We’ve done it. Wrexham Woman are Adran champions and European football is coming back to the Racecourse. We go through an amazing win for Jenny Sugerman’s charges. The match has been a culmination of great work by Gemma Jones over a long period of time of time as she realises a dream. We have special mention for Lili Jones, Faye Knox and of course top goal scorer Katie Barker.There’s also the small matter of record-breaking Wrexham AFC accounts. Liam was one of a few journalists invited to the media briefing and he takes through the key points including a £33.33 million turnover, a 24% increase from the previous year. Losses have gone up to £14.84 million and the Kop will cost just shy of £70m. There are also payments to Rob and Ryan’s companies totalling nearly £4m - plus an amazing stat about where our revenue comes from.Oh and Wales lost, but let’s gloss over that…Photo credit: Wrexham AFC#wrexham #wrexhamafc #wxmafc #wrexhamfc #westbromwichalbion #wrexhamwomen #sheffieldunited #ryanrenolds #robmcelhenney #welcometowrexham #s4c Watch Maxine Hughes: Cancer At What Cost? here....https://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode...You can buy tickets for the FiD Live Night here: https://www.mghall.co.uk/events/fearl...Enjoy this Fat Boar-sponsored episode?

We’re back in the race. After a brilliant smash and grab against Sheffield United Rhys, Tim and Andy ask if that was the best win of the season. We examine just how Parky’s battered army managed to turn it around at Bramall Lane and what it means for the play-off picture. Rhys lays into our fans in an amazing, and slightly unhinged tirade, while we hail Sam Smith, Issa Kabore and George Thomason for their recent efforts.We also examine a brilliant win with a brilliant goal for Wrexham Women, calls up to the Welsh side and give the sad news of the passing of a well-known Wrexham fan.We look ahead to Wales’ crunch match and ask the question ‘what’ your biggest internal celebration’ Josh Windass style.#wrexham #wrexhamafc #wxmafc #wrexhamfc #watfordfc #hullcity #sheffieldunited #ryanrenolds #robmcelhenney You can buy tickets for the Live Night here: https://www.mghall.co.uk/events/fearl...Enjoy this Fat Boar-sponsored episode?

The battle for the play-offs is heating up as Wrexham have left the door open to the chasing pack. Andy, Tim and Liam discuss Tuesday’s loss to Watford and ask was it tiredness, or something more? Who is the most knackered out there and who do we really need back after the international break? But really, is everyone just overreacting and do we need to get real?We look at the referee’s performance, the race for the play offs and ask if we really had a good transfer window in the cold light of day. We also explore if there’s anyone we can bring in to bolster the squad or is it too late now.The lads also look ahead to the visit to Sheffield United, the proposed pre-season match with Manchester United and make a call to arms for the big women’s match at the Racecourse.------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Enjoy this Fat Boar-sponsored episode?
