Not an Underdog Story
18 September 2023
This show is really well done and entertaining. It's great to see the behind the scenes of a small football club and to get to know the fans and players. I enjoyed the first season.

However I couldn't make it though the first episode of the second. To be clear, this is not an underdog Cinderella story that they are trying to market it as. If multimillionaires come in and take control of your club and out spend everyone else in the league, you are NOT an underdog. Now Americans are buying up all the gear and even visiting the club to "support" it? What a marketing scam.

There are many fan controlled clubs that do have amazing underdog stories. Check out Bundesliga clubs such as Union Berlin going from the 4th league to now playing in the Champions league, Heidenheim going from the the 5th to first league for the first time this year, or other inspirational stories such as Frieburg. These clubs deserve a docuseries, not the foreign investor owned and controlled Wrexham.
