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?
