There's a reason they call it
the Cae Ras or the Racecourse.

In the early 1700s, the first
horse race was run on this ground.

60 pounds.

It was Lord Stamford's horse, Belinda,
that won it.

Then, for over 150 years, people packed in

to bet on the long shots,

to see who had the legs to finish.

The horses are long gone,

but the spirit of the final stretch
has never left.

And now here we are.

Moore breaking in the box,
left-hand side.

Tight angle. And he scores!

What a goal!

In the final stretch
of the season,

vying for a single playoff spot
against two threatening teams.

Four points out of the top six.
Four games to go.

Four massive games, four wins, hopefully.

But if not, hopefully Hull can slip up.

Hull City have spent multiple
years in the Premier League.

They know
what a promotion race looks like.

They've been sitting in the top six
for weeks in the Championship,

while Wrexham have struggled.

It's all about the next week.
We're ready to come back in to go again.

And you've got to keep finding
the solutions.

Derby have the easier run-in.

Everyone knows it.
And they're one point back.

Three teams.

One spot.

Four matches left.

And win or lose, we go again.

♪ Don't forget to sing when you win ♪

You know,
we've got Stoke City today.

Credit to them, they're a massive club,

they've got multimillion pound owners
and they're 16th, but we're seventh.

And who knows, if we win today,
we keep the dream alive for another week.

Yeah, so just as a reminder,
in the Championship,

three teams are promoted.

So, the top two are promoted
automatically.

You then have three, four, five and six,
who go into the playoffs.

Three plays six, four plays five.

The winners of those games play off
in the final at Wembley.

Wrexham are currently in seventh,
one place outside the playoffs,

and we have four games to get there.

The thing is,
we're gonna have our best ever finish

-in the history of the club.
-Yeah.

So, I think it's between us and Hull.

But if we win today,
and we win on Tuesday,

if we get to that last game of the season,

-I'd fancy us together.
-Yeah. Can you imagine?

If we can sneak into the playoffs,

then promotion to the Premier League is
a real possibility.

So, we're off to the races.

Standards, innit?
That's what it's all about.

Raising standards again,
getting back to where we've been.

Can we create an intensity and tempo
and physicality in the game?

You know, that's really important.
We're the fucking home team.

We've got to be physical.

We've got to fucking up the fucking ante
all over the fucking pitch.

Can we at the end of the game
have ticked the fucking boxes

to up our performance level?
Let's see what it takes.

Hello and welcome to
Wrexham for a huge game.

I'm reluctant to say this,
but I've got to.

Must win to have any hope really
of maintaining this exciting push

towards the-the playoffs.

We'll look at the Wrexham changes.

Danny Ward is back in goal
ahead of Arthur Okonkwo.

Oh.

Where's Okonkwo?

On the back of two defeats,

it was fairly obvious that we needed
to change something.

I was expecting changes today.

I can't say I was expecting
to see Danny Ward, but there we go.

Was Danny's experience

something to make
that real positive difference?

Phil Parkinson's made
that decision today.

He knows Wrexham really have
to win this game

to really stay in that hunt
of those playoffs.

We did it.

So, Dobson floats it in
towards the penalty spot.

Lawal, good header.
Rathbone brings it down.

Hits it, and it's corner to Wrexham.

This is a great opportunity
back at home to turn things around.

Thomason sweeps it.
The ball goes in. Wrexham take the lead.

Yeah! It's a goal!

Surely this one will be given
as a direct goal from a corner.

Thomason swept it in.

-Or Windass.
-Windass.

-Going with his finger.
-You're right.

I was actually really confused
that people were questioning it.

It was like, everyone's saying
that it got given to me,

but I was like, "But I scored it."

I made sure I got the goal
because I got a goal bonus.

The baby's got to get fed,
do you know what I mean?

Well, Wrexham take the lead
one way or another.

Wrexham!

All right, boys! Keep at it!

And immediately,
Bazunu knocks it long.

Doyle underneath it,
heads it over the top.

Windass will chase this.
Cresswell will have to act.

And Windass nicks it.
And has he scored? He has!

Windass scores again!

Cresswell just got too close
to his keeper.

-Underhit the back-pass.
-That one's definitely his.

No doubt about that.
Brilliant from Josh Windass.

Wrexham have got a two-nil
lead, and deservedly so.

Wrexham!

It's so important
that Wrexham keep that lead.

Don't give Stoke a sniff

because that goal difference could play
a part in three games' time.

Make room. Come on!

Here's Sorba Thomas
with a corner.

Big crowd in front of Ward.
It's swept into that area.

-Good punch by Ward.
-Oh, brilliant, Wardy.

And there is the final whistle.

It wasn't a classic
but a win's a win.

Still something to play for with
a few games left in the season.

Wrexham have done our part
of the bargain. We've won.

Hull drawing at home to Birmingham.

Derby won earlier on, of course,
to keep the pressure on us and Hull.

Two-point gap
between us and Hull.

It's all to play for, isn't it?
It's all to play for.

I'd hate to be a Wrexham fan 'cause
my little heart can't take it anymore.

Professional performance
today, boys.

I think you all know we needed that,
didn't we?

You know, we needed just kind of
a bit of resilience about us as a team

after the-the last couple of defeats, uh,
but we bounced back well.

For the boys!

What we don't want is
to hand the playoff position

to the teams above us.
We've got to make them earn it.

I-I wanted us to take this fight
to the last minute of the last game,

and, you know, we've done that today.

So, here we go again on Tuesday night
and let's see if we can build on this win.

Wrexham with a huge match

…against an Oxford side
who are fighting for their lives.

Just 'cause you're playing
a team who's a lot worse

than us in the… in the tables…
Any team in this league can win.

Cross comes in. Smith!

We have to win tonight
to have a chance, really.

-Just wide. Six yards out.
-Oh.

Three games left. Three shots
at pulling something remarkable off.

We're two points off the playoffs
behind Hull City,

who are currently
nil-nil against Leicester.

If we win tonight and Hull City lose,

we'll get back
into the final playoff spot.

James chipping over the top,
looking for Smith

who's done well to get there
ahead of Helik.

Squares it to Windass. Shot!

Wrexham take the lead!

Yes!

What a fucking goal.

Wrexham!

I think after the Birmingham display,
I'd felt that maybe our tank had run dry.

♪ Now, you better fight for survival ♪

Final whistle.

A huge, huge win for Wrexham.

We'll never stop fighting.
Hull will never stop fighting.

Everything's back on again.

Leicester and Hull, 2-2.

So, that puts Wrexham
in the top six on goal difference.

That was a massive win

'cause we'd been kept
in touching distance of the playoffs.

Josh Windass is a stone-cold killer.
Killer's gonna kill.

That's what I always text him.

Without that goal
that match would have been a draw.

Do you feel a certain pride
in those moments?

Oh, no, I never think like that, um…

No, I never-never ever think...
I don't go on the bus thinking,

"If I weren't there that day,
they would have drawn."

I-I can't score without ten other guys,

and they can't do stuff without me,
so, um, it's a collective.

Ana and Liv, as two center midfielders.
Carra and Faye as two wingers.

Sads and Rosie as the front two.

Lili coming in.

Man on.

We are excited, have been excited
over these last few months.

Here, Nat. Nat. Nat!

To be at the top of the table
is exactly where we wanted to be.

Can you play on there? Good.
Wide ball, still.

Can you connect the pass?

Jenny coming in has brought
another level of professionalism.

She's an incredible leader.

Can you escape from pressure?

I think the successes from the team,
what we've achieved,

I think a huge thing for that is
the environment that Jen creates.

Are they going to break
that line with a pass…

We're all incredibly together
and we all want to fight for each other.

We've broken all sorts of records…
…this year.

You know, there's all these things
that we're doing that are firsts.

And scores!

Lifting the first ever
silverware for the club.

But the important thing that matters is
that league title.

I think it's gonna be a great end
to the season

at the Racecourse against Cardiff.

The idea that in her first season,
Jenny Sugarman could win the league title,

it would just be
a phenomenal coaching job.

Who'd have thought
we'd have seen all these people

coming to watch the women's team?

Amazing.

If Wrexham wins today,
we will be the champions of Wales.

First team, any Wrexham team, to do that.

Cardiff, however, are a team
I have immense respect for,

and they will do everything they can
to poop this party.

Cardiff, you know,
we've been neck and neck all season.

We've been challenging each other
all season.

They've won the league
for multiple years for a reason.

They are very, very good.

You know,
Cardiff are reigning champions.

So, you know,
like it's our personal challenge

to… to overcome them and defeat them.

Over the last decade,

Cardiff has dominated
and we want to change that.

We want to be the best in Wales.

Okay, let's go. Come together.

I've seen a lot of "History awaits."

Well, I'm afraid it's bollocks,

because you have to go
and write your own history.

History does not await for anybody.
You get to write how this chapter ends.

"Team" on me. "Team" on three.
One, two, three…

Team!

As we get things underway…

Oh, Phoebes, right shoulder, Phoebes.

Cardiff repel
the first ball forwards.

Jenny Sugarman's red
and white army…

Slices it towards the edge
of Ol' Mariam, Billingham.

Cook goes down in the D.
Free kick in a shooting position.

Hey!

That's terrible.

I assume Mikayla Cook
is gonna take this.

Edge of the area. Drills it in.

Cardiff take an early lead, six minutes.
Just the start we didn't want.

First 45 minutes,
it wasn't working for whatever reason.

Hey!

It could have been a moment
of… …"Here we go again,

like, this is going
to be real, real hard graft."

Ooh, she made a mess
of a goal kick here. And Wrexham score!

Oh, that was a ludicrous mess
from Cardiff.

Wrexham scorer.

Number 18, Katie Barker!

♪ Open the gates
'Cause the savage about to come out ♪

KB gone and got us back into the game.
Doing what she does.

Barker! Wrexham take the lead.

Wrexham!

And we just… we just turned a switch.

Yeah!

Wrexham! Wrexham! Wrexham!

Barker turns and beats Bowen
from the floor and then takes on another.

Can she get the hat trick?
Ooh, is that a penalty?

Yeah, penalty. Barker, right-footed!
Hat trick.

Her second hat trick
and she goes absolutely crazy.

♪ We're goin' up, up, up
It's our moment ♪

♪ You know together we're glowing
Gonna be, gonna be golden ♪

♪ Oh, up, up, up ♪

Wrexham have put
on an absolute show.

Time, and there is the final whistle.

Lizzie Craven sprints off her line
to celebrate.

Wrexham, champions of Wales.

We are four C's.

Courageous, committed,
controlled, creative.

We have four new fucking C's.

"Cardiff City crumbled to the champions!"

Jenny, I'm not even sure
where to begin after that.

But Wrexham are the champions of Wales.
Just how good does that sound?

Oh, yeah… …it just brilliant.
It's just brilliant.

♪ We're goin' up, up, up
It's our moment ♪

The fact they won the league,
it's really been a crowning achievement,

I think, for the club and for the town.

The women's team is growing
at a pace that is unbelievable.

And, uh, we're just thrilled.
We're just utterly thrilled.

They are the story of the year.

They were not in that league
a few years ago.

They worked their way into the league.

They then worked their way
up the league in one year,

and then won the league,

and got themselves in a position
to be in the Champions League.

And to see what Jenny Sugarman has done

with that club has been, uh,
nothing short of miraculous.

Come on down. Come down.

We've managed to get through
all of the teddies and start hats now.

The club's given me 117 T-shirts
to make hats with.

There we are. They're amazing. Love them.

You have to rock it, like, yes.

The football stadium,
they were really happy,

and I think they want to help me…

To do more.

Uh, okay, let's try Gemma.

So, the hats, we took 20 hats last week
and seven have sold.

She's not gonna answer her phone.

Me and Ali have been…

…on scrunchies and tote bags.

She's probably like, "I'm… I'm…
They're filming me, they're shooting me.

I can't-can't answer my phone."

Call fails. Should I try again?

All right, Gem.

-Put it on loudspeaker, Gem.
-Who is it?

Is there someone there?

-Hello.
-Hi, Gemma.

It's Rob Mac from Wrexham A.F.C.

Oh, my God.

Oh, my God.

-How are you?
-I'm okay.

-Nervous now and excited.
-Oh, yeah?

Wow.

I've gone all red. Have I gone red?

I just want to let you know
that I just watched

your segment from the documentary,

and I thought it was really beautiful.

And I wanted to ask you
a few questions about the bears.

How many have you made so far?

So, we've made 20 of them,
of the little bears.

I-I was wondering
if you have the, uh, the ability

to maybe scale up a little bit
and make a few more.

-Do you think you can make a few more?
-Yes.

Great.

Can you make a thousand by next Christmas?

Is that possible?

It will be.

Okay. I like that.

There was not even a…
You didn't even blink.

There wasn't a breath. I love it.

I thought there was going to be a pause.
I thought there was gonna be a question.

Nope. Just, "Yes."

No, I'm too ADHD, aren't I?
I'm just sat here.

I feel the sweat's
actually coming off my head.

-I'm red.
-Goodness.

Okay, so ideally,

we can have them ready for next Christmas

and then we can give them out
to hospitals,

children's hospitals
all over the UK, uh, the US, Europe.

Anywhere
where-where people are interested.

Oh, my God.

You've worked for this.

I've actually got tears in my eyes now.

That is mental. That is mental.
Thank you so much.

We know it's going to be a race
to the finish,

so let us know if there's anything
that we can do to help.

We want to help any way we can.

I'll see you next time
I come out to Wrexham.

-Okay, bye, Gem.
-Thank you. Bye-bye.

Oh, Lind. Oh, Lindsay,
why did you do that?

-Was that Rob McElhenney?
-Yes!

Oh, my God!

Because of the background
that I've got,

it's been a bit of a struggle
to get people to trust me again.

I remember the drugs and the drink,

and I remember
what everyone said about me.

And I get it. I get it, like.

I've lost myself over the years,
and now I've found myself again.

And now I'm back with a vengeance,
and I ain't stopping, like.

Everyone that said,
"Oh, you can't do that,"

I've basically done it.

I hope people see my story and think,

"Oh, bloody hell, if she's done it,
we can do it."

Oh, my God.

Well, hello and welcome
to Wrexham at Coventry City.

We are Premier League,
say we are Premier league.

We are at Coventry City's
league title party.

And goodness me,
they are ready to have a party.

But while this is a huge match for them,
it's a massive, massive match for Wrexham.

Back in our hands.

So, here we go.
There's only one way to find out.

And away we go.

Wrexham! Wrexham!

And it is relevant that goal
difference could be crucial here.

We can actually end this weekend
in a worse position

than we went into it
because Hull lost by one.

If we lose by more than one, then Hull
have actually gained on us this weekend.

Mason-Clark taking on Kaboré.
Looks in dangerously…

One-nil. That was quality.

No point in arguing against that.

And Wrexham have to fight back.

Kaboré's gone. Dobson looks for him.

Kaboré on the right as we have
three players attacking the box.

Little step over, hits the goal line.

Drills it in the goalmouth.
Great ball across.

-Rathbone! Rathbone scores!
-Yes! Come on!

Great left-footed finish
and Dasilva just couldn't stop him.

At the 25th minute,
Ollie Rathbone does it again.

Wrexham!

It was an interesting
game really.

We can see they've got back into the game,
and Rathbone go a led brilliantly.

Huge moment.
Thomason, one-on-one with the keeper.

Then we've hit the post.

He's one-on-one.

Huge save by Rushworth.

Sam's had the 1v1.

Unlucky. Unlucky.

And we've had some really
good chances in the game.

Right-footed over the wall.

Oh, it's in. What a goal!

And conceded right towards
the end from a free kick.

Mason-Clark chops it.
And Wrexham have conceded that third.

Uh, an 0-2,
that's the business of the game.

And that is the final whistle.

Wrexham lose 3-1 to the champions,
Coventry,

and, well, we have ended up
frustratingly conceding two goals.

With these kinds of narrow margins,

we really are looking at a photo finish
here on Saturday.

It's never over till it's over.

Never leave Wrexham season early.

We go again next Saturday.

Hopefully, we'll get three points against
Middlesbrough and get into the playoffs.

-I think I'm gonna get the lamb.
-You okay?

-Is that nice?
-Do you guys understand

what's happening with this game,

what it means for them
and what that means for the whole club?

He explained it to me and it's…

I think it's gonna take a few times,
'cause I didn't know anything about soccer

-until, you know, I met Josh.
-Yeah.

It-It's amazing to-to know somebody
that's in a professional sport.

And then to see him succeed and…

I mean, I follow every article...

Yeah, he made a spreadsheet
of how the games are gonna go.

-His predictions.
-I'm a finance guy,

so I have a spreadsheet, you know?

-And what was your prediction?
-For this week? 2-1.

-Yeah. 2-1.
-2-1.

-Victory, of course.
-Yes.

Do you think the season's gone
as-as you expected?

Well, if we get promoted, yeah,
'cause when we signed,

me and Danielle spoke about it,
that's what I came here to do.

-Obviously, I hope we can do it.
-Yeah.

-Sure.
-Get in the playoffs.

It's every child's dream.

It's cringey, but it's every single
football player's dream

to play at that level.

And I've got a lot of friends
who've done it,

who I obviously believe I'm better than,
so it's always…

I'm always a little bit bitter, um…

Yeah, it's kinda getting a bit
more realistic now I've come here. Um…

It is a big game on Saturday though,
you can be honest.

Yeah, it is a big game. I'm not gonna lie.

But if you treat it too much
as a big game, it can weigh on you.

Yeah, obviously, when you first come
and everyone tells you about, like,

every year they get promoted,
you don't want to be the jinx.

I don't…
That's why I want to get promoted.

I don't want to be the player who's come,
and they haven't…

These boys have done incredible,
and they've created a winning culture.

Ultimately, they've created
a winning culture with the manager,

um, and you don't want to be one…
…part of the culture

that switches and you start losing.

-To a…
-Yeah.

-…very successful season so far.
-To a win.

-Cheers.
-Thank you.

-Yay! Cheers.
-Cheers.

-Yay!
-To a win.

So, going into the last game,
we're sixth in the table.

If we beat Middlesbrough, then Derby
can no longer get into the playoffs.

If we beat Middlesbrough,
and Hull beat Norwich,

then Hull have to beat Norwich
by at least one more goal

than we beat Middlesbrough.

At which stage, if they achieve that,
they've probably earned it.

But if we lose or draw
against Middlesbrough,

then Hull and Derby also
have to lose or draw

in order for us to stay in 6th place.

So, the fundamental principle is a Wrexham
win and everything should be okay,

and the club get to the playoffs.

Oh. I always knew it would
come down to the very last game.

-Yeah, 45 games.
-I know.

-And it comes down to the last game.
-To the last one.

Extra squeaky bum time.

The mood
going into the Middlesbrough game

was a combination of
belief and nervousness

that it's actually slightly
out of our control.

We can just do what we can do,
and what will be will be.

Such a good final day
of the season.

I mean, you couldn't have written this.

It's a three-horse race.

We're in… at the moment
we're in the pole position.

It's gonna be one hell of a day.

If you're not playing today,
come and sit next to me.

I will. I may as well.

Bring your heart-rate monitor.

I will. See you in a bit.

It's been bonkers, yeah.

I'd rather be mid-table and having
a nice easy last game of the season

but this is Wrexham, isn't it?

We don't do things normal.

We're going to win 2-1.

-You said 5-nil before.
-And then...

No, I didn't! All right.

Absolutely massive. Biggest game
of the season by a country mile.

Unless everything goes well,

and then the next game's the biggest
and then the game after that.

There's no telling what could happen.

I'm just excited

-that we've got something to play for.
-Yeah.

I think what's gonna give me the biggest
buzz is when the lads behind me

are checking their phones
and, like, you know,

if Hull have scored, if Derby have scored.

I actually think this might be
one of the best days we've had here,

regardless of the result.

I'm stressed beyond belief.

I didn't sleep last night.

Let's hope we win.

I've also, just for good luck,
Claire, have got it on.

Oh, nice.

It's probably the biggest game
in the history of Wrexham F.C.

Let's see what happens.

Wrexham!

I got up at 4:00 a.m.

It was their 12:30 game in the UK.

And I woke up my son, Axel,
as per our tradition,

and we went downstairs.

-4:00 a.m.
-As for Middlesbrough…

We turn on the game 'cause we know
anything can happen at any time,

and if you mathematically have a chance,
then you've got a chance.

-Come on, boys.
-We'll just have a quick chat.

-Come on.
-Yeah, okay, boys.

Key points for our performance today.

I think it's important, boys,
that we block out the crowd

in terms of what's going on elsewhere,

and we just focus on
what we've got to do today.

Uh, we had full belief going into
that game that we'd beat Middlesbrough.

There was nobody in the whole club

that didn't believe we were
getting in that top six.

I'll base these key points,
a bit of what Middlesbrough are all about,

but from the best performances
of the season at home.

If we were to do it…
it-it'd be incredible.

Um, I'm sure the whole town

and the whole place
would-would erupt.

But to make it with Wrexham,
with a Welsh team,

would just be the icing on the cake.

It would be a special,
special achievement.

Most important thing is,
let's go and enjoy the day.

Enjoy the day, but enjoy the day

by putting a really
strong performance in together.

That's what today is all about.
I want us to enjoy the challenge of that.

We've worked incredibly hard to get here.
Let's go and fucking relish it, boys.

-Come on, boys. Let's go and enjoy it.
-Come on, boys!

Welcome to Wrexham
against Middlesbrough,

the highest of high-stakes matches.

This football club has never been close
to getting in the top division,

but today,
that dream could take a huge step closer.

Can Wrexham do it?

The belief coming back,
we've got players coming back from injury.

You're looking at it thinking,

"We could potentially do this."
It's gonna be exciting.

This feels different
at this stage of the season,

'cause you-you know
what the ramifications are.

You know we can do it, and we will do it.

And when people believe
in their mission,

and these people believe in their mission,

you've got to go for it.
You've got to go for it.

So, I think that's what we're gonna do.

And so, just go out there
and shock the world.

Wrexham! Wrexham! Wrexham!

-Come on, Dad.
-Yeah.

Such a big match.

The spotlight's on the team,

the pressure has never been higher.

That's Wrexham.
That's how it's always been.

It just always seems to
come down to the wire.

I wanna win this game.

Hold on to your wigs and keys.

It's time for the biggest
league game in our history.

Away we go.

Come on!

Come on, Wrexham!

Red Army! Red Army!

And now here come
Middlesbrough on the fast break.

It's Callum Brittain,
he feeds it into the bottle.

It's in. It's there! It's in!

Oh! What a disastrous start for Wrexham!

No!

Oh, my God, no.

Conway,
the Scotland international, lunging in.

And Wrexham are gonna have to do this

-the hard way.
-No.

Come on.

And to make matters
worse for Wrexham,

I can see that Derby County
just scored versus Sheffield United.

That's gonna make it
even harder for Wrexham

to get back into the playoff positions.

Wow, this is a disastrous start
to the day for Wrexham.

But like you say, plenty of time.

This place needs to just make sure
it stays loud,

gets behind this Wrexham team.

Come on, Wrexham!

The Wrexham fans already
making noise to encourage them.

Fucking brilliant!

♪ I was born long ago
I am the chosen, I'm the one ♪

Rathbone edge of the D, hits it!

Good effort, but too straight.

♪ You got to breathe and have some fun ♪

♪ Though I'm not paid
I play this game ♪

Wrexham press on. Smith…
He's fouled on the edge of the area.

He fouled him near to the edge!

He has given it. The ref thought about it.

Have we scored a direct
free kick this season?

♪ Are you gonna go my way? ♪

I don't think we have, have we?

And Windass…

Rips it over the wall!

-Yeah!
-Yes!

-Yes!
-Yes.

Top left corner, wall side,
no chance for Brynn.

That's how you fucking do it!

Well, wow, just wow.

The in-form man for Wrexham
has just put it in the postage stamp

from 30 yards.

Wrexham!

And just listen to that Racecourse roar!

Well, it's still not over.

That only lifts Wrexham
into seventh place behind Derby County.

We need another goal to get
back into that playoff spot.

He's gonna get another one.

He's gonna get another one.

Inswinger,
swept under the bar dangerously.

And bounces around loose.

And Ward's relieved to grab hold of that.
That was wild.

-Go with him!
-Good ball forward

as Targett looks to feed it in.

Kaboré crosses the halfway line now.

Can Morris square up
with him, though?

He does. Driving forward,
shrugs off Morris, Targett.

-And it's 2-1.
-Yes!

Kaboré magic…

…and Smith with the finish!

-Yeah!
-Yeah!

And what a brilliant piece
of wing play that was by Issa Kaboré.

He took on two, beat them both
and somehow screamed it across.

And that puts Wrexham back
in the playoff spot.

Yes.

All I had to do was take a piss.

Wrexham!

And it's one
all between Hull and Norwich.

Still 1-nil to Derby.

So if everything stays as it is,
Wrexham are in the playoffs.

Oh, man. This is fun.

And even that one man
in the box. It's Sam Smith.

-It seems like there's a possibility.
-Go with the touch!

Here now come Middlesbrough
down the other end.

-It's pulled back by Targett.
-Go to the ball!

Early cross is a great one.
My God, 2-2. A great finish by Strelec.

Brilliant cross.
And Wrexham will be disappointed

that we didn't pick up in the middle.
And Strelec, six yards out.

This is so disappointing.

Wrexham were only back in those
playoff positions for just two minutes.

But we still have the entire
second half to try and get back there.

We're a fair way
into the second half now

and this game doesn't
look to be going anywhere.

Wow, wow.

Don't be greedy.

But elsewhere,
it's really kicking off.

I've got good news and bad news.

Sheffield United have
taken the lead against Derby.

So as things stand,
it looks like Derby are out of contention.

We don't have to worry about them.

But Hull have taken the lead,

and so they leapfrog us in the table.

We need to score or our season ends today.

Quickly! Quickly!

It's time now
to take risks, isn't it?

Thomason inside to Broadhead.

He turns on the left flank.
Back to Windass, corner of the box.

Hooks it in. Nice shape.

And Smith hits it
into the ground. Unlucky.

That's the one Sam made last year.

And now Broadhead.
He's running at the last defender.

He gets into the box. Tight angle.

Pull it back to Windass. He does.
Windass, right-footed…

Fuck, fuck, fuck, fuck.

That was one hell of a chance.

How did we not put that in?

How've they not
scored more goals today?

I'm not quite sure.

-Come on, Wrexham!
-Just one goal, just one goal.

A big tackle by Doyle.

Gets to the edge of the area.
Countdown to shoot. He finds Moore.

Moore fakes to shoot
and then over hits the pass,

but Thomason keeps it alive.

Big chance. And Smith
couldn't control it properly. Huge block.

Fucking Christ.

Five added minutes
for Wrexham to keep this going.

Five minutes is plenty of time.

Can Wrexham do the improbable?

-Come on!
-Thomason signals.

Sweeps it to the far post.

It's too much hit. Doyle's kept it alive.
Moore heads it on. Held by Brynn.

Oh. For fuck's sake.

We have a minute left.

Oh. Kitchen sink. Danny Ward's up there.

It's Thomason. Puts it in flat.

-Headed partly clear.
-Fucking hell!

Wrexham looking for a hero.

-Go, go, go!
-This has got to be it.

Twenty-five seconds left.

Windass stands it over the top.
Fry heads it clear.

Smith trying to put it behind.

Wrexham have got four-on-four here now.
Broadhead. Early to win that.

And Moore. Left side of the box.

Driving forward.

-Oh, he's lashed it well over.
-Fucking hell!

We have had the five minutes
and that is full time.

We have drawn here.

An outstanding effort by Wrexham.

But now, we are waiting for
the other results.

The Derby game.
Well… …it's over for them.

But Hull are still leading 2-1.

But what a season we have had.

What a performance by this Wrexham team.

And the entire stadium is staying behind

to acknowledge them
regardless of the outcome.

Great season.

They gave it
one hell of a good go.

Wrexham!

But this team has done us proud.

These players have done us proud.

This club has done us proud.
And we will go again next season,

and we will be stronger than this season.
There's no doubt about that.

And Hull have won.

Our season is over,
but the journey most definitely is not.

This is a team to be proud of
and a club that continues to go somewhere.

I'm so proud of the boys.

I'm so proud of
the entire staff at Wrexham.

Disappointed? A little bit.

-Disheartened? Not at all.
-No.

Disappointed at the moment, but…

You can't be mad
at the way they played.

Yeah. But the chances we had, you know
what I mean, it was so close, wasn't it?

Frustrating.

But a few days, and then I think
we'll all look back and go,

"It's been a success this season."

It's just, obviously,
not ended the way we want it to.

Disappointing.

Um, but we may feel like
we fell short now,

but it'll only leave us in good stead
in the, you know, next season.

Um…

Yeah.

So close, but it is what it is.

So close but,
obviously not meant to be.

Um… But, you know, we go again.

We gave it a lot, didn't we?

I can't lie. I didn't want it to end,
but of course now it has.

Yeah, it was just gutting.
It was just gutting.

I watched that chance ten times.

What are you thinking
when you watch it?

Just idiot.

Idiot. Just score.

I find satisfaction hard to come by.

What do you think
the future holds for Wrexham?

-Premier League.
-Wrexham! Wrexham! Wrexham!

Wrexham! Wrexham! Wrexham! Wrexham!

Wrexham will finish 7th

and, agonizingly, will miss out on
the playoffs by two points.

Feels a lot like our first year.

I just had this eerie feeling
like I had just been there.

Okay, here we go.

It was the same exact setup
for our first season.

We were right on the cusp of
getting into the playoffs, and we lost.

Their promotion dream is over.

You know,
I looked a little bit older.

The house looks exactly the same.

The animals look the same.

A little older, a little heavier.

A little older, a little heavier.

Like somebody else.

But my son, first season,
he was a little boy, 3.5 feet tall.

Maybe we make it
to the playoffs next year?

Yeah, we gotta figure out a way
to get out of the National League,

that's for sure.

Why?
The National League is our style.

You said the National League
was our style.

-I did?
-Yeah.

I still don't remember saying that.

No.

There's a continuity to this
whole experience

of the passing on of generations,

and we're just at the start of ours.

My father is a huge fan of the club,
and it's bonded us together

because it gives us something to
talk about and something to emote around.

But mostly, it's because
it's a generational experience,

and I'm watching time pass

through my sons eyes
and my sons eyes are watching Wrexham.

And it's been like that for 160 years.

Okay. What's your prediction for
where we finish next year in the table?

First place.

-First place?
-Mm-hmm.

I like your confidence.

This is not a one-year plan.

It's not a one-year plan.

It's fascinating to me,

and it just shows how quickly
we're just cycling on

to the next season,
which is both good and bad.

It's bad insofar as
our lives are just flying by.

But it gives us another opportunity
very soon to come back

and to continue the march forward,
which is what we're doing.

We go again.

I'll see you next year, Dad.

See you next year.

So much changes.

But the club always remains.

♪ This time tomorrow ♪

♪ Where will we be? ♪

We are in motion.

Nothing has ended.

It's not going to end.

It will go on and on and on.

And the only thing that we
can hope for are these moments

of great triumph

and, unfortunately, great tragedy.

Fucking hell!

Because that's
the entire experience.

There's a common denominator
for people who win.

It is that they go out there and take
some swings to do something meaningful.

And, yes, sometimes, they fail.

The whole thing
doesn't work without failure.

Fuck!

It sucks. It hurts.

So…

What are you gonna do? Get up.

News has stunned the world
of football this evening.

You would have heard about Spygate.

Spygate scandal.

Southampton have been expelled

from Saturday's
Championship playoff final.

Southampton admitted
to the unauthorized filming

of other clubs' training.

The spy was stood behind this tree.

He was spotted, packed up his equipment

and hotfooted to the nearby golf club

where he changed his appearance.

He then fled and made his escape
right up through the private land.

When we first heard that this had gone on,
I'm sat at home.

And you look at it,
and you go, "What the fuck?"

We all know the prize of getting
promoted to the Premier League.

Southampton have obviously decided
to try and gain whatever advantage

they could that wouldn't
normally be available,

unless they simply cheated.

If Southampton were thrown out
of the playoffs, we finish 7th.

So logic would say
we'd be the next team in.

There will be a new
participant in the EFL championship.

The effect of today's order
is that Middlesbrough

are reinstated into the 2026 playoffs.

They'd lost, of course, over two legs

to Southampton in the semi-final.
They're back in.

It will be Hull City
versus Middlesbrough on Saturday.

The EFL were hoping
that Middlesbrough would win

-and that will be problem solved.
-Definitely.

Which it never happened,
and they had a big problem to deal with.

We're gonna, you know,
just have to accept it.

I think it will be
a straightforward 3-1.

-Middlesbrough win.
-Two in the box.

Three now. Hirakawa's found a cross.

And the goalkeeper's lost it.

And Ollie McBurnie has sent
Hull City into the Premier League.

Right at the end.

And the tears are beginning
to flow in the Middlesbrough end.

Hull City are first side
in the Championship

since Blackpool 16 years ago
to be promoted having finished 6th.

…having finished 6th.
