Who's here after they just got promoted to League One?
me
Yep
still 1 game left for direct promotion, they r currently 3rd
@@I_am_DarthVaderLook at the team in 4th place and tell me if they can catch them
@@jeremieguay4189 if they don't get the automatic promotion, which is most likely to happen, we never know what will happen in play offs. I hope wrexham qualifies
Swear it’s been like 5 years a welsh club was in the prem
Yeah, I think last was Cardiff? Not sure tho
@@davudpalic8201no it was Swansea Cardiff haven’t been in it for ages like since 2014 Swansea haven’t since 2018

I just hope they don't spend all that on just players. But on facilities, stadium and coaches as well.
On welcome to Wrexham they cover alot of what the expenditure is that you might not think of. They bought the stadium back so it's club owner and invested in redeveloping a stand. As well as putting a bar in there while making sure it wouldn't negatively affect a local pub people go to before games. Other things they've invested in is accessibility and hiring people who were previously volunteering to keep the club alive
While I understand the desire- Better players equal wins. Wins equal promotion. Promotion equals money. Money equals better players. And so forth. Facilities are secondary to all that, somewhat unfortunately
@@Jay-ku3urno without the right level of facilities it is completely and utterly unsustainable. At some point IF RR and RM still own Wrexham they will need to put significant funds into the training ground, build up their academy AND the ground. You can get away with it in the lower leagues but in the Championship and in the prem. Those things can be a difference maker in how competive you can be long term. In the prem most clubs don't make it past 10 years. You can't just replace and buy an entire 25 man PL quality squad on just TV money or owner debt. Everton are proving that right now.
@@eagle_rb_mmoomin_418Getting into the Premier League is probably not a mid term goal for Reynolds and McElheeney. They know how much they need to spend to have a team fitting at least the EFL Championship, and likely they will want to wait if the team ever gets to it. Luckily, the team have a big potential for being profitable. About the academy, if Wrexham ever haves an big academy, because of the area it would be able to get players from, it's going to be very effective to run and will help the team a lot.
@@Otto500206 Given they are spending on a new stand at Wrexham I think they are fully aware that they need to sort out infrastructure. As they go up the league FFP becomes more and more relevant so a bigger ground and revenue is what will be needed as Wrexhams costs go up.
Now just 2 promotions 🏴🏴🏴❤
@@tengilleclearly don’t watch much League 1 drastic difference from league 2 to 1
Don't get excited we're nowhere near the prem lad
Little do we know that our back to back promotion will become a triple promotion at the end of this season
I found Hamster ☘️💪🏼
I dont care
@@XJokermanXwell done bro
@XJokermanX, shut up. It's an amazing achievement
Miss Stat Wars man...
😮 all those potential seasons of Welcome to Wrexham!
A northern Welsh club in the Premier League of the EFL might make up for Edward I.
the premier league is not a part of the EFL, its a separate entity
Exactly how i play manager mode 😊
I have a career mode in FIFA 23 with a League Two side in Crewe Alexandra and I’m two months (in game time) away from possibly making it to the Premier League for the first time ever so yeah
After 3 years of continuing success and 2 back to back promotions all indications are it’s a winning formula❤
When the takeover first happened I didn’t think they’d do it. Now that I’ve seen the impact I would absolutely not be surprised if they eventually did
I think an AFC Bournemouth template following their promotion to League 1 would be the best bet (spend 2 seasons in League 1 then repeat in the Championship and BOOM premier league football)
Update: They have just been promoted to League One
A big advantage is the revenue turnover they'll have by the time they get to the epl, it won't just be another team promoting to the top flight, they'll be stacked with the best possible staffs and revenue
Why do people keep saying Wrexham will do a Luton.
So that means get to the top league ,then back to the bottom with loads of points deducted ,then back to the top on shoestring budget.
Wrexham have never been in the top flight so in theory it would take them at least 13 years to achieve it.
Also Luton didnt have rich owners.
So people get a grip.
Miss u hamil how’s life at the athletic
It looks strange seeing the premier league trophy in red white and black. 12 seasons old photo at least
My prediction is promoted now 2 years in league one, 4/5 in championship and then finally reach the Orem in 2030
So they’d only be in the championship a season or two? Actually laughable if you think that.
Its not just the money. Its the money combined with the brain trust. They started on the right path by hiring top management and coaching. And they seem to truly listen to them. Add in the right psychological attitude to keep their players heads in most games and owners who are smart enough to always do as the experts say and the final ingredient is signing players who truly want to be part of the story. That's how they got Mullin. That's how they got Foster. It is a business but they are treating all players well by being open and honest and looking out for them outside of their sports careers. That is a competitive edge in a job with a very short shelf life that can be vaporized at any given moment by a bad injury. Each step gets harder and requires luck, but they are controlling everything they can contol.
For sure. My wish is another back to back
They’re already vying for a league 1 promotion! I give it two years max but they may do it this year
Do hope they did, but it will be best if they took their time to plan ahead short and long term.
Starting from their stadion, facilities, sponsors, scouting homegrown players, etc.
I studied near wrexham,place called Ruabon. I usually go to wrexham to watch football. I love N. Wales!! I really want them to rise to the challenge.😂🎉
If they carry on u can see them attracting high profile prem and Europe players. Fairplay to Wrexham they deserve all the spoils and more.
Leave 1 now🥳
They will I do it everytime in football manager with wrexham 🤣
I’m approaching 50 in a couple of years, I pray I’d get to watch Wrexham AFC, and the longsuffering good people of Wrecsam, celebrate their promotion into the Premiership. And continue celebrating as they sustain their stay there for decades long after we all have gone home to the good Lord 🙏🏼
Bro I love your content and it seems so professional I think is the right thing to say and I think you should have way more followers so keep up the good work cause content if this quality is going places
Maybe but dont know if they stay there most likely championship with finance bringing in.
Man like hamil I wondered where he went ..
Retired and his son is now playing for inter milan
Hamill is still alive! Finally he’s back on our screens! Welcome back Hamill
There's a rule in pl right that team has at least 1 home grown player in starting line up?
Am i wrong?
Yes.
City found a loophole by having their third choice goalkeeper play less than 10 minutes in a season
@@BronAsrealPhil Foden?
Can we talk about Stockport though how have they done it
not b2b
The money helps, but their Hollywood benefactors are more than likely going to lose interest LONG before the 10 season, if they're lucky, hike to the PL. Less than 20 % of the team will still be playing due to age, so you have to hope training and recruitment stay on track. You're trying to guess the future TOO far out and with WAY to many hurdles and variables to accurately say. Good luck to them, but honestly, this is just more "flash" coming from their TV fame.
The question is, does the city of Wrexham metropolitan area have the numbers/population to sustain the club in the premier league? They can make it with all the current and recent fanfare, but when thats worn off will they maintain that level? Or is the goal to make it to one season in the premier league then, who cares after that? "We did our job, got them to the league. We're gonna sell it now and, good luck."
Come on WREXHAM
Two more now..
it's gonna take time right now notts county is doing better in their league.
Wrexham will never make the prem without richer owners
Exactly. That is why they have rich owners
Luton did it so very possible.
ryan sold mint for 1 billion, hes got the funds. plenty of
lol you can say that about literally every single club. Come off it mate
They'll bring more backers in as they move up the leagues. Current owners can only afford to keep them in the Championship x
They'd get to the premier League much earlier than Luton
They're on course to move to ligue 1 and I guess they'd move to the championship in another season or two afterwards.
The championship may take time but not 4 years, maybe 3 seasons at most
If they win today just 1 more victory to be promoted to league 1
There is no content in this video, you don’t discuss how Luton managed to get to the prem and how wrexhams strategy might differ given their resources
Ignore Luton, look at Ipswich. Bring the right coach in and magic happens.
If they can build a good youth basis etc they will be set
2027 and I'm in the championship with them in football manager 2024. I think 2 or 3 seasons then I will be in the Prem. 2030 Wrexham in the Prem is realistic
It's not if... It's when.
The glorious and most mighty Luton Town are different class. We’ve done the near on impossible without fame or wealth. Liverpool got lucky yesterday scoring in injury time to draw with Luton 1-1. Liverpool’s squad=£800million. Luton’s squad=£10million!!!!! One eight the cost of several of Liverpool’s substitutes!! We are the most mighty.
It's kinda unfair how popular Wrexham has become and how much money they make.
Yeah they get on TV for cup games despite having a lot of money and resources. My club Reading could only dream of this. They get point deductions and financially are terrible due to the owner
Nah thats just football. Wish more clubs had owners like ryan and rob and less people like mike ashley
The games the game, Ryan and Rob did their job well and got their team exposure.
Why? they have a great story. They have great owners. They actually pull off cupsets. Their games are entertaining. They have their own TV show to further engage fans with behind the scenes access. And they score lots of goals
Unfair?? That's business you gotta spend money to make money. If clubs aren't investing, then it's slowly dying.
They will and so much sooner!
What’s the point of going up to the epl to finish bottom ten each year?
But to follow in Luton’s footsteps you first have to break the league 2 record of 12 concessive league wins
Up the county!!! 🔵⚪️🔵⚪️🎩🎩
Don’t replicate Luton Town too much. They’re only going to be in the premier league for a season 😬
true
Not necessarily don't count The Hatters out yet
What if a Irish football club was allowed to compete in EFL League One?
🤔
no explanation of the actual strat
They will make it but they will not last as Rob and Ryan will become minority owners at that level. I love Rob but he can’t sacrifice more than his life savings and Ryan is just along for the ride, Rob was the architect, if Rob goes I think Ryan will too.
I'm American,is that right? The next league up is just so much more
Whilst it's true that they're outclassed wealth rise when they make it further up the football pyramid but FFP does help them a bit that the Saudi Crown Prince can't just put all of his treasury into Newcastle thankfully
Well wrexham are second in league 2 so its already looking better for them
They gunna need another year in league 2 to get to league 1
yeah I can't see them getting promoted this season.
They probably do but they're still in with a shout at it stands to get promoted but if they get the playoffs they're screwed lol
@@pinkbeatle2012 yeah?
Stockport 5
Id love to see it happen…
anyone club TBF.
To see something like that happen is witnessing history as it happens.
Like Leicester City winning the prem out
of nowhere.
It’s a cool thing if, in 30 yrs
ur able to say…
“I was there”
The way older people talk about watching Pele or Maradona.
We can all look back and talk about how we watched Ronaldo and the
‘best player to play the game’ ever…
Messi!
We was there witnessing history! 🤪🤪
always negativity in the comments , isnt it a refreshing change to see club owners actually giving a shit about the club ? Personally I think being a good championship side is achievable for us. But after being in NL for 15 years anything else from here on is a massive bonus
ryan and rob will soon need to find a source of money to fund the club not from their net worth if they are in the championship.
theyll get it from trophies they pick up along the way
Luton doing it will always be more impressive than wrexham if they do it
Dorking would be the most impressive if they do a club made by friends in 1999 imagine the limbs if they get promoted from the Vanarama National League to get into the professional leagues. It doesn't look likely this season for them but it's only their 2nd season at this level were their manager does practically everything at the club bar the groundskeeper lol
Hamil ♥️♥️
getting into EPL shouldn't be the focus, it's about staying in there... Luton is out of the EPL...
100% they will
100% they won’t.
With 20 million in league two theres not much you CANT do@@dan5974
Most Wrexham will get is mid table championship then no one will care anymore
Birmingham city fc, hold my beer 🍺 who! KRO
Could do....but it's a funny old game.
We need 50+1 back
Ya, that's when rob & than will bail, he's s venture capitalists, did it with the gin, the ohone co. Everyone thinks it's acool story, they're basically the chelsea &an city of lower league
FM23 thought me that loans will get you to the top
hope they do
Itll tske them 5 years or less imo
I think they will
Maybe not make I I three years...but 6 easy... champions is tough!!
I hope not
Wrexham buying success = good
City doing the same = bad >:(
man city has 115 charges and numerous accusations of bribery within the system, they are an extremely corrupt club ran by the prince of an extremely corrupt country, whereas wrexham is just owned by two hollywood guys who combined have a budget equal to about a league one mid table club
Yh I hope
What about Wimbledon fc
A very good rise from the 8th tier I believe to the 3rd tier is a mad journey for any club but especially a phoenix one to meet MK Dons up there is mad but Dorking is more like Wimbledon in that sense a newer club approaching the professional leagues
Why are you doing that voice?
Imagine if Ryan Reynolds was Arab😂😂😂
So… what was the plan ?
I hope they don’t.
League 2 and great turnover... they should sign Haaland
Dam
yes hamil!
Yes
You’re having a laugh.
They will by around 2027
RR business brain will guarantee they will..
@@TheAthleticFC well after 15 years out the league…you have to have confidence…otherwise we could end up like our near neighbour’s Chester watching flat cap and dog football forever …
YES❤
yes
Crewe alexandra
YES
West ham are massive❤❤❤❤❤❤!!!!!!!!!!!!
West Ham are nothing to do with this
@@nottinghamforest1229still massive ⚒️⚒️⚒️
More like medium sized
So what’s the plan???
Be like luton
Exactly, what is the plan? What is the blueprint? Let's find out, oh, let's not!
I miss you Hamil
The other teams in their league literally can't compete with them in terms of players and budget. It's going to be embarrassing if they don't make it to the premier league
What 😂😂😂
Have you watched any of our games
Wrong and wrong
first hamster since 2021
Hamdog
Luton ain't doing too good😅
But they aren't getting relegated for sure the bottom three is going to be
1. Everton
2.Burnley
3.sheffield united
Call me what you want but i don't see Luton getting relegated this season
No but it's to be expected their squad isn't quality they overperform even in the Championship last season they had higher odds of getting relegated then promoted despite their great season before that. They've got a bite to them and I've been saying it since the start of the season I don't think they will get relegated. They may very well do but I can see atleast three teams worse then them thus far and when you factor in Everton's points deduction coming soon they've got a good chance of staying up this season
