00:00now rexham are closing in on a third successive promotion a feat that would
00:06mark one of the most remarkable stories in recent efl history from a dramatic title race in the
00:12national league to securing promotion last season his campaign has delivered more huge moments late
00:17winners dominant home displays and bigger way results to keep that momentum alive rexham's rise
00:24hasn't just been about the owners it's about belief smart recruitment and a squad full of
00:29character the atmosphere at the club has never been stronger and with each victory the dream of
00:33back-to-back-to-back promotions edges closer to reality
00:37yeah and what do you feel were the biggest moments if we look back on rexham's season in terms of
00:45you know those maybe last minute winners they obviously went on a streak of scoring so many
00:49added time winners and you know players come off the bench making an impact is there any pinpoint
00:55moments is there any moments where you maybe thought the tables were turning in rexham's
00:59favor or um you know you look back and think yeah that was a real key moment in rexham's push this
01:05season i think you know what the weekend has just been again has has really given fans optimism once
01:12more and you look back to the the victory away at wickham earlier in the year where it felt like it
01:17was only wickham or rexham who would get second place in the league rexham went in there 1-1-0 sam
01:21smith scored a good goal you know there was an incident in the crowds where there was a medical
01:26emergency the game had been stopped for about half an hour rexham came out got the winner
01:29really felt like it shifted them rexham were in control in the ascendancy there's been lots of twists
01:36and turns but if you have to actually look and pinpoint the moment maybe it's a draw maybe it's that
01:42home draw against birmingham because everyone was told birmingham city are the best best team
01:46in the league by a country mile that's obviously turned out to be true the champions already they
01:50they got to a wembley final which they lost and birmingham have almost been irrelevant because
01:54they've been so far and away the better team but rexham had had them at the race course they drew
01:59one all but for the last half an hour 40 minutes they were on top of birmingham they should have won
02:04that game and it was the fact that you know rexham had been comfortably beaten when they went to
02:08saint andrews but in on their home turf they were more than a match for for them and that did feel
02:13like a monumental point really you know it felt like a performance that really proved that rexham aren't just
02:18these plucky underdogs they're not that far off the the top team in the league who've who have spent
02:22a hell of a lot more money than them so i think that was one of the performances where you really
02:26did believe that that they've got something about them this rexham team it was a week after they'd
02:31lost to lost the derby to shrewsbury as well fierce rivals and they responded it responded in style i think
02:36from that moment there was then that inner belief that they can they can still produce those big
02:41performances against the better teams in division and for me that that probably was the the turning
02:45point where you felt okay if they can do that against birmingham at home they can beat anyone
02:49yeah we've mentioned um the sort of competitive nature of of all the the english leagues now and
02:56wrecks them so close to the championship let's just look ahead if they are to go up um you know
03:01we've mentioned before how you know the squad might need to change there could be wholesale changes this
03:06summer they'll need to break um you know transfer records and really um sort of look ahead to how
03:12they're going to cope in the division obviously the relegation battle in in the championship this
03:16season has been incredibly tight i mean it will go to the final day you feel um for xmr to go up
03:22how do you feel they navigate the championship it's such a massive golf in class you know it's probably
03:28one of the biggest in in europe in terms of the step up from league one to championship football
03:33um are you confident how do you it's a complete whirlwind to go into it's complete
03:38uh mystery at the moment as to how they will navigate but i'm sure that the pitching will
03:43become clearer you know as the summer goes on yeah i you know obviously don't get too carried away
03:48yeah a lot could still go wrong i'm very scarred and pessimistic as a rexham fan by my nature but
03:54you know if they were to get there to the championship it would be the the biggest jump
03:57really imaginable for for the club because your championship to premier league is huge we've seen
04:02that with the teams who've gone up and gone down you know recently in back-to-back seasons
04:06but there's been so many teams as well who have yo-yoed between league one and the championship
04:10and they're very good teams with good managers and some very good players and even if you look
04:14at the rexham squad now some of rexham's better players are the likes of rathbone who were released
04:19from championship clubs george dobson they were released and allowed to to come to to rexham so
04:25there's a reason they maybe weren't deemed championship quality in the first first place if you're looking
04:30like raw individual talent it would need a massive overhaul this summer they need
04:36younger players maybe fitter players a bit more about them they maybe couldn't play
04:40the same style of football for as long as they have to
