Fearless in Devotion

Phil Parkinson's Wrexham winning machine rolls on as Tim, Andy and Liam dissect nervy 2-1 win over Portsmouth which has cemented our place in the play-offs. We ask the big question: are we now looking above us rather than behind? We also dive deep into a massive Racecourse Ground rumour regarding the Chelsea match and potential stadium changes that could affect every supporter. (Note: This remains unconfirmed by the club, but we break down what it could mean if true!) Finally, we're joined by guest Callum to preview our trip to Charlton Athletic. We talk Nathan Jones' tactical setup and the how former Wrexham man Conor Coady is getting on at the Valley. Enjoy this Fat Boar-sponsored episode?

What a weekend for Wrexham AFC. Not only did the men pull off one of their greatest results since the takeover - the women’s side snared their first bit of silverware. Tim, Andy and Rhys are ecstatic as they look at both amazing victories. As well as reflecting on Jenny Sugarman’s history makers we ask: was that Lewis O’Brien’s AND George Thomason’s best game for Wrexham and how much credit must go to Parky for moulding ANOTHER promotion hunting team? We also look at a near assault on one our players, ask if Ben Sheaf really is out for the season and what do we think about our chances against Portsmouth. There’s a LOT to get in, so strap in...

This is a big one. Wrexham have drawn Chelsea in the FA Cup — and once again the eyes of the football world are on the Red Dragons. Andy, Liam and special guest Simon Cooke react to the blockbuster tie, exploring the surprising connections between Wrexham and the West London giants. They look at why Phil Parkinson seems to have a cup hoodoo over Chelsea, revisit previous pre-season “friendlies” between the sides, and ask whether this draw feels written in the stars. The episode also covers Wrexham’s FA Cup victory over Ipswich Town and previews the upcoming league clashes with Bristol City — and Ipswich (again). ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Enjoy this Fat Boar-sponsored episode?

This is a big one. Andy, Tim and Liam sit down with Wrexham non-executive director Shaun Harvey for an in-depth look at the Red Dragons’ January transfer window. He reveals the strategy, how close the club came to landing some major names and the inside story behind the three deals that did get over the line. Harvey also reflects on five years under Ryan Reynolds and Rob Mac's ownership, sharing behind-the-scenes insight into how the ownership model works - plus a few brilliant stories along the way. To round things off, he gives his verdict on Wrexham's season: what it'll take to go up, the key challenges ahead and his wider hopes and concerns for the game. An unmissable listen for Wrexham fans - and anyone curious about how modern football clubs really operate behind the scenes. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Enjoy this Fat Boar-sponsored episode?

Well, you can’t win them all and Rhys, Liam and Andy are on hand to dissect the Millwall defeat. Did they out-Wrexham us, was Max really to blame for the opener and are injuries going to cost us? Dr Rhys is on hand to help us on that last one. We also discuss Millwall fans being a little fighty in a throwback to the bad old days. Then we dive headlong into a thorny issue. The remarks from Elliot Lee and Paul Mullin that seemingly call out Phil Parkinson and his treatment of them. Who is in the right? We all have our say - especially after Ryan and Rob said this week that Parky has a 'job for life.' There’s also big news for Wrexham Women and we discuss what it means.

It’s done. In fact, you could say it’s Keillor-Dunn. Liam, Andy and Tim rate and slate Wrexham's transfer window as it slams shut with THREE new recruits arriving at the Racecourse Ground. We break down the signings of Zak Vyner from Bristol City, Davis Keillor-Dunn from Barnsley and Bailey Cadamarteri from Sheffield Wednesday. We also look at how they fit into the squad and then name our first choice starting XI. We also talk about the ones that got away - we’re looking at you, right wing-backs - and some emotional goodbyes. Ryan Hardie, Harry Ashfield, Jacob Mendy, Mo Faal and (sob) Elliot Lee have departed - and we might only ever see one of them in a Wrexham shirt again. So we give a heartfelt farewell to the “White Pelé,” a player who gave us so many moments we won’t forget. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Enjoy this Fat Boar-sponsored episode?

Tim, Andy, Liam and Rhys pore through another away - our fourth in a row - at Sheffield Wednesday and ask if we’re cementing ourselves in the play-offs. We also ask who is our preferred striker, Keiffer Moore or Sam Smith, what a day out in Sheffield is like and is that the best goalie clearance we can remember? We then go head long into transfers, with all the latest names linked which we rate and slate including Zak Vyner. We also say goodbye to the likes of Paul Mullin, Andy Cannon and to a lesser degree, Conor Coady. There’s also time to talk about Wrexham Women, James McClean’s big return to Irish football and we ask you to clap for little Rupert. We’ll have a transfer special tomorrow as well….

Andy and Liam are joined by two special guests for this midweek FiD episode as we preview Saturday’s big game at Sheffield Wednesday. First we look at that match with Mirror Sports editor and Wednesday fan James Whaling. He takes us through the whole horrible saga and explains it for the layman with echoes of what happened to us. But there is hope as the Owls enter administration. He also tells us more about Josh Windass’ ‘celebrations’ before we delve into the transfer latest. Look away James, one of the names is Wednesday’s Yan Valery. Then we look at Wrexham’s finances with Price of Football host and expert Kieran Maguire. He goes through the latest cash injection, Apollo share issue and examines the positives and negatives as Wrexham go massive. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Enjoy this Fat Boar-sponsored episode?

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. Enjoy this Fat Boar-sponsored episode?

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. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Enjoy this Fat Boar-sponsored episode?

Well, you can't win them all. Wrexham's five-match winning run is over and Andy, Rhys, Liam and guest Barry Jones pick through the loss to Norwich. We hail Arthur, but lament some poor performances - especially in the second period. We also pose a few questions including should Keiffer Moore start against Leicester and does Josh Windass fit in? There's also big news with a goodbye to a legend in James McClean but we're glad we're holding on to another in Max Cleworth. There's celeb guest, big transfer news and the Kop latest with the man man who knows all about it, WST chairman Barry. We look at Wrexham Women's 6-0 cup win and preview Leicester. Phew.

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! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Enjoy this Fat Boar-sponsored episode?

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? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Enjoy this Fat Boar-sponsored episode?

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. PS.

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? PS.

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? ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Enjoy this Fat Boar-sponsored episode?

Rhys, Liam, Andy and Tim are back to unpack two huge wins for Wrexham over the festive period that have fans daring to dream of a play-off push once again. We react to a battling 2-1 home victory over Preston - a performance full of grit and quality, but one overshadowed by an injury to top scorer Kieffer Moore. Do Wrexham need cover in January? There’s also praise for club-record signing Nathan Broadhead, who looks to be finding his best form at just the right time. Attention then turns to Boxing Day’s astonishing 5–3 comeback win over Sheffield United - a chaotic, thrilling classic that showcased Wrexham at their fearless best, including an outstanding display from George Thomason at left wing-back. Finally, with speculation growing, the lads debate what the future might hold for Paul Mullin as talk intensifies around a possible return from his loan spell at Wigan Athletic. All that - and plenty more - on this week’s Fearless in Devotion. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Enjoy this Fat Boar-sponsored episode?

Join Rhys, Tim and Liam as we discuss Wrexham’s disheartening Welsh derby defeat at Swansea. In our latest episode we question whether the knives are being sharpened for Phil Parkinson after a poor display, if Arthur Okonkwo deserves some slack after his calamitous mistake and what did Swansea local Rhys make of it all. We also look ahead to the mouth-watering Boxing Day clash against Sheffield United at the Racecourse as Tim reveals some harsh comments from Blades fans which will have Kieffer Moore revved up to prove his doubters wrong. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Enjoy this Fat Boar-sponsored episode?

Join Tim and Liam as we look ahead to Wrexham's eagerly awaited away trip to Swansea for an all-Welsh Championship clash. Our guest for this midweek episode is Luke from Swanscast, who gives us the lowdown on what's been a difficult season for the Swans so far and what to expect from Vitor Matos's team on Friday night. Plus we reflect on the weekend's 2-2 draw at home against Watford and why the body language of some Wrexham players left us feeling frustrated. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Enjoy this Fat Boar-sponsored episode?
