Career
Bootlegger joined YouTube on 17 May 2008.[2] He is known for his matchday vlogs attending Wrexham football games and his drinking exploits.[3]
In 2020, he launched the Bootlegger 1974 Pilsner with brewer Wrexham Lager. However, in 2024 he claimed that the brewer owed him money.[4] Wrexham Lager later issued a statement saying that Bootlegger had been paid up to date before the vlogger's claim to the contrary.[5]
He released his autobiography in 2022, Bootlegger: The Good, The Bad and The Tasty.[6]
