There’s been a lot of soul searching in England after the Six Nations disaster continued with their first ever loss to Italy. But for the team sitting one below them in the table, the problems run even deeper.

Wales were ranked top in the world in 2019, but now they have only won 2 of their last 26 matches. It’s so bad financially that one of four professional clubs will be cut.

So how did it get to this stage? Has football stolen the limelight after the 2016 Euro success? And what do Wales need to get back to their former glory? Wales’ most capped captain, Sam Warburton, joins us.

Plus Gabby and Mark chat about Wrexham and the success of their Hollywood owners after they came so close to beating Chelsea in the FA Cup.
