:04:19,189 --> 00:04:21,364
That's fucking nowhere near
fucking good enough.
86
00:04:21,502 --> 00:04:24,402
Smithy, second fucking best.
Longy, second best.
87
00:04:24,540 --> 00:04:26,680
Maxie, weak as piss
in that fucking challenge.
88
00:04:26,818 --> 00:04:30,753
Wigan away was a tough one
'cause we obviously
could have played better.
89
00:04:31,167 --> 00:04:33,618
Elliot Lee, good ball
to the edge of the area.
90
00:04:33,756 --> 00:04:36,379
Oh, and it went through
Fletcher's legs.
91
00:04:36,517 --> 00:04:37,863
Fucking hell!
92
00:04:38,001 --> 00:04:39,831
And that is that.
93
00:04:39,969 --> 00:04:42,765
Wigan have earned
a goalless draw
against Wrexham,
94
00:04:42,903 --> 00:04:47,079
and it looks like Wycombe
are going to win
with an injury time goal.
95
00:04:47,217 --> 00:04:50,669
We said one goal could
make all the difference,
96
00:04:50,807 --> 00:04:53,983
and Wrexham have dropped
two points here.
97
00:04:54,121 --> 00:04:56,226
Wycombe look like
they're gonna get the three.
98
00:04:56,365 --> 00:04:58,505
We gotta be fucking ready
if we're gonna get promotion.
99
00:04:58,643 --> 00:05:01,024
Well, forget promotion
if we're gonna fucking get
anything out of this game.
100
00:05:01,162 --> 00:05:05,408
Wigan was as bad
as I've seen us playing
in a long, long time.
101
00:05:05,546 --> 00:05:08,929
Dare I say a slight bit of
fatigue, complacency.
102
00:05:09,067 --> 00:05:10,689
I thought fatigue
was definitely a factor.
103
00:05:10,827 --> 00:05:13,105
I thought some of those players
looked pretty tired.
104
00:05:13,243 --> 00:05:15,418
What do you think about
Mullin being up at
the Wigan game there?
105
00:05:15,556 --> 00:05:18,041
I've known players
to come and watch Wrexham
after they'd left,
106
00:05:18,490 --> 00:05:21,321
but I've never known
a player to come
while he's still on the books.
107
00:05:21,459 --> 00:05:23,046
While he's under contract, yeah.
108
00:05:23,184 --> 00:05:25,566
You know, this must be
some friction somewhere.
109
00:05:27,396 --> 00:05:30,122
Welcome to
this massive, massive match.
110
00:05:30,260 --> 00:05:34,368
Wrexham at home
to Bristol Rovers, who are
fighting for their lives.
111
00:05:34,506 --> 00:05:38,372
Four matches left. The stakes
are exceptionally high.
112
00:05:38,510 --> 00:05:41,099
There's one point
between us and Wycombe, so
113
00:05:41,237 --> 00:05:43,032
I feel more nervous
than ever now.
114
00:05:43,170 --> 00:05:44,240
Squeaky bum time now, innit?
115
00:05:44,378 --> 00:05:45,586
Squeaky bum, I think, innit?
116
00:05:45,724 --> 00:05:47,243
- Squeaky bum time.
- It is squeaky bum time.
117
00:05:47,623 --> 00:05:51,178
So, the Good Friday game,
we're at home
to Bristol Rovers,
118
00:05:51,316 --> 00:05:52,800
and Mr. McElhenney's in town.
119
00:05:52,938 --> 00:05:55,493
Okay, here we go.
I'll get down to my spot.
120
00:05:55,631 --> 00:05:58,254
Wrexham are always
favorite for home games
121
00:05:58,392 --> 00:06:00,325
and particularly when
we're second in the league.
122
00:06:00,463 --> 00:06:04,294
Yet, you know,
we have to make sure that
we do what everybody expects
123
00:06:04,433 --> 00:06:06,124
and pick up
another three points.
124
00:06:06,607 --> 00:06:09,023
We've just got to win this,
haven't we? No matter how.
125
00:06:09,403 --> 00:06:11,232
They want to beat us bad.
126
00:06:11,371 --> 00:06:13,303
It's Rathbone inside.
Cleworth 25 yards out.
127
00:06:13,442 --> 00:06:15,582
They're backing off him.
He's in the box. He hits it.
128
00:06:15,720 --> 00:06:17,825
Oh, that's a great save.
129
00:06:17,963 --> 00:06:20,345
Barnett cuts inside
easily again, squares it.
130
00:06:20,483 --> 00:06:24,314
Lee's got space here.
Tell Tom to shoot. He does,
but he took a bit of time.
131
00:06:24,453 --> 00:06:27,559
We're better than this team.
We just got to put one in.
132
00:06:28,457 --> 00:06:30,597
Here is
the away-swinging corner.
It's in.
133
00:06:30,976 --> 00:06:35,325
And Bristol Rovers are looking
to pull off a real shock here.
134
00:06:35,464 --> 00:06:37,466
I'm gonna go sit with
the Philly crew
for a little bit
135
00:06:37,604 --> 00:06:41,677
and kind of hopefully
change up the the juju.
136
00:06:41,815 --> 00:06:44,645
Let's go, let's go.
We need something.
137
00:06:44,783 --> 00:06:46,992
Longman delivers
to the far post.
138
00:06:47,130 --> 00:06:50,582
Fletcher gets up,
heads it over the bar.
That was a huge, huge chance.
139
00:06:50,720 --> 00:06:53,033
The Wrexham crowd
really getting up here.
140
00:06:53,171 --> 00:06:56,277
Longman chance to cross,
digs the ball into
that six-yard box.
141
00:06:56,416 --> 00:06:58,245
Headed, path clear. Driven in!
142
00:07:01,179 --> 00:07:07,496
Wrexham pulls it back!
The 76th minute, and
Matty James, a great finish.
143
00:07:07,634 --> 00:07:12,397
And he wheels his arms,
telling the crowd
to get on their feet.
144
00:07:12,846 --> 00:07:14,744
Just one. Just one.
145
00:07:14,882 --> 00:07:19,231
Thirteen minutes left,
one all. It's not enough.
146
00:07:19,369 --> 00:07:21,510
This is where
the Wrexham magic happens.
147
00:07:21,648 --> 00:07:24,547
Sweeps it with height
beyond the far post.
Lee heads it back in.
148
00:07:24,685 --> 00:07:28,137
Defender gets a touch,
it's in the goalmouth
and Ward gets there first.
149
00:07:28,275 --> 00:07:31,002
Wrexham looking for
this most precious goal.
150
00:07:31,140 --> 00:07:34,419
Bristol Rovers
fighting like hell,
defending their box.
151
00:07:34,557 --> 00:07:36,973
Cleworth helps it on,
James puts it off target.
152
00:07:37,698 --> 00:07:42,220
And Bristol Rovers
have come here
and dealt Wrexham a huge blow,
153
00:07:42,358 --> 00:07:44,533
and we have dropped two points.
154
00:07:44,671 --> 00:07:49,296
Wycombe have gone 2-nil up
as well at Bolton,
so they will be
155
00:07:49,434 --> 00:07:51,850
into the top two.
156
00:07:51,988 --> 00:07:54,059
It felt like a loss.
157
00:07:54,197 --> 00:07:56,717
We sort of had to win that game
just to stay ahead of Wycombe,
but we didn't.
158
00:07:56,855 --> 00:08:01,066
And so Wycombe jumped
in front of us, and with
three games to go, you know,
159
00:08:01,204 --> 00:08:02,585
it's out of your hands
at that stage.
160
00:08:02,723 --> 00:08:05,588
The 1-1 draw
was a massive disappointment.
161
00:08:05,726 --> 00:08:08,695
So that's two draws
on a back-to-back basis.
162
00:08:09,212 --> 00:08:10,904
Things are no longer
in our hands,
163
00:08:11,042 --> 00:08:14,424
and you can see and sense
the mood amongst the players.
164
00:08:14,563 --> 00:08:15,874
It's gonna come
down to the wire.
165
00:08:16,012 --> 00:08:17,738
It's gonna go down
to the last day.
166
00:08:17,876 --> 00:08:19,602
And when you look at
the fixtures ahead
for both sides,
167
00:08:19,740 --> 00:08:23,157
every game now is a cup final,
every game matters so much.
168
00:08:30,095 --> 00:08:31,580
Discipline needs to improve,
boys, come on.
169
00:08:31,718 --> 00:08:34,444
We're two years
into our Category 3 academy.
170
00:08:34,583 --> 00:08:37,965
For us to finish second
in the league table
against these top clubs
171
00:08:38,103 --> 00:08:40,589
is testament to the good work
and the support that we've had
172
00:08:40,727 --> 00:08:42,176
in setting up the academy.
173
00:08:42,314 --> 00:08:43,350
Keep the tempo up!
174
00:08:44,075 --> 00:08:45,904
But in terms of the lads'
progress and development,
175
00:08:46,042 --> 00:08:47,975
they come in
as first-year scholars
176
00:08:48,113 --> 00:08:50,771
and they're straightaway
thinking they're gonna get
a professional contract.
177
00:08:50,909 --> 00:08:52,359
- Quicker.
- That's why they're here.
178
00:08:56,639 --> 00:08:59,780
We're now towards the end of
the season, and this is
the point where players
179
00:08:59,918 --> 00:09:03,163
will find out
whether they will receive
professional contracts or not.
180
00:09:03,301 --> 00:09:06,097
Leanne,
David, Bryn, great to see you.
181
00:09:06,235 --> 00:09:07,512
It's that time of the season
182
00:09:07,650 --> 00:09:09,652
where we discuss
some next steps, et cetera.
183
00:09:09,790 --> 00:09:12,275
And I think the first thing
I wanna do is just thank you
for your time.
184
00:09:12,413 --> 00:09:13,656
You've been here a long time.
185
00:09:13,794 --> 00:09:15,485
Because you're such
a great character,
186
00:09:15,624 --> 00:09:17,315
these decisions
become even harder.
187
00:09:17,798 --> 00:09:21,526
Unfortunately, Bryn,
we won't be offering you
registration for next season.
188
00:09:23,114 --> 00:09:24,391
Okay.
189
00:09:25,116 --> 00:09:30,017
I know it's tough to take.
You're a committed,
fantastic young man.
190
00:09:37,818 --> 00:09:40,338
We want to support you,
so that coaching side.
191
00:09:40,821 --> 00:09:44,273
You're still very young,
you've got a massive part
of your future ahead of you.
192
00:09:49,796 --> 00:09:51,867
You are a fantastic young man.
193
00:09:52,005 --> 00:09:53,351
- You really are.
- Thanks.
194
00:09:53,489 --> 00:09:54,939
I was quite confident
going into the meeting
195
00:09:55,077 --> 00:09:57,320
that he would be able to see
the wider picture
196
00:09:57,458 --> 00:10:00,185
and be able to use the skills
that he's gained here
at the academy.
197
00:10:00,323 --> 00:10:04,258
And there's no doubt in my mind
Bryn's gonna go on to have
a fantastic future.
198
00:10:07,020 --> 00:10:10,195
- How we feeling? How we doing?
- Yeah, fine. Okay, yeah. So
199
00:10:10,610 --> 00:10:13,923
We're really nervous,
me and my mum, my dad
and my little brother come.
200
00:10:14,061 --> 00:10:16,650
Probably the biggest day
of me life. I just try to be
as chill as possible.
201
00:10:16,788 --> 00:10:18,238
All right,
first and foremost, Tom,
202
00:10:18,376 --> 00:10:19,860
- I want to talk about you
as a person.
- Yeah.
203
00:10:19,998 --> 00:10:22,173
Absolute credit
to yourself and your family.
204
00:10:23,036 --> 00:10:25,314
Your attitude, your commitment
on the field, off the field
205
00:10:25,452 --> 00:10:28,800
is absolutely exactly
as it should be,
so thank you for that.
206
00:10:29,180 --> 00:10:32,321
There's been some
tough decisions, and we're
at the stage now where
207
00:10:33,115 --> 00:10:35,255
we'd like offer you
a professional contract.
208
00:10:35,393 --> 00:10:38,603
Well done.
209
00:11:01,315 --> 00:11:06,251
♪ You'll get there
Because we know you can ♪
210
00:11:06,389 --> 00:11:10,635
♪ Run, Humphrey, run, Humphrey
Run, run, run ♪
211
00:11:10,773 --> 00:11:15,847
So, eight months ago, I made
a um, shall we say,
impulsive declaration
212
00:11:15,985 --> 00:11:18,954
that if the foundation
did not raise enough money
213
00:11:19,092 --> 00:11:21,784
for the Wrexham Miners Project
that I would run a marathon.
214
00:11:21,922 --> 00:11:24,269
There he is. Good job.
215
00:11:24,407 --> 00:11:27,617
When I started my training,
I could run without stopping
216
00:11:27,756 --> 00:11:32,588
I don't know if
I mean, if I was being chased
by a dog with a gun
217
00:11:32,726 --> 00:11:34,210
First seven-mile run.
218
00:11:34,348 --> 00:11:35,453
quarter of a mile?
219
00:11:35,591 --> 00:11:37,420
- My back hurts.
- Oh, my God.
220
00:11:38,490 --> 00:11:39,595
I've gotten sciatica.
221
00:11:39,733 --> 00:11:42,598
My left knee locked up.
222
00:11:45,049 --> 00:11:48,397
This is not an act.
223
00:11:49,605 --> 00:11:51,227
Mostly,
I've just hated running.
224
00:11:51,365 --> 00:11:52,573
This is miserable!
225
00:11:53,367 --> 00:11:57,199
Now, very unfortunately,
I have to go and do
the marathon.
226
00:11:57,958 --> 00:12:00,720
You are at the start
of your epic, epic adventure
227
00:12:00,858 --> 00:12:05,103
that is the 2025
Manchester Marathon.
228
00:12:07,934 --> 00:12:08,969
Yeah.
229
00:12:19,773 --> 00:12:23,812
I knew that
he was gonna find himself
getting into great shape
230
00:12:23,950 --> 00:12:25,434
and he was gonna feel great.
231
00:12:25,572 --> 00:12:27,367
Keep going! Keep going!
232
00:12:27,505 --> 00:12:30,025
And that this was going to be
life-changing for him
233
00:12:30,163 --> 00:12:33,442
and that he was then
gonna embrace fitness.
234
00:12:33,580 --> 00:12:36,617
- Humphrey, let's go!
- Yes, lad!
235
00:12:37,066 --> 00:12:38,309
And that's not what happened.
236
00:12:38,447 --> 00:12:39,759
Aw.
237
00:12:39,897 --> 00:12:42,140
Sorry. Oh, my God, sorry.
238
00:12:42,762 --> 00:12:45,972
At no point did he enjoy it.
239
00:12:47,180 --> 00:12:50,252
Miles 17 to 21,
everything felt like lead.
240
00:12:50,942 --> 00:12:53,220
And then, yeah, the nipples.
241
00:12:54,290 --> 00:12:56,914
Yeah, the old nips fell off, basically.
242
00:13:01,504 --> 00:13:03,161
They're actually fine now.
243
00:13:04,507 --> 00:13:06,302
Yeah, it did look slightly
like I'd been shot
244
00:13:06,440 --> 00:13:09,202
with a sort of very
low-caliber bullet.
245
00:13:11,307 --> 00:13:14,621
Three cheers,
you've crossed the line.
Well done, ladies.
246
00:13:14,759 --> 00:13:16,450
Many congratulations.
247
00:13:16,588 --> 00:13:18,004
Well done.
248
00:13:18,487 --> 00:13:19,557
Hey.
249
00:13:19,695 --> 00:13:22,456
Wrexham, Wrexham,
Wrexham, Wrexham.
250
00:13:26,150 --> 00:13:29,394
I know full well all I
have to do is cross that line
251
00:13:29,532 --> 00:13:34,089
and then fucking Rob and Ryan
have to pay up 50 grand
to the miners.
252
00:13:46,032 --> 00:13:47,516
Can you endure a hug?
253
00:13:48,413 --> 00:13:50,519
- I completed
the Manchester marathon
- Thank you so much.
254
00:13:50,657 --> 00:13:52,452
and saw Rob.
255
00:13:52,590 --> 00:13:54,281
And then behind him,
much more importantly,
256
00:13:54,419 --> 00:13:55,938
people from
Wrexham Miners Project.
257
00:13:56,076 --> 00:13:58,389
You know, you run a marathon
because it it sucks
258
00:13:58,527 --> 00:14:00,840
and that's why people
sponsor you to do it.
259
00:14:02,048 --> 00:14:03,704
And it really sucked.
260
00:14:04,119 --> 00:14:07,432
Sort of directly proportional
to the amount of money
we ended up raising.
261
00:14:07,570 --> 00:14:12,852
♪ Run, Humphrey, run, Humphrey
Run, run, run ♪
262
00:14:18,754 --> 00:14:21,377
Wrexham! Wrexham!
263
00:14:21,515 --> 00:14:23,138
This time
we're going to Blackpool.
264
00:14:23,276 --> 00:14:25,036
Again, another team that's
played in the Premier League,
265
00:14:25,174 --> 00:14:27,452
currently tenth in the table.
266
00:14:27,590 --> 00:14:29,799
Now your season boils down
to maybe three games.
267
00:14:29,938 --> 00:14:31,318
The pressure comes onto it.
268
00:14:31,456 --> 00:14:33,217
The fans and expectations
that they have
269
00:14:33,355 --> 00:14:35,288
and fans, all leading up to
these playoff games.
270
00:14:35,426 --> 00:14:38,670
"Come on,
we want to get promoted."
And it gets so big.
271
00:14:38,808 --> 00:14:41,466
We can taste it. We're so close
to promotion, we can taste it,
272
00:14:41,604 --> 00:14:45,436
but I mean,
we keep dropping points.
Very frustrating.
273
00:14:45,815 --> 00:14:49,509
It's a crucial game,
with Wycombe picking up points
the other day.
274
00:14:50,268 --> 00:14:53,306
Today is the sort of, you know,
do or die really.
275
00:14:53,444 --> 00:14:56,205
I think that Wycombe will be
the more likely to go ahead,
276
00:14:56,343 --> 00:14:58,483
especially with the one point
advantage, with three left.
277
00:14:58,621 --> 00:15:00,485
I think Wycombe have
the experience as well,
278
00:15:00,623 --> 00:15:03,764
more so in this division
in this league.
There's a lot at stake.
279
00:15:06,215 --> 00:15:08,562
It's a huge day of matches
in League One.
280
00:15:08,700 --> 00:15:13,326
If Wrexham lose against
Blackpool and Wycombe win
their match against Charlton,
281
00:15:13,464 --> 00:15:16,363
Wycombe will take
a significant lead
over Wrexham.
282
00:15:16,501 --> 00:15:22,473
And our hopes of regaining
that automatic promotion spot
may start slipping away.
283
00:15:22,611 --> 00:15:25,338
The pressure from the outside
was on us
284
00:15:25,476 --> 00:15:27,202
after two draws.
285
00:15:27,340 --> 00:15:30,170
Every cunt's
written us off, aren't they?
Fuck 'em. Fuck 'em.
286
00:15:30,308 --> 00:15:32,345
Let's go and fucking show 'em.
Come on.
287
00:15:32,483 --> 00:15:33,967
Let's fucking go!
288
00:15:34,105 --> 00:15:36,901
- Thank you!
- Let's go.
We're sitting right here.
289
00:15:37,039 --> 00:15:40,525
That's Rob McElhenney
down there.
I just realized, in the crowd.
290
00:15:40,663 --> 00:15:43,045
All right, let's go.
Squeeze in.
291
00:15:43,183 --> 00:15:48,671
Listen to this noise
from the Wrexham fans
as Wrexham get things underway.
292
00:15:48,809 --> 00:15:50,880
- Come on.
- Poor ball by Coulson.
293
00:15:51,019 --> 00:15:53,469
Longman hits the shot.
It's blocked. Chance at
the edge of the area.
294
00:15:53,607 --> 00:15:56,093
Rathbone's shot is blocked
and that's a corner.
295
00:15:56,231 --> 00:15:58,233
Whoa. This is the sort of start
you want.
296
00:16:00,545 --> 00:16:05,585
This feels frantic already.
Wrexham are pushing hard here.
297
00:16:05,723 --> 00:16:09,520
What a chance for McClean.
And what a save by Tyrer!
298
00:16:10,693 --> 00:16:14,042
It's been absolutely brilliant,
apart from getting that ball
in the back of the net.
299
00:16:14,180 --> 00:16:17,907
It's Dobson to Rodriguez.
What a save again by Tyrer!
300
00:16:18,046 --> 00:16:19,668
Oh, my God!
301
00:16:19,806 --> 00:16:22,602
Wrexham on fire
but can't hit the net.
302
00:16:22,740 --> 00:16:24,604
How many chances
are we gonna get?
303
00:16:24,742 --> 00:16:27,917
Jay! Brilliant, son,
keep finding the pockets.
304
00:16:28,056 --> 00:16:32,957
There was a sense
that everybody was starting to
tighten up and try too hard
305
00:16:33,095 --> 00:16:36,167
and second-guess themselves
and worry about everything.
306
00:16:36,305 --> 00:16:38,583
And we knew
that needed to change.
307
00:16:38,721 --> 00:16:44,624
Chance to hit it, and it's
just over from the man in
That was close.
308
00:16:44,762 --> 00:16:49,387
I'm a little concerned about
Blackpool. They've managed
to get back into the game.
309
00:16:49,525 --> 00:16:54,220
Still no score, and the referee
ends the first half.
310
00:16:54,358 --> 00:16:58,293
At Wycombe, they remain
2-nil down against Charlton.
311
00:16:58,431 --> 00:17:01,296
You two are gonna fight
tooth and nail to keep the ball
at the top of the pitch.
312
00:17:01,434 --> 00:17:04,402
Jay, in the pocket.
Smithy, down the side.
313
00:17:04,540 --> 00:17:06,749
Away we go,
as we get the game underway.
314
00:17:06,887 --> 00:17:09,545
But the big thing is,
is the physicality.
315
00:17:09,683 --> 00:17:14,447
Headers, tackles,
real fighting spirit
at battles with the quality,
316
00:17:14,585 --> 00:17:16,311
'cause we're capable
of doing both.
317
00:17:16,449 --> 00:17:18,589
We've done it and we're gonna
go and do it again. Let's go.
318
00:17:20,556 --> 00:17:22,627
We just need that breakthrough,
don't we?
319
00:17:22,765 --> 00:17:24,457
Dobson sweeps it!
320
00:17:25,837 --> 00:17:27,080
McClean.
321
00:17:30,290 --> 00:17:32,982
Drills it in the goalmouth!
It's there!
322
00:17:33,121 --> 00:17:37,953
Wrexham get that goal!
McClean with a brilliant
driven ball in.
323
00:17:38,091 --> 00:17:40,680
Wrexham take the lead.
324
00:17:41,853 --> 00:17:42,992
Yeah!
325
00:17:43,131 --> 00:17:45,616
Come on, Wrexham!
326
00:17:46,996 --> 00:17:50,448
That first-time ball out wide
is absolutely ridiculous,
327
00:17:50,586 --> 00:17:52,312
the bend that he gets on it.
328
00:17:52,450 --> 00:17:57,006
And then it's fizzed in
and wheels away. Wow!
329
00:17:57,145 --> 00:17:59,388
It is pandemonium
in that away end!
330
00:17:59,768 --> 00:18:05,429
It certainly is.
Goodness me. This noise. Wow!
331
00:18:06,499 --> 00:18:09,674
Longman delivers into the box.
Back to goal,
Rodriguez takes it well.
332
00:18:09,812 --> 00:18:12,815
Hits shot! It's 2-nil!
333
00:18:12,953 --> 00:18:15,473
Lovely take by Rodriguez!
334
00:18:15,611 --> 00:18:17,544
Yes! Yes!
335
00:18:17,682 --> 00:18:21,962
And it is Rathbone
who drills it home.
Great finish by Rathbone.
336
00:18:22,101 --> 00:18:26,829
And Wrexham are on fire!
Unbelievable!
337
00:18:27,382 --> 00:18:31,558
It's definitely gone up
a few decibels as well. Wow.
338
00:18:31,972 --> 00:18:33,733
Wrexham!
339
00:18:33,871 --> 00:18:37,288
And there is the final whistle.
What a performance!
340
00:18:37,426 --> 00:18:40,705
What an away day by Wrexham!
341
00:18:40,843 --> 00:18:43,363
A brilliant, brilliant effort.
342
00:18:43,501 --> 00:18:47,333
We most certainly took
the grip back
343
00:18:47,471 --> 00:18:50,232
- in this promotion battle
with Wycombe.
- Come on!
344
00:18:50,370 --> 00:18:54,719
Wycombe lose 4-nil at home,
Wrexham win 2-1 at Blackpool,
345
00:18:54,857 --> 00:18:57,860
and fans are rewarded with
an unbelievable performance
346
00:18:57,998 --> 00:19:01,105
- from start to finish.
- Town are going up, olé, olé!
347
00:19:02,279 --> 00:19:03,728
It's never easy
following Wrexham.
348
00:19:03,866 --> 00:19:05,799
- Next Saturday we can relax.
- Yeah.
349
00:19:07,732 --> 00:19:10,218
I think it'll be
the hardest match for us
against Charlton.
350
00:19:10,356 --> 00:19:12,392
As the players leave the field,
all of a sudden
351
00:19:12,530 --> 00:19:15,706
everything's in our hands again
for automatic promotion.
352
00:19:15,844 --> 00:19:20,538
But, of course,
we do have to be aware.
Wycombe are still chasing us,
353
00:19:20,676 --> 00:19:22,575
Charlton are coming up
on the rails.
354
00:19:22,713 --> 00:19:27,131
And any form of overconfidence
will soon be picked up on,
355
00:19:27,269 --> 00:19:30,376
and we'll be back
in the position again
where it's not in our hands
356
00:19:30,514 --> 00:19:33,448
and lose
that automatic promotion place.
357
00:19:38,177 --> 00:19:40,455
- Hiya.
- Hi. You all right?
358
00:19:40,593 --> 00:19:41,904
- What's happening, child?
- Good.
359
00:19:42,042 --> 00:19:43,389
- How are we?
- Good.
360
00:19:43,527 --> 00:19:46,046
Archie's a lovely kid.
He's a Wrexham fan.
361
00:19:46,185 --> 00:19:48,601
He's got a rare form
of blood cancer.
362
00:19:48,739 --> 00:19:50,258
- Yeah. Yeah.
- You okay? Yeah?
363
00:19:50,396 --> 00:19:53,261
Archie has recovered
from the last cycle of chemo,
364
00:19:53,399 --> 00:19:55,124
and this is
our first proper day out.
365
00:19:55,263 --> 00:19:57,126
- Is your pool any better?
- I bet I could beat you
next time.
366
00:19:57,265 --> 00:19:58,818
- You think you can beat me
next time?
- Yeah.
367
00:19:58,956 --> 00:20:02,235
We start bone marrow
transplant on Monday.
368
00:20:02,373 --> 00:20:04,651
So today was
very, very special for him.
369
00:20:04,789 --> 00:20:05,963
- Hello again.
- Hello again.
370
00:20:06,101 --> 00:20:08,241
- Hi.
- Hey, little man.
371
00:20:08,379 --> 00:20:11,417
- Go get special treatment now.
- What's up, man?
372
00:20:11,796 --> 00:20:13,142
- How are you?
- Good.
373
00:20:13,281 --> 00:20:15,455
It's so good
to finally meet you in person.
374
00:20:15,593 --> 00:20:18,182
I met Archie
while I was on set, actually,
375
00:20:18,320 --> 00:20:20,426
because I got a FaceTime
from Ollie Palmer.
376
00:20:20,564 --> 00:20:22,635
And I was in between takes,
and so I answered it.
377
00:20:22,773 --> 00:20:24,671
- Hey, Archie.
- Oh.
378
00:20:24,809 --> 00:20:26,225
- That's the best, huh?
- Wow.
379
00:20:26,604 --> 00:20:27,985
Then we just stayed in touch.
380
00:20:28,123 --> 00:20:30,953
And so I reached out to
Archie's parents.
381
00:20:31,299 --> 00:20:33,266
And I wanted to give him a tour
of the stadium
382
00:20:33,404 --> 00:20:35,199
and then bring him to a game.
383
00:20:35,337 --> 00:20:38,098
You got all sorts of people
fighting through
all sorts of adversity
384
00:20:38,237 --> 00:20:39,479
with a smile on your face
385
00:20:39,617 --> 00:20:42,033
and it's really inspiring
for me and for us.
386
00:20:42,171 --> 00:20:44,243
- Yeah.
- So, you're somebody
we look up to.
387
00:20:44,381 --> 00:20:45,278
For real.
388
00:20:45,416 --> 00:20:47,315
Archie was nervous.
389
00:20:47,453 --> 00:20:49,662
It's probably the most nervous
I've seen him actually
in a long time.
390
00:20:49,800 --> 00:20:51,629
Mr. Parkin, this is
my friend Archie.
391
00:20:51,767 --> 00:20:53,148
Good to see you.
How are you?
392
00:20:53,286 --> 00:20:55,046
- Good. Yeah.
- Good.
393
00:20:55,184 --> 00:20:56,979
- He got to speak to
Steve Parkin.
- Are you coming to the game
394
00:20:57,117 --> 00:20:58,326
- at the weekend?
- Yes.
395
00:20:58,464 --> 00:20:59,844
Good.
Expecting big things?
396
00:20:59,982 --> 00:21:01,536
- Massive.
- Hopefully.
397
00:21:01,915 --> 00:21:03,710
Massive.
398
00:21:03,848 --> 00:21:06,126
He was telling him
what he thinks Charlton
might do on Saturday.
399
00:21:06,265 --> 00:21:08,715
Right wing back
is very forward thinking.
400
00:21:08,853 --> 00:21:11,408
He got to stand
in the changing rooms
with the lads.
401
00:21:11,546 --> 00:21:15,377
Ryan was there, Paul was there.
Palmer was there.
402
00:21:15,515 --> 00:21:17,828
He couldn't get out of bed
when you came, could he?
403
00:21:19,968 --> 00:21:21,521
Twice. Twice.
404
00:21:23,385 --> 00:21:27,251
To have a son at 12 years old,
be taken away from his friends,
405
00:21:27,389 --> 00:21:31,669
his normal way of life
is very difficult.
406
00:21:31,807 --> 00:21:32,739
You need to touch.
407
00:21:32,877 --> 00:21:34,189
I can't reach it, so
408
00:21:34,327 --> 00:21:36,295
He just makes us so proud
because of how
409
00:21:38,918 --> 00:21:40,022
happy he is.
410
00:21:40,160 --> 00:21:41,852
I got special permission.
411
00:21:42,197 --> 00:21:45,442
Everybody else,
including your parents,
have to walk around the pitch,
412
00:21:45,580 --> 00:21:47,340
- but you and I
can walk straight across.
- Wow.
413
00:21:47,478 --> 00:21:49,480
- You wanna walk
straight across? Yeah.
- Really? Wow.
414
00:21:49,618 --> 00:21:51,724
Okay, let's do it.
You and me, buddy.
415
00:21:51,862 --> 00:21:53,760
Yeah. I'm taking some.
416
00:21:53,898 --> 00:21:55,210
- You can take some.
- Nice.
417
00:21:55,348 --> 00:21:56,901
- Yeah?
- Yeah.
418
00:21:57,039 --> 00:22:00,353
When I think about adversity,
his face pops into my head.
419
00:22:00,905 --> 00:22:02,355
Because it's all so trivial
420
00:22:02,493 --> 00:22:04,184
when you think that there's
this 12-year-old boy
421
00:22:04,323 --> 00:22:09,776
and his parents who have to
essentially live in a hospital
422
00:22:10,190 --> 00:22:11,433
for months on end
423
00:22:11,571 --> 00:22:15,368
so that he can beat
this fucking cancer.
424
00:22:15,748 --> 00:22:18,267
On the TV,
it looks quite far away, but--
425
00:22:18,406 --> 00:22:20,373
Okay, you ready?
Let me put this over here.
426
00:22:20,511 --> 00:22:21,685
Nice and easy.
427
00:22:22,548 --> 00:22:24,204
Yes.
428
00:22:24,343 --> 00:22:27,449
Talk about pressure, overcoming
adversity, overcoming the odds.
429
00:22:27,587 --> 00:22:33,213
It is insanely inspiring.
He's a beacon
for the whole club.
430
00:22:33,662 --> 00:22:35,595
- I scored. I scored.
- You sure did.
431
00:22:35,733 --> 00:22:37,977
- You scored at the Racecourse.
- Yeah.
432
00:22:43,120 --> 00:22:47,124
Welcome to
Brisbane Road for Leyton Orient
against Wycombe.
433
00:22:47,538 --> 00:22:52,578
And it's Wrexham or Wycombe for
the automatic promotion spot.
434
00:22:53,130 --> 00:22:56,961
Get ready for a day that could
change just about everything.
435
00:22:57,099 --> 00:23:01,103
Wycombe were going to be
playing before us
at 12:30 on the day,
436
00:23:01,241 --> 00:23:03,485
and our game
kicking off at 5:30.
437
00:23:03,623 --> 00:23:06,246
If Wycombe beat Leyton Orient
and overtake us,
438
00:23:06,385 --> 00:23:09,974
Wrexham have to beat Charlton
today to retake second place
439
00:23:10,112 --> 00:23:12,011
and would still have to win
their final match
440
00:23:12,149 --> 00:23:14,600
to have a chance at
automatic promotion.
441
00:23:14,979 --> 00:23:17,188
I feel very nervous, like,
very, very nervous.
442
00:23:17,326 --> 00:23:19,398
- Yeah?
- Yeah, like
adult diaper nervous.
443
00:23:19,777 --> 00:23:21,503
But if Wycombe lose,
444
00:23:21,641 --> 00:23:24,161
Wrexham would be promoted
with a win today.
445
00:23:24,299 --> 00:23:25,956
That was the moment
I think all of us,
446
00:23:26,094 --> 00:23:27,889
everybody,
the entire town went,
447
00:23:28,303 --> 00:23:30,029
"Holy shit, this could happen."
448
00:23:30,167 --> 00:23:34,482
We could not only be promoted,
but we could make history
doing it.
449
00:23:34,620 --> 00:23:37,139
That was probably
the worst day for me,
450
00:23:37,277 --> 00:23:38,969
in terms of trying to overthink
451
00:23:39,107 --> 00:23:41,109
and then I got to a point
where there's nothing I can do.
452
00:23:41,247 --> 00:23:42,869
It was a very weird morning.
453
00:23:43,007 --> 00:23:44,319
Head it! Head it!
454
00:23:44,457 --> 00:23:46,217
My brother and my dad
put the Wycombe game on.
455
00:23:46,355 --> 00:23:48,012
I was like, "Just get it off.
I don't want to know."
456
00:23:48,150 --> 00:23:50,187
I kept an eye on the scores,
I'll be honest.
457
00:23:50,325 --> 00:23:52,948
Left-foot shot. Turned in!
458
00:23:56,296 --> 00:23:59,990
That's right, ponytail! Yes!
459
00:24:03,165 --> 00:24:05,513
And that is the final whistle.
460
00:24:05,651 --> 00:24:08,239
Yeah!
461
00:24:10,276 --> 00:24:13,003
Give those boys
the night-night juice. Wow!
462
00:24:14,038 --> 00:24:17,145
By the time the game
is finished and Wycombe
have got beaten,
463
00:24:17,283 --> 00:24:20,597
you could hear the roar
all the way around Wrexham.
464
00:24:21,529 --> 00:24:25,360
We need
those three points. We want
that automatic promotion.
465
00:24:25,498 --> 00:24:27,707
We'll move forward
with Wrexham,
and it's a bumper game.
466
00:24:27,845 --> 00:24:30,261
We have to go to the circus
and see what we can get.
467
00:24:33,506 --> 00:24:36,198
- Welcome to the circus,
Charlton.
- Yes.
468
00:24:42,791 --> 00:24:44,344
Go on, the town!
469
00:24:44,966 --> 00:24:48,348
Biggest game
in football history.
470
00:24:53,561 --> 00:24:57,392
That obviously adds
the pressure on us because
we need to win now to do it.
471
00:24:57,530 --> 00:24:59,428
Yeah, you feel
really big pressure.
472
00:24:59,567 --> 00:25:01,189
It's now ours to lose.
473
00:25:01,327 --> 00:25:03,363
Our route to glory is clear.
474
00:25:03,502 --> 00:25:05,434
If we're able to beat Charlton,
475
00:25:05,918 --> 00:25:09,024
we are going to achieve that
back-to-back-to-back promotion.
476
00:25:10,750 --> 00:25:13,201
You guys wanna eat
your feelings?
477
00:25:13,339 --> 00:25:14,513
Wrexham!
478
00:25:16,411 --> 00:25:20,760
Phil asked
if I would just give a little
pep talk to the players
479
00:25:20,898 --> 00:25:26,179
who, um who just needed
to hear something fresh.
480
00:25:26,559 --> 00:25:32,289
He's like,
"Look, they're listening to me
and Steve Parkin, um,
481
00:25:32,427 --> 00:25:37,087
all year long, and I think
they just maybe need to hear
a fresh perspective."
482
00:25:38,053 --> 00:25:41,781
I'm not assuming
that I have any right to talk
483
00:25:41,919 --> 00:25:45,716
to a group of young
professional athletes about
what they do for a living.
484
00:25:46,130 --> 00:25:50,134
I reached out to a couple of
professional athlete friends
of mine and said,
485
00:25:50,272 --> 00:25:56,416
"Hey, if you wanted
to hear from the chairman
before a game like this,
486
00:25:56,555 --> 00:26:00,075
what would you what would you
wanna hear? What would you
need need to hear?"
487
00:26:00,213 --> 00:26:01,663
And to protect his privacy,
488
00:26:01,801 --> 00:26:03,562
and everybody's privacy
who's a part of the story,
489
00:26:03,700 --> 00:26:05,391
we'll just bleep out
all the names.
490
00:26:05,771 --> 00:26:09,015
So, I reached out to [bleep],
he's a friend of mine
491
00:26:09,153 --> 00:26:11,811
and I'm like,
"If there's anybody
in the arena, he's the one."
492
00:26:12,501 --> 00:26:15,366
I'm gonna read you
my text exchange
because I felt like, "Okay."
493
00:26:15,504 --> 00:26:18,922
If you have access to
one of the greatest players
of all time at something,
494
00:26:19,060 --> 00:26:20,613
you might as well
listen to him.
495
00:26:20,751 --> 00:26:22,788
So, "Rob, your guys
have far exceeded expectations.
496
00:26:22,926 --> 00:26:24,444
Now they just have to finish.
497
00:26:24,583 --> 00:26:27,033
Here is the secret:
I want you to tell them from me
498
00:26:27,171 --> 00:26:29,001
that they have to remember,
499
00:26:29,139 --> 00:26:33,626
even if they have to
force themselves,
that this needs to be fun."
500
00:26:33,764 --> 00:26:34,834
This is an important one.
501
00:26:34,972 --> 00:26:36,767
He said,
"[bleep] told me something
502
00:26:36,905 --> 00:26:38,976
that [bleep] told him
before his first Masters."
503
00:26:42,014 --> 00:26:45,155
So now we're talking about
This is now [bleep]
telling me something
504
00:26:45,500 --> 00:26:51,402
that [bleep] told him
that [bleep] told him
before his first Masters.
505
00:26:52,611 --> 00:26:54,647
"You already did
the work of a man.
506
00:26:54,785 --> 00:26:57,305
Now go out there and play
like a little boy."
507
00:26:59,203 --> 00:27:01,067
I wrote, "Jesus Christ.
508
00:27:01,205 --> 00:27:03,449
That's one of
the coolest texts anyone's
ever sent or received."
509
00:27:04,277 --> 00:27:06,486
He said, "The point is
that they need to go out there
510
00:27:06,625 --> 00:27:08,834
and play like they did
when they were ten years old,
511
00:27:09,179 --> 00:27:11,215
and that they were having
the time of their lives
512
00:27:11,353 --> 00:27:14,563
because I promise you
that's the only thing
that they will remember."
513
00:27:21,363 --> 00:27:24,677
That's it. Okay, boys,
just have a look here.
Everyone ready.
514
00:27:25,333 --> 00:27:28,336
So, because I'm a woo-woo actor
and a golfer,
515
00:27:28,992 --> 00:27:30,856
I believe in
visualizing something.
516
00:27:30,994 --> 00:27:33,375
So I want everybody, please,
to just close your eyes
right now.
517
00:27:33,513 --> 00:27:34,687
Everybody in the room.
518
00:27:36,724 --> 00:27:39,865
I want you
to picture a time in your life.
519
00:27:40,831 --> 00:27:44,145
Maybe you're eight,
maybe you're nine, maybe
you're ten, maybe you're six,
520
00:27:44,283 --> 00:27:45,387
maybe you're 12,
521
00:27:45,767 --> 00:27:47,942
but you're out there
and you're playing football.
522
00:27:48,080 --> 00:27:51,462
You're just kicking the ball
around. You're playing
with your friends, your dad
523
00:27:51,600 --> 00:27:54,224
your mom, your sisters,
your brothers, your buddies.
524
00:27:54,707 --> 00:27:57,468
You're just playing football.
525
00:27:58,642 --> 00:28:00,713
Sam? Kick.
526
00:28:00,851 --> 00:28:02,197
Lewis, that's
527
00:28:02,335 --> 00:28:04,130
Get up. Nice. No.
528
00:28:05,753 --> 00:28:08,134
Go on, Matt.
Go on, Matt. Go on.
529
00:28:09,377 --> 00:28:10,723
Well done, Matt!
530
00:28:20,906 --> 00:28:25,289
And it's fun. And you
fell in love with that feeling.
531
00:28:36,404 --> 00:28:40,373
At some point
along the way, the football
world fell in love with you,
532
00:28:40,926 --> 00:28:43,307
but you owe
the football world nothing.
533
00:28:43,445 --> 00:28:46,448
Of course
you're grateful for the support
that you've had along the way,
534
00:28:46,586 --> 00:28:51,074
your family, your friends,
and everyone, but you've
already honored that.
535
00:28:51,591 --> 00:28:55,112
From this point on, you do not
owe anything to anyone,
536
00:28:55,250 --> 00:28:58,702
not to me, not to your parents,
not to the club.
537
00:28:58,840 --> 00:29:01,049
I would even say,
not even to each other.
538
00:29:01,187 --> 00:29:05,467
From our point of view,
the door has been opened
for us, innit?
539
00:29:05,605 --> 00:29:07,642
The door has been opened,
540
00:29:07,780 --> 00:29:09,989
and we're gonna
fucking step through it with
a fucking proper performance.
541
00:29:10,127 --> 00:29:12,716
- Let's fucking go.
- Come on, boys.
Let's fucking go.
542
00:29:12,854 --> 00:29:15,029
Let's fucking go, boys. Go.
Come on, come on.
543
00:29:15,167 --> 00:29:18,170
From this point,
the only person
you owe something to
544
00:29:18,308 --> 00:29:22,139
is that ten-year-old kid
who fell in love with football,
545
00:29:22,277 --> 00:29:29,112
who could not wait
to be in the position that
you're in right fucking now!
546
00:29:32,011 --> 00:29:36,360
So, here we are.
As Wrexham face
Charlton Athletic,
547
00:29:36,498 --> 00:29:38,949
we know
what we've got to do here.
548
00:29:39,087 --> 00:29:41,331
We win, we go up.
549
00:29:41,814 --> 00:29:44,644
This is special. This is
This feels different today.
550
00:29:45,611 --> 00:29:47,199
All right, deep breath.
551
00:29:47,337 --> 00:29:51,237
Fasten your seat belts
and let's go on a journey.
552
00:29:55,103 --> 00:29:56,967
Come on! Do it! Do it!
553
00:29:57,761 --> 00:30:01,489
Wrexham! Wrexham! Wrexham!
554
00:30:01,627 --> 00:30:02,939
Come on!
555
00:30:15,503 --> 00:30:17,056
I picture Ryan Longman
doing his magic
556
00:30:17,194 --> 00:30:19,507
and, like, nutmegging
some kid at eight years old,
557
00:30:19,887 --> 00:30:22,579
and all the parents going,
"Who the hell is that kid?"
558
00:30:22,717 --> 00:30:26,376
He's in the box.
Longman rips it across.
Great ball in.
559
00:30:27,826 --> 00:30:33,866
I can imagine
Ollie Rathbone underestimated
because of his size,
560
00:30:34,004 --> 00:30:37,594
cutting across some player
and ripping one into
the back of the net.
561
00:30:37,732 --> 00:30:40,839
Wrexham are going
to Rathbone who hits a shot.
562
00:30:44,221 --> 00:30:45,464
Yeah!
563
00:30:46,810 --> 00:30:47,949
Ollie Rathbone!
564
00:30:48,605 --> 00:30:51,780
Rathbone, drills it home!
565
00:30:51,919 --> 00:30:54,093
This guy is on fire.
566
00:30:54,231 --> 00:30:58,546
And he smashes it in,
and Wrexham take the lead.
567
00:30:58,684 --> 00:31:01,135
Wowee,
that was a hell of a hit!
568
00:31:01,687 --> 00:31:03,827
Wrexham!
569
00:31:06,036 --> 00:31:10,627
I want you
to picture a time when James,
definitely at 11 years old,
570
00:31:10,765 --> 00:31:12,732
was f beating the shit
out of somebody.
571
00:31:13,906 --> 00:31:15,425
Great tackle by McClean.
572
00:31:18,704 --> 00:31:20,568
Or Sam
573
00:31:20,706 --> 00:31:24,089
doing something that's,
I don't know,
just physically impossible.
574
00:31:25,469 --> 00:31:27,575
Matty James
dinks it in for Smith.
575
00:31:27,713 --> 00:31:29,094
Kick it, Sam.
576
00:31:29,232 --> 00:31:30,440
Ball!
577
00:31:40,415 --> 00:31:41,796
The fuck was that!
578
00:31:42,245 --> 00:31:46,387
Sam Smith!
With a scissors kick!
579
00:31:46,939 --> 00:31:49,355
Oh, what a goal!
580
00:31:51,737 --> 00:31:54,533
James with
the most delicious assist.
581
00:31:54,947 --> 00:31:56,949
You look astonished, Mia!
582
00:31:57,087 --> 00:31:59,469
Oh, yeah.
Harry is in front of me,
he's just gone absolutely mad!
583
00:31:59,607 --> 00:32:02,921
Can't believe
what he's just seen!
What a goal! Sam Smith!
584
00:32:05,820 --> 00:32:07,442
Wrexham!
585
00:32:12,758 --> 00:32:14,173
- That's not selfish.
- Yeah, but
586
00:32:14,311 --> 00:32:15,968
I'd like a win for him.
587
00:32:16,106 --> 00:32:17,659
And now
Steven Fletcher comes on.
588
00:32:17,797 --> 00:32:19,696
The point is,
like, there is a moment
589
00:32:19,834 --> 00:32:22,871
or a series of moments
in which you were
in love with this game,
590
00:32:23,010 --> 00:32:25,771
and that is all
that fucking matters.
591
00:32:26,151 --> 00:32:29,740
Fifteen minutes left.
Cleworth goes outside.
592
00:32:30,672 --> 00:32:33,399
- This one's getting in.
- Cross comes in
593
00:32:37,507 --> 00:32:40,061
Goal!
594
00:32:42,270 --> 00:32:44,203
Yeah!
595
00:32:44,997 --> 00:32:47,137
And that is why you're here,
596
00:32:47,517 --> 00:32:50,554
that moment, because that's
what you deserve.
597
00:32:50,692 --> 00:32:52,901
You didn't owe that to anybody.
598
00:32:53,316 --> 00:32:57,182
Great header!
Brilliant cross!
Cleworth, the wingback.
599
00:32:58,079 --> 00:33:02,014
And you know what? This is
starting to look quite good.
600
00:33:02,842 --> 00:33:04,879
Oh, my God. Are we gonna do it?
601
00:33:05,017 --> 00:33:07,364
Yeah!
We're gonna fucking do it!
602
00:33:08,987 --> 00:33:12,680
I would just end with this.
Forget the history.
603
00:33:13,508 --> 00:33:16,718
I want you to go out there and
play like you're ten years old
604
00:33:17,202 --> 00:33:20,895
and have the time of your lives
because I promise you
605
00:33:21,723 --> 00:33:24,761
that is the only thing
you will remember.
606
00:33:24,899 --> 00:33:26,556
Dad would have loved that.
607
00:33:29,904 --> 00:33:34,978
- Told ya.
- That's it!
They've done it!
608
00:33:35,116 --> 00:33:37,429
We are the first team
in history
609
00:33:38,188 --> 00:33:43,469
to win back-to-back-to-back
promotions.
610
00:33:48,060 --> 00:33:50,373
It's believable, but barely.
611
00:33:56,586 --> 00:33:57,621
Back-to-back-to-back!
612
00:33:57,759 --> 00:34:00,245
History in front of our eyes!
613
00:34:31,069 --> 00:34:32,242
Holy shit.
614
00:34:33,243 --> 00:34:35,038
Like, what feels
better than that?
615
00:34:35,176 --> 00:34:37,661
It looked like
you guys had a fucking blast.
616
00:34:37,799 --> 00:34:40,147
Like, what are all those idiots
doing with the cocaine?
617
00:34:40,285 --> 00:34:42,218
This is so much better.
618
00:34:44,772 --> 00:34:49,087
This team
just written their names into
absolute history, haven't they?
619
00:34:49,225 --> 00:34:50,709
What about that then?
620
00:35:11,212 --> 00:35:15,527
What about that phrase
"To Wrexham it," is that
a thing of the past now?
621
00:35:15,665 --> 00:35:17,287
Can we consign that to history?
622
00:35:17,425 --> 00:35:19,358
You'd hope so, wouldn't you?
You really would.
623
00:35:19,496 --> 00:35:22,672
I think doing a Wrexham
has changed its meaning now.
624
00:35:22,810 --> 00:35:27,470
Doing a Wrexham
is winning promotion
back-to-back-to-back.
625
00:35:28,333 --> 00:35:29,644
It means everything.
626
00:35:29,782 --> 00:35:32,716
Wrexham are playing
Championship football.
627
00:35:32,854 --> 00:35:35,650
Wow, I cannot believe it.
628
00:35:36,375 --> 00:35:38,791
The sky is the limit.
The sky is the limit.
629
00:35:39,689 --> 00:35:42,623
What would it mean to get
the ultimate promotion?
630
00:35:43,210 --> 00:35:45,764
One more time.
You are in the Premier League.
631
00:35:47,386 --> 00:35:50,493
The Championship will suck
the positivity out of anybody.
632
00:35:50,631 --> 00:35:52,253
Four promotions,
is it possible,
633
00:35:52,391 --> 00:35:56,119
- or is the Championship
the toughest test--
- No, no.
634
00:35:56,257 --> 00:36:00,606
Wrexham is definitely back
to being the underdog.
This is going to be hard.
635
00:36:00,744 --> 00:36:02,194
It's a fairy story already.
636
00:36:02,332 --> 00:36:03,747
They don't want it to turn
into a nightmare.
637
00:36:03,885 --> 00:36:06,164
Why can't you just let me
I just want to bask.
638
00:36:06,302 --> 00:36:08,235
Would you let me just bask?
639
00:36:08,373 --> 00:36:11,307
We'll talk about
the Championship next year.
640
00:36:11,755 --> 00:36:14,275
You have to remember that
this is an incredible privilege
641
00:36:14,413 --> 00:36:18,590
that very few people
in the history of the world
get to actually enjoy,
642
00:36:18,728 --> 00:36:20,799
and you have to enjoy it.
643
00:36:20,937 --> 00:36:25,942
There have been just as many
tragedies as there have been
triumphs on the pitch.
644
00:36:26,080 --> 00:36:28,669
But the truth is we just have
to love every moment of it.
645
00:36:29,187 --> 00:36:31,119
What's most important to me
646
00:36:31,258 --> 00:36:34,295
is to be grateful for
the moment that we have
right in front of us.
647
00:36:34,433 --> 00:36:36,332
And I say this
with all honesty,
648
00:36:36,470 --> 00:36:41,199
I don't care about
the next promotion.
I care about this one.
649
00:36:44,202 --> 00:36:48,654
A few years ago, we were not
in the English Football League.
650
00:36:48,792 --> 00:36:51,381
They asked us
what was our goal.
651
00:36:51,519 --> 00:36:53,280
We're gonna take Wrexham
to the Premier League.
652
00:36:53,418 --> 00:36:55,868
And I said,
"The Premier League,"
and people laughed.
653
00:36:56,006 --> 00:36:57,042
Why not dream big?
654
00:36:57,180 --> 00:36:59,355
No one's laughing anymore.
655
00:37:01,460 --> 00:37:04,739
A back-to-back-to-back
promotion doesn't happen.
656
00:37:04,877 --> 00:37:07,432
But the only place
it could happen is here.
657
00:37:07,570 --> 00:37:12,920
Wrexham's the only place
that this kind of
historical miracle could happen
658
00:37:13,058 --> 00:37:16,993
because of the town,
because of the club,
because of its history,
659
00:37:17,131 --> 00:37:21,100
because of its sadness,
because of its joy,
660
00:37:21,239 --> 00:37:23,206
because of its perseverance.
661
00:37:23,344 --> 00:37:29,143
And all of that comes together
to make miracles,
and that is doing a Wrexham.
662
00:37:29,281 --> 00:37:33,354
And now we're one away
from the Premier League.
663
00:37:33,492 --> 00:37:37,945
It doesn't make
any sense. It defies
all rational thinking.
664
00:37:39,809 --> 00:37:43,502
But I haven't always done great
with rational thinking,
if I'm being honest.
665
00:37:44,262 --> 00:37:47,955
Irrational thinking
has served us well.
666
00:37:51,096 --> 00:37:53,650
So that's three.
667
00:37:53,788 --> 00:37:55,411
That is three.
668
00:37:56,653 --> 00:37:58,828
Could go for four.
669
00:37:58,966 --> 00:38:00,347
Four?
670
00:38:00,485 --> 00:38:02,038
- It'll be pricey.
- I feel,
671
00:38:02,176 --> 00:38:03,971
- next year's budget
in this thing.
- Yeah,
672
00:38:04,109 --> 00:38:06,007
- that's what I was going for.
- That's what they fill it with,
673
00:38:06,145 --> 00:38:08,182
- don't they, right? Yeah.
- All right. No, I'll help you.
Yeah.
674
00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:10,874
- I'm actually going that way.
All right.
- Yeah, I'm going this way.
675
00:38:11,012 --> 00:38:12,462
- Ah. Yeah.
- Yeah.
676
00:38:12,842 --> 00:38:15,534
You know what, I'll take it.
You're right, yeah?
677
00:38:15,672 --> 00:38:17,329
- No, you take it.
You should have it.
- We should just--
678
00:38:17,467 --> 00:38:19,435
- Yeah, I should.
- I have enough trophies.
679
00:38:19,573 --> 00:38:23,266
It's just
You know, it's crazy, right?
I just think yeah.
680
00:38:25,199 --> 00:38:27,857
- Let's leave it.
- Yeah, I think that's the spot.
681
00:38:27,995 --> 00:38:30,169
It looks nice.
