Sensible move by him, you’d think he’ll actually play.

It’s def a thing, although how plausible us actually pulling it off is I’m not sure. We’ve just come into a load of unbudgeted money so can probably cover a decent chunk of his wages for a few months, but as you say, one of those teams near the top of League One would surely fancy it. Unless...

I’ll believe it when I see it, but we’re trying to get Langstaff back for the rest of the season.

We’ve been linked with that Cousens as well, along with pretty much every local EFL team. Think Ilkeston are trying to get a bidding war going.

I’m still not completely dissuaded of this tbf. Credit where it’s due, though, he’s simplified his system and line-ups and got us playing well.

I was less sold than others on Abbott until the last few weeks, but since he scored that half way line goal at Peterborough he’s been absolutely fantastic. A midfielder who can do absolutely everything. On Crowley, part of it is naturally bitterness at him doing what he’s done mid-season, but I...

He played an EFL Trophy game for Spurs before joining, which counts towards the two clubs thing so he can’t be loaned anywhere else. :)

Early days and shit opposition, but really enjoyed this first look at post-Crowley Notts. Much quicker moving the ball and an actual threat on transition without an obvious weakness in our press. McGoldrick has been fantastic again.

The pace we’ve been able to attack with there… I am moved.

One thing I’ve learned from watching us play this way over the last few years is that League Two players can sometimes be too thick to have the common sense to override the plan when it’s obviously the right thing to do. We love short corners, and sometimes they’re really effective, but there’s...

My head fell off at the end there when they just passed it around until the ref blew up, having had about six chances to cross it. And I’m used to watching Notts every week.

Carlisle are massively reminiscent of Notts the year we went down. Vibes there just seem absolutely rotten and I’m not sure new signings are going to help that.

Yup, since we signed him he’s played as a wing back on both sides and in all four of our midfield ‘positions’ at one time or another. Usually drops a reasonable performance with lots of running around and pressing. Never going to be a star but he probably allows you to carry one or two fewer...

The other side supposedly interested in are our owners’ other club in Denmark. Hope we get involved, who doesn’t want a random man from the Faroe Islands.

He’s a bit more ‘in’ than your average sporting director isn’t he? Director of the club and the owners’ business, don’t know if he has any kind of actual financial stake in the thing but he’s a bit more than just a straight employee. Nice bloke as well, sometimes gets the same train back from...

Jones should obviously start if he’s ready, but looked well off it still in the couple of sub appearances he’s had IMO. Obviously we’ve not played for a couple of weeks, so a fortnight of training might have him closer to full sharpness and ready to do 70 mins rather than 30 though. I remain a...

They only had half a great relationship as well. Their relationship going back towards their own goal was a car crash (not that they were alone in that tbf). Anyway, Legia Warsaw have enquired about Jatta. Would cost a fortune this month… but how are we out here maybe selling players to Legia...

In a team that finished in the bottom half of the table and threatened records for conceding goals, but yes.

Absolutely not without the club’s permission. Which is why players say things like ‘I’ve known of the interest for a while’ - he’s not the sharpest, I don’t think.

It’s not so much what they’ve said as what they didn’t say. Connell Rawlinson pretty much got a eulogy. Crowley saying he’s been communicating with MK since the last window is funny as well. Obviously everyone knows that, but it’s not the part you say out loud!
