I love the episode and have absolutely no issue with the Notts love in. The Notts play off run was one of the most dramatic bits of football I have ever watched as a neutral and there were so many stories to tell (the last minute equalisers, winners, Langstaff finally taking a penalty, subbing the loan keeper on) and Scott redemption penalty was utterly brilliant story telling. If anything they missed a lot out that deserves its own doc.

I agree that nothing will ever come close again to the sheer drama and stress of last season... I felt genuinely ill when ToC scored against Sheffield Utd to point I gave fella next to me my details in case I was about to have a heart attack as had full on wobbles and unlike rest of you when Mullin's second against Borehamwood went in I hardly celebrated and genuinely think I went into shock for last 20mins. But come on...

If we get promotion this year it will be fun if not EPIC but if we get back to Championship or even higher the place will go mad. We have an ever expanding fan base so can see how this might thin out the hardcores... but the advantage of the problem with capacity is good luck to anyone trying to get a seat but the best thing about the parade was how many people were there how had obviously never been to a game.

I can remember one Indian family (actually Indian not just Welsh asian) wearing red t-shirts with their young children and a load of Polish lads on the cans just partying because they are Wrexham people and wanted to be part of it. Multiply that as we climb the league and potential for bigger celebrations in future as we suck in more and more fans is so exciting

A brilliant ending as well. They really captured the feelings well. I also liked the Notts C bit, they were a huge part of what made the season special and deserved a bit of the limelight.

Bring on season 3. Hopefully ending on a similar high.

Just watched it all for the first time this week (didn't want to be waiting a week at a time for new eps). This echos my thoughts entirely, but selfishly I'd have liked that last ep to have been twice as long.

Lovely piece on Paul ‘Magic’ Davies by the Leader - https://www.leaderlive.co.uk/news/23...rexham-finale/

Thought I'd save watching this until today, on what would have been my old man's birthday. As a result, I'm crying like a baby. What a day. What a season. What a club we've become.

It is magical isn’t it? Everyone has bawled their eyes out watching it.

I've watched it 4 times now and had tears in my eyes every time. Absolutely brilliant episode from start to finish.
Thought the Notts stuff only helped to put everything into context, how good they were and how good we had to be to top them.
So many emotions over the achievement, the players and their stories, fans and friends no longer with us, celebrating with my kids on the pitch. Just incredible.

That music at the end.....

Perfect.
