We deliberately waited 48 hours for this one. Andy, Liam and Tim needed time to reflect, process and find some positives after Wrexham suffered an utter hammering from West Ham on Friday night.

• The West Ham Debacle: We launch a staunch defence of Phil Parkinson, though he certainly takes his share of the blame for the performance.
• Tactical Dissection: What actually went wrong? We break down the line-up surprises - including George Dobson's shock star - and try (but sometimes fail) to not single people out.
• Fixing It Against Southampton: We offer concrete solutions, pick our starting XI for the next match and discuss what the crowd needs to do to lift the squad out of this sticky patch.
• Wrexham Women & Legend News: Plus, celebrating a massive victory for Wrexham Women against arch-rivals Cardiff and discussing a big-time move for a bona fide club legend!

We break down the positives, including standout performances from Jacques Ekomie, Anthony Patterson and the peerless Callum Doyle - alongside the pressing negatives:

• Is the midfield too static?

We also discuss the appointment of new sporting director Steve Nickson and whether he can fix the balance in the next transfer window and what his priorities are.

Then, we turn our attention to West Ham. Geo from Hammer Chat joins us to cover:

• West Ham’s struggles on and off the pitch & a fascinating look at their ownership battle
• Their strengths and weaknesses following three wins in a row
• How Hammers fans really feel about manager Nuno and life at the London Stadium
