Closer to home for him, but would have thought he'd be looking at a bigger club if I'm being honest. He enjoyed his time here and was open to staying if we gave him a big new contract, but big contracts is something we don't really give out so we didn't bother in offering him anything at all...

Would be a massive shock here if that happened. He's the star boy here.

Ryan Bennett's new contract confirmed by the club. Definitely strengthens the defence, probably the strongest centre back in the team. Think you're definitely right about the problems last season. The squad was imbalanced, lacked depth, and we had failed to replace key players who had left...

Of the 5 who were offered new contracts. Bennett - signed in January and played a crucial part in keeping us up. Dunk - arguably the best servant the club has had this century, scored a goal in each of our last 3 wins to keep us up. Club legend. Digby - is our first choice midfielder and...

The relegation battle should be incredibly tense once again. Half the league look like they could be in the free-for-all scrap at the bottom. Not sure I'll bother making any predictions until teams are all abit more organised and settled with recruitment.

Jevani was great for us. He was probably our best player and our only really creative one and we would have been in serious trouble if it wasn't for his goals and assists. He would go missing at times but then part of that was down to having a shit team around him and poor tactics. He was very...

Just officially announced the signing of Stevens. Vale fans have made it abundantly clear that he was shit for them. I'm hoping he was a bit better at Oxford, otherwise looks like it's a poor start to our summer rebuild.

Yep and the fact we still haven't announced Digby staying is a concern.

Will Norris was outstanding for us, but sitting in the stands at Wolves and then Burnley really hasn't helped him. Whenever I see him now he doesn't quite seem like the player we all thought he was destined to be. Sabotaged Pish's promotion hopes though so he's a good lad. Hope he signs for...

Apparently its: 1. Dean Lewington, Milton Keynes Dons 1 July 2002 2. Seamus Coleman, Everton 1 January 2009 3. Lewis Dunk, Brighton & Hove Albion 1 July 2010 3. Liam Palmer, Sheffield Wednesday 1 July 2010 5. Harry Kane, Tottenham Hotspur 1 January 2011 6. David de Gea, Manchester United 1 July...

Joey was a big part of our squad the last 3 years. The first two seasons he was excellent, but he was found out this season in League 1 and it was clear that he needed a drop down a level to find that form again. He'll take a beating if it benefits the team, he played during our promotion...

Can both parties not be at fault? EFL could handle certain things about club ownership and financial stuff better, once in charge owners could also be more responsible. The impatience of fans and their hunger for success doesn't help, however they don't have any real power in the decision making...

George Thomas has decided to stay and sign a new 2 year contract. Hasn't had much luck in recent years, but he's got the pedigree to be an important player for us. He got a very important goal against Accrington to help keep us up, can hopefully build on that. We are still waiting to hear back...

Tbf whilst money would be a big factor in this potential move, it would also mean he could go back to his home area. He'd be 3/4 hours closer! Location does come into it for players, we lost Mullin partly because of that and money so perhaps similar if May went to Gills. It's easy to dismiss...

Only confirmed the two games so far. Ipswich at home and Barnet away which will be our last preseason game before the season starts.

Mitov can make outstanding performances like Newcastle away, but overall he's a pretty standard keeper that's good enough for a lower league 1 team. I know some U's fans thought we could get better but personally I thought we should keep him and concentrate on rebuilding other parts of the...

Departing the club at the conclusion of their contract on 30/06/23: Greg Taylor, Liam O’Neil, Dimitar Mitov, Harvey Knibbs, Joe Ironside, Sam Smith, Shilow Tracey, George Williams, Lloyd Jones, Ben Worman Players offered a new contract at the conclusion of their contract on 30/06/23: Ryan...

Could have hoped for: Well think many people were hoping for mid table again after the previous season to help further establish ourselves in the league. Think most of our supporters would have been content with staying up and beating Pish. What went wrong: We did both but we cut it too fine if...

So there is loyalty in football?

Most of the talk about it being a done deal seems to be coming from Rotherham, since then though people from our end have been told he's going to be doing the pre-match press conference on Thursday morning ahead of the game on Saturday. Which is interesting because he didn't do that last week.
