    I’ll take full credit.... Although I don’t know how sw88 does it every game - it’s hard work!!

    He inferred if players go then they have plans in place.

    Someone mentioned him but MR laughed it off and said we can’t afford him.

    I think he was positive but pragmatic i.e. if a higher level clubs meets our high valuation and he wants to progress his career we won’t stop him. Which to be fair is true of any lower league player. It was good to hear we’ve offered a deal and MR has told him how he feels about him and what...

    My interpretation; he wants to stay, we want him to stay, we’re doing all we can but if a big offers comes in from a championship club we wouldn’t stand in his way. Bayliss sounds all good, unless he gets his head turned.

    MR: Three bids for McNulty, all way short. Board have backed him. We’ve offered him a new contract. We want him to stay. He knows what MR thinks of him. Reading have gone away. But all players want to play at higher level. Baylis wants to stay and sign a new contract. Unsurprisingly, both got...

    Never. Although We’re signing Mess after the WC.

    MR: Got to work on throw ins. Don’t understand why players get it wrong. Happy with support from board and Dave Boddy has done fantastic. Will make improvements to training ground. Wants more support as it all goes to him. Have to move forward together. Feel good factor atm. Getting better...

    MR: Won’t get Maddison money. Budget has gone up, as promotion bonuses and new players with higher wages as better calibre. Not singing anyone playing at WC. Can’t remember much of play off final night. Got real talented players. All very hungry. Allesanni looks phenomenal. Sterling is...

    MR: Expectations are to go for it. We’re excited and looking forward to it. There are different ways to win games. Can’t always be gung ho. We will move forward with players we have.

    MR: Still looking for a striker (not because anyone is leaving) Another LB already agreed terms and is coming in to train. Jones not ready till September.

    I reckon Doyle, Shipley and Stokes or Willis. Potentially a keeper too? It would be good if some of the “bigger” players were here.

    No we ate in a different room. The tables are here so the ‘eaters’ get the better seats at the fronts. So no staring this year, thankfully!

    I don’t think it will be as we are being moved to a different hall once the food has been finished. Good to see they have learnt from last year. Also, on the lager/beer debate, they are serving Purity behind the bar, so it’s all good.

    In and the ‘free drink’ is limited to red/white wine or a Heineken - disappointing. There are 11 tables set out with 10 settings on each for those eating beforehand. So far there’s about 20 people here...

    Everyone is currently standing outside as we aren’t allowed in until 6:45, despite them advising to be early #SISUOUT

    The dress code for tonight is ‘smart casual’, but I really want to wear shorts. Anyone else doing the same?
