How are you feeling ahead of League One? Nervous, excited?

The one thing Wrexham has going for it is all the hype and attention. The higher up you go in professional sports, the bigger the average player ego. Being on Wrexham will help players get sponsorships and is the perfect platform to get press and raise their value.

Hey Liam, just saw you on Episode one of the new season of Welcome to Wrexham, you've come a *long* way from where you started out mate, i'm proud of you!

Dude!!! You start fucking season 3!! You are officially a LEGEND

You made the doc!!! Congratulations!!!

Your face during Episode 1 of season 3. Lets go.

Dude!! You were shown on the opening episode!! Way to go!! Go Wrexham! From Oregon! lol

LIAM!!!! Right up front of S3 EP1!!!! Love it! Congrats! Congrats! Congrats!

I see you made it into the documentary! Congratulations young man!

Great video Liam! I think it might be a mistake to push for another promotion so soon. The economics really require the New Kop to be built and make sure the books are in order before the push is made to the Championship. Sad that these decisions can't be done on the pitch. I believe that Rob and Ryan are smart enough businessmen to ease back to keep Wrexham's success sustainable. A top half finish just out of the playoffs might be the best finish for the side.

Not everyone is going to be able to continue the journey with Wrexham into League One and beyond, but this group of players has done something special and I hope everyone appreciates that (including the players themselves!) I think Wrexham should aim to finish midtable next season and then fight for playoffs in 2026. A nice run in the FA Cup would be a bonus. No one should be expecting the team to win League One right away; there's simply too much competition. Great job as always Liam!

A top ten finish would be absolutely brilliant .. this coming season should be one of stability, financially and playing staff . Get the kop built and l can see an exciting future for Town .

Resigning Arthur, in goal, is the first step. He could be the keeper in Wrexham for the next 10 to 12 years. Howard, Tozer, and Young need to be signed to 2 year contracts. Getting 4 or 5 more Premier League academy graduates ages 21 to 24 who did not have a chance to play much at the premier league level should be the next step, stabilize the budget. Rob and Ryan appear to be wise spenders. They have excellent top quality management and administrative staff to advise them, especially when compared to other owners and teams. No team has ever done 3 promotions in a row in the EFL. The current squad could potentially challenge for a playoff spot. However, money needs to go to upgrade stadium capacity, championship level standards at least, and create training facilities similar to Sunderlands training facility. Remember, the level of fitness at those higher levels is much higher than the National League, League 2, or even League 1

Love your videos mate! And so do the Welcome to Wrexham crew, Ur famous mate!

Liam, you’re in season 3 episode 1 of the documentary!!

I see you are on series 3 episode 1 welcome to wrexham. congratulations :)

mid table for 2025-26 then look at promotion is my guess. Background finance needs to catch up. stadium renovations and practice facilities. To overcome the financial burden the club needs to sustain without the international flavour that will dwindle with time.

Hi from malaysia. My brother born in Wales, lovely country.

Wrexham need 5 players, 2 defenders, 2 midfielders, 1 quality striker. Looking for players out of contract in the championship would be a good start.

Bro! You made it on to the show!

keep up the great videos Liam!

I'm a scouser but I'll be behind you guys till you get to the prem. Good luck lads.

Liverpool fan here, love the story you fans are experiencing. Come get Danns off us for a season long loan, he’s a big strong striker with good potential. Where better to learn from a seasoned striker and learn how to deal with the pressure of the spotlight. Good luck for next season

Just seen you on Welcome to Wrexham. Well done young man 👍

I would like to think they will sign Aaron Hayden and Ben Tozer. but realistically, Ben is at the end of his career and Aaron's injury history might not allow him to stay. But Ben's long throw-ins would be missed if he is not re-signed.

hi Liam, first season in division 1 anything above halfway would be great. As for team upgrade, i would be looking one striker, 1 or 2 midfielders and sort out defence as we were caught out no end of times (BAD passing which quite a few where guilty). I think we will hold our own.

It’ll be interesting who we keep on those expiring contracts - it’s not just who we want to re-sign, it’s what other opportunities are out there in the transfer window. I think most fans know we’ve been a League One team in waiting; now it’s time to build a competitive League One team. I’m on board with your expectations - if we finish in the top half, I’ll be happy. Then we can build on that the following year.

To be honest we are either going to get automatic promotion or going to come 15 I can’t see us being anywhere inbetween

Keep up the good work lad

It'll be interesting to see how the release of S3 of the doco impacting Okonkwo's profile, socials, etc impacts his future decisions. He still hasn't really seen the exposure yet.

As West Ham fan, it's great to see Wrexham get back to back promotion. You probably renew Tozer's contract, maybe Hayden's contract, but he be more a squad player? Now the big question is, what is happening with your Kop stand, Rob and Ryan are not willing to pay the £25 million to build it, as they are Millionaires, not Billionaires. I think if Wrexham can finish mid table next season, that be good for Wrexham. Gives Parkinson time to sort out the squad ready for the Championship, maybe you could do an Ipswich Town In the Championship?

It feels like Okonkwo likes playing here. I hope he decides to stay and go for another promotion. But I also understand that he owes Wrexham nothing and if he gets offered a better opportunity, he should take it.

Wrexham is going to have to expand the Kop if they want to be able to make enough money to pay good players. But for now, they should definitely focus on the training facility. Then when the team makes it to the championship, that's when they should put more time and effort into expanding the kops.

Liam, spot on club goal: finish top half anything better is gravy on top!

Liam - you do a great job. I have seen so many articles & videos about possible transfer targets, what I never see is possible "loan" targets. As we have seen with Okonkwo, wouldn't this be a way to get player that we might not be able to get at full price?

Think Wrexham should contact championship teams even premier league teams about loaning there academy players, wrexham have an amazing atmosphere and a great project the game team will be beneficial for the players

If there are only going to be two offered extensions for their contracts, I would say Ben Tozer and Mark Howard.

Aiming for the Playoffs and maybe 2-3 years in League 1 keeping pushing knocking on the door! Luke Youngs last game on Saturday is my guess??? Just have a feeling?? We need Arthur to sign the dotted line??

Someone's famous now --- well done for making the documentary. Hollywood will be calling soon.

The team as it stands, would finish 14th...three godd signings could mean, top 7 finish. But if we don't get promoted we shouldn't be depressed by one or even two years in league one before pushing for the championship... Aim for the stars, but also remember who we were playing just 2 years ago...

I hope A.O. signs with Wrexham but the competition is going to be tough and can Wrexham afford him?

honest thoughts....I think we'll get low promotion battle but definitely top 10 football. All about the right transfers and tactics, so if we play 3 at the back for another season it just wouldn't work. Thus, 4-4-f*ckin 2 inbound from Parki 🤩

I could totally see players on loan from the Prem being willing to come to Wrexham. They’ll get media attention, and the team loaning them gets the benefit of having their developing players play under the pressure of all the cameras.

It would be likely we see Tozer and Howard resigned. Swap Howard with Tunnecliffe if he gets a coaching role which is very likely. I will be sad to see Luke no longer a part of Wrexham. Main priority however is signing Arthur and building/investing in young players as our avg age is quite high atm. Rebuilding the academy has to be a major priority this season as we get our footing in League 1 so we can develop talent for the future!

To be honest for me the goal should be getting the team up to par with the level, as you said letting go players that dont make the cut and welcoming new players that make the team stronger, if in the way wrexham manages to get the promotion cool, if not is ok as long as the team gets better, personally getting the team in the top ten of league one will be a great result

The reality is the economics will be the limiting factor. 1. While the $ from the EFL increases in League 1, the players they'll need to sign to continue going up will cost more than the EFL gives. So the $ needs to come from revenues. You could raise ticket prices, but the potential to out-price the ability of the Wrexham residents becomes an issue. 2. Given how old and outdated the stadium is, not just the Kop needs to be done but the entire stadium needs to be upgraded. To compete with some of the premier league teams, you'll need at least 50k capacity with luxury boxes to attract high-end fans. I don't even think that they have to ability to host that many people without massive congestion problems. Logistics becomes a huge factor. 3. Given the location and population of Wrexham , they would have to count on the surrounding areas to draw in fans to be self-sustaining (which is what Rob & Ryan want). Once the hype of the documentary goes away, can the consistently draw enough people to stay profitable? Mid-table next year would be realistic. I think they've outpaced the natural growth of the business and need a few years to be financially ready to move up. Going up and they getting demoted again would kill the momentum the team has generated

Our Liam's a star!!!

Ben Tozer - Yes, if he takes a pay cut (age) Aaron Hayden - Yes, but Only if Tozer signs else where (injuries) Jordan Tunnicliffe - No (age, fell out of favor) Callum McFadzean - No (age, fell out of favor) Luke Young - Sadly, No (Great Value BUT age) Mark Howard - Sadly, No (age) Rob Lainton - Maybe (injuries BUT Great Value)

The biggest challenge will be filling in the spots that need to be backfilled. Until we get a training ground, we will be looking up upper 20s age bracket. We need 2 more corner backs, a central holding midfielder and an eventual Palmer replacement. Dalby just doesn’t have it physically or mentally. We will resign Howard and possibly Hayden. Everyone else will move on. I can see tozer moving into a sideline role. AO will be smart to stay. Wrexham need to offer him an escape clause if we don’t go up to the championship within 2 years or if we get demoted. Fill it with incentives. I think we stand a good chance. Sadly, Saturday will be young’s last day on the pitch in a reds shirt.

Wrecks Em' Wrexham! Thanks for the great content again Liam.

Even with a few additions, a mid table finish would be nice...

Thoughts on these rumors of Langstaff joining from Notts?

I mean, Swansea City was promoted 3 straight years in 78-81, so it's possible , but more likely if we get mid table/top 10, that's a good year. Getting to the playoffs with even a 6th place finish would be miraculous.

Looking back with the benefit of hindsight, I wouldn't have been surprised if we kept Tozer at least, but no shocks with regards to the released list, even though I'm gutted for Young, Tozer and Lainton (& hope they absolutely excel at their next teams). I'm curious to hear your thoughts on Davies moving forward (& if he'd benefit more from a loan?) and the consequences of that and a lot of positions available in that area after the clean out... Are you going to be doing a video on what we can expect from the keepers in League One? I'm a huge novice so all I can do is look at stats and see who is out of contract etc, but if we miss out on Arthur, we should probably still spend some decent coin on a quality keeper... What do you think our chances are of stealing a top League One off our new competition (& making some new enemies with our big hollywood budget!) or even Championship level keeper that might have been underutilised somewhere?

Kemp from dons an option? Like to strengthen the midfield, besides ofc the defence

A finish in the top half a fine finish next season. Get the Kop rebuild and than a promotion in the following season

Not a Wrexham fan, but do love all levels of football. Great video

As a Real Madrid fan, I definitely can still appreciate the beauty in transforming wrexham into a desirable and top club. I understand some signings have to be made but I think next season would be the time to focus on stability and improving facilities rather than making a strong push for top players. All the best.

I’d settle for top 10 definitely. The League 2 sides are a tough prospect!

Wrexham look good for about 60-65 points in League 1 all other things being equal. So IMHO, it shouldn't take too much (still a fair bit) to challenge for the playoffs. My same analysis on the Championship suggests this team could just about stay in the division. There's quite a gulf in class.

I wondering now does team have a feeder program from younger youth farm team program? If not I hope they will in the future.

Thanks

Wrexham must be prepared to only be half way up the league next year. The harder you try the worse you do. Stay in the league not demotion.

I think the athletic reported they were training on Tues for the crew game, contrary to last year post clinching..

Now 4 leagues apart us 😂

Greetings from Miami. I have a question that maybe you should consider. Considering the expansion of the stadium that is allegedly in the works and the massive financial demands that getting promoted to championship brings, do you think it may even be better for the team to temper their ambitions and simply stay in league one to permit the time necessary for the expansion of the stadium? I ask because it would seem the transition may be easier after this expansion is done or near done.

Would be happy to be in the top third

Getting promoted to fast could actually hurt the team as well, the team has to catch up to the league standards and that takes time. No one wants to see a promotion then a relegation. 2 years middle ofnthe leage would be good for them.

Im not a soccer follower. Ive only looking at the infleunce of money and personalities to sports. A old time vs modern day!

As we add players, we need to target younger players that can develop with the team. Looking at transfermrkt, our average roster age is higher than teams like Ipswich, Chelsea, Bolton, etc. There are numerous interesting players worth targeting, some on expiring contracts, in their early/mid-20s, like Max Dean, Callum O'Hare, Peter Kioso, Will Evans. Much less enthused with players 30+, as we have that base. They may get you promoted, but may not be in their prime once we're up.

Hi Liam, I love your channel and have a different question. Would it make sense for Wrexham to just shut down the Racecourse for 2 years in a row, and rebuild the entire stadium into a 30000-35000 seat stadium all at once? Rather than construct one side at a time, just go for it. They would have to play somewhere, but isn't Goodison Park (capacity 40000) available with Everton on the move? As far as I can tell, it's around a one hour charter bus ride or special train from Wrexham to Liverpool. That would be a hardhship for the fans for a couple years. Understood. But if the end of the story is a spanking new renovated Racecourse with 30000 seats, and the club up in the Championship or Premier League, would it be worth it?

I will be happy with a top half finish. ProMotion year 2.

Hey Liam, I dont know if this is happening for everyone or not. but I have noticed some kind of major audio degrade on your voice to mic ratio. in the last couple videos. I checked it against my tv, phone, and ear buds. i gotta drop your max volume way down to hear clearly just a fyi. I thinks it feedback on the recording or sound bouncing around the room too much as of late?

First goal is not get relegated back to league 2, second would top 10, Cinderella story would be promoted to championship league❤❤

Hey Liam, you not vlogging anymore? Can’t see another video after this one?

I just hope Okonkwo will stay. We will see what happens soon.

Ok aside from Technical Issues, here is my thoughts on the matter comments section get ready to get angry lol. Arthur Okonkwo, I saw the report as well. he may get priced out of us keeping him on the team. If somehow he chose to stay with Wrexham and not take a big payday.. I mean my Goalie for Life!! I also want to talk about something that surfaced today again on my radar and that is Macaulay Langstaff. I understand his current contract, be massive money to get him. Yet I cannot help, but think about what a Mullin and Langstaff goal scoring machine that could become in training together. 27 goals and 24 goals combined and we still got the last game of the season this Saturday. Imagine that on the front line sheesh. look out league one lol. Obviously I want to keep all our current players and that will Not happen sadly. I am nervous and excited to see what is coming in the news, reports, the boys going back to las vegas and Cleworth is 21 now so thats amazing for him!!!

Personally don't think promotion should have anything to do with Phil's decision to renew or deny contract extensions for the players. They've shown they can compete with teams above them before and these boys have earned their promotion. It's absurd to expect a team to make so many transfers just to survive being promoted. Just because the player contracts running out gives management an opportunity to throw money at something to force the team into a better position doesnt mean they should. Surely more than just two renewals is all I'm thinking.

Will we see a new kit? If so when?

I think you are slightly overlooking the financial side of it. If you need to sign up league 1 or championship level players then you would have to oay those kind of salaries. I am not sure if you are in a financial stable situation to pull that this quick.

Is the transfer window like being a free agent in US sports?

fletcher and mcclean are out of contract too, right?

Got to sign McClean on a new 3 year deal. His social media presence and astute political observations are what Wrexham needs.

An Argentine in Wales

I predict Wrexham will finish 7 in League 1 first year, and promoted to Championship a year later when Rob & Ryan invest more money and decide that they really want the Club to make Championship! 🙏

Money on keeping Tozer, Young, and Howard. The rest I don't see holding onto.

Ben Tozer willl for sure get a new contract no?

I think the goal next season is beat Shrewsbury where ever they are and not be relegated. I think they can challenge for playoffs. .

2/3 years in league 1 please. Young and Tozer stay

Keep luke young! Lose the rest

Bring on L1

I am subscribed to you, but do not get uourr uploads?

Focus on doing the next thing well. The secret to winning the Super Bowl is never talk about winning the Super Bowl.

Mark Howard, Luke Young...just sayin'

First

Go Wrexham! and buy Bitcoin!

McClean and Tozer. The rest will be let go.

How many teams advance from league one

your keeper and back 4 need to go .....

all of You are setting the bar so low. why ???
