Wrexham is the Game II: The Revenge
This is Travis Kelce's favourite ever paid authored newsletter (according to sources)
ANDY: Steve Parkin is going to be the breakout character of season three isn't he?
I can imagine his BAFTAs acceptance speech now. Stephen Fry opens the envelope, Jeremy Irons hands over the award as Parkin stares into the camera and says: "Let's get that f**king award in the f**king skip! MAX, MAX you've let f**king Attenborough go, he's free at the back near the canopies, slide him!!!"
Yes, it's week two of Wrexham is the Game. Who wanted to start a weekly newsletter in the close season? (no, really...).
Luckily this is Wrexham and there's always something going on the and the doc is gathering pace. Got to love the fume that the women's team are getting a fair crack in sequence as Davey8983 on Twitter (picture of a Union Jack) says "disgusstin'. Shud be asshamed. Ruinned football. fumin'".
The Mia-Neil Roberts moments were great, but more of that later as we fully review the episode. We delve into the Nexaca 5% deal and ask 'is it a good idea?' as well as new feature ‘Behind Enemy Lines’ and Wrexham Fan of the Week.
Right, sales pitch (sorry). I know a lot of you have signed up to the free version of this, and with that you only get a portion of the content. However, we are running a introductory £15-a-year special for which you’ll get around 2,000 words each week and specials if something big happens (which it will) so it’s not a bad deal. After that it goes up to £40 a year which still is less than a quid an edition but is less of a good deal than above!
Below the pay line Tim reveals how to get rich (and quick) while I lift the lid on the 5 top strikers Wrexham will definitely buy (including Mbappe) AND the actual location of the Ark of the Covenant.*

Quotes of the Week: "Get the f*cking points in that skip!” - Steve Parkin. Lots of questions here. Can you put points in a skip? Why put them in a skip? Why is there a skip in the dressing room? Is it actually a skip? Do skipped points count in a league table?
Reason no 167 that Ch*ster are not sh*t (honest)
The mighty Flintshire club make a bold statement signing a lad from, er, Spennymoor. Of all the defenders in the league, he is certainly one of them. (Spotted by Joe LJ)
The burning question…
It may have gone under the radar to many rank-and-file fans. It wasn't announced by the club and hasn't been confirmed by any official channels.
But Ryan and Rob have given up 5% of the club - in an exchange for a similar stake in Mexican club Nexaca.
So the burning question here, is why?
