PERSON: Champions!

NARRATOR: While the spotlight
may well be firmly on Wrexham,

bringing all eyes with it,

the former
bustling mining town

is finding many areas
are still suffering,

something our plucky
cochairmen plan to rectify

with some very practical
business decisions.

Nowhere is their instinct
to waste time and money

more perfectly illustrated
than in the birthday wars.

Battle one commenced

with Ryan dedicating a urinal
in Rob's honor

before Rob returned fire
with his big red balloon.

♪ ♪

Last year, Ryan conjured up

some Hollywood magic
by mobilizing a musical army.

- It's called It's McElhenney.
- It's McElhenney.

And hopefully, that's how
you actually pronounce it.

[laughs]
We wrote the whole song.

[bell rings]

narrator: Yep, that's
Oscar winners Pasek and Paul,

the same Pasek and Paul
responsible for the music

in Dear Evan Hansen,
La La Land,

The Greatest Showman,

and one Emmy away
from an EGOT,

who wrote a little birthday
song for Rob's birthday.

[jaunty upbeat music]

Is Rob good enough for this?

[laughter]

NARRATOR: But this year,
in a classy counterattack,

Rob is taking
all that exposure

and focusing it firmly
on the heart of the town

to make more of an impact
than a silly stunt

involving a big-time celebrity.

[Chris clears throat]

[pen clicks]

What am I doing here?

Um, you know how
Ryan and I are always

doing these elaborate things
for each other's birthdays?

Yes.
ROB: Yes.

OK, so this year-

I don't. I don't know,
but I'm excited.

Oh.
CHRIS: Tell me.

Um, this year, um,
my idea involves a park.

Oh.

Oh.

Oh, and 'cause
I was on P-

[light energetic music]

♪ ♪

NARRATOR: OK, so maybe
one big celebrity megastar.

Chris helped reveal that Rob

is building a park
in Ryan's honor in Wrexham

so they can have movies,
pop-up restaurants,

and community events
that will hopefully

drive a ton of foot traffic
and revitalize business

in the area of the town
where it's needed.

But the big question is,

if you build it,
will they come?

Come on.
Let's have a kick.

Come on.
PERSON: Go on.

ANDY:
It's a Wrexham ball as well.

Again.

Oh, poor.
PERSON: Oh, very good.

[person chuckles]

- Take care.
- Welcome to Wrexham.

ANDY:
[chuckling] And you too.

[person chuckles]

ANDY: I'm Andy Williams.

I'm the mayor
of the city of Wrexham

and the county borough.

I used to hear people saying,

if you ask them where
they came from, they would say,

"Oh, we live
just outside Chester."

But now, you've got people
that live just outside Chester

saying that they live
just outside Wrexham.

I think the easiest way
of describing the link

is, the club is the community

and the community is the club.

So this is the site
of Rob and Ryan's new park.

Yeah, yeah.

It's a far cry
from where it was.

It was a derelict
and dilapidated area.

HUMPHREY: There's an area
in the center of Wrexham

that was once, for 33 years,
an important public hall

until, in 1906,
it tragically burnt down.

It then served the community

as the Wrexham Hippodrome
Theatre and film venue

for 100 years
all the way until 2008,

when it also
tragically burnt down.

The site has largely remained
closed to the public

since that time.

ANDY: I'm really,
really looking forward

to seeing this progress
into Rob and Ryan's vision,

really, for the community.

I like it already.

So I think it's pride,
pride of belonging,

pride of being part of what

the city of Wrexham
is becoming.

Football is a massive
part of it now.

It is.

[laughs] You never know.
You never know.

It might come, it might come.

Can't be only 15.

That's, uh-if we keep on
getting promoted,

bring more people in.

Yeah, well, I hope so,

because I got bets
on them qualifying.

I've had it on
since they were-

before they got promoted
last time.

Oh, I can't say.

HUMPHREY: I think one of the
risks that we run at Wrexham

is the danger of the popularity
of the documentary

and the growth of interest
in Wrexham

from around the world
prices out local people,

fans, people that have
been part of the club

for much longer than we have.

And we have to be on our guard
at all times,

as I say,
to center local opinion,

local, uh, thinking,

and ensure that, you know,
the tail doesn't wag the dog.

[soft upbeat music]

♪ ♪

SHAUN: The first aspiration
when we started

was to get into the EFL.

And it's only when
we got into the EFL

that our horizons
have broadened.

If we'd have turned
around and said,

"We want to make as much
progress through the EFL

as quickly as possible,"

then we've always got
a position to defend.

But no, that was never going
to be Rob and Ryan's style.

You know,
and Rob's in particular.

We want to get
to the Premier League,

and we want to get there
as quickly as possible.

You know, you set yourself
a target of that nature,

you're putting a metric down
for people

to measure you against,

and how long are people
prepared to wait until

it's a case of Rob McElhenney
and Ryan Reynolds

fail in their objective

of getting Wrexham
to the Premier League?

JON: Wrexham have
just been promoted

into the football leagues,

and there's one question
on everyone's lips,

and that is,
when can we expect them

in the Premier League?

And how much will it cost
for Wrexham to make it

from the fourth tier
up into the Premier League?

Well, we handed this problem
to TIFO's financial expert,

Abhishek Raj.

He crunched the numbers,

and he came back to us
with a few estimations.

So he estimates for Wrexham
to get from League Two

to League One, it's going
to cost around $10 million.

The same again from League One
to the Championship,

but once you get
to the Championship,

those costs rocket right up.

So he reckons that once you get
to the Championship,

the cost of getting
into the Premier League

is then going to be around
$150 million to $200 million.

Now, I've included
these figures in dollars

because the owners of Wrexham
are American.

Now, those owners are in fact

Ryan Reynolds
and Rob McElhenney,

who are very famous actors
in the United States,

I'm told, which is good news

when you're
in the National League

because they have
a lot of money,

but relatively
to the Championship,

they do not have a huge amount
of money.

SHAUN: Getting stuck
in the Championship,

from a footballing
perspective,

a lot of fans would accept.

You know, playing Championship
football week in, week out

was a distant pipe dream
for Wrexham fans

before Rob and Ryan came along.

PHIL: Shaun.
SHAUN: Hey, Phil.

The challenge of getting stuck
in the Championship

is the financial cost.

Even now, there's already
investment in the ground

and the staff and bringing
in high-caliber players

like Boyle and Evans,

also bringing in players with
Premier League experience,

like James McLean, Fletcher,
and Arthur Okonkwo.

Rob and Ryan had put
over ££8 million

into Wrexham Football club
to get us into League Two.

And although Rob and Ryan
seem to have a lot of money,

the net worth
of Premier League clubs

is exponentially higher.

Most Premier League clubs
have owners

with billions of dollars.

That's billion with a B,
not million.

That's a lot.

That dwarfs Rob
and Ryan's pocketbooks.

Rob and Ryan are going to be
taking bigger and bigger risks

the higher they go up
in the leagues

because there is
a vast difference

between Hollywood actor money
and, say, oil money.

From a financial
point of view,

it seems clear that Wrexham
are well set up

to fly through the divisions

and get through
to the Premier League.

They may even do it
in record timing.

We're looking
at a best estimate

of between seven
and ten seasons

before we see Wrexham
in the Premier League

playing sustainable
Premier League football.

[static buzzes]

SHAUN: You know,
we're putting it all in

to try and be successful.

You know, at some stage,

if they aren't successful
in doing that,

people may just turn on them.

It's difficult to see that
at this moment in time,

but that's the reality.

Football clubs
fall out with their owners

on a regular basis.

And there's no reason that

Wrexham won't go down
that same route

unless we get everything right.

there are already stores
that are popping up.

Coming into Wrexham,

I found most of the foods

And bringing those flavors
to Wrexham was a gamble

because we didn't know
if people would accept

what we had offering because
it's a different culture

coming into the Welsh arena.

if we start with a mild sauce,

maybe we'll get acceptance.

we'll build tolerance,

You got to run downstairs
and redo the taps.

Yeah, I'm learning now.

And I'll be in the Turf today

doing a couple of hours
before the game serving.

ROB: There's just so much
history in these buildings.

You can utilize the history.
It feels good.

[sniffs]
It smells good.

We haven't even had a chance
to talk about Mia

and how she's doing,

but I found out...
NEIL: Yeah.

About Mia not making the club

the same way
that she found out.

And I went and saw it

and was like,
"This can't be true.

Not that I make
any of those decisions

or that it was the
right or wrong decision,

just about communication
and how she found out,

which didn't feel right to me.

[somber music]

NEIL: I had to have
my dad hat on,

making sure I was there
for her if she needed me,

not getting too involved...
ROB: Mm-hmm.

NEIL: Because she's
a 20-year-old young woman

that needed to sort of
learn...

ROB: Mm-hmm.

As well how to deal
with those situations.

And for me, that was
probably the best thing

to come out of it all
is that she handled it

in such a way that made me
sort of step back and say,

"Wow I'm-I was proud anyway,
but I'm even more proud now."

And she's studying
and living in Manchester.

She's on a degree

for international
football business.

She's still doing
what she loves.

And at the same time,
she's, maybe,

a little bit future-proofing.
ROB: Mm-hmm.

You know, Ryan and I,
it's easy for us to say,

"Well, we're not there
day-to-day.

Um, we're not the ones
that are"-

We're hiring people
to make those decisions

or create those pipelines,
but ultimately,

if we pass the buck like that

and don't take responsibility
or accountability,

then that's irresponsible.

We have to make sure
that that doesn't

happen to the next person.

NEIL: Now, that's refreshing.
That's refreshing.

ROB: We're trying.
[Neil chuckles]

NEIL: Some of the players
that are at Wrexham now,

they've got some
fantastic businesses

that sort of complement and
run alongside their football.

And that's a sign of the game
off-pitch has changed,

whereas when I was playing,

you had to solely focus
on what was going on on-pitch.

I think for the footballers
long-term,

I think it's a good thing.
I do.

[soft upbeat music]

OLLIE: Rob had a meeting
with us last season.

It was amazing.

He come out and he said,
"Listen, lads.

ROB: I just want to have
a quick conversation with you

that has nothing to do with
what's happening on the pitch.

Ryan and myself, Rob, I want
to help you grow businesses.

I work in the same business
as you do,

insofar as
our careers are short,

and we need
to maximize our potential

as much as we possibly can.

So whether that means actual
advice, we're here for you,

or actual, you know, exposure

or help getting
some of those things started.

We want to help you
build your ability

to generate revenue
for your family

both in the short term
and in the long term.

I've had champions
that don't even fucking pay us.

You know,
what a fucking bloke.

Great bloke.

All right.
All right, then.

I've got to go.
I've got to shoot this advert.

PERSON: OK.
- All right. Bye.

[soft upbeat music]

We're not millionaires.

We retire with
not much of an education,

35 to 40 years old.

Who fucking drew that?
Is that me?

- That's you.
- That's fucking horrendous.

Without being
in any other industry,

and you've got to restart,

so you have
to build something.

So the main body of the film
is Humphrey going to be there,

explaining what HP
has done for Wrexham

and then what Wrexham
are doing for them.

And one of them is,

we've rearranged their staff
into a 3-5-2 formation...

- Yeah. [chuckles]
- To maximize performance.

DIRECTOR:
Cameras are set, and action.

OLLIE: OK, guys, we're going
to drop into a 3-5-2.

So can I get three chairs
at the back there, please?

Yeah, one more
on the right side, yeah.

One into the middle here.

Over this way a little bit.

OK, trust me.

This is going to work.

But we need our desks.

DIRECTOR: That's good.
[laughter]

PERSON: You ask, I'll deliver.

Ah!

Here you go.
It's yours.

OLLIE: Thank you very much.
[person chuckles]

Very kind.
Thank you so much.

Monitors.

Those two apparently have
got to be returned,

but if you let me know.

Spectre.
This is so cool.

I really need this
for my business.

PERSON: So if you flip it
all the way around,

it does a 360 view,
so your screen,

you can bend all the way
underneath your keyboard.

What, so,
I'm going to bend this?

PERSON: Yeah.

I'm going to bend
it all the way?

PERSON: Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Go on.

And then you can have it
in, like, a tablet mode, then,

when it's turned on.

Oh, shit.
And I can watch stuff?

PERSON:
[laughing] Yeah.

Retirement sort of means,

you know, just sort of
reprioritizing your life.

99% of people in this world
can't just say,

"I'm going to retire,"
particularly in this sport.

In football,
anything can happen.

OLLIE: A bit wobbly.

So obviously, I'm spending
a lot of time up here

and I'm away from my family

and wanted to use
my time wisely.

So we come up with an idea
to start a clothing brand

related to Wrexham
and something to represent

North Wales
as a clothing brand.

Can we do the sleeve trick
with this one?

I love this oversize.

- But it's massive.
- I love it.

- Is it a medium?
- I would wear this.

I would wear this.
- Like that?

Like this, little messy bun,
bit of a gold hoop.

- Yeah, me too.
- Gray joggers.

[laughter]

This is going to be fixed
a little bit like that.

Andy Cannon, takes his spot,

From that corner, nice little

Andy Cannon read it well.

Moving forward,
Hayden's the target.

It's gone beyond everybody.

In fact, he's headed it back.

Okonkwo comes out to meet it.

Good commanding goalkeeping

MARK: Arthur comes for
a cross, picks up a low cross.

And as he picks it up,
he takes a knee to the face.

You could see in his face
that he was in pain.

ROB: It seemed like
he went down for a ball
