We don't want
to hang on for your 100th.

it's costing

to stay down in this league.

00:13:18,541 --> 00:13:19,675
Yeah, I know.
365
00:13:19,675 --> 00:13:20,878
And--and that's what I worry,
366
00:13:20,878 --> 00:13:22,615
that they'll get fed up of,
367
00:13:22,615 --> 00:13:24,586

investing in the club.

here for the long term.

Yeah.

But when the bills
keep coming in--
371
00:13:29,461 --> 00:13:32,200
you know, we made
a loss again this time.
372
00:13:32,200 --> 00:13:34,371
You know, we need to get back
in the league
373
00:13:34,371 --> 00:13:36,576

and claw some money back.

last financial year,
384
00:13:58,486 --> 00:14:01,693
there was a ££4.8 million
cash introduction.
385
00:14:01,693 --> 00:14:04,098
That sits on top
of the 2 million, obviously,
386
00:14:04,098 --> 00:14:05,667
when you bought--
when you bought the club.
387
00:14:05,667 --> 00:14:07,270
And obviously, you've
continued to fund the club

RYAN:
It did, yeah.
397
00:14:22,167 --> 00:14:23,202
So that's the sort of thing--
that's sort of where--

RYAN:
I was gonna use the urinal.
399
00:14:24,438 --> 00:14:25,507
HARVEY: 10 million
is the headline figure.
400
00:14:25,507 --> 00:14:27,645
Of course,
that's the snapshot in time
401
00:14:27,645 --> 00:14:30,083
of how much it's cost,
not how much is it worth.
402
00:14:30,083 --> 00:14:32,286
If you were to sell
the club today,
403
00:14:32,286 --> 00:14:34,357
you know, you would get
far more than the ££10 million
404
00:14:34,357 --> 00:14:35,494
you ever paid.
405
00:14:35,494 --> 00:14:38,299
So I think that's
the actual realistic metric.
406
00:14:38,299 --> 00:14:40,269
Let's just say we're in it
for the rest of our lives.

at what point do I get paid?

it's the--it's the memories.
409
00:14:44,377 --> 00:14:46,816
It's the--the memories
are what you get paid.

I've been trying
to do that for--that's my--

my entire career
is based on that.
417

You can't start to make
money until you get promoted.
418
00:14:59,274 --> 00:15:00,977
Now, there's lots
of owners in League One
419
00:15:00,977 --> 00:15:02,180
and League Two
will tell you, you can't
420
00:15:02,180 --> 00:15:03,517
make money there either.
RYAN: Yeah.
421
00:15:03,517 --> 00:15:04,819
HARVEY:
But the value that's coming
422
00:15:04,819 --> 00:15:06,589
from the global appeal
that we've been able to create
423
00:15:06,589 --> 00:15:08,927
is going to offset
those additional costs
424
00:15:08,927 --> 00:15:10,664
that we've--that we've created.
425
00:15:10,664 --> 00:15:13,336
The biggest thing that's
gonna change on promotion
426
00:15:13,336 --> 00:15:15,039
is not actually we're gonna
play in League Two,
427
00:15:15,039 --> 00:15:16,342
which does bring more money,
428
00:15:16,342 --> 00:15:17,978
gets us into the mainstream.
429
00:15:17,978 --> 00:15:20,750
But actually, also, people
can see the value
430
00:15:20,750 --> 00:15:22,220
of Welcome to Wrexham.
431
00:15:22,220 --> 00:15:23,890
They can see the value of
the profile that's being built.
432
00:15:23,890 --> 00:15:26,262
And that's when the additional
sponsorship revenue can be
433
00:15:26,262 --> 00:15:28,533
generated on the back of that,
which will give us
434
00:15:28,533 --> 00:15:30,804

in the EFL will moan

PERSON: Lord God,
we thank you for the city
518
00:18:29,495 --> 00:18:31,465
in which we live and work,
519
00:18:31,465 --> 00:18:33,970
for the diversity
of its population,
520
00:18:33,970 --> 00:18:37,410
its visitors, and supporters.
521
00:18:37,410 --> 00:18:40,450
For by their lives, they make
Wrexham the place it is
522
00:18:40,450 --> 00:18:42,287
and a good place too.
523
00:18:42,287 --> 00:18:44,357
So the morning
of the Notts game,
524
00:18:44,357 --> 00:18:47,998
we were awarded the
Freedom of the Borough award
525
00:18:47,998 --> 00:18:51,672
from, uh, Wrexham Council,
um, which is quite an honor.
526
00:18:51,672 --> 00:18:53,710
Which, if I'm not mistaken,
grants us certain privileges...
527
00:18:53,710 --> 00:18:54,846
It does.

that we have yet to exploit.
529
00:18:56,916 --> 00:18:59,320
Or have we?
530
00:19:00,624 --> 00:19:02,795
We thank you
for the opportunity
531
00:19:02,795 --> 00:19:05,700
that the football club
brings this city.
532
00:19:07,404 --> 00:19:09,440

Uh, thank you.
538

Obviously, it's--it's, uh,
an incredible honor to be here.
539
00:19:23,703 --> 00:19:26,208
One of the great things
about football
540
00:19:26,208 --> 00:19:29,180
is that it's a great unifier.
541
00:19:29,180 --> 00:19:31,451
I've been able
to forge these connections
542
00:19:31,451 --> 00:19:34,925
between people who live
all the way across the world.
543
00:19:34,925 --> 00:19:38,432
The point is that no matter
how different you might feel
544
00:19:38,432 --> 00:19:40,871
than someone else,
you know that when you sit
545
00:19:40,871 --> 00:19:42,607
and you watch that game
at the Racecourse
546
00:19:42,607 --> 00:19:44,477
that we're all united
and we're all together.
547
00:19:44,477 --> 00:19:46,783
And, uh, I'm--I'm truly
honored and blessed
548
00:19:46,783 --> 00:19:50,590
to--to have been
accepted into this community.
549
00:19:50,590 --> 00:19:52,694

[applause]
552

The thing that kept me present
throughout that experience
553
00:19:58,540 --> 00:20:01,278
was, um, thinking
about the bigger picture:
554
00:20:01,278 --> 00:20:04,619
so many people
who went through the struggle
555
00:20:04,619 --> 00:20:08,493
to get us to this point
that we're at right now.
556
00:20:08,493 --> 00:20:11,197
Rob and I, we don't really
look at running this club
557
00:20:11,197 --> 00:20:13,503
as ownership
or even as cochairmen.
558
00:20:13,503 --> 00:20:15,205
We believe that we're stewards
to this club
559
00:20:15,205 --> 00:20:16,441
and this community.
560
00:20:16,441 --> 00:20:19,414
And we believe that we are
stewards to the story.
561
00:20:19,414 --> 00:20:22,353
I heard a woman say, well,
why can't it ever be us?
562
00:20:22,353 --> 00:20:24,357
- Yeah.
- Why can't we ever win?
563
00:20:24,357 --> 00:20:26,662
And she was talking
about the football club,
564
00:20:26,662 --> 00:20:28,733
but she was talking
about so much more.
565
00:20:28,733 --> 00:20:33,509
And I don't pretend to believe
that just winning
566
00:20:33,509 --> 00:20:35,279
a football game
or winning the football league
567
00:20:35,279 --> 00:20:37,851
is going to bring people
568
00:20:37,851 --> 00:20:39,521
everything
that they've ever wanted.
569
00:20:39,521 --> 00:20:41,191
But I think if--if--
if it brings them
570
00:20:41,191 --> 00:20:44,330
just at least a feeling
of hope and optimism,
571
00:20:44,330 --> 00:20:47,237
then I'm--I'm very proud
of that.
572
00:20:47,237 --> 00:20:48,673
In a sense,
I'm embarrassed to say
573
00:20:48,673 --> 00:20:51,277
there's a "fake it
till you make it" moment there
574
00:20:51,277 --> 00:20:53,583
that suddenly,
like in a romantic comedy,
575
00:20:53,583 --> 00:20:55,854
you--you find yourself
in the third act going,
576
00:20:55,854 --> 00:20:58,192
but then I actually did
fall in love.
577

579

And I would say
that the only real
580
00:21:04,370 --> 00:21:07,310
pain points, uh, for me
and, I know, for Rob
581
00:21:07,310 --> 00:21:09,548

this whole community
