Summary
"IT GOES DEEPER THAN FOOTBALL. IT'S PEOPLE'S LIVES." Those are the words of Wrexham midfielder and club legend Elliot Lee speaking on what makes Wrexham such a special place to play. And in the latest installment of This Week in Wrexham, Powered by SToK, Elliot sits down with Rog to deep dive into his incredible career journey to Wrexham AFC: starting from his childhood garden where he played with his father, Newcastle United great Rob Lee, to his career beginnings at West Ham and Luton Town, all the way to earning promotion with the Red Dragons in North Wales. Then, Elliot breaks down the surreal experience of meeting Will Ferrell in the team dressing room, plus how playing with Wrexham made his career dreams come true. All of this and more on This Week in Wrexham, Powered by SToK.
