Liam, you are such a great representative of a Wrexham fan - always level headed and well grounded. As much as we wish Rob and Ryan were oil sheiks, they're not and honestly I love that they're using all their creative energy and power to boost this club's potential within their financial means. I'm curious how they will navigate the rising player wages next season.

I love the fact that they're using the documentary series + their star power to raise Wrexham's profile to a worldwide audience, and in turn boost the team so that they don't have to keep pouring cash in out of their own pockets. That's how you know they're here for the long haul.

@@carolewynn9407 Championship wages are around 12-14K a week. I believe the top 10 players at Wrexham make between 6- 10K a week. so I think Rob and Ryan will have to up the wage bill for new transfers for them to even consider Wrexham.

When league one starts, more than half the current squad will be over 30 years old. I feel that next season will be a rebuild season and it will take a couple of seasons to get into the promotion race. Need to get some young players for the future

Seriously, this kid needs to make a career off of this.

I’m not a Wrexham fan but it’s great to see someone so excited about their club.

Cardiff fan here, i.e., one who remembers some of the great matches we had against Wrexham. Indeed, my first ever Welsh derby was watching Cardiff beat Wrexham 3-2 in the FA Cup at Ninian Park in the 1970s with a last minute winner. Also, some great matches when Wrexham had Gary Bennett as striker. Personally, I think Wrexham's location and your owners' appeal means the club is well-placed for season-long loans from the likes of Liverpool, Everton, Man City, and United. Momentum is everything. Just look at Ipswich. In fact, I wouldn't be surprised if Wrexham overtook Cardiff and Swansea in the next couple of seasons. Good luck. Enjoy the ride! 👍

@TzunSu

Thanks for sharing your story! I agree with your points, and i think that the publicity boost to a young player is also something that will be attractive to clubs. If your 19 year old player goes on loan to Wrexham, not only does he get the experience that you get from any good loaning, but you're also massively increasing how known that player is, if he does well. Known players sell shirts, which will mean the players worth goes up if the parent club ever needs to sell him.

Thx for the update Liam! UP THE CHANNEL!! UP THE TOWN!!!

Wrexham FC have really captured the imagination of many football fans. I'm a Liverpool supporter born just down the road from Tranmere now living in Australia. The feel good factor thats running through the hearts of the Wrexham supporters has been nothing but a joy to me. I hope one day hopefully very soon watching Wrexham Fc walking onto the grass of Anfield in the prem. In a game that seems to be about money, Wrexham has been a breath fresh air. Roy Of The Rovers stuff for us older guys and may success carry on onto League One for Wrexham.

One of the other considerations will be how much can be done in the loan market. Wrexham is not too far away from Liverpool/Manchester, which makes it ideal for sending their rising academy talents. We've seen with Ipswich this season where they got Hutchingson from Chelsea and he's one of the key players for them getting promotion this season.

Well said about the promotion bonus. New sponsors signed on will overlook the bonus

Hi Liam, you’re a great presenter and love seeing your updates on Wrexham. Many congratulations 🥳 on achieving back-to-back promotions, the club and town has thoroughly deserved this success. Onwards and upwards for 2024/25 😁

First visit to your channel Liam, great content, keep it up

Great to the point content. I’m a super casual as a football fan (Southampton). Good stuff. I think you can afford to put in more of your off script thoughts, it’s engaging and genuine.

Earning promotion is wonderful, but I am dreading letting some of the players go (which is needed to improve the roster) because I feel like I have gotten to know them thanks to the documentary. One probable replacement is going to be particularly painful. Not everyone is going to get to make the journey to League One with Wrexham but this group will always be special because of what they achieved. Great content as always, Liam!

So grateful for your channel Liam! Congrats on all your success! From Pennsylvania

Leyton Orient fan here, interesting video, Id say from our experience this season, after being promoted from League 2 last season, you'll be in the playoffs with your current squad. You have a few players who are championship level already and most of the rest of your squad is league 1 level. It was no surprise to anyone that you got promoted this year again looking at that squad. You've done a great job in the Non-league building a squad thats capable to taking you up into league 1. Id be suprised if you didnt finish in the top 6.

Cracking video mate

Great video mate!

it's kinda cool that wrexham is having this kind of results it's like rob and ryan are playing some gm mode on fc 24.

I’m not a Wrexham fan, but their journey has been really helpful for a American like me to understand regulation and promotion.

I would like to see them play Burton Albion, Charlton Athletic and most of all Bristol Rovers. I am willing to wait if Bolton Wanderers go up to the Championship

What a well researched and passionate video. I'm enjoying following Wrexham's rise and this kind of video makes it easier. Thanks for sharing Liam!

incredible analysis, very thorough

Great analysis Liam! Like your deep insight to the inner workings of promotion for teams and the breakdown of the impact such a rise carries with it. From Soccer City, USA (Portland, OR), consider my wife and me subscribers to your channel. Excited to see what comes next for Wrexham A.F.C. Love that your name is also the same as our former CB and now defense coach Liam Ridgewell. That name is legendary in our city! #RCTID #WrexhamAFC

Congrats on the promotion, I'm a Spurs Supporter but I love seeing Welsh Clubs in the English Pyramid do well, I think you guys will finish mid table in League 1 next season and be in League 1 for a while.

Liam, I’d love to see you talk football in general with the Man U girl fan that only talks about Tottenham on her KZread channel.. what a great conversation that would be 🙏

Nice videos these past few days! You said the transfer stuff will sustain the channel during the summer, but I'd ask you not to totally neglect those grab-bag news updates every now and then! I love those

Wrexhm: Add three or more junior players on loan from Premier League Clubs..

Just discovered your channel, Liam - well done! I'm subscribing! My goals for the near future for the club are (in no particular order except for No. 1): 1. Sign Okonkwo 2. Shore up the defense and midfield 3. Sign another quality striker to help Mullin 4. We need a new training ground 5. Get the women in the English system if possible so we can grow that side to its best possible potential. 6. Keep promoting this club internationally as much as possible. This has truly become a global club, and that's no small feat for a lower-tier football club. Keep up the great work! Go Wrexham from South Dakota!

Dude, you're really good. I'm just me but I'm impressed

From a young fella to get to 8 minutes 29 seconds without a single "You know" is a sign he;ll go far. So, I've subscribed.

I’m still watching the video, but I have a question about facility requirements. Ben Tozer mentioned a training facility.. but what about capacity requirements of the Racecourse?

It will be interesting to see what happens with Okonkwo, I hope he signs for Wrexham but there is a lot of interest from European clubs and Championship sides. Arsenal will want to get as much as possible for him and that may just prove him out of the market for Wrexham. I think if we finish mid table next season that would be an amazing result. As much as I would love to see them reach the Championship you have to be realistic. Remembering that the higher you go the more chance you have of coming back down. I think we will lose Ollie Palmer, the distance from home to Wrexham as well as his age, I think could see him leave for Wimbledon, what we do in the summer will make or break us, losing some players that have been excellent for us, but just aren’t League 1 players will be hard but to stay on the trajectory they want to go then they are going to have to spend wisely. Keep up the great content Liam🇬🇧👍

Respect your respect for Sammie. He needs to be a prem player next season! Not a Wrexham fan but best of luck my friend!

I've been saying that we should sign watt since national league days in 2022, so I can agree with this strongly! Would also get Josh Coburn on loan from Middlesbrough, class 6ft 5" striker 🤩 looking forward to sheffield Wednesday away aswell...

League one you have to realistically stabilise and keep consistent for this division bring in players over a couple of seasons. People thinking Wrexham will have a chance of winning league 1 are going to be disappointed. Playoffs maybe, but it’s going to be a hard start. Mid table is going to be exciting in this new division.

Well done Wrexham… I’m happy for the loyal fans who get to see their club back in the football league

Liam any ideas who you’d love to see sign for Wrexham - raggett Cb at Portsmouth , definitely would be an upgrade . Mal Benning at shrews would be worth the money and they are struggling financially . Dan kemp ready made for league one decent striker , could work well with mullin .

I'm so excited!! WFC to the moon!!❤❤

Love the story behind Wrexham and wish the team and owners much success you guys disserve it. But do you think the owners can keep up the funding as like said in this video higher you go the higher the cost and if we talk about prem cost its out of this damn world, or do you think they will need to bring in new investors or look to sell the club to someone else? I hope they can do it as I can see Wrexham being the next rags to riches story.

ManU fan here. Would love to see Wrexham win League One in future! They are doing well 😎

Be interesting to see how wrexham gear up for this league. Your club is an anomaly in that it has higher attraction for sponsorship and players looking for visibility platform. Hoping you get straight up to championship to play Swansea and Cardiff.

Look I do not support Wrexham but you present this very well . i live in New Zealand I went to Wales once .. Is it still raining i?

Well done young sir

the best thing they can do is bring premier league players on loan that need minutes that they wouldn't otherwise get in their current squads. i did this in my wrexham playthrough in Football Manager 23 and it worked out just fine

Such good video, m8

First thing would be not being relegated again. A top 10 finish will be fenomenal. Promotion a fairy tale story. Just make sure to temper the expectations amongst the fans. Mainting in league one and steadily build from there is key in long term succes and promotions.

Do you think the local lad Davies will still be around next year? I hope so but I did not see every match this year

Besides those mentioned signings, McReynolds should target young Premier League guns in the form of LOAN DEALS. For example, I can see Gabriele Biancheri (17 y/o welsh kid from Manchester United reserves), as an excellent option to offer 1st team football for at least one season. He could become easily, if not a starter, an amazing extra lung for the attacking options. Has an amazing fang for goal.

Im a wrexham fan now let’s go 🔥🔥

Congrats! I get the feeling that Ryan Reynolds will not be sending a team out there next season to place in the top 12.

With what I saw in the second season of Welcome to Wrexham, where the real profit is in The Championship, league 1 and 2 there is not as much income compared to the second division, but nothing compares to being in the 5th division. Next season I hope Wrexham gets promoted, it would be crazy.

Not a Wrexham fan but id love to see them get promoted again next season and the season after again. What a great story it would be.

Peterborough fan here and Clarke Harris would be a fantastic signing! Easily 20+ goals a season striker

I’m gonna say they finish 9th next season. Nothing wrong with that at all in my books! You nailed it that there’s some big clubs in League One. Shit starts to get real at this level

2nd and 3rd leagues in the top 5 european countries are *THE* place to loan some prime real estate talents from the 1st leagues for development and playing time. Hope they'll get some academy jewels from the PL.

A season or 2 in league 1 will actually do them good. They need to build a bunch of stuff to compete at premiership level, slowing down the promotion advance will help that. They need an academy system, training grounds, and talent scouting. If they go to fast they are going to stall and go backwards.
