Re: League 2 25/26

Looks as if Accie could struggle to be competitive next season.
If that materialises it would leave one relegation spot to be avoided.

Re: Released and Retained

JP has posted this team sheet of our L2 title winning team.

For me it shows the stark difference between our current mid table team and what's needed to be at the top.

If Bennett is a shining star next season I'll be pleased to have been proved wrong of course. Assuming we are really unlikely to keep Stubbs given we probably on...

They've had eight 1-1 draws this season, which must be higher than the average. Most of them came in the first 5 months of the season. They've also had another nine matches finish with 1 goal deciding it either way. Curiously, though, just two 0-0's. Gone a bit mad lately, though. A 4-0 win, a 0-5 ...

Re: Michael Flynn after win at Notts County

Apparently he has a pretty smart agent and when he signed for Bath he had a low release clause so it's pretty safe to assume likewise when he signed for us. So critising the board or Dof might be unfair. We've certainly had value from him and stand to make a tidy sum even after Bath have taken their...
