No need was all Town talk

Interesting part re Cook and if if he’s with us next season 😵‍💫

I shall tune in later...
I live in Herts and our local radio (3CR) non league Monday Night programme (from Ollie Bayliss) also champions local music acts, as well as using more classic music tracks.... so I usually fast Forward those parts...

Out of contract at Shrewsbury this summer --- assuming he's on Mr Cook's 'trusted 'list then surely worth a conversation.Signing Lee Evans would be the major coup -- he's definitely on the 'trusted 'list.

I’ll wait for Ladbrokes and Bet365 to open markets. Don’t think we will get any shorter any time soon.

9/1 bet365

all we are saying, is give us ...a goal, or 2+

Had major injury issues so could be a bit of a gamble.

We're on our way

A good listen.

Good point --- and one for the medics.But assuming he demonstrates full match fitness at Portsmouth we would have a perfect mix of Jones and Banks in defensive midfield.

That one feels a bit too much of a stretch

Plenty of local games
Back in the League Cup
Don't have to qualify for the FA Cup anymore
Record ST sales incoming

Plenty to get excited about.

We have so much momentum and support behind us, I hope the club capitalise and invest so we can build on it and maintain the big crowds, feel good factors and general buzz around the town, not just the club.

On the pitch - we all know the areas we need to strengthen, and I trust Cook will be on with that already.

We have a good side - probably 3/4 additions needed in my opinion depending on our ambitions.

Bring it on - looking forward to renewing rivalries with Doncaster, Crewe, Bradford, Port Vale, etc rather than having to get stuck into battles with your Solihull, Bromley and Ebbsfleets of the world.

I'm being greedy but hoping some interesting Pre Season games - maybe even a tour somewhere outside of England!

Oh this year we're off to sunny Spain.

Makes me laugh when folk say League Two will be much tougher as if we don’t know how hard it is to win the Championship.

No other club has won the League Two Championship twice and no other club has won 4 Championships at Tier 4 of the main pyramid.

Sounds promising. Had heard we were weighing up Spain or Portgual/Austria

Had hoped for Portugal as I’m there in June. Bumped into Cook and the squad last time they were out there after our League 2 title.

We saw them in Benidorm the night after we'd beat Fleetwood to win the title. That was a lairy night. I'm trying to remember which of our players was that obnoxious he was close to getting a slap off one of our stag do party.
