They had a very simple approach. Hired people who knew what they were doing. Prioritised getting the best available manager and best available striker. Realised the best way to cover as many losses as possible was though creating a documentary which also boosts the exposure of the club which also attracts a better standard of player. It's a genius approach I'm just hoping Will Ferrell and Paul Rudd buy my Cardiff City and do the same. Would be proud to be owned by Ron Burgundy and Brian Fantana

I could see Rob and Ryan selling off pieces of the club to their friends as the team moves up the leagues, raising money, profile, and spreading out the costs especially if they get to League One and higher. Think about having Will Ferrell, Paul Rudd, Hugh Jackman, and others as partial owners and investors in the club. It would be a way to keep the profile up in the years to come once this first blush of stardom for the team begins to fade.

I think that the biggest danger is expectation. The problem with this Kieran Maguire's analysis is that he focuses squarely on Wrexham attracting fans to the matches purely from the local area. North Wales doesn't have another professional team and with them now being a 90 minute drive from most of this part of the world, as opposed to the 3-4 hour drive in the 70s, the last time they had a decent team, there is scope for the club to become the regional flag bearer. If they can tap into that and get the success they're aiming for then that fan base will remain even if the owners decide to sell. But they need to get there first.

Ryan just sold Mint Mobile for 1.35 billion dollars, taking in a reported 300 million.

Comparing Wrexham and Salford is a bit bizarre. Historically Wrexham have predominently a third tier club, have made the quarter finals of a European competition and the redevolped Cae Ras will host internationals, albeit friendlies. This is a club with a massive history (record number of Welsh Cup wins) and has always had a fan base. Vastly different to Salford.

I think they can get to league one. Not next year, asking for back to back promotions might be a bit much, but i think that might kind of be where the level is at, based on stadium capacity and how costly the championship is. Clubs in the upper end of the championship pushing for promotion to the prem spend tens of millions. League one would be amazing and if they made it to the championship, that would be lovely given their history of 2nd division football in the 80s.

I don't think Premier League is an impossible dream. Yeah, it's a lot of investment, and it would take time, but that also means a lot of revenues if they continue growing the Wrexham brand to get more deals. Being very optimistic, we are talking about a 10 years journey, and that's enough time to solidify a strong following base and find ways to make the club more sustainable based on those new revenue streams beyond the initial funding. Ryan has proven to be a smart business man.

Congratulations to Wrexham afc to their fans and to their owners. I see the usual financial buzzards have started circling already. Making predictions on what should happen next based on a short term scalping solution, this is not the long term plan of any football or sports club. In fact if these plans were implemented the old story that dragged Wrexham down in the first place would happen again. Instead of which, these 2 guys have bought the club, used their significant financial and social media clout and fulfilled their first promise, watch other clubs now find the same backing to help them. It can only help all the leagues.

From a bromley fan, this is massive! Love this work and a big fan of the editing. Keep it coming

Agreed completely on every point you made. I'm a new fan from the States courtesy of the documentary, and I've been bitten by the bug. Mullin and the team feed off each other in the best possible way, and his connection with the town is deeply felt by the fans. Love it!

Seem to overlook the fact Wrexhams catchment area is the whole of North and Mid Wales. That was the attraction in buying it. The town maybe poor, but North and Mid Wales is a tourist Hotspot full of wealthy bored people.

Well done Wrexham from a chesterfield fan

This is one of the best takes I have seen on this. But there is precedent with Ryan in his other companies. He sold his stakes in Mint Mobile and Aviation Gin for hundreds of millions, but he agreed to stay a spokesperson and use his Maximum Effort marketing company as the face of both. I cannot see him selling all his full stake like those 2 examples since he really seems to love the team and community (as we all do now from around the world) but he is already working with the Ottawa Senators and a group of real estate developers to purchase them with a small stake but with the intention of doing a similar documentary.

Good luck in.league 2 and welcome back congratulations 😊 from a Brighton fan ..from goldstone and withdean era 😊

I actually support Wrexham since Liverpool are going fine

As a fan of a team in the league Wrexham have been promoted to, it’s the hope that can kill in this league. They can do it, quite easily, but you should never underestimate 2s competitiveness. Swindon, Bradford and Wimbledon have been stuck down there for years and they were premier league teams once. I don’t think it will be as easy as people think it will for them, but they are certainly favourites going into next season for autos

I also think their wage bill might not increase as much. Would you rather be an average Championship player, easily forgotten or ignored in a team no one cares about or you could become a legend in Wrexham with fans around the world. Today Mullin is one of the most famous and loved players in the world, had he stayed at Cambridge only the most diehard fans would know who is. Some players care more about legacy than playing in the highest tiers of the sport. Transferring to Wrexham will no longer be seen as a step backwards in a career so they wouldn't need to be excessively for it.

Look at what Bournemouth achieved with little money, a tiny stadium and small population dwarfed by nearby Southampton. Wrexham will no difficulty in attracting sponsorship money, their stadium with the rebuilding of the kop will be larger than that of Bournemouth and being the single club in North Wales gives them a larger fan catchment area than Bournemouth.

Congratulations on your promotion🎉

If they were to sell them once in the Premier league I still reckon Tiktok would keep them as sponsors. Big money up there.

Love seeing this, big grats the wrexham and the fans!!!! So happy for this!!

As an American it's wild to me to see ppl bash Rob & Ryan and how Wrexham is going on about this when every time I hear about English Football and the apprt throughout Europe and Africa everyone mentions corrupt governments and huge corporation, the Saudis, etc. But when it's a couple of guys trying to help a town and support ppl who kept their local team running just barely, then suddenly they're too big for their breaches and getting overrated.

Your owners are great but how about a mention or 2 for how good your manager has been because Notts were putting you under strain.

My man Ryan playing FIFA Manager create a club in real life

They will need to get savior with transfers, atm they are buying already established quality players and paying above market value they can do that in national league and probably league 2 but later on they won't be able to do that at a higher level. They will need a good academy which they haven't got now. The other problem is they seem like best friends with the manager and players it will be hard for then to sack Parkinson when the time comes

No mention of TV money which is a big part of every teams finance. Championship teams receive 4.5 million pounds, League One 700,000 pounds and League Two teams 470,000 pounds. The phenomenal world wide viewing of Wrexham will enhance the kitty available, changes to the percentage sharing of the kitty per division may need to be adjusted if viewing figures for Wrexham are outstripping Premiership clubs.

This will be the team to watch for the next decade congratulations to wrexham all of the states is behind you!!!

The two Hollywood actor owners, then add a successful Disney TV show and Tiktok sponsorship = this is new levels already. The revenue they raise through these three attributes alone will stabilise them as they rise. If they go to league 1 tell me how Burton Albion or Cheltenham compete against that. Championship how Rotherham or PNE compete and then the Prem how Bournemouth or Palace compete against it as it gets bigger and more popular worldwide? Could be a genius move from these guys or go tits up. Seeming more like the former than the latter with already a WW audience before entering the league. Impressive

As was pointed out in this video, the value of the club is linked to its owners. I think they are in for the long haul, particularly as they would find it difficult to sell the club for a good price, unless it is bought by other celebrities with the same universal appeal, but that is unlikely. They wouldn't want to sell it for a song given the amount of their own money they will have pumped into the club after the initial purchase. The Welcome to Wrexham series generates good money and will continue for a few years, but will no doubt have a used by date. The money they will invest into improving the capacity and quality of the Racecourse ground alone (will be an ongoing project beyond the replacement of the Kop stand) will be very considerable. The investment in new players to help climb the football pyramid will also add up to plenty over the years. If they ever reach Championship level they will have done very well, but that is a seriously expensive league to play in by international standards.

The owner of Aviation gin is the same person as the co-owner of the football club Ryan Reynolds, so of course, the gin would sponsor the club.

No one is fooled into thinking this is going to be easy or fast. The Americans full well understand the way sports teams rise and fall and rise again. It's not cheap, for anyone involved, community included, and the talk of future sales of the whole or portions only shows you thinking of MONEY ONLY.
