00:00:02,549 --> 00:00:06,019
ROB: Building 69 is where
we used to edit "Sunny,"
2
00:00:06,055 --> 00:00:07,785
and then you took that over.
- We made it nice.
3
00:00:07,826 --> 00:00:09,296
- You made it nice
in there, yeah.
4
00:00:09,328 --> 00:00:10,498
- They gave us a budget.
5
00:00:10,532 --> 00:00:12,332
They gave us some of that sweet
Deadpool money.
6
00:00:12,368 --> 00:00:13,598
- Yeah, we didn't
get any of that.
7
00:00:13,638 --> 00:00:16,478
This is my favorite building
on the whole lot.
8
00:00:16,510 --> 00:00:19,280
RYAN: Oh. Oh, Nakatomi Plaza.
ROB: Nakatomi Plaza.
9
00:00:19,315 --> 00:00:20,445
- Any Die Hard fan
out there will know
10
00:00:20,484 --> 00:00:21,594
exactly what happened.
11
00:00:21,620 --> 00:00:23,460
- Yippee-ki-yay, mother...
12
00:00:23,491 --> 00:00:25,161
[explosion]
13
00:00:28,668 --> 00:00:31,138
- Yeah, this is
the first soundstage
14
00:00:31,172 --> 00:00:32,612
I ever got to work on.
15
00:00:32,642 --> 00:00:34,082
- This is where you did--
16
00:00:34,111 --> 00:00:35,581
- Two Guys, a Girl
and a Pizza Place.
17
00:00:35,615 --> 00:00:37,645
There's a plaque over here.
- Yeah, let's find the plaque.
18
00:00:37,686 --> 00:00:39,086
- There we go.
19
00:00:39,121 --> 00:00:41,091
- Oh, they got it here.
20
00:00:41,125 --> 00:00:42,255
Here's the beauty of this.
21
00:00:42,294 --> 00:00:44,234
So you look at this,
and you think,
22
00:00:44,265 --> 00:00:45,765
"Wow, that's,
like, a beautiful piece
23
00:00:45,802 --> 00:00:47,372
"of, like, steel or bronze.
24
00:00:47,404 --> 00:00:48,644
It's patina-ing."
25
00:00:48,674 --> 00:00:50,184
It's plastic.
26
00:00:50,210 --> 00:00:51,610
RYAN:
Oh, no! It's fucking plastic.
27
00:00:51,647 --> 00:00:53,347
ROB:
Yeah. Look, it bends.
28
00:00:53,383 --> 00:00:54,823
- Let's steal it.
29
00:00:54,853 --> 00:00:56,793
- I mean, you could rip this
thing right out of the wall.
30
00:00:56,824 --> 00:00:59,564
RYAN: Look at this fake--
ROB: Yeah. [laughs]
31
00:00:59,596 --> 00:01:00,796
You fucking broke it.
32
00:01:00,832 --> 00:01:04,172
- Fucking...
- [laughing] Ah...
33
00:01:04,205 --> 00:01:06,135
PERSON: At least
you have a plaque.
34
00:01:06,175 --> 00:01:09,775
[laughter]
- This is Hollywood to a tee--
35
00:01:09,816 --> 00:01:12,556
beautiful on the outside...
RYAN: Jesus!
36
00:01:12,589 --> 00:01:14,789
ROB: And just shit.
RYAN: Oh, my God!
37
00:01:14,826 --> 00:01:16,396
ROB: You just scratch
at the surface--
38
00:01:16,429 --> 00:01:18,769
- I mean, how much does it cost
to put a real--
39
00:01:18,801 --> 00:01:20,641
I never felt it before.
40
00:01:20,672 --> 00:01:22,412
You're right. It's not
even plastic--it's rubber.
41
00:01:22,441 --> 00:01:24,081
ROB: Yeah, it's rubber.
42
00:01:26,517 --> 00:01:28,587
RYAN: No, we need a legacy
to put that back on.
43
00:01:28,621 --> 00:01:30,831
ROB: You just scratch at the
surface, and underneath it is--
44
00:01:30,858 --> 00:01:32,528
RYAN:
I feel so much less special.
45
00:01:32,562 --> 00:01:34,772
Thank you for that ice-cold
bucket of humility.
46
00:01:34,800 --> 00:01:36,800
ROB: Yeah.
47
00:01:36,837 --> 00:01:40,177
BUDDY HOLLY: [singing]
Every day it's a-getting closer
48
00:01:40,210 --> 00:01:43,650
Going faster
than a roller coaster
49
00:01:43,684 --> 00:01:48,634
Love like yours
will surely come my way
50
00:01:48,661 --> 00:01:50,801
A-hey, a-hey, hey
51
00:01:50,832 --> 00:01:54,442
Every day
it's a-getting faster
52
00:01:54,472 --> 00:01:58,252
Everyone said,
"Go ahead and ask her"
53
00:01:58,279 --> 00:02:02,689
Love like yours
will surely come my way
54
00:02:02,722 --> 00:02:05,232
A-hey, a-hey, hey
55
00:02:05,260 --> 00:02:11,470
Love like yours
will surely come my way
56
00:02:22,495 --> 00:02:25,295
- [grunts]
57
00:02:36,757 --> 00:02:38,357
[object clatters]
58
00:02:49,348 --> 00:02:51,318
It's magnolia.
59
00:03:17,539 --> 00:03:21,509
[steady music]
60
00:03:21,547 --> 00:03:22,977
PERSON ON RADIO:
Well, Rob and Ryan
61
00:03:23,016 --> 00:03:24,746
have an awful lot
on their plate.
62
00:03:24,786 --> 00:03:26,516
It's been a summer
of upheaval,
63
00:03:26,557 --> 00:03:28,527
with half
the playing staff released.
64
00:03:28,561 --> 00:03:31,371
The big question on
Wrexham fans' minds, though,
65
00:03:31,399 --> 00:03:33,539
is whether
the owners' star quality
66
00:03:33,571 --> 00:03:37,411
can attract a big name
to replace Dean Keates.
67
00:03:37,444 --> 00:03:39,884
PERSON: It's a shock Dean
leaving, wasn't it? Or was it?
68
00:03:39,916 --> 00:03:41,946
- Well, no, I don't think
it was a shock.
69
00:03:41,987 --> 00:03:43,457
I think it was...
70
00:03:50,404 --> 00:03:53,744
- But who are they gonna
get in instead?
71
00:03:53,778 --> 00:03:55,478
- [scoffs] Well...
72
00:03:57,418 --> 00:03:58,388
PERSON: Yeah.
73
00:04:13,316 --> 00:04:14,386
[computer beeps]
74
00:04:14,418 --> 00:04:17,788
- So it's time to rebuild.
75
00:04:17,826 --> 00:04:20,696
- Hey.
- Yay.
76
00:04:20,731 --> 00:04:23,841
- We desperately need that CEO
in place to be able to deal
77
00:04:23,871 --> 00:04:25,371
with the day-to-day,
you know, businesses
78
00:04:25,407 --> 00:04:27,377
of running the football club.
79
00:04:27,411 --> 00:04:28,781
You know,
they're gonna have to come
80
00:04:28,814 --> 00:04:30,424
with a special set of skills,
81
00:04:30,450 --> 00:04:32,590
and they need to rebuild a club
in the National League,
82
00:04:32,622 --> 00:04:35,332
which isn't a skill set
that a lot of people have got.
83
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:37,570
- Can we find
a very capable CEO
84
00:04:37,599 --> 00:04:41,009
who can also maybe be
a striker?
85
00:04:41,038 --> 00:04:43,578
- That would be
a good cost-saving exercise
86
00:04:43,611 --> 00:04:44,881
if we could, you know--
87
00:04:44,913 --> 00:04:47,423
- Ryan, if you can find
a 20-goal-a-season CEO,
88
00:04:47,451 --> 00:04:48,721
that's the ideal.
89
00:04:48,754 --> 00:04:50,894
- I feel like we fixed
Wrexham, guys.
90
00:04:50,925 --> 00:04:53,395
So I'm gonna just jump off,
and I'll see you guys later.
91
00:04:53,429 --> 00:04:55,839
- Okay. Good.
- Mic drop. It was great.
92
00:04:55,868 --> 00:04:57,808
- That was easy.
93
00:04:57,839 --> 00:04:59,739
ROB: So we thought it was
gonna be a difficult search,
94
00:04:59,776 --> 00:05:02,746
but it actually
turned out quite easy.
95
00:05:02,782 --> 00:05:05,022
Fleur Robinson
was a no-brainer.
96
00:05:05,053 --> 00:05:06,623
- I'm Fleur Robinson,
97
00:05:06,657 --> 00:05:08,827
Commercial Director
of Burton Albion Football Club.
98
00:05:08,861 --> 00:05:11,471
I've worked in football
for over 26 years
99
00:05:11,500 --> 00:05:13,570
and, during that time,
had many roles,
100
00:05:13,604 --> 00:05:16,444
but I haven't played in goal
or mown the pitch.
101
00:05:16,475 --> 00:05:19,475
RYAN: Fleur Robinson, CEO,
she comes from Burton.
102
00:05:19,516 --> 00:05:21,786
She comes
from a big football family.
103
00:05:21,820 --> 00:05:25,430
She's probably the smartest
football CEO in the business.
104
00:05:25,460 --> 00:05:27,830
She's so smart that she asked
not to be featured too much
105
00:05:27,866 --> 00:05:29,366
in the documentary.
106
00:05:29,401 --> 00:05:32,471
So I didn't know
that that was an option.
107
00:05:34,546 --> 00:05:36,046
- [laughs]
108
00:05:36,082 --> 00:05:37,922
- Well...
HARVEY: Hello.
109
00:05:37,952 --> 00:05:39,662
- Hi.
110
00:05:39,689 --> 00:05:42,359
- Here we are again--
really loving these Zooms.
111
00:05:42,394 --> 00:05:44,534
- What we needed
was a manager to come in
112
00:05:44,566 --> 00:05:47,066
who had a track record
of being successful
113
00:05:47,104 --> 00:05:49,414
because that in its own right
114
00:05:49,441 --> 00:05:52,521
must give you
a better chance of success.
115
00:05:52,549 --> 00:05:55,019
- In the process of trying
to find us a new manager
116
00:05:55,053 --> 00:05:57,023
at the moment, we received...
117
00:05:57,057 --> 00:05:58,927
Did we say
it was 100 applications?
118
00:05:58,961 --> 00:06:00,461
- Yeah, I think,
last time I counted--
119
00:06:00,498 --> 00:06:01,928
and to be really honest,
I've stopped counting--
120
00:06:01,967 --> 00:06:04,037
It was at 100.
- Yeah.
121
00:06:04,071 --> 00:06:05,681
I support the boldest choice.
122
00:06:05,708 --> 00:06:08,948
I just support whatever
is going to march this team
123
00:06:08,981 --> 00:06:11,021
proverbially down the field.
124
00:06:11,052 --> 00:06:13,962
- Alongside all the
applications we have--
125
00:06:13,991 --> 00:06:16,961
and there were some
good applicants in there--
126
00:06:16,997 --> 00:06:20,707
but we recognized that if we
could persuade Phil Parkinson
127
00:06:20,738 --> 00:06:23,508
to come
to Wrexham Football Club,
128
00:06:23,544 --> 00:06:27,424
that would give us
the best chance of success.
129
00:06:27,451 --> 00:06:29,721
ANNOUNCER:
Phil Parkinson can celebrate.
130
00:06:29,756 --> 00:06:32,796
The lowest-ranked former
Premier League club
131
00:06:32,829 --> 00:06:34,499
begin to make their way
132
00:06:34,532 --> 00:06:36,842
back up
the football league pyramid.
133
00:06:36,870 --> 00:06:39,410
HARVEY: Phil Parkinson,
with championship experience--
134
00:06:39,441 --> 00:06:42,111
he's improved
teams year on year
135
00:06:42,147 --> 00:06:44,917
and knows how to win games.
136
00:06:44,953 --> 00:06:48,093
ANNOUNCER: Colchester United
have been promoted
137
00:06:48,126 --> 00:06:49,826
to the Championship
138
00:06:49,863 --> 00:06:53,743
for the first time
in the club's history.
139
00:06:53,771 --> 00:06:56,711
- He has a track record
that is better
140
00:06:56,743 --> 00:06:59,753
than that
of a National League manager.
141
00:06:59,783 --> 00:07:02,763
[cheers and applause]
142
00:07:02,789 --> 00:07:04,559
HUMPHREY: Most managers
work their entire life
143
00:07:04,593 --> 00:07:06,733
hoping to achieve
just one promotion,
144
00:07:06,763 --> 00:07:09,843
and Parkinson has done it
three times.
145
00:07:09,869 --> 00:07:12,739
So, obviously, all of us were
very keen on Phil Parkinson.
146
00:07:12,775 --> 00:07:14,745
We made what we felt was
a very appropriate approach,
147
00:07:14,779 --> 00:07:17,919
and he said no.
148
00:07:19,923 --> 00:07:21,963
We're looking for someone
that has gravitas
149
00:07:21,994 --> 00:07:25,644
and someone who's gonna be
able to, like, inspire, lead,
150
00:07:25,668 --> 00:07:30,608
direct in all the ways that you
want from a manager/head coach.
151
00:07:30,645 --> 00:07:32,915
You know, I talked
about Phil Parkinson.
152
00:07:32,949 --> 00:07:34,749
you know, he's won
back-to-back promotions.
153
00:07:34,786 --> 00:07:36,186
He's done it in multiple clubs.
154
00:07:36,222 --> 00:07:38,632
Like, he is
a top, top coach.
155
00:07:38,661 --> 00:07:41,031
And we basically said,
"What do you want?
156
00:07:41,065 --> 00:07:42,735
We'll give it to you."
157
00:07:42,769 --> 00:07:44,769
And he's just like,
"Well, is it a real thing?
158
00:07:44,806 --> 00:07:46,636
"Is this gonna be 18 months,
they're gonna get bored?
159
00:07:46,677 --> 00:07:47,777
"Like, what
if they don't get promoted
160
00:07:47,812 --> 00:07:49,052
"at the end of the season,
161
00:07:49,081 --> 00:07:50,251
are they gonna
just, like, disappear?"
162
00:07:50,283 --> 00:07:52,523
You know, he's--
- Taken a job yet?
163
00:07:52,555 --> 00:07:53,915
- No, not yet.
164
00:07:53,957 --> 00:07:57,797
- Can you put me
in touch with...
165
00:07:57,832 --> 00:07:59,202
Phil Parkinson?
166
00:07:59,234 --> 00:08:01,214
- I can try.
- Okay.
167
00:08:01,238 --> 00:08:03,208
- I can try.
168
00:08:03,242 --> 00:08:04,812
- I think it's worth
a conversation.
169
00:08:04,846 --> 00:08:05,946
- Mm-hmm.
170
00:08:05,981 --> 00:08:07,951
[line trilling]
171
00:08:07,985 --> 00:08:11,025
[funky music]
172
00:08:11,058 --> 00:08:13,928
ROB: Phil. Hey.
173
00:08:13,964 --> 00:08:16,804
It's Rob McElhenney.
174
00:08:16,837 --> 00:08:18,507
How are you?
175
00:08:20,243 --> 00:08:22,683
Thank you for taking the time
to talk to me.
176
00:08:22,715 --> 00:08:26,655
Currently, I am in prep
for another season of "Sunny."
177
00:08:26,690 --> 00:08:30,700
So we're in the writing process
right now.
178
00:08:30,731 --> 00:08:32,971
It was a tough sell
insofar as we were asking him
179
00:08:33,002 --> 00:08:34,972
to drop down two
or three leagues,
180
00:08:35,006 --> 00:08:37,676
and some people could look
at that as steps backwards.
181
00:08:37,712 --> 00:08:40,322
But I just kind of laid out
for him
182
00:08:40,350 --> 00:08:43,790
what our vision
for the club is
183
00:08:43,824 --> 00:08:47,064
and why we thought
that the town deserved it.
184
00:08:47,097 --> 00:08:50,237
And we hoped that he was gonna
see the potential in that.
185
00:08:50,270 --> 00:08:52,710
RYAN: Boy, Rob just
kind of went after him
186
00:08:52,742 --> 00:08:54,242
like a dog with a bone.
187
00:08:54,278 --> 00:08:56,648
I think something about Rob
that a lot of people don't know
188
00:08:56,683 --> 00:08:59,123
is that Rob will not
get off the phone
189
00:08:59,154 --> 00:09:00,834
until he gets what he wants.
190
00:09:00,858 --> 00:09:02,658
I remember he called me
when I was 16,
191
00:09:02,695 --> 00:09:04,825
and when I got off the phone,
I was in my mid-40s
192
00:09:04,866 --> 00:09:07,336
and owned
a Welsh football club.
193
00:09:07,370 --> 00:09:10,710
So, you know, do not
underestimate Rob--
194
00:09:10,745 --> 00:09:13,575
I want to say McElhenney
is the name.
195
00:09:15,019 --> 00:09:17,829
- Yes. Well, it was great
talking to you, too.
196
00:09:17,859 --> 00:09:19,259
Okay.
197
00:09:19,294 --> 00:09:21,674
Okay, great.
Thank you.
198
00:09:21,700 --> 00:09:22,570
Bye.
199
00:09:24,873 --> 00:09:27,283
Well, we talked
for about an hour and a half.
200
00:09:27,310 --> 00:09:30,890
[Buddy Holly's "Everyday"]
201
00:09:30,918 --> 00:09:33,118
I think I sounded
like an asshole.
202
00:09:33,156 --> 00:09:36,296
[music continues]
203
00:09:36,328 --> 00:09:38,628
I don't know.
I really have no idea.
204

BUDDY HOLLY:
[singing] Love like yours
205
00:09:40,069 --> 00:09:42,909
will surely come my way
206
00:09:42,942 --> 00:09:44,612
ROB: I definitely sounded
like an asshole.
207
00:09:51,058 --> 00:09:52,928
WAYNE: Football is for a lot
not just about the football.
208
00:09:52,962 --> 00:09:55,172
It's about meeting in the pub
at 11:00, 12:00
209
00:09:55,200 --> 00:09:56,840
on the day of the game.
210
00:09:56,870 --> 00:09:58,910
It's not just pouring a pint
and having a chat.
211
00:09:58,941 --> 00:10:01,011
It's everything, you know--
a counselor.
212
00:10:01,045 --> 00:10:03,015
You know, people need an arm
round their shoulder.
213
00:10:03,049 --> 00:10:04,589
People want to confide in you.
214
00:10:07,959 --> 00:10:08,929
PERSON: Yeah.
215
00:10:10,430 --> 00:10:12,970
- Ah!
216
00:10:13,002 --> 00:10:14,372
Oh, yeah.
217
00:10:19,014 --> 00:10:20,224
No.
218
00:10:23,189 --> 00:10:26,159
PERSON: Fucking hell.
219
00:10:26,195 --> 00:10:28,325
[object clatters]
- Look at that.
220
00:10:28,366 --> 00:10:29,866
[child babbles]
No, leave it there.
221
00:10:31,372 --> 00:10:33,882
[laughter]
222
00:10:57,257 --> 00:10:59,387
- It's the kits
that's different.
223
00:10:59,428 --> 00:11:01,628
But the goalkeeper's kit
looks like--
224
00:11:19,134 --> 00:11:20,404
- Yeah, man, 1-0.
225
00:11:20,436 --> 00:11:21,666
Go on.
226
00:11:33,196 --> 00:11:34,996
Go on. What is it?
- Six.
227
00:11:35,033 --> 00:11:37,243
- Oh, the island again.
Go on, kid.
228
00:11:37,270 --> 00:11:39,840
[dice clatters]
Lenny's storming this.
229

Come on. Bedtime.

Come on, kiddo.
Come on, Charl.

[indistinct chatter]

00:12:04,792 --> 00:12:06,262
PERSON ON RADIO:
It's a beautiful day
234
00:12:06,295 --> 00:12:07,725
here in Wrexham,
235
00:12:07,765 --> 00:12:09,065
but that's not
what's on our minds.
236
00:12:09,101 --> 00:12:12,441
Preseason training begins
in just a few days' time.
237
00:12:12,474 --> 00:12:15,284
Are we gonna see a new manager
unveiled by then?
238
00:12:15,313 --> 00:12:18,753
Will the restructuring
of the squad have begun?
239
00:12:27,470 --> 00:12:30,480
- Emmett.
240
00:12:30,511 --> 00:12:32,381
Phil Parkinson--confirmed.
241
00:12:32,414 --> 00:12:34,554
Yay. Phil Parkinson.
242
00:12:34,585 --> 00:12:36,415
We've hit the jackpot,
haven't we? Let's be fair.
243
00:12:36,455 --> 00:12:37,785
Just brilliant, innit?
244
00:12:37,825 --> 00:12:38,955
I mean, it's absolutely
brilliant, innit?
245
00:12:38,994 --> 00:12:40,974
Phil Parkinson.
246
00:12:40,998 --> 00:12:43,068
- New manager.
What do you think?
247
00:12:43,102 --> 00:12:46,812
- Yeah, very exciting.
Very exciting.
248
00:13:01,438 --> 00:13:03,308
PERSON: He knows, yeah.
PERSON 2: Yeah.
249
00:13:03,342 --> 00:13:09,252
[light piano music]
250
00:13:10,557 --> 00:13:13,027
ANNOUNCER:
Wrexham here having
251
00:13:13,062 --> 00:13:16,402
to throw everything at this,
as Jarvis takes it on.
252
00:13:16,435 --> 00:13:18,365
That's a great pass as well.
253
00:13:18,406 --> 00:13:20,906
And they kick the ball
over towards Ponticelli.
254
00:13:20,944 --> 00:13:23,024
And they've got the equalizer.
255
00:13:23,049 --> 00:13:24,519
PHIL:
Growing up, I can remember
256
00:13:24,552 --> 00:13:26,522
going to watch games
with my dad
257
00:13:26,556 --> 00:13:28,426
and my brother and friends.
258
00:13:28,459 --> 00:13:32,399
My mum and dad actually
were Preston North End fans,
259
00:13:32,434 --> 00:13:33,944
which that's over
in Lancashire,
260
00:13:33,970 --> 00:13:35,570
and they were
season-ticket holders
261
00:13:35,607 --> 00:13:37,437
at Preston
when they grew up,
262
00:13:37,477 --> 00:13:40,117
and, you know, so it's always
been in my family.
263
00:13:40,149 --> 00:13:43,459
And I always had a desire
to be a footballer.

ANNOUNCER:
Primed and ready...
265
00:13:45,259 --> 00:13:47,199
PHIL: When Rob and Ryan
took over the club,
266
00:13:47,230 --> 00:13:50,070
it was big news
in the football world.
267
00:13:50,103 --> 00:13:52,413
ANNOUNCER: Position
could not have been better.
268
00:13:52,440 --> 00:13:55,380
PHIL: When I came in and
obviously looked at the squad
269
00:13:55,413 --> 00:13:57,623
and the infrastructure,
270
00:13:57,651 --> 00:13:59,521
there's a lot of work
to be done
271
00:13:59,555 --> 00:14:02,355
to make us
serious contenders.
272
00:14:02,394 --> 00:14:05,504
The people of Wrexham
I just think have been amazing
273
00:14:05,534 --> 00:14:09,044
in terms of the welcoming
they've given me and Steve.
274
00:14:09,074 --> 00:14:14,484
[rock music]
275
00:14:14,519 --> 00:14:16,589
Good, lads, good!
Better!
276
00:14:16,623 --> 00:14:18,893
Each day in training,
277
00:14:18,927 --> 00:14:21,167
I just want us to keep
concentrating on the process.
278
00:14:21,198 --> 00:14:22,468
Expectations have risen.
279
00:14:22,501 --> 00:14:23,641
STEVE:
Go on, then.
280
00:14:23,670 --> 00:14:26,010
PHIL: And the ultimate goal
is promotion.
281
00:14:26,041 --> 00:14:27,881
STEVE: Go on! Go on!
282
00:14:27,912 --> 00:14:29,352
PHIL: We're gonna
work tirelessly
283
00:14:29,381 --> 00:14:31,191
to try and achieve that.
284
00:14:31,218 --> 00:14:34,188
But we're trying hard
to keep the focus.
285
00:14:34,224 --> 00:14:36,604
Really important that
we get the detail right.
286
00:14:36,629 --> 00:14:38,169
STEVE: Guys, two lines!
287
00:14:38,199 --> 00:14:40,139
- Managers and players
at this football club
288
00:14:40,169 --> 00:14:41,469
are under more pressure.
289
00:14:41,506 --> 00:14:43,006
And they're under more pressure
290
00:14:43,042 --> 00:14:45,412
because the expectation
level is higher.
291
00:14:45,446 --> 00:14:48,116
[indistinct shouting]
292
00:14:48,152 --> 00:14:50,392
PHIL: We all understand
the expectation of the club.
293
00:14:50,423 --> 00:14:53,903
STEVE: Greens go to this end,
two ten-minute games.
294
00:14:53,930 --> 00:14:55,400
This needs to be a proper game.
295
00:14:55,433 --> 00:14:56,573
Play.
Away we go.
296
00:14:56,603 --> 00:14:58,213
- We've got to try
and get something
297
00:14:58,239 --> 00:15:00,179
out of a couple
of these players
298
00:15:00,209 --> 00:15:02,379
who haven't figured
a great deal in the past,
299
00:15:02,414 --> 00:15:05,354
the last season.
300
00:15:05,386 --> 00:15:07,986
And we've got to find the key
to unlocking their talent.
301
00:15:08,025 --> 00:15:09,925
STEVE: Last minute, Greens!
You got to get a goal!
302
00:15:09,962 --> 00:15:12,172
PHIL: The atmosphere
has been electric
303
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:13,570
inside the ground,
304
00:15:13,603 --> 00:15:18,053
and I think just the positivity
and the vibrancy--
305
00:15:18,078 --> 00:15:20,718
what Rob and Ryan have brought
to the area, you can feel it.
306
00:15:20,751 --> 00:15:24,661
[electronic music]
307
00:15:24,692 --> 00:15:26,462
PERSON ON RADIO: The start
of the season's nearly here.
308
00:15:26,496 --> 00:15:29,026
The ground staff
are working extra hard
309
00:15:29,067 --> 00:15:31,037
to make sure the Racecourse
looks its best
310
00:15:31,071 --> 00:15:33,911
for the first home game
against Notts County.
311
00:15:36,215 --> 00:15:39,045
ROB: I don't use social media
as well as my partner does.
312
00:15:39,087 --> 00:15:41,357
But I will say that...
[Ryan chuckles]
313
00:15:41,391 --> 00:15:43,531
As I'm navigating
through Twitter,
314
00:15:43,563 --> 00:15:47,273
a lot of the people
are asking us to sign
315
00:15:47,303 --> 00:15:49,683
a man named Paul Mullin.

00:15:49,709 --> 00:15:52,519

Here's Paul Mullin.
318
00:15:53,717 --> 00:15:56,047
Oh. [laughs]
Brilliant!
319
00:15:56,088 --> 00:15:58,028
He can't stop scoring!
320
00:15:58,058 --> 00:16:00,598
[indistinct shouting]
Mullin again!
321
00:16:00,631 --> 00:16:02,271
PHIL: He can score left foot,
right foot.
322
00:16:02,300 --> 00:16:04,070
He can score
at strange angles.
323
00:16:04,104 --> 00:16:06,044
He can head the ball in.
324
00:16:06,074 --> 00:16:07,754
Last year he scored
32 goals for Cambridge.
325
00:16:07,778 --> 00:16:09,718
He was the top scorer
in Division Two,
326
00:16:09,749 --> 00:16:11,589
which is a division
above this.
327
00:16:11,619 --> 00:16:13,619
- Yeah, I, too, get tagged
328
00:16:13,657 --> 00:16:16,027
in a lot
of Paul Mullin-related tweets.
329
00:16:16,061 --> 00:16:17,631
You know,
he's Cambridge United's
330
00:16:17,665 --> 00:16:18,725
top scorer last season.
331
00:16:18,767 --> 00:16:21,137
He's a top scorer
in League Two.
332
00:16:21,171 --> 00:16:23,711
Whether or not he'd be
interested in coming to us,
333
00:16:23,743 --> 00:16:25,713
that's something
that remains to be seen.
334
00:16:25,747 --> 00:16:27,717
- There needs to be
a little bit
335
00:16:27,751 --> 00:16:30,121
of expectation management.
336
00:16:30,156 --> 00:16:32,756
The top goal scorer
in League Two
337
00:16:32,795 --> 00:16:35,065
should be going
to the Championship
338
00:16:35,099 --> 00:16:37,069
or the top end
of League One.
339
00:16:37,103 --> 00:16:40,213
- Yeah, he finished last season
with 34 goals
340
00:16:40,243 --> 00:16:42,113
in all competition
at Cambridge United,
341
00:16:42,146 --> 00:16:43,446
won promotional league.
342
00:16:43,482 --> 00:16:45,792
- Wait, he finished
with 34 goals?
343
00:16:45,821 --> 00:16:47,361
- Yeah, in all competitions.
344
00:16:47,390 --> 00:16:48,590
Yeah. 34.
345
00:16:48,627 --> 00:16:51,567
- What the fuck?
Wow.
346
00:16:51,599 --> 00:16:55,269
- Just be careful
in how you set this up
347
00:16:55,306 --> 00:16:58,406
because Paul Mullin
should be unachievable
348
00:16:58,445 --> 00:16:59,645
for Wrexham Football Club.
349
00:16:59,682 --> 00:17:01,352
- That might be
a little bit impossible.
350
00:17:01,385 --> 00:17:03,285
- It's certainly going
to be...
351
00:17:03,322 --> 00:17:04,662
- Expensive.
- Very, very, very difficult.
352
00:17:04,692 --> 00:17:06,232
It'll take some persuading,
353
00:17:06,261 --> 00:17:07,801
even if you throw
everything at him.
354
00:17:07,831 --> 00:17:09,571
And if we do
throw everything at him,
355
00:17:09,602 --> 00:17:11,102
the budgets that we've set
356
00:17:11,138 --> 00:17:13,078
will completely
out of the window.
357
00:17:13,108 --> 00:17:14,238
ROB:
Yeah.
358
00:17:14,277 --> 00:17:16,347
- That's what I was
hoping to hear.
359
00:17:16,381 --> 00:17:21,731
[soft music]
360
00:17:21,759 --> 00:17:24,259
[indistinct chatter]
361
00:17:24,297 --> 00:17:27,607
- Here you go.
There's your scarf. Ready?
362
00:17:27,638 --> 00:17:29,468
- My name's Kerry Evans,
363
00:17:29,508 --> 00:17:32,548
and I'm a full-time volunteer
at Wrexham Football Club.
364
00:17:32,581 --> 00:17:36,221
[music continues]
365
00:17:36,255 --> 00:17:39,595
I got contacted
by Spencer Harris from the WST
366
00:17:39,629 --> 00:17:43,599
to say, "Is it okay to give Rob
or Ryan your phone number
367
00:17:43,637 --> 00:17:44,737
to give you a ring?"
368
00:17:44,772 --> 00:17:46,612
I was like, "Sorry?"
369
00:17:48,412 --> 00:17:51,792
Oh, I hope this rain stops.
370
00:17:51,819 --> 00:17:54,789
RYAN: We thought it was
important to hire somebody
371
00:17:54,825 --> 00:17:57,325
who is gonna
create accountability
372
00:17:57,363 --> 00:18:00,843
in terms of the stadium
being accessible.
373
00:18:00,871 --> 00:18:04,211
ROB: She exemplifies
the spirit of that town.
374
00:18:04,244 --> 00:18:06,384
So many people
that worked at the club
375
00:18:06,415 --> 00:18:07,815
were actually volunteers,
376
00:18:07,851 --> 00:18:09,491
and Kerry was
one of those people.
377
00:18:09,522 --> 00:18:11,392
So she was doing the exact job
378
00:18:11,425 --> 00:18:13,395
that we hired her to do
already
379
00:18:13,429 --> 00:18:17,339
and had been for many years
and was doing it for free.
380
00:18:17,370 --> 00:18:19,540
- I say to everybody,
I'm a full-time volunteer
381
00:18:19,575 --> 00:18:21,575
because I do a full-time job.
382
00:18:21,613 --> 00:18:24,483
I work every day of the week,
and I'm always at the matches.
383
00:18:24,518 --> 00:18:26,818
Hi, Chal.
384
00:18:26,856 --> 00:18:28,556
Yeah, you?
385
00:18:28,593 --> 00:18:31,233
I had a meeting
with Humphrey and Fleur.
386
00:18:31,264 --> 00:18:33,674
They did offer me
paid employment.
387
00:18:33,703 --> 00:18:35,843
PERSON: Okay. You all right?
KERRY: Lovely to see you.
388
00:18:35,874 --> 00:18:37,244
See you later.
389
00:18:37,276 --> 00:18:39,406
We've obviously been
on the benefit system
390
00:18:39,447 --> 00:18:41,847
because of our situation
for many, many years,
391
00:18:41,886 --> 00:18:44,726
and it was very scary to think,
392
00:18:44,759 --> 00:18:47,229
"Am I capable of doing
393
00:18:47,263 --> 00:18:49,873
the transition
of doing paid work?"
394
00:18:49,902 --> 00:18:52,412
I found that quite...
395
00:18:52,440 --> 00:18:55,450
sort of a heavy decision
on my shoulders.
396
00:18:55,479 --> 00:18:58,789
It scares me. It scares me,
the commitment of it.
397
00:19:01,291 --> 00:19:06,171
I really struggled with,
could I cope with my health?
398
00:19:06,201 --> 00:19:09,311
And my family all said to me,
"You're doing it.
399
00:19:09,341 --> 00:19:11,481
"You know, it's not a case
of can you do it.
400
00:19:11,512 --> 00:19:13,282
You're doing it already."
401
00:19:13,315 --> 00:19:15,315
I can do one for a couple
of games at a time.
402
00:19:15,353 --> 00:19:17,193
And then just when you want
to go back, let me know.
403
00:19:17,223 --> 00:19:19,663
It will be a very proud moment
404
00:19:19,695 --> 00:19:22,195
to go back
into full-time employment,
405
00:19:22,233 --> 00:19:25,343
something that I never, ever
dreamed would be possible.
406
00:19:28,580 --> 00:19:29,950
ROB: Would you like a peanut
butter and jelly sandwich?
407
00:19:29,982 --> 00:19:31,892
HUMPHREY: Yes.
ROB: Hell, yeah.
408
00:19:31,919 --> 00:19:35,489
Where are we with Paul Mullin?
409
00:19:35,527 --> 00:19:38,527
- Well, I mean,
Phil's made contact with him.
410
00:19:38,566 --> 00:19:40,696
And Shaun has,
rather more importantly,
411
00:19:40,737 --> 00:19:42,337
made contact
with his agent.
412
00:19:42,373 --> 00:19:43,613
Somewhat unsurprisingly,
413
00:19:43,643 --> 00:19:47,383
the agent has been agenting
pretty hard.
414
00:19:47,417 --> 00:19:50,887
It just comes down
to the age-old question of,
415
00:19:50,924 --> 00:19:54,304
do we want to pay as much
as they want us to pay them?
416
00:19:54,330 --> 00:19:56,800
- But he wants to move closer
to his family, right?
417
00:19:56,836 --> 00:19:58,336
- Right.
And truth be told,
418
00:19:58,372 --> 00:20:00,412
that's the only reason
we've got a shot.
419
00:20:00,443 --> 00:20:03,253
We'll have to pay a premium
to get him to drop divisions.
420
00:20:03,282 --> 00:20:05,392
- Okay.
Do you think he's worth it?
421
00:20:05,419 --> 00:20:09,929
- If I were you and I owned
the football team...
422
00:20:09,962 --> 00:20:12,532
yes, I'd buy him.
423
00:20:12,568 --> 00:20:14,968
- [mouth full] Wow.
- Yeah. Because--
424
00:20:15,005 --> 00:20:16,705
- You said that
with conviction.
425
00:20:16,743 --> 00:20:18,413
- [mouth full] Yeah.
426
00:20:18,445 --> 00:20:20,845
- I believe
I heard you say,
427
00:20:20,884 --> 00:20:23,524
you would put your job
on the line, right?
428
00:20:23,556 --> 00:20:25,726
Didn't he say that?
- At no point did I say that.
429
00:20:25,761 --> 00:20:27,661
I said I'd spend--
Here's what I'm saying--
430
00:20:27,698 --> 00:20:29,698
I'd happily spend your money
on Paul Mullin.
431
00:20:29,735 --> 00:20:31,705
I mean, I got to
talk to Ryan again,
432
00:20:31,739 --> 00:20:34,509
but I think he'll go for it
433
00:20:34,545 --> 00:20:36,345
knowing that you were willing
to sign the contract
434
00:20:36,381 --> 00:20:38,251
that stated...
- That I'd get fired--
435
00:20:38,285 --> 00:20:39,655
- That you get fired
if Paul doesn't--
436
00:20:39,688 --> 00:20:41,428
HUMPHREY: Yeah.
- He might not be worth it.
437
00:20:41,458 --> 00:20:42,628
- He can be worth it.
438
00:20:42,661 --> 00:20:43,961
- Okay.
439
00:20:43,997 --> 00:20:48,537
[dramatic music]
440
00:20:48,573 --> 00:20:51,243
WINTER:
Ready? Go. Go on.
441
00:20:52,614 --> 00:20:54,454
[speaks indistinctly]
442
00:21:04,003 --> 00:21:05,443
Cool, innit?
443
00:21:08,613 --> 00:21:11,253
Don't think you get many
better views than this, do you?
444
00:21:24,410 --> 00:21:27,620
[running footsteps]
Can we help you over?
445
00:21:27,651 --> 00:21:30,621
[claps hands, chuckles]
446
00:21:30,657 --> 00:21:33,597
[grunts]
[child giggles]
447
00:22:24,732 --> 00:22:28,712
[cheers and applause]
448
00:22:28,740 --> 00:22:29,710
PERSON ON RADIO:
The pandemic's
449
00:22:29,742 --> 00:22:31,652
kept the fans for 18 months.
450
00:22:31,679 --> 00:22:33,919
But now,
still full of excitement
451
00:22:33,950 --> 00:22:35,390
after Paul Mullin arrived,
452
00:22:35,419 --> 00:22:39,499
it's time for a party as they
return home to the Racecourse.
453
00:22:39,528 --> 00:22:41,768
WAYNE:
Football's more than a game.
454
00:22:41,799 --> 00:22:43,839
I think the famous
Bill Shankly once said that,
455
00:22:43,870 --> 00:22:45,770
"It's not life and death--it's
more important than that."
456
00:22:45,807 --> 00:22:47,077
I'm a huge football fan.
457
00:22:47,109 --> 00:22:49,779
So, to myself and to the people
of this town,
458
00:22:49,815 --> 00:22:52,985
it's incredibly important,
especially the club next door.
459
00:22:53,021 --> 00:22:55,661
- Fourteenth season
in this non-league.
460
00:22:55,694 --> 00:22:57,664
- Isn't that the longest
anybody's been down?
461
00:22:57,698 --> 00:22:59,398
- Probably. Probably.
- I think so.
462
00:22:59,434 --> 00:23:01,814
- We've got to get up
this time.
463
00:23:01,839 --> 00:23:03,439
- And we've got to get out.
464
00:23:03,475 --> 00:23:06,645
- This town, like no other town
around, deserves a break.
465
00:23:06,682 --> 00:23:08,592
Economically
and from a football aspect,
466
00:23:08,620 --> 00:23:09,760
we need a break.
467
00:23:09,788 --> 00:23:11,558
- Are we gonna win today,
Arthur?
468
00:23:18,773 --> 00:23:21,853
[indistinct chatter]
469
00:23:21,879 --> 00:23:23,479
PERSON ON RADIO:
There's no doubt
470
00:23:23,516 --> 00:23:25,086
who the headline signing is.
471
00:23:25,119 --> 00:23:27,589
Everyone's paying attention
to Wrexham now,
472
00:23:27,624 --> 00:23:29,094
'cause Paul Mullin's here.
473
00:23:29,127 --> 00:23:31,457
But thanks to new manager
Phil Parkinson,
474
00:23:31,499 --> 00:23:34,139
Wrexham fans will be seeing
a lot of fresh faces
475
00:23:34,170 --> 00:23:35,440
out on the pitch today.
476
00:23:35,472 --> 00:23:36,942
Everyone is keen to see
477
00:23:36,976 --> 00:23:39,716
what this freshly rebuilt
squad is capable of.
478
00:23:39,748 --> 00:23:41,618
- The buzz that's going
round Wrexham at the minute
479
00:23:41,652 --> 00:23:42,962
is absolutely fantastic.
480
00:23:42,988 --> 00:23:44,358
So hopefully
that can spur them on,
481
00:23:44,390 --> 00:23:47,760
especially with the crowd
back in the Racecourse today--
482
00:23:47,798 --> 00:23:50,838
might make
for a good atmosphere.
483
00:23:50,870 --> 00:23:52,010
- He's got to win it,
doesn't he?
484
00:23:52,039 --> 00:23:53,939
- So important.
485
00:23:53,977 --> 00:23:55,747
- New manager, all the changes
in the stadium...
486
00:23:55,780 --> 00:23:57,680
new players...
487
00:23:57,718 --> 00:24:00,688
you know, he's got to win it.
- Mm.
488
00:24:00,724 --> 00:24:03,704
- Please, please, please win
the first match, you know,
489
00:24:03,730 --> 00:24:06,540
and then we're off to a good
start, then, aren't we?
490
00:24:06,569 --> 00:24:08,539
Oh, please.
[laughs]
491
00:24:08,573 --> 00:24:10,543
[rock music]
492
00:24:10,577 --> 00:24:13,677
[indistinct chatter]
493
00:24:13,716 --> 00:24:17,556
- Fire in your fucking bellies
and ice in your veins.
494
00:24:17,591 --> 00:24:19,531
So we're playing with passion,
495
00:24:19,561 --> 00:24:20,831
but we want to see
that class as well.
496
00:24:20,864 --> 00:24:22,804
Let's get both
of those two right tonight,
497
00:24:22,834 --> 00:24:24,144
and we'll have a great night.
498
00:24:24,170 --> 00:24:27,580
Come on, boys. Come on, boys.
[players cheering]
499
00:24:27,611 --> 00:24:29,881
MARK:
The noise is terrific here
500
00:24:29,915 --> 00:24:31,685
at the Racecourse.
501
00:24:31,719 --> 00:24:34,829
Two stands open, and they're
packed full of people
502
00:24:34,858 --> 00:24:37,498
who want to hear
and to be heard.
503
00:24:37,531 --> 00:24:40,501
[cheers and applause]
504
00:24:40,537 --> 00:24:43,007
[music continues]
505
00:24:43,041 --> 00:24:45,651
As Mullin's about
to get the game under way.
506
00:24:51,024 --> 00:24:53,734
