I'm definitely looking forward to this season, so much more than many of the last. I read somewhere Uni's worst league finish, in his managerial career, was 8th, with a team he got promoted the previous season.

Out of interest who are our 7 injured players?

That last line, Dave, everybody is tipping us to win the Conference Cup but don't be surprised if our silverware is domestic. Both would be nice obviously but if I had to choose..

An excellent piece, Dave. You've summed up the tremendous pre-season optimism but also, in the last paragraphs, the concerns very well.

Thank you, and it's about time you chipped in again
