[Reynolds]
You remember the last episode
with Arthur celebrating

his 100th birthday
at the Racecourse?

Now, we know
what you'’re thinking,

why didn'’t we show the match,
so you could watch
as the team clinched

a heroic win just for Arthur?
Well, here'’s why.

Wrexham!

[commentator]
Cannon'’s got to be solid here.

And he isn'’t. Shot comes in!

- Oh.
- [crowd groans]

- What the hell was that?
- What was that?

- [commentator] Goodness me.
- [crowd] Oh.

[commentator] Tranmere win
at Wrexham. Well...

[Reynolds] We'’ve been doing
so well-- worked our way
up to third place--

but losses like this could ruin
our chances at promotion,

and this one definitely ruined
a nice old man'’s birthday.

But we'’re actually
getting ahead of ourselves here.

All this was much later on
in the season,

and we'’re not ready
to show you that yet.

Let'’s back up a bit.

Uh. A bit more.

This is a story
that starts long ago.

The year after Wrexham AFC
was founded,

153 Welsh people decided
to go on a journey

to protect their culture
and language from the English.

They hopped on a boat
called the Mimosa

and sailed many, many miles
to Patagonia to start over.

But what they came across was
a harsh and barren landscape.

Still they persevered,

working long and hard to build
a new home for themselves.

Since then,
these Patagonian settlers

have kept
the spirit of Wales alive,

even though
many of their descendants today

have never actually been
to Wales.

[Matias] This is Moriah Chapel,
and it'’s the oldest Welsh chapel
that still stands.

I'’m a direct descendant
from the first settlers

that came here in 1865.

I just always think
how scary it must have been.

There was nothing there.

The Welsh settlers
were so determined

and so resilient to protect
and preserve their culture.

They took Wales with them.

They brought it here, and they
built it back up from scratch.

To say that I am Welsh,
and to feel Welsh,

and to never have been
in Wales--

For me, it'’s embedded within me

because all the sacrifices
that these people made--

I wouldn'’t be here without it.

[David speaking Spanish]

David Mardones, "Hi, greetings
from Welsh Patagonia."

- Wow.
- Uh. "We continue to support
Wrexham from my group,

Patagonians of Wrexham
support group."

Brilliant. That is a nice one.

[David speaking Spanish]

[Rocio]

[mother]

Being here in Patagonia,
you'’re so far away
that you do feel detached.

Not only from Wales,
but from the rest of the world.

[Ker] When Rob and Ryan
learnt there was

a Welsh-speaking community
in Patagonia

and they speak Welsh
and maintain many aspects
of Welsh culture,

they were, frankly,
very surprised.

They were also surprised
that many of them
had never been to Wales.

So they invited them to Wales
for our biggest
national holiday,

Saint David'’s Day.

[video call rings]

[Reynolds] Hello, everyone.

We-We wanna fly you to Wales
for Saint David'’s Day

and to watch a Wrexham game
at the Racecourse.

[staff]

Yeah, I'’m leaving now.

- [staff] Good-- Good luck.
- Cheers, mate.

[staff] Work hard, son.
Good luck.

[Mendy] Keep winning.
Keep winning, boys.

[player]

[Mendy] A little bit, mate.

I was born in Gambia.

I lived there
until I was six years old.

For me, it'’s always been
a dream, you know,

to be able to
represent my country
in the African Cup of Nations.

AFCON is the biggest, um,
tournament in-in Africa.

It involves
all the best African teams
and great stars.

A lot of good players, uh,
from all over the world.

We have a lot of great stars

like, uh, Mo Salah, Sadio Mané
Victor Osimhen.

I'’m-I'm happy to be

the first player ever
to represent Wrexham
in th-the AFCON.

[Ker] When players are called up
for international duty,

it'’s obviously
a massive honor for them,

but, um, uh, they can'’t
play for us, the club.

So, you know,
we'’re thrilled for Jacob
to be going to AFCON,

but just wanna make sure that,
uh, you know, we don'’t suffer
in his absence.

- Have the best time.
Can I come with ya?
- [Mendy chuckles]

- Good luck.
- [Mendy] Not allowed
to bring anyone.

- Have a safe--
Do not get injured.
- [Mendy] I won'’t.

- Don'’t get an illness.
- [Mendy] I won'’t.

- Come back good.
- [Mendy] I will.

And come back
with more goals in your locker.

- [Mendy] I will. Definitely.
- Good luck, Mendy.

- [Mendy] Thank you.
See you later.
- [supporter] See ya. Bye.

[African song playing]

[Mendy] I'’ve never been
to Ivory Coast before.

It reminds me a bit
of Gambia, though.

It brings back memories
from my childhood.

I feel like I belong in Wrexham

because we share
the same mentality
and the same passion.

But, uh, my plan is, obviously,

to end in Gambia
when I retire from football.

And, you know,
going back to the motherland

and feel like, uh,
you are where you belong.

And-- And, you know,
it is very emotional.

[commentator 3] Welcome to
the Charles Konan Banny Stadium
in the Ivory Coast.

Can Guinea or The Gambia
find the win today?

A massive, um, thing
to be proud of.

Not just for me
and for my family, but for the--
My whole tribe, you know?

In Gambia, there'’s a few tribes,
and, uh, mine is called Manjaco
or Mandyak.

Me representing Gambia as well,

another Manjaco,
that'’s something
I'’m really proud of.

[crowd singing]

[crowd cheering]

I'’m super, super excited.

Jacob Mendy is starting today
for The Gambia.

Yes, Gambia'’s gonna win today.
Gambia'’s gonna win today!

[commentator 3]
Well, this is it.

The Gambia are
the lowest-rated side
according to FIFA

and they'’re in
desperate need of points
this time around.

Fadera. Switch wings.
Now there'’s
a little bit of room.

And there'’s not
a lot of men in the box.

He'’s found a shirt
in white though.

And a strike off goal
from Jacob Mendy.

Go, Jacob! Go!

[Mendy] Every time
I was looking to the fans,

you just see people dancing
and dancing and singing and...

[commentator 3]
To the byline he goes.
And thumps it in.

And a proper shot on target
for The Gambia.

Inside.
The ball back to Guinea.

And they'’ve got to take their--
Might they do so now?

Guilavogui into the middle!
And they may have done!

Guinea have opened the scoring!
Finally the breakthrough
is made!

And Guinea have beaten
The Gambia.

[Mendy]
We wanted to win that game,

and, uh, we-we did our best
and we put all our effort.

But people were still
supporting us and dancing and
rapping to us and cheering us.

And, you know,
I felt really proud.

When I was six
and I was a kid in-in Gambia,

I never thought
I'’d play for-- for Gambia.

Um, now I'’m here and, you know,
you just stop for a minute
and you think,

"I-- I got to represent
my country."

Right now, this is the peak.

I get to play for Wrexham,
get to play for my country.

It'’s a massive feeling, that.

Home.

- [organizer 1] Hello, everybody.
- [organizer 2] Hello.

[organizer 1] Hi. Hi, everybody.

[children] Hi.

Oh, I'’m super happy
that you'’re here today.

This is an exciting opportunity
'’cause we're gonna launch
a book.

[organizer 2] This book
that we'’re celebrating today,

called The Lucky Dragon,

is our first book in Welsh
and in English.

[Ker] Here at
Wrexham Football Club,
we are big advocates

for the preservation of Welsh
and Welsh culture.

So what we'’ve done is
partnered up with HP and
a publishing company called NABU

to find new and fun ways
to get kids

to engage with
the Welsh language,
uh, through technology.

So they'’re using a HP device

to color pages
of The Lucky Dragon NABU book.

Is it exciting?
Have you ever colored in
anything like this before?

No.

[Zoe] And we'’re going to select

one of the drawings

and print a one-off edition
for the school

with the selected drawing
on the front of the book.

How would you like to meet
and see some players?

Yes!

- Yes!
- [cheering]

[Ker] We'’ve asked players
from the men'’s and women's team

to come down and add to the fun.

"I am
the unluckiest kid in town.

I promise
I'’m telling the truth."

Well, I got so excited that I--
I felt like I wanted to scream

because, like,
I love the players
and I love Wrexham.

This here.

And he signed right there.

- [interviewer] Two signatures?
- Yeah.

[interviewer] How come?

I just asked him and he--
and he did it.

[cameraman]
Everyone look this way.

Three, two, one.

[all] Wrex!

[crowd cheering]

[Ker] An exciting game today
away to Newport County.

This is an opportunity
for us to go top, uh,
if we-- if we'’re successful.

Um, in other good news,

we'’ve, uh, we've heard
that Arsenal will not
be exercising their option

to bring Arthur back from loan.

He'’s staying with us
to the end of the season,

which is
a huge boost to everyone.

[commentator 4] Clarke

looking for
the run over the top.

Ben Tozer heads that one clear.

- Will Boyle'’s heavy touch.
- [crowd groans]

[commentator 4]
Well, the referee gave
the foul, I think.

[Parkinson]

[commentator 4] The referee'’s
got a decision to make now.

He'’s clearly won the ball,
but the same time,

he'’s followed through
to the man as well.

And he could be in trouble.

[Parkinson] Hey, tell him
it'’s not a red fucking card.

- [commentator 4]
Referee speaks to him.
- [Parkinson] No. No!

[commentator 4] Red card.

Will Boyle is sent off
after 17 and a half minutes
of this derby.

- He'’s won the ball cleanly.
- [referee] Listen.

- I am. I'’m calm.
- You need to relax
and calm yourself down.

- You need to leave him alone.
- Yeah, but can I
just say something?

- You know--
- Yeah, you need to.

[commentator 4]
Parkinson gets the yellow card.

And it'’s advantage Newport now
with Wrexham being down
to ten men.

[Parkinson] Yeah, I think
y-you'’re never out of a game
ev-even with ten men.

Football'’s littered with--
with comeback stories, uh,

and playing against
a bit of adversity.

We'’ve shown that ourselves
many times o-over the years.

So, I think the lads
have got that belief

that if we stick
to the game plan or what
we'’ve worked on in training,

whatever'’s happening
in the early part of the game,

we'’re good enough
to come back into games.

[commentator 4]
Delaney. Just outside
the Wrexham penalty.

Crosses. Chances left foot...

[commentator 2]
Seb Palmer-Houlden

runs in front of
the Wrexham supporters.

[commentator 3]
We'’ve seen Arthur Okonkwo
make some stunning saves,

but no goalkeeper
in the world is getting there.

What a brilliant header.

[speaks indistinctly]

[commentator 3]
Cleworth down the line.
Mullin can'’t quite get a touch.

He'’s done enough
to spin away from his mark.

That'’s good, covering defense.

[commentator 2]
For Wrexham, it'’s about
soaking up that pressure

and then take
the chances when they come
because that is so crucial.

[Parkinson] Yes, Mulls!

[commentator 3]
Paul Mullin ducks away,

goes to the long-range lob.

Townsend gets back to save it.

A stressful afternoon
for Paul Mullin.

[Parkinson]
Let'’s go then. Come on!

[commentator 3]
They just nullified
any sort of opportunity at all

for Wrexham to really try
and trouble them.

Fucking unbelievable.

[Ker] This is
our first loss of 2024.

We had the chance to
go top today, and Newport
County put a stop to that.

It'’s disappointing,
to say the least.

[podcaster] We were
really, really bad yesterday,
and you can'’t disguise that.

It was just crap.

There'’s a lot of pressure
on Mullin to perform.

He'’s doing his best.

Is his best good enough
at the moment? No.

But that'’s not his fault alone.

That'’s a team effort.

[Parkinson] Sometimes
things go against you so much

and the mountain is
too big to climb,

and it just was today,
what with those circumstances.

But we-- Listen,
we move on to next week.

[podcaster]
A disappointing weekend though.

We lost to Newport 1-nil.

That was pretty grim.

[podcaster 2]
And whichever way
you look at it.

There'’s a fifth league defeat.
I think seven in total
for the season.

[podcaster 3] Probably one of
the most uninspired
performances under Parky.

I'’d probably include
the Stockport hammering in that

'’cause at least we gave it
some sort of go.

[podcaster 2] Why are we
so bad away from home
compared to at home?

Wrexham,
the best-performing home team

and the worst-performing
away team.

43 goals and 35 points at home,

but just 11 goals
and 17 points on the road.

[commentator 4]
Penalty to Wrexham.

That was kind of predictable.

So, it'’s, uh, it's over.

[podcaster 2] It'’s a good
test of Parky'’s
credentials right now

because we don'’t lose games
in a row.

You know, if-if detractors
come out again, is this--
is this a mini crisis?

- [podcaster 1] Well--[stammers]
- A crisis if we lose at Salford

That'’s-- That's a mini crisis.

[commentator 5] Wrexham are
in desperate straits,

and need something remarkable.

Knocks it first time
over the top.
Tozer wins that well.

Evans helps it on quickly.

Vassell slips,
and Mullin'’s trying
to run through the middle.

[Parkinson] Go on, Mulls!

[commentator 5]
And he runs straight to Tilt.

[supporter]
Mulls, just knock it straight.

Let'’s go! Come on!

[commentator 6] Might be tempted

to change shape soon though
as well, maybe.

[commentator 5]
Yeah, it'’s not working.

[commentator 6] It'’s not far
from kitchen sink time, is it?

[podcaster 3]
According to the complaints
that'’s been leveled at the team

and Parky this season,
it'’s perhaps

a lack of willingness
to be flexible

when things aren'’t going right.

[commentator 5]
The Wrexham players and fans

are getting
really frustrated with him.

[Ker sighs]
So, after this loss,

that drops us down
to fourth place.

Um, and-and now we are--
we are in the playoffs only.

[podcaster 1]
Look at the squad we'’ve got.
Look at the budget we'’ve got.

Look at the money we'’ve spent.

We were told this squad
was being built for League One.

So, we need to get there.

If we don'’t go up,
that'’s massively disappointing.

[podcaster 2]
When you'’ve got Paul Mullin,

you definitely feel
there-there'’s a yard of pace
that'’s been lost.

You-You watch him
week in, week out.

You think he'’s not quite
as quick as he was.

Doesn'’t matter 'cause he'’s stil
a clever player,

and he'’s still-he's still
a natural goalscorer.

[Parkinson] Move the ball!
Quickly, nice and bright.

One and two touch.

[commentator 7]
It feels like an eternity
since we played at Racecourse,

and it'’s good to be home.

But now it'’s a test,
if only psychologically,

just for Wrexham
to remind themselves of how
strong a team we are, I think.

[commentator 8]
Keep the tempo. Oh. Oh.
All of us. Move it in quickly.

[commentator 7] Wrexham needs
to stop the run of defeats.

Carries it inside.

Evans got a chance to switch
to Barnett and does so.

- Wrexham are looking snappy.
- [crowd cheering]

[commentator 7]
A high line from Barnett.

Can Wrexham work
a through ball?
Yes, they can!

Mullin to Barnett
on the last defender.

Hits a shot!

- But it'’s saved.
- [commentator 6] Pity.

It was a game where I think
the performance level
was-was good.

We had, in the course of
the 90 minutes, so many entries

into the opposition penalty box,
but the moment didn'’t come.

[commentator 7] The final ball'’s
been quite poor, hasn'’t it?

Mullin couldn'’t
have done better there, but...

The longer that goes,
you could feel that Bradford
gained a little bit of belief.

[commentator 5]
Piling on the pressure.
We need to make these count now

[Parkinson]
I think the lads understand
we'’re gonna freshen the team up.

[Parkinson]

[commentator 7]
Would you make changes now?

[commentator 8] I don'’t know.
Do you take Fletcher off?
No, I don'’t think so.

[commentator 7] Absolutely.

[Parkinson]

[commentator 7]
They'’re preparing a sub,

and it'’s gonna be
brand-new signing Jack Marriott
on for Mullin.

Feels weird to be watching
the last ten minutes
going for the win

without Mullin on the pitch.

He'’s our talisman.
He'’s our-our sort of star man.

Do you think the injury
that he suffered in-in preseason

maybe affected him
a little bit more
than-than he let on?

When we'’ve got
everyone together--
we'’ve got everyone fit--

when everyone'’s firing,
then we'’re-we're
a different prospect.

And I think Paul-- You know,

I know from talking to him,
he'’s disappointed

with-with the way
the season'’s panned out
for him personally,

but I think there will be ebbs,
there will be troughs.

At some point, probably,

we'’re going to have a bad season
where things are a challenge.

And I think it'’s
incredibly important

that we all collectively
are mentally prepared for that.

[commentator 7]
O'’Connell heads it
into Lee in midfield.

Put under pressure by McDonald,
who seems to be holding him.
Surely is holding him.

Ref hasn'’t given it.
And Cook'’s one-on-one.
Can he finish?

Oh. Okonkwo gets there.
And then the rebound goes in!

And Wrexham go behind
with 15 seconds left.

[podcaster 1]
As we approach three years
of the Rob-and-Ryan era

there'’s an expectation
on Wrexham to win every game.

It really is crisis mode
for Wrexham right now,
isn'’t it?

[commentator 7]
It'’s a long time since Wrexham
failed to score at home.

[podcaster 3]
With this loss, Wrexham dropped
to fifth in the table,

and the clubs below us
are quickly narrowing
that points gap, aren'’t they?

We'’ve had three years
of pretty much un--

uh, untrammeled success,

and this is probably
the first time
that our form has dipped.

Um, I'’ve been struck by,
uh, the speed at which
people have looked

to call for
the head of the manager
or write off players.

He'’s a dinosaur.
He won'’t change
the way he plays.

He won'’t bring substitutes on
till 20 minutes from the end.

He'’s made changes too late,
in my opinion.

With Mullin--
Mullin and Fletcher up front--
they'’re getting tired.

A new-- A new manager. Boom.

We'’ve got very used to-to years
of easy living,

and now the hard times, um,
are pinching a little bit.

[Parkin] Make sure you don'’t get
your fucking heads down.

You can'’t carry on
winning, winning,
winning, winning, winning

like we have been doing
for two and a bit seasons.

There is gonna be bumps
in the road at some stage.

The strength of the squad
and the character of the squad

is how you come through
them bumps in the road.

[podcaster 1]
We have to turn this around.
It'’s as simple as that.

What we don'’t need
is three away games
in nine days.

So, of course,
that'’s what we've got.

[commentator 11]
Wrexham come into this game

on the back of
four straight defeats.

Phil Parkinson'’s response:
he makes four changes.

Ryan Barnett and Paul Mullin
dropped to the bench.

[Griffiths] That'’s gotta feel
like a massive blow

to a star player like Mullin.

There'’s a saying people say,
"If-If they'’re missing chances,

don'’t worry about it
with center forwards."

But for me,
it'’s all to the opposite.

If I'’m missing the chances,
then it'’s time to worry
because it'’s not what I do.

I sort of felt like maybe '’cause
I hadn'’t scored for a few games,
gaffer lost faith in me.

I think that'’s sort of lit
a switch in me to take it
on the chin and get on with it.

But it'’s not about me.
It'’s all about
the team'’s success.

- [commentator 11]
Young has a look up.
- [commentator 12] Young signals.

- Sweeps it into the net!
- Yeah!

Wrexham take a deserved lead!

James McClean lunging in
at the near post!

[podcaster 3] So often
this season, we'’ve been
rubbish away from home.

Finally at MK Dons we'’re good.

We'’re great, in fact.

[commentator 11]
...in the box, drills it.

The keeper makes a good save...

[podcaster 3] Yet we still
can'’t find a way to win.

[commentator 11] Payne,
25 yards out, punches it in.

A nice little clip
around the corner where there'’s
a chance, and slams it in!

- Wrexham have gotta be
so disappointed.
- [commentator 12] Yeah.

[supporter 6]
Too fucking easy here!

[podcaster 1] Been so many
missed opportunities

away from home this season.

[commentator 12]
Wrexham draw at MK Dons.

[podcaster 3]
I feel like I should be happy
with a draw, but I'’m really not

It just feels like a loss.

It feels like
we'’ve dropped points.

[commentator 12]
We'’ve got to keep this
into perspective, guys.

That was
an excellent performance,

but you look at Phil Parkinson
looking so frustrated.

We should have won that
by a mile.

[podcaster 1]
There just seems to be now
this nervousness

in a group that
desperately needs to find
some confidence again.

There'’s that seed of doubt
now with Wrexham that we know
we can be beaten.

[Griffiths] Last time
we played here, we lost 4-1.

Mendy back from
international duty.
Crosses right-footed.

It'’s a hell of a save.

Tell ya what...

[commentator 13]
It'’s dinked to the far post,

dangerously driven in,
and it'’s there.

I think it'’s Johnny Williams
who taps it in.

Fucking hell!

[commentator 14]
A beautifully-worked free kick.

[commentator 15]
Gillingham are celebrating

- like they'’ve
just won the league.
- [whistle blows]

[commentator 14]
There is the final whistle.

- Wrexham lose on the road again
- [cheering]

[podcaster 5]
It'’s a difficult week,
maybe, as a Wrexham fan.

Yeah, it'’s not good, is it?

You know, I'’m getting messages
all the time

of people that have
put bets on us to go up
and saying should they cash out

and, you know,
"Have the wheels come off?"

And all that sort of thing.

We'’re just a bit cursed
right now.

Normally, I'’d feel confident
we can get a result

against one of
the worst teams in the league,
even away from home.

But at this point, I can'’t say
I am that confident.

[commentator 16]
Another away game,

another distant journey.

Wrexham away to
Forest Green Rovers.

Forest Green Rovers
second bottom of the league,

who are looking to go up
automatically.

We'’ve got to try
and put away teams that are
down the bottom of the table.

And so Phil Parkinson
has rotated the team around.

Paul Mullin comes in
for Steve Fletcher.

Young-- What a mistake
by Young, and now Wrexham
are under pressure here.

The ball played in
round the back of the defense.

Osadebe hits it,
and goodness me, scores.

[crowd cheering]

Wow, make a mistake
and immediately you'’re punished

Right now, we are in
the lowest point
of our entire tenure.

I'’m not a football expert.
So what the fuck do I know?

But I can'’t--
No one can seem to figure out
what is going wrong.

Certainly, our away form
has been a little trashy,

but goddamn it, I love this club
with every cell in my body,
and I wanna--

It'’s like I die when they lose.

[commentator 16] There'’s not
much time left. The ref--

[commentator 17]
That'’s gotta be a penalty.
Yes, it is.

- Awful challenge.
- Mullin was after it.

A two-footed challenge,
just lunging in.

[commentator 16]
Mullin with the penalty.

He sets himself, steps up.

Scores!
Wrexham get the equalizer.

Blows for the final whistle.
The 93rd-minute equalizer
for Wrexham.

[sighs] I don'’t know though,
Neil, I mean--

That is from us
giving away a silly goal
in the third minute

to us just not putting
enough threat on Forest Green.

Frustrating.

We just have to do better. Um...

And I think that Rob
and I need to show our face.

We need to go to the town
and go to the Racecourse
and just be there.

We got work to do,
but we'’ll figure it out.

Okay, bye.

[Reynolds] Remember
our Welsh friends in Patagonia?

Let'’s get them to Wales.

[Rocio]

Wrexham! Wrexham! Wrexham!

[David]

[Patagonia fans
speaking Spanish]

[fans laughing]

[Paul Jones]

[both laugh]

[David speaking Spanish]

[Paul Jones] I got David
the shirt last year.

I posted it in
the local post office
in Wrexham.

The pure excitement
on his face came shining through
when he got it.

I was so, so please when got it.

[speaking Spanish]

[Paul Jones]
It strikes a chord with us here,

knowing that we'’ve got friends
on the other side of the world.

They think about Wales
and where they came from.

And we think about them too.

[David]

[Reynolds]
Look, the truth is our boys
are a little down right now.

We haven'’t been playing
our best, and that can
take a toll on morale.

Not just on the team
but throughout the whole town.

So we'’ve sent in the big dog,
Mr. Rob McElhenney.

I wish I could there myself,

but unfortunately,
I'’m currently ensnared
in an edit suite

making sure Rob doesn'’t
seem better than me in Deadpool,

which I just unfortunately
had to cut him out of.

Is this how he finds out?

[fan]

Of course.

[McElhenney] It felt like

the right time to visit Wrexham

and spend some time
with the team and the people.

Do you like the football?

There'’s also a rumor
going around

that the son of
a close personal friend might be
coming to town for a visit.

- Cheers. Thank you.
- Of course.

I love Wrexham.
I consider it my second home.

I think it'’s just
one of those places
that just draws you back

and always welcomes you back.

But it felt like morale
had really dropped
at that point,

and I was--
I was really concerned.

So we wanted to go down there
and show our support.

- Good to see ya.
- Good to see you, buddy.

- Good luck tomorrow.
Good to see ya.
- Thank you.

I can'’t wait for
the game tomorrow.
How you feel?

I'’m good.
Are you gonna be there?

- Yeah.
- Okay, good.

I'’m sure I'll come.
It'’ll be 4-nil?

Fuck these guys, right?

[laughs]

There'’s Tommy.

Okay, the haircut.
You changed the haircut?

As a cochairman
of a football club,
it'’s good to show your face

and give some support
in person, especially when
they'’re struggling a bit.

One of the things that
we love most about this team
is their character.

So it'’s important for us
to remind them that
we are 100% behind them.

[children] Hi!

[McElhenney]

[laughter]

[McElhenney] Here we go.

[reporter 3] No pressure.

[reporter 4]
Welcome, Prince William.

[overlapping greetings]

Um, so Prince William
is here in Wrexham today
because it is Saint David'’s day,

which is obviously
the Welsh sort of
national holiday.

We don'’t get the day off
on Saint David'’s Day,

which is a bit of a swizz.

As Prince of Wales--
Prince William--

he'’s gotta come
and press the flesh,

kiss babies and do
all that sort of business
that princes do.

Has the journey been
as exciting as you--
as it looked on the outside?

[McElhenney]
It'’s far exceeded anything
we could'’ve ever imagined.

That'’s great. It's incredible
what you guys are doing.

You know, for us, it'’s great
that Wrexham football club has--

and Wrexham as a whole--

has become a place
that the Royals
put on their itinerary

when they'’re coming
to visit Wales.

Look! Humph, how are you?
It'’s been a while.
Good to see you.

[Ker] And you. Welcome.
Welcome to the--

[McElhenney]
Can I point something out?
Because people are like,

-"Rob must be 5'’2"."
- [laughter]

I want you to look at something.
Ryan is giant.

- We'’ve got a bit of a--
- Look at the--
This is the ceiling.

- I can touch the ceiling.
- Look where he is.

These are giant men that I have
to stand next to.

Giant men.

When we first met,
we were both probably--

- Well, you were
probably that big.
- You were always that high.

[Ker] I went to school
with Prince William.

I have known him
since I was seven
or something like that.

I mean, we literally
shared a bedroom
from probably seven till ten.

[Prince William] Did you think
when you started out

on the crazy idea with Rob
that it would end up like this?

No. No. No.
I mean, Rob was like,
"We should buy a football team."

And I was like... [laughs]

Then he bought one. [laughs]

[Prince William] You give
so many football fans

whose team maybe aren'’t
in the glory days that they
want to be-- or used to be--

the hope and the optimism
that one day you can be back
in those echelons again.

- So...
- [Harvey] Yeah.

Wrexham'’s well and truly
on the map.

[podcaster 3]
Well, Andy, it appears

some royalty have arrived
in Wrexham.

The Prince of Wales
has been spotted in the Turf.

[McElhenney]
You know what'’s easier?
A shot of Four Walls Whiskey.

[podcaster 3]
And the prince of Wrexham,
Rob McElhenney, is also here

for our home match
against Accrington Stanley.

He will be unveiling

the temporary Kop'’s
new sponsorship,
the Fourth Wall.

[McElhenney] Wow.
That'’s a stand now.

Like the little hints
from the original Kop.

- [McElhenney] Yeah.
- The little edges
in the background.

[podcaster 4] We hope it brings
a little luck to the club

after some average performances
in recent weeks.

[Matias] So, we went
to the parade.

Someone from the staff
comes to me, and he'’s like,
"Here'’s your flag."

"My flag?"

"Yes, you'’re holding the flag."

"Like the flag?
The Welsh flag?" "Yes."

And he gives me a huge flag.
As tall as me.

So I was already like,
"Okay, okay, okay. Keep it
together. Hold it together."

[Rocio]

[Matias]

[David]

[presenter] I'’d like to welcome
Wrexham Council'’s guests,

who have come all the way
from Patagonia.

- Bienvenido...
[chuckles] ...a Wrexham.
- [cheering, applause]

[Rocio speaks Welsh]

[cheering, applause]

[Matias] And then
the singer comes along,
and he starts singing.

And I was like,
"Okay, I'’m done."
I just grabbed David.

David was next to me.
I grabbed him really hard.

He was also crying,
and I started bawling,
crying my eyes out.

I was like, "Okay, just let it
go in the middle of the square."

[Rocio speaking Welsh]

[Griffiths] It'’s a beautiful day
at the SToK Cae Ras

as fourth place Wrexham prepare
to take on Accrington Stanley.

[speaking Spanish]

[Griffiths]
It'’s a hugely important match

because given Wrexham'’s history
of failure in the playoffs...

[commentator 9]
Grimsby look to have won it!

...we can'’t afford
to remain outside
the automatic promotion spots.

With our away performances
continuing to offer us nothing,

this home game is
an absolute must-win to get us
back into the top three.

[indistinct chanting]

Wrexham, Wrexham, Wrexham!

[Parkinson] I think today
is about fucking for ourselves,

putting
a complete performance in.

A complete performance.

So let'’s go and win.

Playing at home
makes me feel powerful at times.

You know, it makes me feel like
we can be unstoppable

if we get on top of teams
and play the right way.

And I always feel
like going on that pitch

that no matter
what the score is,
no matter what time of the game,

we can always win,
and I can always score a goal.

Ultimately, the responsibility
then falls with me

because I'’m the one
who hasn'’t been scoring.

I wanna say this shit outright.

It sticks in my fucking throat
how these cunts celebrated
on the pitch

when they beat us
at their place,
and it fucking really does.

Oh, fuck it. There is
no mercy here today, right?

I don'’t f--
I want everything bang on
with and without the ball,

and go kill
the fuckers off, right?

That'’s fucking it.

- Fucking come on, boys.
- [Parkin] Come on, boys!

[Parkinson] Let'’s go win.

[Parkin]
You'’re fucking beautiful.

[commentator 10]
Welcome to the commentary

of Wrexham
versus Accrington Stanley.

Wrexham fans
all around the stadium

waving their scarves.

[fans chanting]
Wrexham! Wrexham!

It'’s a great sight
and a nice way to whip up
a bit of atmosphere

before the game begins.

[Griffiths]
Wrexham have won only two
of their last nine games.

They'’re surely eager
to redeem themselves today.

[commentator 10] Let'’s get back
to normal service, eh?

Mullin gets us on the way.
Back to Cleworth.

[fans chanting]

O'’Connell goes over the top.

- Palmer looks offside.
- [Griffiths] Great ball.

[commentator 10]
There'’s no offside!

Palmer, in the box,
right-hand side. Drills it!

Good save with the feet
by Vitek.

[McElhenney]
He wanted that all the way.

Let'’s get 'em! Come on!

McClean, punching it

to the corner of the box.

Cleworth still there.
Barnett'’s outside it, uses him.

Barnett sweeps across it.

- Yeah!
- [McElhenney] Yeah!

Fucking come on!

1-nil, Mullin. Ha-ha!

[commentator 10] Mullin scores!

His 93rd goal for Wrexham.

[cheers]

Simple, wasn'’t it, though?

[Mullins]

Wrexham!

[cheering]

[McElhenney] All right.
That'’s how we get it started.

[commentator 10] Shipley'’s
struggling against Barnett.

That'’s the recipe for trouble
for Accrington.

Boyle wins ahead.

Left over the top.
Difficult for Mullin to take,

but he'’s into the box,
and he hooks it!

So close. That was superb.

That was fucking nasty.

Absolutely superb by Mullin.

Center backs up the pitch,
trying to get hold.

Oh, hang on a second.
McClean picks a pocket.

And now Mullin'’s running at
the last defender.

Hits at the edge of the box.

- Yeah! Yeah!
- [fans cheering]

One goal.

[fans chanting, cheering]

[fans] Wrexham!

[McElhenney] He'’s back!

You know what I said
about getting revenge?

- Yeah, yeah.
- I think-- I think we are.

The weak swinging corner
from Elliot Lee.

Handled well by Tommy Lee.

Cannon feeds it back to Elliot
Lee, the taker.

- Yeah!
- Yeah!

Whoo-hoo! The Mullin hat trick!

Hat trick!

[cheering]

Wow.

That'’s why he's the greatest
footballer in the world.

Whoo!

[fans chanting]
♪ Super Paul Mullin! ♪

[chanting] ♪ I just don'’t think
you understand.♪

[chanting continues]

[fans] Wrexham!

[whistle blows]

[commentator 10]
That'’s it. Wow.

Well, that was a real case
of noble service being resumed.

4-nil for Wrexham.

A brilliant performance.

A hat trick from Mullin.

And that was terrific.

[Ker] We finally take
all three points,

lifting ourselves
out of the playoff spots.

[fans chanting]

[McElhenney sighs] Goddamn.

- That'’s gotta feel good, huh?
- Yeah.

- Oh, that'’s gotta feel good.
- Big win. They played very well.

Go have your beer. I'’ll come
talk to you afterwards.

Everybody had a great game.

That'’s incredible

when that all comes together
like that.

[Ollie Palmer]

I did. I said 4-nil, didn'’t I?

It'’ll be 4-nil? Fuck these guys.

We put up the fourth wall--

The Four Walls fourth wall.

[Ker] I think
one of the key factors

of the end of the losing streak
has been the return home
and our fans,

who support us
through thick and thin
away from home.

But at home,
definitely are our 12th man.

The new temporary Kop stand
adds 2,500 supporters,

and their voices make
a huge difference.

But probably more importantly
was Paul'’s goal.

Because strikers in particular
thrive on confidence,

and confidence
comes from scoring goals.

[Mullins] I wanna score
'’cause I wanna win.

I say many times, I don'’t care
who scores the goals
if we can win the games.

And that'’s what I aim to do.

Every team goes through
spells like that.

Thankfully, today we'’ve managed
to score quite a few,
and I enjoyed that.

Yes! Yes! Yes!

[Ker] And so, yeah, you can'’t
ask for a much better way

to kind of break
a little bit of a hoodoo
than scoring four at home.

[McElhenney] It turns out
you'’re pretty good luck,

so we might have to fly you
out here for every game.

- Nice to see you.
Nice to see you.
- [Rocio laughs]

Congratulations.
What a great game.

- Nice to meet you.
- Nice to meet you.

[speaking Spanish]

[Reynolds]
Whether we get promoted or not,

there'’s something magical
about a place that draws fans
from Patagonia...

♪ Olé, Olé, Olé... ♪

...a kid from Gambia,
TV star from Philly
and the Royal family together.

And to be able to bring
people together like that

is a pretty special thing.
