      Hi, I spoke with Turf landlord, and the Wales & USA flags are due to them playing each other in the recent World Cup. I did take along a Canadian flag 🇨🇦 but I was told all flags are coming down. So Draig Drone had his pic with the flag near the end of the video. 👍

      Many thanks Rob. Unfortunately a representative at the club thinks otherwise despite the drone work being within the realms of the Civil Aviation Authority guidelines.
      Following two rather unprofessional phone calls from the club, I am told a letter is being sent to me. I am unsure what the letter will contain, but as I am within the law with the dronework I shall publicly share any contents I deem unreasonable.

      @@DDV1 My hunch is that Rob & Ryan will side with the people, all of whom value your efforts. Shutting you down defeats the club’s purpose of building transparent collaboration with the fanbase. Rather than assuming that ‘Welcome to Wrexham: Season Two’ might somehow be compromised by your work, the opposite is true. You’re throwing more light on the scene.

      @@DDV1 What is the mystery bureaucrat thinking? Aside from a possible business motive, too Byzantine for public consumption, there are no good reasons for denying us the excitement of watching change at the Kop in real time. For anyone paying attention to North Walian sensibilities, the Kop stood as a national treasure. Generations of miners and their families gathered there in song. An intense zeitgeist of belonging centers on a space that is as much about the nation’s sense of self as Owen Glyndwr and the mother tongue. For these reasons, it feels as though resistance to the drone footage stems from someone’s failure to understand the Kop’s profound symbolism and importance within the general public. North Walians can’t accept the Kop’s disappearance without thorough archival work carried out, ideally with the blessings of the club. It’s a spiritual thing. It’s a Celtic thing. To rip the Kop down without due reverence almost feels like the Romans cutting down an oak grove on Anglesey. If the work is to be carried out without us seeing, it feels sacrilegious. My guess is that one of the non-Welsh executives has revealed his/her cultural blind spot. These executives are all vital players in the club’s progress. We're grateful for their expertise, and Rob & Ryan appointed them with unerring wisdom, but no Welsh person would thwart Draig Drone Video when it comes to honoring the past. Bureaucratic bloody-mindedness can be a helpful thing, but not now, not here.
