Looks like the form is evening out now. Was probably unlikely to challenge for the playoffs in the first season though we're not completely out of it it feels though it's a sticky spell that will cost us.
The bookies gave us no chance of getting a result here and, despite...
February 19
Not the best of months and, as we keep up the tradition of taking cup games to replays, our squad is knackered. Should clear up now as we only have the league to focus on now.
A very credible result against Premiership opposition. Clucas twice put Swansea in front but goals...
January 19
Well and truly back on form!
We bounce back from a 4-1 defeat with a 4-1 win! The visitors are stranded at the bottom of the league and, despite going a goal down, it was a much-welcomed, comfortable victory. Lowery, an OG, Reilly and a late free kick from left back Donohue gave...
A hectic schedule sees our knackered squad struggle. 4 defeats in 6 in the league though I make it into the next round for two cups.
The month starts well at Fleetwood with the home side showing their charitable side by gifting me 2 penalties. James Jones converts both and Reilly gets the...

Ryan Wintle has really taken advantage of his run in the team since the game against Liverpool u23's. Another goal and assist in this match and he's been our best player this season. He wasn't even really in consideration for a starting spot at the start of the season. Lowery...

An amazing month! We really should have a 100% league record this month. Soundly beaten in the Checkatrade trophy but no-one cares about that! We shoot right up the table and...

We faced 2nd placed Colchester at the Alexandra Stadium. Colchester...
Cheers Neavie, here's hoping!
September 18
Decent month, still without a win away from home though. Hoping to rectify that soon.
Our first game of the month was a lucky escape as we couldn't really cope with Northampton for much of the match. Could have sneaked it at the end but we're...
August 18
I thought results/performances were pretty decent until the last match which was a bogging performance. Still, we played two of the recently relegated teams away from home and MK Dons who are fancied to be challenging for promotion.
Opening day of the season and it's a tough...
I let Bakayogo (started last season as first choice left back), Porter and Dagnall (the two who started last season as the top two strikers) go as they were regressing, had lost their places and weren't earning their comparatively big wages.
Transfers in (before the first game of the season...
Transfers
Premiership sides throwing the cash about.
The big pre-arranged deals for M'bappe, Keita and Vinicius go through. Guedes is the other massive transfer, moving to Bayern from PSG.
My team of the year, pretty unsurprising.
5 players in the League 2 team of the year. Only surprise is Nolan at right back who had a mare towards the end of the season and is, hopefully, going to have to settle for a backup spot next season.
Manager of the year!
This is how the players...
Round the leagues
At. Madrid cause a shock by winning La Liga. Juve win Serie A again though it was tight. Can't see it on the screen unfortunately but Bayern win the Bundesliga by 5 points. Parent club Liverpool win the Premiership by a point!
In League 1 Blackburn, Scunthorpe and Rotherham...
End of Season
First game in the run in is at bottom placed rivals Port Vale who are fighting desperately for survival. A rare start for youngster Owen Dale due to injuries saw a man of the match performance as he scored a screamer, right into the top corner from outside the box. All we need...
March 18
Home wins and away draws. Only played 4 games this month due to a game being called off because of international call ups. Could have done without this as we now have a hectic schedule against teams at the top, not feeling confident going into the run-in. Lost a few players to...
