Original subtitles

That's it. Good touch.

That's what we're looking for, yeah?

Rob, he was our number one.

You can't lose your job to injury.

Mark stepped up,

and he's gotten us through this entire season--

through the entire season.

Mark has only lost two games.

And then Rob was healthy, so Rob came back in.

Good, Rob.

And a strong hand by Mark Howard.

Go!

Good.

Lain-O is a really good shot stopper.

Obviously, I've only seen him play five or six times

this season, but in training, the saves

that he does make is really good.

Ooh! Good save.

Big save, Rob.

When Rob did get back in the team,

I've not been one to moan or argue

or complain about those sort of situations.

We've all got our own, uh, capabilities

and strengths and weaknesses.

I'm not here to complain against it.

I'm not here to fight against him.

I'm here to support him and help him.

Welcome to beautiful Hayes Lane,

where tenth-place Bromley will host the league leaders,

Wrexham.

And it's into the arms there of Lainton.

And I just wanted to comment, actually--

Rob Lainton hasn't had that much luck at Hayes Lane.

During the COVID season, um, he suffered an injury

in a collision with James Alabi.

It's a ball round the corner,

looking for the run to James Alabi.

It's gonna get there.

Massive collision. No.

Rob Lainton is down and not moving.

He was down for approximately half an hour.

He was taken to hospital,

and, thankfully, he was all right.

And then, uh, last season,

Wrexham returned for that nil-nil draw,

and, uh, he went down again and got another injury

that day and had to be treated.

Jordan Davies, the ball goes through to Coulson.

Lainton with an excellent save and Lainton again!

And the ball's gone over the bar.

Rob Lainton puts his body on the line every single game.

He'll certainly want a less eventful match

than, uh, his past couple visits, Rob Lainton.

Here's Lainton.

Kendall closing it down, and Lainton has to get rid of it,

manages to find Palmer.

The halftime whistle blows,

a scoreless first half,

as the teams head back to the changing room.

Just strap it up here. It feels fucking--

it feels funny.

Just relax.

You all right, Rob?

MCL.

He's done his MCL on that last kick.

I don't think he can continue.

Mental.

Go tell Chomp he's coming on, please.

It's so hard sometimes,

'cause you want to play, you do want to play.

I don't wish injury upon anybody.

I've had some really bad injuries in my past,

so Lainton has obviously had his fair share of 'em,

and he's been very unlucky.

Three times in three seasons at that ground

is just--it's horrendous.

Uh, mentally, it must be really tough for him.

Fucking Bromley.

Let's get on that fucking football.

Let's go, boys.

Back under way.

Wrexham making a change at the break at halftime,

and, uh, Rob Lainton coming off.

We talked about his bad luck

at Hayes Lane in the first half.

Well, that bad luck has carried on.

Oh, at Bromley-- three seasons in a row,

and Lainton has picked up an injury at Bromley.

It's incredible. It's awful.

And that's the final whistle.

Wrexham, victors today.

I really hope, for Rob, it's not too bad.

Um, he's had some bad luck at this ground.

Equally delighted for Mark to come on

and--and show a real calm assurance.

It's never easy coming off the bench in any position,

but certainly at keeper.

But I thought, you know, he just came on

and give us a nice air of calmness

and helped us get over the line.

Wrexham close it out.

With not counting drawing at Barnet,

Wrexham now have got some breathing space

at the top of the table.

Word is that Rob Lainton

will be out for the rest of the season.

Are you comfortable with Howard in goal again?

You know, he's done enough

over the course of, you know, the season as a whole.

He's kept, what, 13 clean sheets this year.

He stopped us from getting a pumpkin at Notts County

at the end of the season-- four or five decent saves.

What a class act Mark Howard is.

- He has been fantastic for us. - Awesome.

He's a fantastic goalkeeper.

We got a fantastic-- Shot stop is brilliant.

Who--who's had--who's had a very, very good career.

I think Mark Howard's...

37, 38, so he's obviously getting no younger,

but I think he's been a really good signing

and a really experienced head.

Mom, I'm just gonna put the telly on.

That's fine. That's okay.

After that, though,

we can go out in the garden, right?

Ugh. Yep.

Should've got a plate for your cookies.

- Bonkers. - Well, we've got table.

Who cares about plates?

Yeah, you just know that Mommy and Daddy'll

clean up after ya, didn't ya?

Yeah.

Uh, Mark Howard, goalkeeper.

I turned pro at 18.

I'm 36, nearly 37 now, so close to 18, 19 years.

It's hard--because of his age, you think

you're kind of coming to the end of your career.

It was weird.

It felt like Wrexham was just a really good fit.

Me and Lucie, uh, traveled around a lot,

like, with different football clubs and stuff,

so she's been unbelievably supportive

of my whole career, and we've been blessed

with two beautiful children, and I feel very fortunate.

Good save.

Mark, he's brilliant. He just, uh...

switches off from work

to family man when he gets home.

Nice, Bobs.

There's a lot that surrounds going on

at football and the expectancy level,

like I said, but just coming home

and just being a normal person, being Dad, is, like,

the thing that makes me happiest.

No days off. Extra training, Bobby.

Yes, 1-nil!

Mark, careful of his face.

What a save from Mark Howard.

I knew that was coming.

Get the catchphrase. - I knew it was coming.

Mark, have you been training her?

Yeah.

Welcome back to the Yours, Mine, Away! Podcast

with me, Mark Howard.

Uh, I can't believe

I'm actually saying this today.

Uh, I've got one of my idols in,

uh, one of the reasons that I play in goal

and still carrying on to this day.

Uh, he's played over 1,000 professional games.

Actually sounds crazy to say that.

Please welcome big David Seaman.

Pleasure, mate.

The podcast only started about

when I started my uni degree.

I'm studying, uh, journalism and media.

Uh, I'm at that stage in my career

where I am looking to what happens next

to make sure I've got everything in place

for life after football.

I've looked up to you for years.

I know, and it's weird, innit?

You know, like, as--you know, 'cause you were, like--

What were you, about 14?

14, 15. Yeah.

I was like, "Oh, my God.

I can't wait to get to that level,"

and I still never have.

Aerial power in there.

Paul Blake, but can they find a cutting edge?

Sarver! Off the line!

Somehow kept out by Seaman. That is a fantastic save.

But you've brought in that glove...

I know. Yeah. That made that save.

That's the best-ever save I've ever seen.

For the ball to change directions so many times--

Yeah, it was-- it was a different save.

It weren't, like, a hard shot

and then it did a little deflection.

These belong in a museum, mate.

They'd be worth a lot of money,

these, by the way. Yeah, true.

Dave Seaman had a huge influence on me,

'cause coming through at Arsenal,

he was always the number one until I went full-time,

but I was lucky enough to train with him a few times

and see what he was all about, and, yeah,

I think he's played over 75 times for England.

He was at the pinnacle of his game

for a long, long time.

How big are they?

Yeah, but we used to tuck 'em in, though, didn't we?

Yeah.

- Big baggy sleeves. - Yeah.

Do you have yours right now?

No, I, like, literally pull a cuff up, and that's it.

Yeah, but do you tuck it in your shirt?

- Oh, it's untucked, yeah. - Untucked? Yeah.

- Hide me belly. - Oh.

I think that, mentally, I'm still 100% there.

I want to get to 40. I've got that in my head--

that I know that I've got more to offer on the field.

I love what I do.

I look forward to being re-given that opportunity

to keep--keep my place, and I just want us to do well.

Um...

and--and I want us to get promoted.

I want to be part of that journey.

So, obviously, at the end of last season,

we suffered an injury to Rob Lainton,

which left us without kind of adequate goalkeeping cover.

Um, and, you know, I think some of the challenges we endured

in that final game of the season could be linked

to injuries, both to goalkeepers

and central defenders, so we're very sensitive

to ensuring we had good-quality injury cover this year.

So, when Rob went down again,

much as Mark had done a brilliant job,

we wanted to ensure that we had someone in there

to provide competition to him.

The breaking news is that Ben Foster has come

out of retirement just before his 40th birthday

and is gonna be playing

for National League leaders, Wrexham.

So they've confirmed they're gonna be signing him

until the end of the season.

Now, he returns here, having, uh, spent time there on loan

from his parent club, Stoke, uh, 18 years ago.

So there you have it-- Ben Foster coming out

of retirement and going to be playing,

uh, for Wrexham.

Ben Foster is an unusual character

to see turning out for a National League football club.

Brilliant save by Foster!

He's got 500 career appearances,

400 of them in the Premier League.

He played for England.

He's played for Manchester United.

He's played for Watford.

He has played almost his entire career

at the absolute top of the game.

American friends call me,

and they're like, "Oh, uh, who's Ben Foster?

Uh, we don't know much about soccer."

I said, "Well, it's very simple.

It's like signing Tom Brady."

Every once in a while, uh, over the course of a season

or a career, there are those people out there

that get that extra little bit of magic--

the Kobe Bryants of the world,

the Michael Jordans of the world,

um, the Tom Bradys of the world.

Ben Foster, he is that player.

Ben Foster, Premiership a goalkeeper his entire life,

you know, just--you know, he's brilliant.

Howard's done a good job for us.

He's not perfect, but who is?

Well, he--he knows that bringing Ben Foster in

means he probably doesn't play another game this season.

Goalkeeper's the hardest position on the field.

You can--you can make ten saves.

You make one mistake, you're the villain.

Yeah.

The thing, I think,

broke our hearts is that Mark Howard

has stepped up for this team over and over and over again

all season, with clean sheets galore

and putting his heart,

his body, his spirt on the line.

Mark has only lost two games,

but we bring in another keeper,

who, by all measure and all regard--

and Mark would admit this as well--

is the superior keeper.

And that's just the reality of--of the sport.

I felt for Mark.

It's been hard.

The team is right at the top

of the league and has done well for us.

Um, when you get a chance

to sign a keeper of Ben Foster's quality,

um, you know, you've got to take that,

and, uh, yeah, it's always tough on somebody else.

That's what's best for the team.

I think Mark knows that. We know that.

Obviously, Phil knows that,

'cause he's making that decision.

The manager phoned me on the Wednesday night

before Ben signed, and I was just about to walk

into my daughter's school play,

so that's-- manager sent me a text saying,

"Can you call me quickly?"

To be fair, I understood his decision.

At first, you think, "Oh, no, this don't look great for me,

but it looks good for the club."

I said, "If it makes us better,

we're all in it together."

And, uh, I went--

and, obviously, I had to hang up and go

and watch me daughter's school play.

Yeah, I think that's where I really--I used to train--

Ben Foster, retired Premier League player,

he said, "I jump in. Let's go.

I'll--I'll get you guys across the line."

Morning, all. Good morning.

You all right? You all right? Morning, morning, morning.

I really enjoyed retirement.

I started playing an awful lot of golf.

Really, really enjoying

doing all the things that I've never been able to do

for the last 20 years of my life.

And then Wrexham came knocking,

and, um, it--

Steve Parkin. Nice to meet you.

How are you? Good seeing you. Yeah, I'm good.

Okay. - Yeah, good. Looking good.

They were the team that basically gave me

my opportunity to-- to play first-team football,

and that's basically where my career just lifted off

from there, so, initially, I owe a lot to--to Wrexham

for what they've given me.

Come on, I'll take you through.

To bring Fozzy in was a case of having

an insurance policy.

I mean, you're bringing in a top goalkeeper as well.

I know he hadn't played for a period of time,

but he's got a pedigree.

I'll be honest, I was thinking it'd have to be

something pretty-- pretty spectacular or unique...

- Yeah. - To get you out of retirement,

because you've had--

- We spoke about Newcastle. - Yeah.

And that was an incredible offer.

Yeah, obviously, you've got to expect

that, being non-league,

it's not going to be anywhere near

kind of, like, Premier League money

or anything like that, and to be perfectly honest,

yeah, I don't really need much anyway.

So the negotiations, quite honestly,

took about five minutes, didn't they?

It was--it was the easiest conversation

in the world.

The Internet went nuts with,

you know, "Ryan and Rob splash out millions of dollars

to bring in Premier League goalie

for the end of the season,"

and what I will always love and I will always be indebted

to Ben Foster for is the fact that he immediately went

on his own podcast

and said, "The negotiations for this deal lasted five minutes.

I'm being paid peanuts."

It's literally peanuts. I don't want much. I don't.

"I'm coming back to just get this club

into the next league-- that's it."

I don't need any glitz or glamour.

I don't need all the nice shiny, sparkly bits.

I said, "The part of it for me is to try

"and help the team, get them over the line,

get promoted, and that's what it is."

It's seeing Wrexham back in the football league.

Stick me in a corner with the goalies or something.

We'll have a goalie corner. It'll be lovely.

Don't say--don't say that.

And he was the first one I saw when we got here as well.

He was getting out of the car. I was thinking, "Oh, no.

Don't like this. Don't like it."

If anybody deserved to be given another chance

to just finish out the season

and help Wrexham get over the line,

it would've been Chomp.

Gutted for him at that moment in time,

because like I say, he had such a big part

to play in this season.

Um, he had done fantastically well.

I think goalkeepers are much better

at dealing with this situation

than what outfield players are.

I think outfield players tend to--

I think egos get in the way a little bit,

whereas goalies, we understand that there's only one player

that can play in that position, only one goalie can be picked.

I explained to him how, um--

how I--how I came about signing,

basically how it all happened.

I said, "Listen, I'll be honest with you, Chomp.

"I'm--I've come here to play. You know? That's what it is.

"I've--I've told the manager that I'm playing,

and I'm not coming here to be a number two."

And he said--he's, again-- he's super honest, Chomp.

And he's like, "Yeah, I understand that, mate.

"You know, you were playing in the Premier League last year.

"You're not gonna want to come here and be a number two."

And I was, like, "Listen, I'm not--

"you know, I'm not being a big head or an eg--

"I-I feel like I can do this.

"You know, I want to do this.

"I want to do it properly as well.

"I'm not coming here just to, you know, gain

"a few Instagram followers or whatever.

I-I-I want to do it properly."

Um, and I think he could see that, to be fair.

That's a fucking test at the start.

Ben's someone that I've followed

a lot of my career, uh,

because he's a few years older than me,

someone that I've looked up to and what he's gone on

to achieve, from playing for England

and playing for Man United in the Champions League,

and he's had numerous promotions.

Ben's standards that he's put in that 18-year period

are incredible,

along with what he's done in the game off the field.

Hello, everybody. I'm Ben Foster, the Cycling GK.

♪ It's Friday, yeah ♪

♪ Saturday, Sunday ♪ Right.

He's got a YouTube channel.

I mean, lots of people have got YouTube channels around here,

but his is good.

- Yeah. - This hotel is bloody lovely.

Look at this.

People want to see that, don't they?

They want to see a bit more behind the scenes.

You know what I mean? - Yeah, I know. Exactly.

How cool is that?

I think that he's the first person

that ever make it popular to show interest in YouTube

and podcasts and the GoPro and everything like that.

He was the first person that did it.

Success!

Right there!

Just about to do the Yours, Mine, Away! Podcast.

Super Mark Howard wasted no time

in getting me, tapping me right up for the podcast.

Real quick.

Hello, everyone.

Today we've got an unbelievable guest,

my current teammate,

just nicked my place-- thanks a lot for that, mate.

I'm gonna get straight to that.

Uh, please welcome Ben Foster.

Aw, mate, don't.

I feel bad now.

I had to break the ice with that.

- I had to-- - It was good. Uh, no.

Thanks for having me, mate. I'm looking forward to this.

At first, everyone thought, "Oh, Mark'll be so pissed."

Yeah, yeah, yeah. -"Like, proper pissed."

And then, obviously, after, like,

you coming in, I was like, "If it get us through--

"like, through that door, mate, and we get promoted,

let's just enjoy that moment." Mate, that is so proper,

that is, honestly. That is so proper.

That is what goalkeeping is about, though, innit?

Like, obviously, you've been in teams before,

been out of teams, and that's what we are like.

Exactly, do you know what I mean?

That's not what my missus said, by the way,

when I told her.

She wouldn't want me saying that.

She went, "What?" No, I'm joking.

It's good, it's good.

How has the first few days at Wrexham been?

Really good, mate, buzzed off it,

absolutely buzzed off it.

You saw me in training on Thursday.

Don't lie, right? Don't lie.

Give your honest assessment

of what I looked like training on Thursday.

Uh, rusty.

Did I look like a goalie that had been retired

for ten months?

The first few volleys...

I thought you was gonna say "ten years," though, yeah.

The first few volleys,

I was like, "Oh, he's-- he's not what I remember him."

As soon as you got in the games,

you just turn on again.

Good to go again, yeah. - Yeah, it was mental.

I hope--I hope I'm feeling good tomorrow.

I was nervous. I was really, really nervous.

Like I say, I hadn't played for a while.

There's gonna be a lot of eyes on me.

You know, if I make a mistake in the first few minutes,

it's gonna be like, "What have we done?

This is a circus." Do you know what I mean?

"You're signing a 40-year-old goalie that's miles off it."

Hello, mate. Ben Foster.

18 years ago. It was 18.

I was there.

I'll see you, Ben. Cheers, mate. Thank you.

Aww, that's really lovely. Thank you very much.

Of course you can.

Let's turn our attention to today--

Wrexham against York City.

Two changes for Wrexham. Here goes one--

Ben Foster makes his return to the racecourse.

He'll be in goal for us.

Uh, it's a strange old world.

It's time for Foster Mania.

Foster just got to keep a clean sheet, hasn't he?

Well, he has to, doesn't he?

That's what he's here for.

Let's hope he's got nothing to do.

Yeah? - I am.

I really am, uh, just because he hasn't--

he must've had two good days training,

because if you've not really been--

been at it for nine months,

how--how easy is it to come back in?

How match-sharp are you? I don't know. I don't know.

Yeah, I'm gonna have to, mate.

I totally forgot you needed shin pads.

Oh, they're golden, mate.

- Rob McElhenney. - Yes!

You could tell by the smell Wasn't it the smell?

Yeah.

Work like dogs, all right?

Come on, boys. Hey, fucking no disappointments.

Best team in the league.

We're the best team in the league,

but you still got to outwork everyone.

♪ See the Reds who fight together ♪

♪ Speak their names with pride forever ♪

Here come the teams.

My watch just warned me that I'm in a loud environment.

Well, listen to this.

And it's about to get louder.

♪ Fearless in devotion ♪

♪ Rising to promotion ♪

Look at that beast. Look at that beast.

Yeah, that's a big man.

Oh, shit.

It meant a bit to me, do you know what I mean?

It was like I was coming home again almost.

But I couldn't help, um,

in the hours leading up to the game,

just thinking about it, thinking, you know,

"There's gonna be a lot of eyes.

There's gonna be a lot of focus."

Plays it backwards,

driven long to the halfway line.

John-Lewis driving in to Tozer,

brings it down well and feeds it inside

to the man outside.

He plays it.

Mendy can't make the interception.

Fallowfield drives it in.

Yes! There we go!

York City, they're--

as most teams in this league--

are very good at just putting balls into the box.

The diagonal for John-Lewis, who backs in well,

jumps loose, shot-- Good save by Foster!

There we go! - That's a long man.

That's why we spent all those peanuts.

That's a long man.

First couple of minutes,

they--they put balls in the box relentlessly.

For a goalie, it's nightmare.

And across to Flagstaff, the defender,

and Foster takes it comfortably under his bar.

Bit of backspin on it, but he took it well.

Foster, that's a great throw.

Finds Lee surging forward, got two strikers ahead of him.

As a goalie, that's, like--

oh, that's the dream start.

Come and take a cross, bowl it out.

It's like, yeah, here we go. We're cooking now.

Great confidence and experience from Ben Foster

at the back there, collecting the ball.

Great throw out on a good break.

Not only for me, but, I think,

for the lads in front of me, my back four, my defenders.

They see a goalie that's willing to come off his line...

a confident goalie, proactive goalie,

they think, "Yeah, this is nice.

This is--we've got--we got a good goalie behind us."

So I think it just settled everybody, settled everything.

- Nice. - Yeah!

Wrexham build it nicely.

Lee now, left edge, cuts inside,

Beats his man, squares it!

Cannon, helps it on first time, German shot!

Off the bar!

Has it gone in? I think it has!

It's given!

It's a Wrexham goal!

Whoo!

Yes! Whoo!

Come on!

It's an own goal by the keeper, Whitley!

Yes! Come on!

Aah!

Tozer's delivery comes in at pace.

Yes. Header comes on!

And it's there! Sam Dalby for Wrexham!

Tremendous stuff, that!

That was the first time I got to see us play

proper football, and I'm watching it, thinking,

"This is--this is so far above non-league, it's ridiculous."

Like, we are so much better than non-league.

Foster launches it long.

It's helped on by Dalby and Lee is one-on-one!

Can he wrap it up? Yes!

3-nil!

Elliot Lee gets a goal he deserves,

'cause he's been a constant threat.

And that is it, a 3-nil win.

We see Mullin celebrating.

We see Ben Foster enjoying the applause

of the Wrexham fans.

These lads are class, you know--look at this.

Oh, yeah. One step closer.

Boo-yah.

Get in there. Winning start, love that.

Ben Foster.

He was amazing then, though, wasn't he?

Amazing then, and he's amazing now.

He's the man.

That's what we need till the end of this year--

someone solid between the sticks.

Yeah, rock-solid Ben Foster. Come on!

Go, Wrexham!

Absolutely brilliant play,

brilliant play, but I felt that he was playing with love,

and it was really nice to see.

You've come for eight games. That's one down now.

- A perfect start. - Yeah.

- Another seven of them, and-- - Oh, we're cooking.

Yeah, we just need to keep it going.

We just need to keep it going.

It's as simple as that, and it's nice, though,

'cause, like I say, I started my career here,

and then I'm gonna finish my career here,

and that's the--it's, like, the full circle of a football.

Like, it's--yeah, it's very, very nice.

That could be May, or could it be...

Oh, don't--let's not get carried away.

Let's not get carried away.

Bloody hell. Let's get these, uh,

next seven games out of the way.

When he came in Thursday in training, he was excellent,

and he was, uh, very confident he'd be fine to play,

and he certainly showed it.

I felt really good, to be fair.

I was nervous, like, I was--I--

Like I say, I've played games, but I was still nervous,

genuinely, so nervous.

How are you? Ah, good to see you.

- Great win, great win. - I love this.

I love how much it means to you lot.

Oh, my God, please. - It's class, isn't it?

It's incredible. - 10,000 fans there today.

You know, there's no country in the world that would have

a non-league stadium have 10,000 fans in it.

It's bonkers.

Rob, uh, Ryan,

they're both just buzzing, like, absolutely buzzing.

Um, "We're so thankful. We're so happy."

Like, "Thank you for joining us.

"Thank you for helping us. It means so much to us.

"You know, we're gonna get over the line,

"and we--we're gonna have a wicked time in Vegas when

we've won the league and"--

And as soon as they said that, I went,

"We're going to Vegas? We're gonna go to Vegas?"

And they were like, "Yeah, of course we're going to Vegas."

And I was like, "Oh, you're the boys."

What a start to life at Wrexham FC, 3-nil.

The boys were on absolute fire, and as always,

you know I like to look out for you lot.

We've got a giveaway, and I've got a friend

to tell you what all you need to do.

If you want to win this, this Foster shirt...

Which smells exactly like victory

and some other stuff...

You know what to do, all right?

As always, give this video a like, subscribe,

and then get in the comments and say something nice.

It's as simple as that. All the best. See you soon.

All right, come on, then, big dog, let's go.

He was brilliant at the start of it.

Yeah, it was all right? I've enjoyed it, to be fair.

Like I say, everybody's been dead nice, and--

God's sake, this is a bad game, this.

That's unlucky, that, you know?

Don't ever get too high, yeah?

Don't ever get too low. It's as sim--

Try to stay somewhere in that middle bit.

If you can stay there, you won't go far wrong.

The lads are from levels higher, aren't they?

- Much higher, mate. - Yeah.

Much higher. I'd say a League One level.

That's what I always picture.

It's like, we've got a League One team

playing non-league, but it's still no guarantees in that.

No chance, mate.

The levels that we've performed at

and the results that we've got,

the standards that we've got as a team,

we deserve it, but whether we'll get it or not

is a different thing.

If I miss this, I'll be heartbroken,

by the way.

- Nearly rolled off, that did. - Nice, mate.

Nearly rolled off.

We've got to do it this year.

We've got to--we've got to-- we've--

we've got to have a bit of luck, surely, you know.

The clever thing about Parky is he's built a team,

more for probably mid-table League One.

Yeah, we get--we get League One crowds.

Wrexham!

I think if we go up-- I think--

I think we go straight up again.

Yeah.

I think we go straight up again.

Through it all...

flippin' Notts County haven't lost a step.

They're still with us.

Well, the battle with Notts County

has been absolutely remarkable, hasn't it?

Two unbelievable football sides.

They're a very, very good side, Notts County.

Play good football, yeah.

Very good. Yeah.

All 5 leagues, no one has ever earned 107 points.

I mean, Notts County can go up with 109 points...

Would you look at who's up next?

It's all been leading up to this.

With the season nearing the final hurdle,

it's the big one.

Surely it's done. Surely it's done.

Uh, absolutely.

Um, if we don't do it this time, we may as well pack up

and go home really, innit, you know?
