Are you sitting comfortably? Then we will begin. A run down of the Valentine's day massacre as the Iron ship 6 goals to the Pilgrims, losing the Lincolnshire derby 6-3 at home to Boston. Perspective needed though as it's a blip after a brilliant run from the boys.

Great to have Ben Maidment on again as we look back at the last 10 games as we hit 30 up for the season! Some stand out performances to remind us it is not all doom and gloom!

Our spy in the camp this week is Char from more podcasts than we care to mention!

This week's show is hosted by Barra with appearances from regular panelists Max Bell and Marco Puliga and a special guest panelist appearance from Voice of the fans representative Eloise Nichols as we dive into the cupset defeat at the hands of Step 2 opposition Horsham, as the Iron are dumped out of the FA Trophy. The pitch gets a mention along with the disappointing performance. But all is not lost, as focus turns to the league as we continue to chase back to back promotions. Don't panic! It's still 50 up for Butler: You can read Ollie Wolley's interview here - https://theironhourpodcast.substack.com/p/50-wins-and-counting-butler-breaks

Our spy in the camp this week is Musical Shrimper Ollie Davies who breaks down Southend's recent performances, tactics and league positioning. Whilst the Iron may have shifted focus entirely to the league, the same can't be said for Southend who will face Horsham in the 1.4 final of the FA Trophy. We look back at the off field issues which have been a thorn in the side of the Shrimpers until very recently.

Our panel look ahead to that upcoming fixture and give their score predications as sponsored by the Unity Group!

John Dalby is our guest this week as we preview the FA trophy fixture against Horsham!

We discuss THAT performance and victory away at Boreham Wood... WOW... just WOW! That first half was arguably Andy Butler's best as manager. Stand out performances from a few players, give the episode a listen to see who gets their flowers!

Spy in the camp is back and we speak with Gloucestershire Live's Forest Green reporter Rhys Anderson who talks us through the season so far, gives us the stand out performers and explains what life is like supporting the greenest club in the land.

We send our very best wishes to Gareth's Father and wish him a speedy recovery.

This week we have a look back at the trip to Morecambe and that disappointing late equaliser. But it certainly isn't all doom and gloom as the Iron secure 50 points for the season so that is target achieved with 3 months to spare! Joe Rowley gets a special mention for his goal and overall performance.

Connor Smith won't be making his 2nd debut for the Iron on Tuesday evening due to a sickness bug (and we still await International clearance) but we caught up with Brandon, the interim chair of the Accies Supporters Trust who gives us a run down of the events in Lanarkshire that lead to Smudge returning to Iron. He explains his role so far this season doing an unfamiliar job in that 6 position.

Looking ahead to Tuesday's trip to Meadow Park, Boreham Wood and Non league paper reporter Brett Lewis gives us his thoughts ahead of the fixture and Iron Hour panelists Iron Army and Max Bell give their thoughts as well as their score line predictions.

WHAT A WEEK! And the football seems secondary.

First of all, everyone at the Iron Hour podcast sends our best wishes to the family and friends of both Jamie Shipstone and Ian Grant who both tragically passed away very recently. As always, the Iron community stands with you.

We talk about it all! There was THAT interview with Michelle Harness on BBC Radio Humberside which we unpack, dissect and digest. We sense a change in mood and tone from the owners, it looks like we are going all in and having a go at promotion. Do you see it the same?

We look at the comprehensive squad update given by Andy Butler this week and discuss what consequences that could have on starting lineup.

But before all of that, we discuss and share our great excitement over the recent addition of Connor Smith. The prodigal son has returned!

Spy in the camp returns with DAZN commentator and Morecambe journalist Dave Salmon who gives us a terrific insight into the Shrimps.

All that, and so much more on this latest episode of the Iron Hour podcast. As always, a thank you to talkSPORT:Fan Network and our sponsors Best Blanks Wholesale, Hole in the wand, AC Videography and Photography and Know Film!

Any chance of a game of football breaking out?

The big freeze takes effect across the nation and the Iron are not immune as the scheduled league fixture against Sutton was postponed last Saturday and we ask will the FA Trophy fixture at home against Clitheore on Staurday 10th January be postponed too? (Here's hoping not)

So much on the agenda this week:

-Transfer ins and outs as Butler shuffles his pack. TSF is recalled, Westbrooke extends and so much more

-We answer the questions from the fans

-Spy in the camp returns and we talk with vlogging sensation and Clitheroe FC fan Robbie Holmes

-We look ahead to the FA trophy fixture and give our predictions as sponsored by the Unity group

-FPL Update

Happy new year to all of our listeners from everyone at the Iron Hour podcast.

As 2026 begins, we draw to a close a very successful season for the Iron with an unprecedented 95 points accumulated. On this week's episode Max and Barra discuss the player speculation with movement possible both inward and outward. Plenty of talk over whether Tyrell Sellars-Fleming will decide to stay and can we keep Oli Ewing?

As Andy Butler continues his contract negotiations with the club, we discuss how important he has been.

A shoutout to the Voice of the Fans group who will be in a hut before kick off on Saturday taking questions and engaging in fan discussions, so make sure you pop down.

A look back at the 2-0 job done over Gateshead on Tuesday night. Yes, it wasn't a classic but we never looked in serious trouble.

The spy in the camp segment returns with Johnnie Lowrey, regular guest from Sutton United talktime on podcast and Published author. He gives his opinions on their season so far and explains where it has all gone wrong but remains positive of survival this season.

Back to the regular pod and we look ahead to that very game against Sutton, giving our predictions as sponsored by the Unity Group.

A quick chat regarding Michelle's new year statement and a call to arms for volunteers to help with the ground covers.

Here is hoping 2026 is a cracker for you and for the Iron.
