Birmingham City backed to create docu-series that rivals 'Welcome to Wrexham' with NFL legend Tom Brady giving League One leaders 'wider appeal'

<p>Wrexham and Birmingham are rivals on the pitch this season in League One and could also be battling it out on the television front soon. The Blues are being backed to create a docu-series that could rival <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/news/welcome-to-wrexham-release-date-watch-ryan-reynolds-rob-mcelhenney-documentary-tv-series/blt588621d689775dae" target="_blank">Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney's famous 'Welcome to Wrexham' show</a> that has been such a hit. NFL legend <a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/tom-brady-saluted-razzmatazz-english-soccer-ryan-reynolds-rob-mcelhenney-only-concern-famous-investors-birmingham-city-wrexham-raised/blt2b3d6afa9e640134#cs417d3387a8f12c62" target="_blank">Tom Brady is a minority owner at Birmingham and his wide appeal</a> could make for popular viewing, according to football finance expert Dr. Rob Wilson.</p><p></p>

WHAT HAPPENED?

<p>Wilson told <a href="https://www.slingo.com/slingo/" target="_blank">Slingo</a>: "The broader media market has an appetite for these at home. We've probably talked about it with Luke Littler doing an ‘at home’ docu-series because Wrexham’s series has worked really well on that basis because they've had a story to tell.&nbsp;Burnley and Sunderland have done similar and you would say that Birmingham has a story. It's a big historical football club, Tom Brady being involved.&nbsp; It's got a wider appeal than just the club. But then you would say that for lots of other clubs. So it's about the value they could gain through that sort of series and whether it's material to the football club.&nbsp; It was material and has been material to Wrexham. I don't think you'd get the same benefit for Birmingham City – having said that an extra few million and an extra few million eyeballs on your football team is never a bad thing."</p>

WHAT HAS BEEN SAID

<p><a href="https://www.goal.com/en-gb/lists/tom-brady-message-rob-mcelhenney-birmingham-wrexham-david-beckham/bltfbafea6dbb649c8b" target="_blank">Brady has already boasted that his club's "dreams are bigger" than Wrexham's</a> after watching Birmingham down the Welsh side in League One earlier this season. The Midlands club are certainly in good shape currently and will be hoping to play Championship football next season. Brady's club sit top of League One, two points clear of Wycombe and eight ahead of Wrexham, with two games in hand on both sides.</p><p></p>

THE BIGGER PICTURE

<p>Wrexham are also bidding for promotion this season but have work to do to secure an automatic promotion spot, with only the top two teams going straight up. The Welsh side take on Crawley next in League One, while Birmingham face Rotherham.</p><p></p>
