Fozzy, you're being modest. The Notts penalty save alone made sure you'd be in Wrexham's history forever. The fact that you helped the club get back to the Football League is just icing on the cake.

@@theHerefordboys That's making the huge assumption that he wouldn't have saved it regardless of being off his line, (which no-one could argue he wasn't). If it had been ordered to be retaken, there's the chance the striker would have hit it wide. Even if they'd scored, they would only have drawn the game. There's no certainty that Notts County would have then gone on to be promoted whilst Wrexham had to go into the playoffs, grow up, that's football !

Being a guy from California that's been a fan of Football since only 2015/16 or so it's been so fun to watch this Wrexham journey and at the same time learning more about people in the UK and Europe in general. I've come to realize without a doubt there are so many misconceptions about almost every culture and sport alike. I know it sounds obvious but we're all much more alike than you would think. I am a Chelsea fan because I figured I had to pick a Premier League team but I've watched Rob McElhenny's show 'Always Sunny' for almost half my life so you bet your ass I feel obligated to root for his team. If it wasn't for Rob this doesn't even come close to happening IMO. Anyways, Cheers to Ben Foster and the whole Wrexham squad, I can't wait to watch Season 2 of Welcome to Wrexham. 🍻

Lol the poor keeper who got injured😂😂

Love to hear those after-game stories. Congrats!

Fozzy the dog eating everyones 'leftovers' haha, what a gift by the way. The amount of gloves you've given away in your career cherished and loved by every fan that now has them. It's hard to believe that being gifted a glove could feel so special but it definitely does with this glove.

Ben Foster. Legend, saver of goals, giver of gloves, a man who takes no prisoners (unless they're in possession of "Drunken cuisine") all round nice guy and much like Michael Jackson, has one special glove. What an amazing effort from yourself and the team, the good people of Wrexham must be floating 10ft off the ground and it's been a long time coming. This is thanks to the team, the supporters, the ground staff and the cleaners, the caterers, the Publican (Wayne), the owners, management, and anyone else I have forgotten to mention, Congratulations, you absolutely deserve it. Love from a supporter in New Zealand.

Bolton fan here. I know how good it feels for fans when players go out and celebrate with you. Just secured league 1 play offs and the lads went to end of season awards and then came into the town centre into the bars and everyone was just buzzing to see them and celebrate with them.

Big man.........I just love watching your podcasts. Im actually buzzing with you. 😂 Im a Celtic fan but I have also been following Wrexham this season.

Me being from America I’m not the biggest football fan but I love Ben foster he’s such a genuine guy and he’s getting me into the world of football slowly but surely

Ben deserved this, I'm happy to see you're having fun in this club.

What a last couple of months it's been for you mate. Who could have ever predicted that? And because of KZread we've all got to tag along for the ride. Fucking brilliant. What a time to be alive, eh?

Im going to be completely honest. I was never into football⚽ growing up here in America. I never had the sports channels growing. We were way to poor for cable even. And as i was getting older i just looked past it just because i figured thats something u have to be introduced to when your a kid. You learn the sport and you know who your favorite club is. Im sure this sounds stupid, and sorry if it does. But when "welcome to wrexham" came out it looked interesting. Like this will tell me what this game is all about. And the fact its about a team in wales made it great for me. My mothers like great great grandparents are from wales. And its part of my ancestry i was always fascinated with. So i watch the show and i have to say. I truly love your town, country, your fans. The dedication that your town and fans rally around this team is incredible. And i love you guys just as much. Im so happy you guys got promoted. You all really eared it. And im so happy for rob and ryan. But im happiest for the town of wrexham. Always loyal. And im am to. I love soccer now. But only watching you guys. My dream vacation was universal studios Florida. But now i want to come to wales spend some time in wrexham and see the town and i want my first real in person soccer game i watch to be wrexham. And pop in to Ireland for visit. Maybe do an ancestry test and find some relatives that might still be alive in wale and ireland. Hopefully ur still play for them in a few yrs. Sry such a long winded message. But that just it. You made a random person in a small town in Pennsylvania who never liked ⚽ into a big fan. Thank you and ryan and rob and your team. You should all be proud of that. Just thought you should know. You gave me something to root for. Keep win. " LETS GO WREXHAM!!! "

Sounds like a riot. Love the story told from Ben's point of view.

I seriously can't get enough of these stories.

As a Toon fan, I am so happy that you joining us wasn’t meant be and we got to join you on this dream of us all!

Ben, I'm in America, and was very much an ignorant American thinking soccer (football) was one of the most boring sports ever. 90+ minutes to end in a 0-0 tie? Preposterous. Who even wants to watch that? Then of course Ryan and Rob do Welcome to Wrexham. I checked it out wondering who two celebrities with no experience would handle managing a professional sports club. I was captivated by the end of the season. The fans really sold me on why football is so treasured and enjoyed. The editing of the matches was dramatic and exciting. I could start to pick up on the subtle nuances of what makes the sport way more challenging than it first seems. Then I found your vlogs recently and have been watching the run up to the promotion. The enthusiasm you have is unparalleled. You're absolutely right that people want a peak behind the curtain. Seeing how humble and passionate the lads are is truly an honor and appreciated. Taking this sport, league, and team that's an ocean away, an entire culture away, and making it not only accessible but engaging and exciting for someone like me is exactly what the internet should be used for. Connecting communities and people. I live in a town where our American Football team was awful for decades, and we're starting to become a recognized and respected franchise again. I'm so glad the Wrexham fanbase and staff and players stuck it out. I know what it's like paying your dues and finally feeling rewarded. Thank you for sharing all that you do and being the utter ambassador that you are for the sport, the league, and the team.

Wba legend, well done Fozzie
