Thanks to the influence of two Hollywood stars, the idea of a small football club in Wrexham having a committed fanbase outside of north Wales doesn't seem overly far-fetched anymore.
But long before Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney had even heard of The Robins, a group of friends from Exeter University were already flying the flag for their neighbours, despite living more than 200 miles away. Alex Morrison and his friends started supporting Cefn Druids in 2002 after one of their results popped up on TV and ever since have made an annual pilgrimage to North Wales to cheer on the team, with some even travelling from as far as New Zealand to be there.
At the weekend, 20 years after their first visit to Cefn Mawr, they returned to watch their team beat Penrhyncoch 4-1 in the Cymru North League. With the coronavirus pandemic disrupting their tradition over the last two seasons, this year's visit was an opportunity to relive some of the fantastic memories they have of supporting the club, from dramatically escaping relegation to "once in a lifetime" European away days.
