  1. Yeah…..if any Hollywood actors are interested……Oxford United are a team that's been stripped bare and nearly bankrupted by a crap owner who got them relegated from the league a few years ago……plus they will most likely be playing Wrexham next season 😂😂😂 so…..any A-lister interested…..give us a call😂😂😂😂😂😂

  4. On the back of Wrexham's shirts is 1934 – this is a place that knows and respects it's history… and the pain that this community has grown from. Cymraeg Cofio – Us Welsh remember.

  12. why in the world cant you just say english football, or better yet world football, we do you the curtesy of calling your "hand egg" or "rugby for boys" sport "American football" even if that has nothing to do with balls and just token feet usage.

  16. If you have to ask why Wrecsam ( Wrexham ) Google is your friend. Wish all these news outlets would spend even 5 mins to get the narrative correct. We've been in the division below the premiership in my lifetime, won the LDV, been to Wembley, had bigger crowds than the stadium currently holds or will even hold when the new Kop's built. The real question is why it's taken so long for someone with genuine positive reasons to come into the club and get us to the level we can easily hold our own in which would most certainly be at least league 1 …. Ryan & Rob well done lads, you know and that makes you one of us. COYR

  18. So let's be honest here they brought in players that were far, far more expensive than most National League teams could afford. They got Ben Foster who played for United and Watford to un-retire and play in goal. A lot of the squad are EFL worthy players. So it's not exactly a true underdog story…

    They've been the Yankees of the lower tiers.

  21. Few more leagues than it's right up to the premier league 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂….they need to spend a lot more money to get there

  25. Better than anything american sports ever produced. I feel like we are missing out here in north america. The atmosphere is crazy, and they dont need jay z to perform at half time show. Those are proper sports

  26. Can I explain something for North American viewers?
    The reason that Wrexham will play in the English Football League despite being a Welsh team is because it was formed before there was a Welsh football league. The Welsh league was only formed in 1991 and is now called Cymru Premier (Cymru is the Welsh word for Wales). So when Wrexham was formed they had no option but to play in the English League along with a few other Welsh clubs and they still do.
    In case you're wondering, (Great) Britain is made up of three historical countries: England, Scotland and Wales.
    The United Kingdom is Britain plus Northern Ireland.
    The lesson is over.
