1
00:00:13,752 --> 00:00:15,450
So I'm just making the list
2
00:00:15,537 --> 00:00:19,019
of who needs to be in
for a review today.
3
00:00:19,106 --> 00:00:21,456
So we've got quite
a busy morning.
4
00:00:24,111 --> 00:00:25,851
How are you? You all right?
- Yeah.
5
00:00:25,982 --> 00:00:26,983
It's gonna be a busy morning.
6
00:00:27,157 --> 00:00:28,550
I know, yeah.
I figured out.
7
00:00:28,680 --> 00:00:29,768
I hope you've
had your breakfast.
8
00:00:29,899 --> 00:00:31,205
Yeah.
9
00:00:31,335 --> 00:00:32,684
My name is Gemma Bamford.
10
00:00:32,771 --> 00:00:34,338
I'm the first team
sports therapist
11
00:00:34,512 --> 00:00:35,861
here at Wrexham Football Club.
12
00:00:35,992 --> 00:00:37,124
This is my sixth season,
13
00:00:37,254 --> 00:00:39,561
but it's my first season
with the first team.
14
00:00:39,735 --> 00:00:41,128
Yeah, and no bleeding
last night, this morning?
15
00:00:41,302 --> 00:00:43,347
No, no, fine. Okay.
16
00:00:43,434 --> 00:00:45,349
All right, that's fine.
I'm happy with that.
17
00:00:45,523 --> 00:00:47,569
Kevin's the
head physio within Wrexham,
18
00:00:47,743 --> 00:00:50,006
so I'm sort of just under him.
19
00:00:50,137 --> 00:00:54,141
So we'll both do assessments,
we'll both do treatments.
20
00:00:54,228 --> 00:00:56,708
And we'll both do the
rehabilitation side of things.
21
00:00:56,795 --> 00:00:59,276
You got to come
and speak to me, Rhys.
22
00:00:59,363 --> 00:01:01,887
Look how many people
I've got to see.
23
00:01:02,018 --> 00:01:04,716
- Still?
- Don't get involved.
24
00:01:04,803 --> 00:01:07,589
Go on, Gemma! Love that!
25
00:01:07,763 --> 00:01:10,026
Being a female in a
male-dominated environment
26
00:01:10,157 --> 00:01:12,811
can be challenging at times.
27
00:01:12,942 --> 00:01:14,900
You almost have to work
a little bit harder
28
00:01:15,031 --> 00:01:16,163
and say what you think,
29
00:01:16,293 --> 00:01:18,513
even if you're disagreeing
with someone.
30
00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:20,515
At the end of the day,
you've got a job to do.
31
00:01:20,689 --> 00:01:23,170
Okay, next one on.
32
00:01:23,257 --> 00:01:24,867
Certain times
are not the nicest,
33
00:01:24,954 --> 00:01:28,479
you know, dealing with feet.
34
00:01:28,653 --> 00:01:30,307
I don't think
anyone really wants to.
35
00:01:30,394 --> 00:01:32,614
They're not the nicest area
of the body.
36
00:01:32,744 --> 00:01:34,529
It's like, you know,
you just have to do it.
37
00:01:36,966 --> 00:01:39,969
[singing] Every day,
it's a-gettin' closer
38
00:01:40,056 --> 00:01:43,625
Going faster than
a roller coaster
39
00:01:43,755 --> 00:01:48,630
Love like yours will
surely come my way
40
00:01:48,804 --> 00:01:51,067
A-hey, hey, hey, hey
41
00:01:51,241 --> 00:01:54,418
Every day,
it's a-gettin' faster
42
00:01:54,592 --> 00:01:58,422
Everyone said
go ahead and ask her
43
00:01:58,509 --> 00:02:02,426
Love like yours will
surely come my way
44
00:02:02,600 --> 00:02:05,212
A-hey, hey, hey, hey
45
00:02:05,299 --> 00:02:10,347
Love like yours will
surely come my way
46
00:02:20,314 --> 00:02:21,880
Past again.
Davies takes a chance!
47
00:02:23,404 --> 00:02:25,319
We're into March,
48
00:02:25,493 --> 00:02:27,451
and Wrexham have just pulled
off five straight victories...
49
00:02:27,625 --> 00:02:28,713
Mullin
one-on-one with the keeper!
50
00:02:30,846 --> 00:02:32,674
Lifting them
all the way to third place,
51
00:02:32,804 --> 00:02:34,589
well positioned for the
final stretch of the season.
52
00:02:36,721 --> 00:02:38,680
As long as they can
keep everyone healthy,
53
00:02:38,854 --> 00:02:41,465
they should be challenging
for a top spot come May.
54
00:02:41,639 --> 00:02:43,337
Rob Lainton,
55
00:02:43,467 --> 00:02:44,686
he's been absolutely
outstanding, hasn't he?
56
00:02:44,816 --> 00:02:46,557
Yeah.
57
00:02:46,688 --> 00:02:48,124
I don't think you'll get a
better keeper, if I'm honest.
58
00:02:48,298 --> 00:02:49,908
Punched by Lainton.
Stretched really well there.
59
00:02:49,995 --> 00:02:51,910
ANNOUNCER 2: Back to Mitchell,
great stop by Rob Lainton.
60
00:02:52,041 --> 00:02:53,912
ANNOUNCER 3: It bobbles around
in the goalmouth!
61
00:02:54,043 --> 00:02:56,828
Lainton stretches!
That's a hell of a catch.
62
00:02:59,657 --> 00:03:02,138
We got 18 games left.
We got 11 at home.
63
00:03:02,269 --> 00:03:04,053
One word answer:
are we going up?
64
00:03:04,140 --> 00:03:05,489
Absolutely.
Thank you very much.
65
00:03:05,663 --> 00:03:07,709
Yeah, pleasure.
66
00:03:07,883 --> 00:03:09,232
So we went through
the scan with you.
67
00:03:09,363 --> 00:03:10,799
Nice and clear, yeah?
Mm.
68
00:03:10,929 --> 00:03:12,583
So the slight
horizontal tear
69
00:03:12,714 --> 00:03:15,195
you have the back in the knee
in the meniscus is stable.
70
00:03:15,282 --> 00:03:16,283
This one here?
71
00:03:16,413 --> 00:03:17,719
- Yeah.
- Yeah.
72
00:03:17,893 --> 00:03:18,937
So if we won
the league automatically,
73
00:03:19,068 --> 00:03:20,069
I'd want to get it done
straight away.
74
00:03:20,200 --> 00:03:21,636
Yeah?
75
00:03:21,723 --> 00:03:23,028
And whereas
if we get to the playoffs,
76
00:03:23,159 --> 00:03:23,942
I'd want it done straight
after the playoffs...
77
00:03:24,116 --> 00:03:25,509
The playoff--
78
00:03:25,596 --> 00:03:26,945
Get knocked out,
or the final,
79
00:03:27,076 --> 00:03:28,730
so that we can get you back
in the quickest time
80
00:03:28,904 --> 00:03:30,210
for next season.
81
00:03:32,299 --> 00:03:33,430
Gone through a few
years of bad injuries,
82
00:03:33,517 --> 00:03:35,171
and stop-start, stop-start,
83
00:03:35,302 --> 00:03:37,086
and I just want
to enjoy it again.
84
00:03:37,260 --> 00:03:39,044
You can't let your mind go,
85
00:03:39,175 --> 00:03:41,873
otherwise you won't do your job
to the best of your ability
86
00:03:42,047 --> 00:03:43,658
when your head's not in it.
87
00:03:43,745 --> 00:03:45,529
I won't stop doing
the things I'm doing.
88
00:03:45,660 --> 00:03:48,184
Where's Dibble?
He's not got his coat.
89
00:03:48,358 --> 00:03:50,099
Rob's absolutely brilliant.
90
00:03:50,273 --> 00:03:52,971
I know people say
91
00:03:53,102 --> 00:03:55,322
you're both fighting
for the same spot, but,
92
00:03:55,409 --> 00:03:56,888
you know, me and Rob
are good friends as well.
93
00:03:57,062 --> 00:03:57,889
Sorry love, off, but--
94
00:04:00,065 --> 00:04:01,980
Course you can.
Just me on top.
95
00:04:02,154 --> 00:04:03,547
In here.
- Go away, camera.
96
00:04:03,678 --> 00:04:05,201
No, it doesn't matter.
97
00:04:05,332 --> 00:04:06,550
Doesn't matter--
[laughing] Go away!
98
00:04:06,681 --> 00:04:07,986
You can get me.
Watch out here--
99
00:04:08,160 --> 00:04:10,337
Sugar. Right.
100
00:04:10,424 --> 00:04:11,338
Oh, you're very tall.
Yeah, very tall.
101
00:04:14,428 --> 00:04:15,342
Get one of them in there.
102
00:04:15,472 --> 00:04:16,691
Look, he can--
- Who's he? Who's he?
103
00:04:16,778 --> 00:04:17,648
Take a picture
of the other goalkeeper.
104
00:04:17,779 --> 00:04:18,562
There, that's Rob.
105
00:04:18,693 --> 00:04:19,998
He's the other goalie?
106
00:04:20,129 --> 00:04:21,435
All right.
107
00:04:21,565 --> 00:04:22,697
Oh,
my grandsons will love this.
108
00:04:22,784 --> 00:04:25,352
Rob Lainton, too.
109
00:04:25,439 --> 00:04:26,918
There we go.
And who's that in the front?
110
00:04:27,005 --> 00:04:28,659
That's Shaun.
Driver, driver.
111
00:04:28,790 --> 00:04:30,531
Oh. Is he a player?
He's a driver.
112
00:04:30,661 --> 00:04:31,662
He's both.
Track seat.
113
00:04:31,793 --> 00:04:33,011
Is he a--
114
00:04:33,185 --> 00:04:34,883
Shaun Brisley, yeah.
115
00:04:35,013 --> 00:04:36,493
What's--is he a player?
Shaun Brisley, yeah.
116
00:04:36,580 --> 00:04:37,712
I'm gonna get him.
117
00:04:37,799 --> 00:04:38,713
Yeah, get him as well.
118
00:04:40,889 --> 00:04:42,020
For my grandsons,
season ticket holders.
119
00:04:42,151 --> 00:04:43,805
They'll be over the--oh,
he's a handsome one and all.
120
00:04:43,979 --> 00:04:45,459
Yeah, isn't he?
Too, this.
121
00:04:45,589 --> 00:04:47,591
Handsome one. Bravo.
- You're all handsome.
122
00:04:52,379 --> 00:04:53,510
See you later.
123
00:05:02,302 --> 00:05:03,259
You hear that?
124
00:05:06,175 --> 00:05:08,264
We're just doing team shape
across the pitch, okay?
125
00:05:08,438 --> 00:05:09,396
So Rob's going to go
in that goal,
126
00:05:09,526 --> 00:05:10,397
and we're gonna attack
towards that goal.
127
00:05:24,585 --> 00:05:26,630
I've had many
setbacks in my career.
128
00:05:26,804 --> 00:05:28,632
I've had--I've had bad spells
in my career,
129
00:05:28,763 --> 00:05:30,504
and here at Wrexham,
130
00:05:30,678 --> 00:05:32,114
I just thought
I was getting my chance,
131
00:05:32,201 --> 00:05:34,638
but I'm just not playing.
132
00:05:34,812 --> 00:05:35,944
How'd you feel?
133
00:05:36,074 --> 00:05:37,946
You see other people
like your friends
134
00:05:38,076 --> 00:05:39,426
doing well and winning.
135
00:05:39,513 --> 00:05:40,296
Right tomorrow,
d'you know what I mean?
136
00:05:40,427 --> 00:05:41,558
And then toes goes back.
137
00:05:41,645 --> 00:05:43,647
It's--it's tough.
138
00:05:45,083 --> 00:05:46,520
Why can't I play in that game?
139
00:05:46,694 --> 00:05:47,869
I'm not gonna
fucking play tomorrow.
140
00:05:50,088 --> 00:05:53,178
For me, I just want
to get back playing.
141
00:05:53,309 --> 00:05:55,529
It makes me even more hungry
to prove more people wrong.
142
00:05:55,659 --> 00:05:58,793
It's science-based, innit?
143
00:06:03,754 --> 00:06:04,799
These two guys in it, look.
144
00:06:06,540 --> 00:06:08,237
Don't worry about Cam.
145
00:06:08,324 --> 00:06:09,456
All three of us
have been warriors
146
00:06:09,630 --> 00:06:11,545
in FUT Champs on FIFA.
147
00:06:11,675 --> 00:06:14,112
So you've got to play
20 games on the weekend,
148
00:06:14,286 --> 00:06:16,332
and the more wins you get,
the better packs you get.
149
00:06:16,506 --> 00:06:18,334
But it's ridiculously stressful.
150
00:06:18,508 --> 00:06:20,467
Never his ball.
Blow the fucking whistle.
151
00:06:20,554 --> 00:06:21,903
As you can hear by Tyler.
152
00:06:22,077 --> 00:06:25,994
He's got a corner in the
122nd minute of extra time.
153
00:06:26,124 --> 00:06:27,691
And you stay mentally
stable, that's the main thing.
154
00:06:27,865 --> 00:06:30,128
Yeah, well, you're supposed
to stay mentally stable.
155
00:06:30,302 --> 00:06:31,652
Yeah, but it's hard
156
00:06:31,782 --> 00:06:32,696
when you've got to sit
in a room with these two,
157
00:06:32,827 --> 00:06:35,482
'cause they can get
fucking annoying.
158
00:06:35,612 --> 00:06:38,702
My mental stability
is next to zero.
159
00:06:38,876 --> 00:06:40,400
Football plays obviously
the biggest part in it.
160
00:06:40,487 --> 00:06:42,576
And 22 years of age,
161
00:06:42,706 --> 00:06:44,491
I don't appreciate people
telling me white lies.
162
00:06:44,578 --> 00:06:46,797
I'd rather people
just be honest with me.
163
00:06:46,928 --> 00:06:48,930
So he started me
in the FA Cup game,
164
00:06:49,060 --> 00:06:50,279
said I was one of the
better players on the pitch,
165
00:06:50,453 --> 00:06:53,021
and then I didn't start again.
166
00:06:53,151 --> 00:06:55,719
He just brought me off the
bench whenever we were losing.
167
00:06:55,850 --> 00:06:58,156
And now it's like
the transfer window.
168
00:06:58,287 --> 00:07:00,507
I'm 22 years of age.
I want to go and play football.
169
00:07:00,681 --> 00:07:02,596
And I'm not being
allowed to go out.
170
00:07:02,770 --> 00:07:05,947
It's just--you know,
this job is so frustrating,
171
00:07:06,121 --> 00:07:07,383
because you want
to play football.
172
00:07:07,557 --> 00:07:08,428
I don't care about money
or anything like that.
173
00:07:08,515 --> 00:07:09,864
I just want to play.
174
00:07:09,951 --> 00:07:11,735
You know, I do try
and stay positive, lads.
175
00:07:11,909 --> 00:07:14,651
Pressure is on.
176
00:07:22,964 --> 00:07:25,880
Wrexham! Wrexham! Wrexham!
177
00:07:29,797 --> 00:07:31,494
Substitution of James--Jordan Davies.
178
00:07:31,625 --> 00:07:32,408
The ball goes through
to Coulson.
179
00:07:32,539 --> 00:07:34,279
Lainton with
an excellent save.
180
00:07:34,410 --> 00:07:37,326
And Lainton again--and the
ball's gone over the bar.
181
00:07:37,457 --> 00:07:41,635
Rob Lainton puts his body--
182
00:07:41,765 --> 00:07:43,898
body on the line
every single game.
183
00:07:46,161 --> 00:07:48,555
Go, Wrexham!
184
00:07:49,947 --> 00:07:50,687
Really taking one
for the team there,
185
00:07:50,774 --> 00:07:53,081
Rob Lainton.
186
00:07:53,211 --> 00:07:54,343
ANNOUNCER2 : Lainton's
going to have to come off
187
00:07:54,474 --> 00:07:55,997
in the 62nd minute.
188
00:07:56,127 --> 00:07:57,999
This isn't good.
189
00:07:58,129 --> 00:08:02,220
Christian Dibble is gonna be
the man in goal for Wrexham.
190
00:08:02,394 --> 00:08:05,746
Not one you want
to see at all,
191
00:08:05,876 --> 00:08:07,138
especially not
for someone like Robbie.
192
00:08:10,359 --> 00:08:13,144
Found it so hard to come by
with injuries and luck.
193
00:08:13,231 --> 00:08:14,363
Had a couple of times
this season.
194
00:08:14,450 --> 00:08:15,582
It's good to see
that he's sat up.
195
00:08:17,975 --> 00:08:20,021
But he looks
in some serious discomfort.
196
00:08:24,025 --> 00:08:26,810
And we wish Rob
a speedy recovery.
197
00:08:31,380 --> 00:08:33,556
And Dibble making his way
onto the field.
198
00:08:33,687 --> 00:08:35,732
Wrexham!
Wrexham! Wrexham! Wrexham!
199
00:08:35,819 --> 00:08:37,255
Wrexham!
200
00:08:46,787 --> 00:08:47,744
Hey, guys.
201
00:08:50,138 --> 00:08:51,531
Yeah, good.
How are you, mate? You okay?
202
00:08:53,358 --> 00:08:56,492
So I'll just go over
what you CT scan shows, Rob.
203
00:08:56,666 --> 00:08:59,713
Essentially, you got
a dislocated wrist, um,
204
00:08:59,843 --> 00:09:02,585
which is probably
one of the worst injuries
205
00:09:02,716 --> 00:09:04,631
you can have in the wrist.
Okay.
206
00:09:04,718 --> 00:09:06,284
The goals
of the operation
207
00:09:06,458 --> 00:09:11,289
are to assess all the injuries
and to stabilize the wrist,
208
00:09:11,463 --> 00:09:13,988
allowing you to return
to full play and full function.
209
00:09:16,730 --> 00:09:20,560
It is a potential
career-ending injury.
210
00:09:20,647 --> 00:09:22,431
Yeah.
211
00:09:22,518 --> 00:09:23,737
But if we do our best
and it heals well
212
00:09:23,911 --> 00:09:25,739
and you recover well,
I'd be hopeful
213
00:09:25,913 --> 00:09:27,784
of getting you back to play
as soon as possible.
214
00:09:29,786 --> 00:09:31,658
Maybe not that.
215
00:09:31,788 --> 00:09:33,616
Maybe not that quick.
216
00:09:33,747 --> 00:09:35,749
If you look at the
evidence surrounding this,
217
00:09:35,879 --> 00:09:37,098
I'll be hoping that
we put you in a plaster cast
218
00:09:37,228 --> 00:09:38,665
for your first eight weeks.
219
00:09:38,795 --> 00:09:40,101
If everything goes to plan,
220
00:09:40,275 --> 00:09:41,885
you come out
and start your rehabilitation,
221
00:09:42,059 --> 00:09:43,974
and I would hope
that approximately
222
00:09:44,148 --> 00:09:46,020
three months after,
you'd be looking at getting
223
00:09:46,107 --> 00:09:49,110
the full range of movement
and improving strength.
224
00:09:52,766 --> 00:09:54,115
ROB McELHENNEY: He's
inarguably the best goalie
225
00:09:54,245 --> 00:09:58,336
in the National League,
a major asset.
226
00:09:58,510 --> 00:10:01,905
Looks like it's going to be
about four months of recovery
227
00:10:02,036 --> 00:10:04,865
and it's devastating.
228
00:10:04,995 --> 00:10:09,696
The reality in sports is that
it's also an opportunity.
229
00:10:09,783 --> 00:10:11,567
When Rob got injured,
that was a blow
230
00:10:11,741 --> 00:10:13,221
because Rob had been
playing really well.
231
00:10:13,351 --> 00:10:14,918
So Christian Dibble
has come in,
232
00:10:15,092 --> 00:10:19,140
and I'm confident
in Dibbs anyway.
233
00:10:19,314 --> 00:10:20,445
But there is a difference,
234
00:10:20,576 --> 00:10:22,360
when suddenly,
you're now the man.
235
00:10:22,491 --> 00:10:25,059
Dibbs has got an opportunity
236
00:10:25,146 --> 00:10:26,800
to stake a claim
for the shirt.
237
00:10:26,930 --> 00:10:29,019
Good, Dibbs!
238
00:10:29,150 --> 00:10:30,499
As a goalkeeper,
239
00:10:30,586 --> 00:10:34,459
I think you got
to be so strong mentally.
240
00:10:34,590 --> 00:10:38,507
Last season,
I had a couple of bad games.
241
00:10:38,638 --> 00:10:40,074
Which, you know,
everyone's got--
242
00:10:40,161 --> 00:10:41,292
like I said,
everyone's gonna have 'em.
243
00:10:41,379 --> 00:10:44,034
But it was just the manner of
244
00:10:44,165 --> 00:10:45,819
some of the way the
Wrexham fans were towards me,
245
00:10:45,949 --> 00:10:48,473
sending me messages
on Facebook,
246
00:10:48,604 --> 00:10:50,650
Instagram, Twitter.
247
00:11:04,054 --> 00:11:06,404
It got to a point where I
didn't want to come into work.
248
00:11:06,578 --> 00:11:10,974
Like, I physically dreaded
playing in every game.
249
00:11:11,148 --> 00:11:13,107
You had 5,000 fans
on a player's back
250
00:11:13,194 --> 00:11:14,630
every single week,
251
00:11:14,761 --> 00:11:17,546
and he wants to go out
and do his best.
252
00:11:17,633 --> 00:11:18,982
And he's got that in his head
253
00:11:19,156 --> 00:11:20,201
every time he steps
on the football pitch.
254
00:11:20,375 --> 00:11:21,985
It's not easy.
255
00:11:22,116 --> 00:11:25,206
The season, the gaffer,
he said, "Look, come in.
256
00:11:25,336 --> 00:11:28,426
Be number two and give
good competition to Rob."
257
00:11:28,513 --> 00:11:31,778
And once my opportunity comes
around, I need to take it.
258
00:11:31,952 --> 00:11:33,344
So I'd like to think
259
00:11:33,431 --> 00:11:35,869
there isn't a number one
at this club
260
00:11:35,999 --> 00:11:38,088
who is going
to start every game.
261
00:11:38,219 --> 00:11:40,917
But obviously, the manager
gave that shirt to Rob,
262
00:11:41,004 --> 00:11:42,876
and then obviously
when he gets injured,
263
00:11:43,050 --> 00:11:47,141
I'm coming in and
I'm fighting for that shirt.
264
00:11:47,228 --> 00:11:49,883
I did start fresh
to start the season.
265
00:11:50,057 --> 00:11:53,451
But I had to do that,
because if I didn't do that,
266
00:11:53,582 --> 00:11:55,453
then I probably wouldn't
be playing football anymore.
267
00:11:55,627 --> 00:11:57,891
But it just sucked the life
out of me, really.
268
00:11:58,021 --> 00:12:00,110
Would have killed me, but
269
00:12:00,241 --> 00:12:02,678
I went into this season
knowing what I needed to learn
270
00:12:02,809 --> 00:12:04,811
from the season before.
271
00:12:04,985 --> 00:12:06,813
It started to get better
272
00:12:06,900 --> 00:12:08,249
because I felt more confident
in myself,
273
00:12:08,379 --> 00:12:10,251
you know,
in terms of the fans.
274
00:12:10,381 --> 00:12:12,122
I personally think
this season,
275
00:12:12,253 --> 00:12:15,256
I really have shown quite
a few of them what I can do,
276
00:12:15,386 --> 00:12:18,607
and I've hopefully changed
their mind a little bit.
277
00:12:23,699 --> 00:12:26,006
Well, here we go.
Match day 34.
278
00:12:26,136 --> 00:12:28,269
Wrexham squaring off against
the worst team in the league,
279
00:12:28,443 --> 00:12:30,750
Dover Athletic.
280
00:12:30,837 --> 00:12:34,579
They've been truly awful
this year.
281
00:12:34,710 --> 00:12:37,234
Serendipitous opposition
for Christian Dibble today
282
00:12:37,365 --> 00:12:39,759
as he continues to gain his
sea legs for the first team.
283
00:12:39,846 --> 00:12:41,282
On the current run of form,
284
00:12:41,412 --> 00:12:43,153
this game should
be a confidence builder
285
00:12:43,284 --> 00:12:45,068
for the new Wrexham's
number one.
286
00:12:45,199 --> 00:12:47,201
Prediction for today.
287
00:12:47,288 --> 00:12:49,594
I'm hoping for 3-0.
288
00:12:49,725 --> 00:12:51,945
- 4-0.
- 5-0, Wrexham.
289
00:12:52,075 --> 00:12:53,729
This is Rob.
290
00:12:53,903 --> 00:12:55,731
This is Ryan,
co-chairman of Wrexham AFC.
291
00:12:55,905 --> 00:12:57,602
Wrexham has been
doing so well recently,
292
00:12:57,733 --> 00:13:00,083
we've decided to call this
game against Dover Athletic,
293
00:13:00,214 --> 00:13:01,737
which is the
worst team in the league.
294
00:13:01,868 --> 00:13:03,652
And we are
of course joined by
295
00:13:03,739 --> 00:13:06,742
the incomparable voice of
Wrexham AFC, Mark Griffiths.
296
00:13:06,873 --> 00:13:08,962
Right,
we're about to get cracking.
297
00:13:10,920 --> 00:13:12,748
Just six minutes in,
Mullin blasts one in.
298
00:13:12,922 --> 00:13:14,881
Another Mullin special!
299
00:13:14,968 --> 00:13:17,666
Followed by James Jones,
who makes it 2-0, Wrexham.
300
00:13:17,753 --> 00:13:18,885
Very cool finish by Jones.
301
00:13:19,015 --> 00:13:20,234
I love this game.
302
00:13:20,321 --> 00:13:21,888
Well, Mr. Co-Chairman,
303
00:13:21,975 --> 00:13:23,106
it looks like
we have this one in the bag.
304
00:13:27,763 --> 00:13:29,547
What a goal!
305
00:13:29,678 --> 00:13:31,680
Oh, the Wrexham fans
are all applauding that,
306
00:13:31,854 --> 00:13:33,334
which maybe shows that
307
00:13:33,508 --> 00:13:35,249
we think this game
is not that challenging.
308
00:13:36,685 --> 00:13:37,686
2-all!
309
00:13:37,860 --> 00:13:38,905
Unbelievable!
310
00:13:39,035 --> 00:13:40,994
Wrexham are 3-2 down.
311
00:13:41,124 --> 00:13:44,040
Tozer has it--
he's in trouble here!
312
00:13:44,127 --> 00:13:45,694
Dibble--it's going to be 4-2.
313
00:13:45,868 --> 00:13:47,696
Dibble punched Tozer.
4-2.
314
00:13:49,829 --> 00:13:53,006
And now the anger comes.
315
00:13:53,136 --> 00:13:54,137
I can't believe what
I'm seeing here.
316
00:13:54,268 --> 00:13:55,878
Cross comes in!
317
00:13:56,009 --> 00:13:58,707
Gyasi, five.
Hat trick for Gyasi.
318
00:13:58,794 --> 00:14:01,710
Dover jumps ahead
by three goals.
319
00:14:01,841 --> 00:14:04,931
What just happened?
320
00:14:05,061 --> 00:14:06,584
Wrexham are falling apart.
321
00:14:06,758 --> 00:14:08,456
Christian Dibble
looks lost out there.
322
00:14:08,586 --> 00:14:11,154
Dover Athletic haven't scored
five goals this calendar year.
323
00:14:11,285 --> 00:14:13,026
But I'll tell you what,
324
00:14:13,156 --> 00:14:15,028
they just scored their
fifth goal in this match.
325
00:14:15,202 --> 00:14:18,161
Wrexham trail the worst team
in the league 5-2.
326
00:14:18,292 --> 00:14:19,728
My word.
327
00:14:25,995 --> 00:14:27,823
In a radical act
of self-care,
328
00:14:27,997 --> 00:14:29,042
I'm ending this episode early.
329
00:14:32,480 --> 00:14:34,612
But now I'm getting texts
to turn it back on.
330
00:14:34,786 --> 00:14:36,049
Goes back and that's a goal!
331
00:14:36,179 --> 00:14:37,746
Wrexham pull one back.
332
00:14:37,877 --> 00:14:39,487
It's getting the fans going,
333
00:14:39,617 --> 00:14:41,402
and they're responding
in fair play.
334
00:14:41,532 --> 00:14:42,272
I think we're going
to let Mark
335
00:14:42,403 --> 00:14:43,970
take it the rest of the way,
336
00:14:44,057 --> 00:14:45,841
but we do want to introduce
this decibel meter
337
00:14:45,972 --> 00:14:48,191
for no specific reason.
338
00:14:48,365 --> 00:14:51,194
Just a reminder,
this is Mark.
339
00:14:51,368 --> 00:14:52,761
Here's Jarvis,
running at his man,
340
00:14:52,848 --> 00:14:54,328
cutting in the box,
squares it up,
341
00:14:54,415 --> 00:14:57,070
chance at a shot,
driven--yes!
342
00:14:57,200 --> 00:14:59,550
It's in!
343
00:14:59,637 --> 00:15:02,423
What a brilliant finish
by Palmer!
344
00:15:04,207 --> 00:15:06,209
He toe bolted it!
A toe-buster!
345
00:15:06,383 --> 00:15:07,863
This is madness!
346
00:15:07,994 --> 00:15:08,908
We're back
in this game!
347
00:15:08,995 --> 00:15:10,997
Oh, well.
348
00:15:11,084 --> 00:15:13,651
Davies steps up, sweeps
it beyond the wall.
349
00:15:13,782 --> 00:15:16,350
Yes! Yes!
350
00:15:16,437 --> 00:15:18,352
Gareth Bale!
351
00:15:18,439 --> 00:15:20,223
We've got
Jordan Davies!
352
00:15:20,397 --> 00:15:23,661
Come on!
Five-all!
353
00:15:23,835 --> 00:15:26,360
We've got six or
seven minutes to play.
354
00:15:26,490 --> 00:15:28,231
Wow.
355
00:15:32,018 --> 00:15:33,671
Well,
we are attacking.
356
00:15:33,802 --> 00:15:35,586
What am I going to say
if we get another?
357
00:15:41,984 --> 00:15:46,554
It's the 97th minute.
It's another corner.
358
00:15:46,684 --> 00:15:48,382
Young under the bar,
it's side--
359
00:15:48,512 --> 00:15:49,687
flicked on!
360
00:15:49,818 --> 00:15:54,170
Yes! Yes! Yes!
361
00:15:54,257 --> 00:15:59,175
Yes! Yes! Yes! Yes!- Yeah!
362
00:15:59,262 --> 00:16:00,785
Just in case
you haven't realized,
363
00:16:00,916 --> 00:16:02,178
Wrexham have scored!
364
00:16:02,265 --> 00:16:04,354
Can't compete
with that!
365
00:16:04,528 --> 00:16:08,271
Everybody in the Racecourse
is on their feet!
366
00:16:08,445 --> 00:16:10,708
And I think
that win's in.
367
00:16:10,839 --> 00:16:15,061
Oh, my God!
368
00:16:15,191 --> 00:16:16,714
Wild afternoon!
369
00:16:16,888 --> 00:16:18,760
It's Always Sunny
in Wrexham!
370
00:16:19,979 --> 00:16:21,415
Oh, yes!
371
00:16:21,502 --> 00:16:24,287
There's that
final whistle!
372
00:16:24,418 --> 00:16:25,723
Wrexham have won this.
373
00:16:25,854 --> 00:16:27,160
I love football.
374
00:16:27,290 --> 00:16:30,293
Oh, my God.
I'm absolutely buzzing.
375
00:16:30,424 --> 00:16:33,644
What--I'm hoarse.
What a game that was.
376
00:16:38,171 --> 00:16:40,869
Hey!
377
00:17:26,871 --> 00:17:28,699
I picked a bad time
to stop biting my nails.
378
00:17:28,873 --> 00:17:30,484
I'm telling you,
379
00:17:30,571 --> 00:17:32,355
they're never going to survive
to the end of the season.
380
00:17:32,486 --> 00:17:34,488
They got to be down
to my knuckles by then.
381
00:17:34,618 --> 00:17:36,055
Oh, dear.
382
00:17:36,142 --> 00:17:37,578
And we beat Chesterfield.
383
00:17:37,708 --> 00:17:40,581
I think that's
when we started to believe
384
00:17:40,755 --> 00:17:42,278
that we had the chance. Yeah.
385
00:17:42,365 --> 00:17:45,238
Hang on to that
for the playoffs, belief.
386
00:17:45,368 --> 00:17:48,632
And how many goals have
we scored this season
387
00:17:48,719 --> 00:17:50,243
in the last minute?
388
00:17:50,373 --> 00:17:52,245
Or in injury time. Yeah.
389
00:17:52,419 --> 00:17:54,899
Which just goes to show
that we just don't give up.
390
00:17:55,030 --> 00:17:56,597
They've battled
and battled back,
391
00:17:56,727 --> 00:17:59,817
and the excitement,
we got to win now.
392
00:17:59,948 --> 00:18:03,299
And especially last minute
like that, it's like whoa.
393
00:18:03,386 --> 00:18:06,172
And isn't it lovely to
see all the people
394
00:18:06,259 --> 00:18:10,132
waiting outside the club
to get autographs?
395
00:18:10,263 --> 00:18:11,090
I mean,
we didn't used to have that.
396
00:18:11,177 --> 00:18:12,700
They'd all be gone.
397
00:18:12,830 --> 00:18:14,180
And seeing children
around Wrexham
398
00:18:14,310 --> 00:18:15,746
with Wrexham shirts.
399
00:18:15,833 --> 00:18:18,184
FAN 2: Yes.
Not Chelsea or Man United.
400
00:18:18,314 --> 00:18:19,620
Or Liverpool.
401
00:18:19,794 --> 00:18:20,751
Wrexham, yes.
FAN 2: Yes.
402
00:18:23,189 --> 00:18:26,496
It's been a lot more
popular with the students.
403
00:18:26,627 --> 00:18:29,282
There's more now deciding,
the younger ones,
404
00:18:29,412 --> 00:18:31,936
that are going
to be Wrexham fans.
405
00:18:32,067 --> 00:18:34,635
What do you think about Mullin?
406
00:18:34,765 --> 00:18:38,334
Super Paul Mullin.
It's cracking play, I think.
407
00:18:38,421 --> 00:18:41,859
The support
is just brilliant.
408
00:18:41,990 --> 00:18:43,644
It's a whole mindset, isn't it,
409
00:18:43,818 --> 00:18:47,996
of everybody's got
the same goal?
410
00:18:48,127 --> 00:18:49,519
There's a good rapport now
411
00:18:49,650 --> 00:18:53,088
between the players
and the fans.
412
00:18:53,262 --> 00:18:56,004
I think on our day,
we can beat anybody.
413
00:18:56,135 --> 00:18:58,224
It's just belief, I think.
414
00:18:58,311 --> 00:19:00,356
I think it's belief
in being able
415
00:19:00,443 --> 00:19:03,359
to work together as a team,
416
00:19:03,446 --> 00:19:05,231
seeing that
they put the effort in,
417
00:19:05,361 --> 00:19:07,885
seeing that
they play together,
418
00:19:08,016 --> 00:19:10,105
seeing that they care.
419
00:19:10,236 --> 00:19:12,673
They've got heart.
It's a difference.
420
00:19:20,115 --> 00:19:21,682
In football,
it is super tough,
421
00:19:21,812 --> 00:19:23,466
because it's so cutthroat.
422
00:19:23,597 --> 00:19:25,468
So you can be really close
to somebody,
423
00:19:25,555 --> 00:19:27,688
and then all of a sudden,
they're gone.
424
00:19:27,818 --> 00:19:29,211
He's gone from
one end of the country
425
00:19:29,342 --> 00:19:30,908
to the other end
of the country.
426
00:19:31,082 --> 00:19:33,041
And then you could probably
never see them again.
427
00:19:33,172 --> 00:19:34,564
I think that's why sometimes
428
00:19:34,695 --> 00:19:36,827
footballers don't get
emotionally attached,
429
00:19:36,914 --> 00:19:41,441
because there's so many
ups and downs with teammates,
430
00:19:41,571 --> 00:19:43,704
with fans, with a bit
of everything, really.
431
00:19:43,878 --> 00:19:46,837
Like again, getting attached
to a club, it's the same.
432
00:19:46,924 --> 00:19:49,405
You get attached to a club,
and then all of a sudden,
433
00:19:49,492 --> 00:19:50,624
you're never going to play
for the club again.
434
00:19:50,754 --> 00:19:53,496
So it's tough.
435
00:19:53,627 --> 00:19:54,845
Certainly, it's tough.
436
00:19:59,023 --> 00:20:00,938
With the players who've
been part of this journey,
437
00:20:01,069 --> 00:20:02,288
they've been part
of something special
438
00:20:02,462 --> 00:20:04,507
in terms of the ownership
of the club,
439
00:20:04,638 --> 00:20:07,380
the TV documentary,
440
00:20:07,510 --> 00:20:08,859
some of the fantastic games
you've had.
441
00:20:11,427 --> 00:20:12,733
Yeah, watching
each other's back,
442
00:20:12,863 --> 00:20:15,388
looking out for each other
is important.
443
00:20:15,518 --> 00:20:19,740
As a manager, you kind of
guide that and oversee it.
444
00:20:19,914 --> 00:20:22,743
And you try and make sure
that they move on
445
00:20:22,873 --> 00:20:25,311
to the next challenge,
you know,
446
00:20:25,398 --> 00:20:27,313
knowing that we've looked
after them
447
00:20:27,443 --> 00:20:29,532
or looked out for them.
448
00:20:32,318 --> 00:20:34,407
Yeah, from my point of view, Campbell,
449
00:20:34,581 --> 00:20:36,974
you've been great as a lad
and we're sorry to see you go,
450
00:20:37,148 --> 00:20:39,847
but I think we both know
you're frustrated, aren't ya?
451
00:20:39,977 --> 00:20:41,457
Yeah.
And you need to play.
452
00:20:41,544 --> 00:20:42,980
You know,
we don't give up anybody
453
00:20:43,154 --> 00:20:44,068
because we can't do loans.
454
00:20:44,199 --> 00:20:45,548
We want to keep
everyone 'round.
455
00:20:45,722 --> 00:20:47,420
But for you,
456
00:20:47,550 --> 00:20:48,769
I think with the career
you've had up to this point
457
00:20:48,899 --> 00:20:49,900
where you've not had enough
minutes of football...
458
00:20:50,074 --> 00:20:51,772
For sure.
459
00:20:51,946 --> 00:20:53,861
I feel it's unfair to stop
you having the opportunity,
460
00:20:53,991 --> 00:20:54,992
'cause that's what you need.
461
00:20:55,123 --> 00:20:56,429
I appreciate that.
462
00:20:56,559 --> 00:20:58,213
I think
you're a talented player.
463
00:20:58,344 --> 00:20:59,780
You don't want to be
the perennial sub, d'ya?
464
00:20:59,910 --> 00:21:01,434
No.
465
00:21:01,608 --> 00:21:03,436
And I think that you know
you're in the position
466
00:21:03,566 --> 00:21:05,438
of that could happen to you.
467
00:21:05,612 --> 00:21:07,657
And I think because of
your age, you need to play.
468
00:21:07,788 --> 00:21:09,224
No, I appreciate that.
469
00:21:09,398 --> 00:21:10,356
So that's why we've
decided to let you go.
470
00:21:10,530 --> 00:21:11,444
No,
I really appreciate that.
471
00:21:11,574 --> 00:21:12,445
So I wish you all the best.
472
00:21:12,575 --> 00:21:13,924
Wish you all the best,
my son.
473
00:21:14,011 --> 00:21:15,709
Stay in touch.
We'll be watching you closely.
474
00:21:15,796 --> 00:21:17,711
Nice one.
Take it easy.
475
00:21:17,798 --> 00:21:19,452
The best.
476
00:21:19,582 --> 00:21:21,149
Make sure you do it.
477
00:21:21,236 --> 00:21:22,716
I'm going to try.
- You take care.
478
00:21:22,890 --> 00:21:24,370
I will.
479
00:21:24,457 --> 00:21:26,241
Do not take that smile
off your face.
480
00:21:26,372 --> 00:21:27,590
I'll try my best.
481
00:21:29,375 --> 00:21:29,853
See you later, guys.
- I know you're off.
482
00:21:29,940 --> 00:21:31,159
All the best, too.
483
00:21:33,248 --> 00:21:34,293
He's going to his car.
484
00:21:34,380 --> 00:21:36,033
Yeah, it's mixed emotions.
485
00:21:36,207 --> 00:21:36,860
Obviously excited to go home,
see all my friends,
486
00:21:36,947 --> 00:21:38,688
and play football.
487
00:21:38,819 --> 00:21:40,037
But obviously, I'm going
to miss Giles, Frenchie,
488
00:21:40,168 --> 00:21:42,039
living with them,
winding people up.
489
00:21:42,170 --> 00:21:43,258
And the staff and the players.
490
00:21:43,389 --> 00:21:44,477
They're a good group
of people here,
491
00:21:44,607 --> 00:21:46,261
and it's just a shame
I can't be a part
492
00:21:46,435 --> 00:21:47,610
of getting them promoted now.
493
00:21:47,784 --> 00:21:49,264
But I've got to
be a bit selfish
494
00:21:49,395 --> 00:21:50,178
and think of me,
to be honest with you,
495
00:21:50,352 --> 00:21:52,180
so that's the plan.
496
00:21:53,747 --> 00:21:55,314
I'm going to miss you, too.
Good luck, mate.
497
00:21:55,401 --> 00:21:57,272
All right.
498
00:21:57,403 --> 00:21:58,491
We're going to just watch you
drive off into the sunset.
499
00:21:58,621 --> 00:22:00,188
Yeah? Cool. Cheers, guys.
See you later.
500
00:22:00,319 --> 00:22:02,843
See ya.
