I know it’s probably all the excitement of the last few days going to my head. But Wollacott, Hunt, Baudry, Conroy, Iandolo, Lyden, Payne and potentially Grant isn’t a bad starting point for a first XI.
5 of them won this league just over 12 months ago. Fuck staying up, we can be in and around the play offs!!

What's going on with Pitman? he's still contracted to us right? or did we breach that contract by not paying him?

What they are saying to the media about staying up being the ambition, is probably way different to what hey are saying on the training ground. Lower expectation, relieve pressure.

Tbf, Payne said he’d stay if he thought we’d be challenging. That will be a good pointer, I think.

There was a cryptic comment from Garner on the Pitman and Grounds situation...."we are contacting the EFL about it".

All positive stuff, its great to hear how they are improving the medical and science depts, its always things like this that helps attract players.

I'm sure the players are being told this seasons ambition but are also being told the longer terms aims, so they know it may be a hard season but hang in there and be part of the joy ride in helping to improve on the pitch

Has there been any mention yet about Lyden going off the other day?

Haven't listened to Hodgetts much, was he such a negative chippy sod with power?

Led to believe that Brett, Brett, Brett, Brett Pitman, Brett Pitman refused to come back to the club until.he was paid. Grounds was self isolating but he should have returned and he hasn't
Suspect they want to speak to EFL in order to see where the club stands given their non return.
Believe the issue with Lyden was down to feeling a tight hamstring

I think what that meant is finding out whether the contract options the club exercised (Grounds? Why?) were still valid - I don't know if the players had a say in whether they could accept or reject the extensions, or whether the club's failure to pay them and their withdrawal of labour meant they were invalidated anyway. I think that's what they're trying to unravel now.

I’m sure I read he felt tight, so wasn’t worth risking it, should be okay for Saturday?

If they don't want to come back then thats fine, let them drift of to NL

Listened today. Liked what I heard. It seems clear to me that Morfuni just won’t get involved in the day to day, which is fine, and he’ll leave that to the others - rightly so. I got the feeling he’s along for the ride, and hopefully some ground development. Garner spoke well. As did Rob Angus. We’re now a fan led club. Who’d have bet on that when the orange hats were out!
