Welcome to Wrexham Season 2

[TrinidadsNumberOne]

That Sunderland one was brilliant. The scene trying to decide what music to play over the tannoys pre match is unreal TV. And the deadline day shambles

You missed out Chris Coleman offering out a fan after getting relegated. That was football heritage.

I also enjoyed him swerving the admin lass asking if he wanted to get involved in the Secret Santa.

 

[TrinidadsNumberOne]

Two minutes in to the next episode and this Shaun Harvey arselicking is unbearable.

 

[Master D]

2 poor episodes today tbf. If people think the Wales one was bad wait until they see that Harvey one.

 

[TrinidadsNumberOne]

Rob McElhinney trying to loosely campaign for the scrapping of the 3pm blackout showing total ignorance as to why it's even there in the first place just sums up my disdain for the continued Americanisation of lower league football in this country.

They certainly mean well for Wrexham and have boosted the profile of the town and club but, ultimately, like most other American owners, they have no respect for our wider football traditions at all.

I enjoyed them, particularly the first loser episode. I particularly enjoyed the highlight of Dorking v Notts County.

A lot of the criticisms seem to come from people who want the show to be something completely different.

 

[RavenBish]

Finally got around to starting season 2. A bit surprised I’m an episode in and they haven’t mentioned that Notts County play really good football yet

It is a very underwhelming documentary I think, as a few have said, not a patch on the Sunderland one…but I guess there’s just an element that a doc on a dysfunctional football club will always be more entertaining than one about a non-dysfunctional club.

Eeh i love this nutts wrecsum rivalry nice for you lot and them

To be honest, we're not the show's target audience.

Exactly this.

 

[West Cheshire Reds]

Have they got actors with posh accents to play any English people in the series, just to appease the American audience as they can't get their heads around the fact we don't all talk like Prince Charles?

Hugh Grant's voice dubbed over Paul Mullin speaking for example.

Is there actually posh word for "erm" though?

And we all spend most of our days drinking cups of tea too.

 

[ForzaCounty]

And we all spend most of our days drinking cups of tea too.

Yeah, but they get lots of things wrong, too

They had an American actor playing Shaun Harvey, but he didn't speak.

[Pilot_Phonic]

The latest episode is really good, showing the excitement and magic of the cup. Also good to see Rob & Ryan take the piss out of Billy Blunt, and make him look like a complete tool (more than usual).

[EnglishRed]

what do you mean? Everton have relocated to Bangor and Blackburn up to Carlisle, hadn't you heard?

It is all over the place. Some people have pointed out misspellings in the episode too. Fullham and Blythe.

I do like how Shrewsbury is in Wales on that map though. Sick burn.

 

[1862]

I know Brentford have moved to a new ground since the last time we played them but that is not where I thought it was

 

[lordofthepies]

what do you mean? Everton have relocated to Bangor and Blackburn up to Carlisle, hadn't you heard?

Obviously I knew that. I didn't realise Brentford's new ground was quite so far north though.

 

[Gladders]

We're now playing in Hull too

 

[Pilot_Phonic]

Why do people get angry at where the clubs are? It's not exactly the end of the world. I think they've plonked any club any where on the map to prove a point that clubs can be anywhere that we come up against.

 

[EnglishRed]

I don't think anyone is getting angry. It is just quite funny where some have ended up. A few clubs seem to have been shunted about to fit the badges on but the placement of teams like Brentford, QPR and Everton are particularly odd.

An intern probably had 5 minutes to throw that together.

 

[Pilot_Phonic]

I've seen a thread where they are getting tetchy about the teams in the wrong geographical location. Quite funny. And for what, half a second air time?

 

[Conker]

Defend the soccerball documentary at all costs. I love the loyalty.

It's either a happy accident or a calculated troll but it does seem to have sparked engagement. I just went on Twitter and it was all over that on numerous football accounts

 

[northstandexile]

Why are we not on the map?

 

[LS Bantam]

Never seen it but out of all of those clubs, Wrexham must have played about four of them in the last 15-20 years.

Someone’s found the map that it’s from of all clubs in the UK. Obviously they can’t fit them all in the right place so there was lots of arrows on it pointing to where the badge actually should be, Brentford is on a bit of London superimposed on that bit right up north where there’s only Carlisle.
