There's so much going on

at the club at the moment,

especially with the documentary.

It's sort of drawn the attention

of a global audience.

- I've traveled 250 miles today
to see the glorious Wrexham.

- We're here because of...
Because of the show, yeah.

What's
the overall British sentiment?

It's largely positive,
unless you're a football fan

of a rival club.

And then you absolutely hate it.

- Home fans to my left.

Away fans to my right, please.

The two sets of fans
pretty much at each other,

and it does kind of
make you the villain

when you've got more money than
everyone else in the league.

- The Hollywood owner club.

They're
a totally different club,

obviously, to when Ryan
and Rob bought them.

- It's almost like a...

An element to it
where it's not pure.

- A lot of jealous
people out there.

And we'd be the same.

If one of our rivals...
If this was happening to one

of our rivals,
we'd be absolutely... you know,

we'd hate it, we'd be gutted.

- There's a bit more
of an excitement to it

and I think a bit more
of a desire to win.

We're right up
there on the pedestal.

Everyone wants to beat us.

Everyone wants
to knock us down a bit.

I'm Mark Griffiths,
and I've been

doing commentary for Wrexham
since the late 1980s.

Mullin, right side of the box,

cutting inside,
running at his man.

It's a left-hand shot!

- There you go!

Mullin finds him.
Lee hits him!

My word, that was good.

Well, I'm from Wrexham.

I'm from Hightown in Wrexham.

Grew up here.

Got into football
when I was about nine

from my next-door neighbor
coming home,

and I'd be playing
in the front garden,

and he would have been
to the Wrexham game.

Supporting Wrexham's
in the blood.

I started off in hospital
radio in the late 1980s.

Now, hospital radio has had a
really impressive long history

in Wrexham, the town.

The Wrexham
Supporters Association

paid for a physical line
to be sent

from the racecourse to
the Maelor Hospital in Wrexham

purely for football commentary

for patients within a hospital.

That's lovely work.
He's got past his man.

And he drills a shot.

Yes!

It was a honey trap,
and was running hospital radio,

the broadcast section,
when I was about 21.

And I just purely
worked for the club.

And I've been doing it
for the club

for quite a long time now,
really,

rather than any sort
of outside entity.

If you'd come here
five years ago,

you would find
a fairly depressed town.

You wouldn't find people
bragging about Wrexham.

We've lost most of the markets.

We've lost
all those big industries.

We've lost most
of the breweries.

We've lost the mines.

We were negative enough
to feel like

we weren't allowed
to have nice things.

It took people
from outside to say,

actually,
you've got a lot of value,

you've got a lot of worth,
there's amazing things here,

to really stoke
that awareness within us.

This whole project has
been about community.

This whole thing is about
the town, not just the club.

No matter what
people say about us,

that's 15 long years
at our lowest ebb.

I genuinely believe
that we will get promoted,

having seen what
Rob and Ryan have done,

because they have been
transformative.

After some initial
struggles to start the season,

we have really settled in
and been playing

some fabulous football.

Got this!

Goal.

Yes, here we go.

Good. Better.

- We have excelled this season
by any normal metric.

We've been brilliant.

Ball comes in to the far post.

Ollie Palmer breaks
the deadlock for Wrexham.

Played really well.

Brilliantly.

We won seven straight games,

scored lots of goals.

Hayden shot to Paul Mullin.

And shot to
the top of the table.

To win it
for Wrexham, and he scores!

Who else but Paul Mullin?

Just listen to that noise.

They've done it again,
as Phil Parkinson's side

goes top of the league.

- Top of the league.

- Problem is,
there's this other bloody team

in our division who are doing
the exact same thing.

Notts County went off
like a runaway train.

Notts County are in front.

They score loads of goals.

They're having
their best start to a season

in the history
of their da-da-da-da.

Everyone's doing brilliantly.
They've recruited brilliantly.

They play brilliant football.

They are in every possible way
worthy and noble opponents.

And I wish they'd all fall
down a manhole and sod off.

- Across from Dean, which
we'll go through in a minute.

Langstaff... got to mention him
because he's got 14 goals,

and we've got to stop him
dictating the game.

We face Notts County
for tomorrow's game,

who've have had
a fantastic season.

You know, we win. They win.

Very rarely does either
team drop points.

And, you know,
it's been relentless.

We've got to be alive tonight.

If we're tight all
over the pitch,

those balls will be on
for the wing backs.

The most important thing
is that we prepare the team

properly and we just try
and stay very focused

on getting the job done.

There's no medals awarded
at this stage of the season of,

we've broke this record
or have done that.

That doesn't concern me at all.

The only thing
I'm focusing on is,

you know,
when the last ball is kicked,

that we're the team
lifting the trophy.

OK, thank you very much, lads.

See you down there.

Nope, sorry.
I'll tell you when.

Haven't been
blocking you perfectly.

- If you could just...
- Yeah, OK.

OK, I'll sit on the
couch if you want.

Yeah, all right.

Three, four.

- It's a song which is a tribute

to our super number ten,
Paul Mullin.

Mainly because we thought
we'd write the song

because he's one of us.

He's a working-class lad.

He engages so well
with the fans,

and the fans can relate to him.

He's a decent bloke, you know?

Nothing big-headed about him.
Seems nice.

I haven't met him myself,
but maybe one day we will.

Fingers crossed.

Until the song
comes out, anyway.

Yeah.

How have things changed for you

since "Always Sunny in Wrexham,"

the song, since you released it?

- It's just gone mad
since the documentary, yeah.

- We're getting stopped by...

- Yeah.

- Everybody, you know, children,

people from America, Canada.

- To sit on the
ground in a seat,

that same seat we sat in
for years and years and years,

and all of a sudden,
they're playing your song.

- We're getting
offered bigger gigs,

and we're getting more money.

That's always...
Actually getting money.

Not doing it for free.

- Notts County away,
it's a big game,

top of the table clash,
first v. second.

The big games are always
the ones you're excited for.

And if we do want
to get promoted,

we've got to go
and express ourselves.

- Hopefully, tonight we can
keep on our winning run.

It'll be a tough game.
They're a good team.

Obviously,
we lost to Chesterfield,

and it was
a disappointing performance.

And we can't let
that happen tonight.

We've got to go there.
We've got to win these games.

We've got to beat
all the teams around us.

We know we can beat the teams,
you know, around the middle

and the bottom of the table,

but these are the games
that we want to be winning.

Open the door.

Who are we?

Who are we?
- Red Army!

- Red Army!

- The interest
in Wrexham Football Club has

absolutely
exploded exponentially

since the takeover.

- It's astonishing from the
football club's point of view.

I mean, honestly, the supporters

of Wrexham at the away games
are phenomenal.

- We're going for promotion!

- You know, we're talking
5,000 supporters to away games.

We get people
driving four hours.

2 1/2 hours to go to Dorking.

- We've been driving
for over an hour.

- Long journey for me.
Come from Liverpool.

Back to North Wales tonight.

All the way
to Southend tomorrow.

Welcome to Meadow Lane for what

is a highly anticipated clash.

It's a fantastic crowd,

over 2,000 Wrexham fans
on a work night

going across country.

Wrexham! Wrexham!

Wrexham!
Wrexham!

Wrexham!

- Away games ten years ago,
when they switched off

the music when
the players came out,

it just dropped
to complete silence.

And I think of the contrast
between that

and what's now happening.

Got a minute yet.
Just start finishing up.

Yeah, OK, then, boys.

Notts County away...
Obviously, they're second.

We've gone top after
the win at the weekend.

It's an important game,
two big clubs at the level.

You know, we had three games
against them last year,

and all were keenly contested,
as you can imagine.

And this will be no
different tonight.

Their key players.
Langstaff's got 14 goals.

Smother the bastard's
life out of him.

- They have got
Macauley Langstaff,

who is just a goal machine.

He's different to Mullin.

Mullin gets involved
in all sorts

of different aspects of play.

Macaulay Langstaff plays
between the posts.

He's purely obsessed with goals.

OK, let's get
ready to rumble, boys.

- Come on then, boys.
- Here we go.

Yes.
- Come on, son.

Wrexham!

Wrexham!

Both sides will
be vying for those two

promotion spots this season.

And Phil Parkinson
will be really hoping

his side can unlock
the Notts County defense.

Wrexham!

Underway here at Notts County.

It's a highly anticipated clash.

It's first place, second.

An excellent atmosphere.

It's across, floated into
the area, and first chance.

And a great save from Howard.
Great save off the line.

And it was a big header
by dapper Langstaff

and a big save by Mark Howard.

Fucking hell, lads.

And in the end,
Ollie Palmer pounces Mullin.

Some space on the right
if he wants to use it.

- Palmer's going alone.
- Come on, Ollie!

Palmer shoots.

Drags it wide.

On the edge of the box.

It's a key to be organized.

One punt to the edge there,
they got runners here,

both forwards,
and Palmer squares it.

Must be a goal.
It is a goal!

And it's
Notts County strike first

in the top of the table clash.

And who else with a goal?

Number 15 for the season,
Macaulay Langstaff,

in the right place at the
right time, and not the start

that Phil Parkinson's
side will have wanted.

- Early exchanges...
A bit disappointed.

Notts County started
the better team.

Their key player
got the opportunity,

and he's taken it.

And now there's a lot
of work to be done.

Mullins, to Palmer!

Play in there with Jordan.

Hayden looking forwards.

Mullin off Cameron.
He's done well.

He's got passing options
coming into the box.

But he goes for it himself,
and he misses.

What a chance!

Maybe a bit
of frustration there.

Tozer saying he was coming
if he just held it up.

And he maybe had a point.

Decision-making not quite
there so far for Wrexham.

Can't blame Mullin.

Hasn't had
an opportunity all half.

- Football is about, you know,
when the moments come,

you know, taking
the key actions in the game.

And we've got the players
can hurt them.

But so far, we just
didn't take the chances.

What you think
so far of the first half?

- Terrible.
- Really?

- Absolutely terrible.
- Absolutely.

- Just miles off it.

It's 1-0 to
Notts County at the break,

while Wrexham haven't
been at their best so far.

Some strained efforts as
the players exit the field.

Don't... let's
not come off the pitch

and moan about it.

We've got to go up a level.

They got the goal early.

There's no one
to blame for that.

And it's important there's
a buy-in from the group now.

It's not about individuals.

It's about the team
working towards that goal.

Honestly, lads,
when we've passed it,

we've got a bit
of calmness in our play.

We've looked decent.

When we've forced it,
we haven't looked as good.

That's how we're going to play.

- When you play the big games,
you're fucking at work.

And we will carry
you off the pitch.

- Let's go up a notch.
Come on.

- Come on, boys, hey?
Come on.

- Come on.
- Come on.

Come on.
We know what we've got to do.

I don't feel that it
knocks them if they miss.

I feel it gives
them more resolve

to take the next opportunity.

We go to the end,
and we stick together.

We fucking stick together.

Welcome back
for the second 45 minutes.

Come on, boys.
Come on.

Give us that energy, son.

- Back to goal.
- Passes to Jones.

Yes, move!

They're out fucking side.

Fucking time you run.

Brilliant football by Wrexham,

but the flag is up.

Wrexham 0, Notts County 1.

- Isn't it typical?

We have the most remarkable
record-breaking season

in history.

Someone else does as well
at the same time as us.

They are remarkable adversaries.

The more successful we
are and the more of a threat

we become to other teams
and their ambitions, you know,

the more every team
we play puts on their best

performance of the season.

I imagine lots of people
watching this game

and probably willing
us on to fail.

Everybody wants to see
Deadpool in the mud.

They want to see
Rob McElhenney disappointed.

They want to bloody the nose

of the big fancy
Hollywood jerkoffs.

And, you know,
that's just an extra

challenge for us to deal with.

Well, Wrexham's hot streak has

suffered a bit of
a cool-down with a defeat

against Notts County.

A bit of a tough pill to
swallow for the droves of fans

who made the long trip
to support the Reds,

but one thing's for sure.

Supporters of other clubs
around the National League

are absolutely loving it.

Sports is such a...
Is so tribal in nature that

you're going to have supporters
of other clubs looking at this

club and wanting to cut us down

at every turn simply
in support of their own club.

And they're not necessarily
inclined to look

at the situation objectively.

That's the fun of sports.

Then, of course, there's
also cynics out there

and people who just
hear the story.

And they're just sort of
cynical without really

looking into it.

And they can fuck
all the way off.

I think
it's perfectly acceptable

to root against, say, Rob and I.

Yeah, the Hollywood
idiots definitely deserve it.

- I'm just going to be really,
really truthful about what

I think about AFC Wrexham.

- But I don't see how you
can root against a town

that has been through so much.

- This is a town that have
been through quite a lot.

This dream of being back
in the Football League,

it's not an entirely
greedy dream, is it?

If someone wants to come in,
and they want to romanticize

this town and say
these positive things

about this town
you're so proud of

and put it on the map,

I'm not going to be the one
to be bitter and jealous

about that just
because I'd be so

desperately wishing it would
happen to my football club.

Are Wrexham
going up this season?

- I don't know how
you don't root

for a town like Wrexham.

- See, like this is
our relationship, writ large.

I'm telling people to fuck off.

And he's saying,
well, hold on a second.

Now maybe there's a different
way of looking at this.

Maybe if we can
welcome more people.

- I agree
with your assessment too.

I mean, they can fuck right off.

But I... yeah, like,
I'm fascinated by how

that sort of
conversation happens.

Yeah, it's interesting.
- He's so nice.

He's so nice.
- Not too nice.

- No, not nice... kind.
- No, no.

Nice is in the South of France.

Nice.
He's very Nice.

- He's very Nice.

And you hear people
say they've got a lot

of money pumped into the club.

That's a good thing
for a lower league, you know?

They're not the big boys.
So I think that's a good thing.

- Every club at this level
needs an advantage.

- It's a hard league to be in.

So if you can get out of it,
well done.

- I mean, yes,
they've got a bit of money.

They're using it well.

They're doing what
they should do.

- Well, obviously, I think
everyone would want that sort

of investment in their club.

But, you know,
we'll look forward

to building Dagenham
in the future as well, so...

- You know, I wish I could
win the EuroMillions.

Then I'd do the same here.

Taking an honest look
at the people of Wrexham

and seeing that they probably
look a lot like you,

and they probably live
a very similar life to you,

and, yes, sure, on the field
may be your adversaries.

But in real life, you're
kind of on the same team.

- Much respect to Wrexham
for being

where they are right now...

Exactly the same position as us.

- Good luck to them, you know?

- Yeah, good luck to them.
That's what I say.

Wrexham! Wrexham! Wrexham!

From the top!

- I mean, good luck to them.
Good luck to them.

- Thank you.
- You like it?

- Well, you're the man.
- Like it a lot.

- He hasn't hit us.
- He hasn't hit us.

- Thanks, Paul.

- Paul, thank you.
