I'd actually say he was absolutly instrumental. Rob had ZERO interest in football and had it not been for Humphrey, I dont think he would have bothered taking an interest
I learned to love football when I lived in Chile for a couple years in my youth, but I hadn't learned anything there about the relegation system...it's just so smart and makes the WHOLE DAMN SEASON worth competing for. Some of the best games are for people trying to avoid relegation.
I remember seeing Humphrey in "Aeneas Faversham returns" at the Edinburgh fringe in 2006, to date, the live sketch stage show I've laughed hardest at to date. Him and Thom Tuck and David Reed, some of the funniest performers and writers out there. Pip pip for Humphrey Ker
Indeed. The Penny Dreadfulls doing radio shows of the French Revolution and Guy Fawkes are excellent and hopefully reach a wider audience following his Wrexham input.
As a Newcastle fan Sunderland til I die, it was pure comedy gold, especially the second series with a David Brent like character, it was a Shakespearean tale of tragedy, comedy and unrelenting love of the clubs fans of a club and team that had broken their hearts numerous times and continued to do so, taken away their hope, a dysfunctional and toxic relationship, managerial characters straight from the office and unrelenting tale of disappointment, betrayal, unrealistic optimism and a broken relationship, the girl your mother warned you about All real football fans can relate to it, for Newcastle fans who until 7th October last year had a devisive owner for 14 years, their for the grace of God go us. Essential viewing
Rob (indirectly) made NFL click for me with the Eagles Superbowl episodes of Sunny and seeing that they're the same drunken loutish fools as British football fans. What goes around comes around?
The National League isn't really non-league football. In order to compete for promotion out of the league, clubs have to spend. Wrexham has now been blessed with the resources to get out of the league, and no team in the league deserves it more. I consider non-league to be the National League North and South. The National League has too big of clubs in it to be non-league.
@@seanpaulluke Yes, but two teams in it were literally league clubs the previous season every year. The National League isn't non-league, it is the gateway to the football league. If you finish top of the table, your club is then in the football league. Non-league football also isn't a full time game. The National League North and South are the highest level a part-time club can hope to compete at.
To be clear, there have been clubs that HAVE done what you are accusing Wrexham of. The most notable being Salford. When the Class of 92 took over the club, it was playing three tiers lower than Wrexham. They then paid exorbitant wages to get League players to drop all of the way down. They turned the club from part-time to full time and gained quick successive promotions up into the National League. Once they were competing against fellow full timers, they hit a bit of a wall even with the highest wage bill in the National League. They failed to gain promotion their first season and only got promoted via the playoffs. They dominated the non-league tiers but had a real fight in the National League. That is because the National League, while technically being non-league, is also the lowest level of professional football. Therefore, it isn't really non-league.

Humphrey Kerr thank you for this wonderful gift
Doing something worthwhile for others and feeling pretty good about it. You can't beat that feeling of joy

Did he do a skit about a talking cloths iron in Edinburgh?
Maybe that was another show but he does look familiar.
Judging by the party yesterday R and R are doing something very good for the town and club. Kudos to them.

It’s great that Newcastle doesn’t have a divisive owner any more.
It's also pretty funny than Sunderland have been English champions more times than the Barcodes.
Love Humphrey xx
These vibes are gold!
Bit of a hero to me this guy...
I recommend Mythic Quest!
Robbie Savage has let himself goooo
Probably the best thing to happen in the UK since Castlemaine XXXX ❤❤❤
I hope he has a good chant at the racehorse. He was completely integral and what a hard job with his accent meeting those north walians on day one!
Rich, you've gotta invest in Cheddar F.C.
Then make a super low budget, stone-clearing style, documentary
It'd be far too cheesy
Ah it's Mr Megan 😀
cut that
You were summoned, you weren't summonsed; I doubt if even TV shows have that sort of power. 🙂
As a not so football fan, welcome to Wrexham as been incredibly interesting.
Also Ryan Reynolds is Canadian not American
For many of us Europeans, that is also American. I think we reference the continent.
@@cas9065 I’m English and I do not
@@samleejessop Many of us? Appreciate that you don't, though.
@@cas9065no American means USA when people say it, we’re not thinking of the whole continent lol
Ryan Reynolds holds US citizenship. He married an American woman. He voted in the 2020 presidential election. His first time voting in America.
Best thing for non league football, no doubt. It’s not all about the premier league and what Football means to the fans at all levels of play.
lol, it was me who got dan harmon's girlfriend to convince him to apologise to humphrey's wife
They'd never heard of soccerball?

What goes around comes around?
Dumbing down space travel and reusable rockets to 'just building a rocket to blast off into space for no reason' is a bit stupid to say the least
Wrong post!
Absolutely not
The second Bezo's space programme offers anything useful is the second Humphrey will take his statement back.
The truth hurts, uh?
Thanks for ruining football at non league

@@brianeleighton it is, by definition, non league.

Weird definition of "ruining" you got there.
