    Rhys, Andy, Liam and Tim are happy. We’re over the moon as Wrexham AFC are in the play off positions after a truly stunning last-gasp win against Queen’s Park Rangers that left us all breathless.

    We examine how a lacklustre first half turned into a barnstorming second, we hail Josh Windass as the best sub performance ever and ask - is this best Wrexham away performance we’ve experienced? We got star spotting at Loftus Road and review the posh seats

    On top of that we look into the £47m share issue and what it may mean for the club and it’s valuation.

    And of course there’s the latest transfer news as we ask if the move Siriki Cherif is a smokescreen as well as hailing Wrexham Women’s latest win.

  • Episode 285 - James McClean's gesture and Wrexham AFC's big picture with Ian Herbert
    Jan 22 2026

    In this midweek Fearless podcast, we zoom out and tackle the big picture at Wrexham AFC, as well as James McClean's farewell and that gesture to the away fans.


    We’re joined by a man who’s literally written the book on Wrexham’s modern history. Ian Herbert, deputy chief sports writer at the Daily Mail, joins Andy and Liam to provide his insight on the wider forces shaping the club on and off the pitch.


    First, we react to the late sucker punch against Leicester, debate our preferred XIs and ask whether the atmosphere at the Cae Ras is becoming an issue (Liam has strong views). We preview QPR and run through the latest transfer talk, before Ian puts his business hat on to dissect the Kop funding row, the Apollo investment and whether he actually wants Wrexham to go up.

  • Episode 283 - Wrexham vs Norwich preview with Welsh football expert Iwan Roberts
    Jan 14 2026

    This time out Andy and Liam are joined by former Welsh international and BBC Feast of Football pundit Iwan Roberts to dive into his old club, Norwich. But first we reflect on the Nottingham Forest FA Cup win and if Wrexham should move for a top level Championship striker ready for a transfer.


    We look at Norwich’s problems this season and if they can overcome them, plus a deep dive into how he sees Phil Parkinson’s side developing - and what our ambitions should be. There’s even time for a few tales about Parkinson including when Iwan let him down and he was ‘blanked’ years later!


    We also explore the Ryan and Rob effect on North Wales as a whole with the Dyffryn Ardudwy native who played for Watford, Huddersfield, Leicester, Norwich and Wolves and was a cult figure wherever he went. But is he better than the 'best guest ever?' - find out!

    Jan 10 2026

    Join Tim, Liam and Andy as we rave about an unforgettable FA Cup upset for Wrexham after beating Premier League side Nottingham Forest on penalties under the lights at the Racecourse Ground.


    We discuss Arthur Okonkwo's heroic performance in goal and whether he's the best keeper we've seen. Where does that result rank in the pantheon of Wrexham's storied FA Cup history and who were the standout players?


    We also chat about transfers and do we really need many tweaks? PLUS who does everyone want in Monday's fourth round draw?

  • Episode 281 - Wrexham FA Cup preview with Nottingham Forest director Jonny Owen
    Jan 8 2026

    FA Cup fever has gripped North Wales and who better to talk about it with than an icon of the Welsh footballing scene. Tim and Andy are joined by famed documentary maker Jonny Owen who also happens to be a director of our Friday opponents Nottingham Forest.


    He tells us the story about exactly how that happened to a boy from Merthyr, plus covering Wrexham in his early days as a TV journalist. He regales us his fondness for Wrexham, his love of Welcome to Wrexham and a few fair brilliant stories - one involving a whale.


    He also gives us the inside scoop on Forest and how his actress wife Vicky McClure got a message from a certain Ryan Reynolds. We also take a look at the latest transfer rumours and Tim turns weatherman.

  • Episode 280 - Ram Raid
    Jan 4 2026

    Wrexham are rampant - and we’re here for it. Rhys, Tim, Liam and Andy discuss another brilliant win - Phil Parkinson’s fourth in a row. And we hail the Parky effect as we sit ninth - just one point off the play offs. We discuss how Parky’s done it and do we give him enough credit. We also hail Broadhead, Sam Smith and of course Matty James with THAT strike.

    We also look through the latest transfer news as we seemingly battle Crystal Palace for a player and we ask a simple question - can we go up again?

  • Episode 279 - Rathbone rampant as Wrexham brush Blackburn aside to climb Championship table
    Jan 1 2026

    Tim, Andy, and Liam are back to toast a perfect start to 2026 as the town marched into Ewood Park and left with all three points.


    It wasn't the New Year's Day team sheet many expected. The lads discuss the initial "pre-match panic" at a starting XI missing Josh Windass, Nathan Broadhead, and Kieffer Moore. Super Sam Smith got the nod, though, and didn't disappoint, getting us off the mark against Blackburn and proving he can lead the line in the Championship.


    Ollie Rathbone didn't just look the part - he owned the pitch. We break down that fantastic strike and a man of the match performance that has everyone talking.The January transfer rumour mill is ramping up with Harry Wilson linked with a highly unlikely move to Wrexham from Fulham.


    With the Reds sitting 8th in the live table immediately after the final whistle, is it time for the club to go "all in"? We also ask the big question of whether a Premier League push via the play-offs is actually realistic, or are we getting ahead of ourselves? Finally, can we make it four on the bounce against Derby this Sunday?
