Phew, so it's not Kyle Cameron.

And no Sunshine Band.

I thought it might be KC Jones, steamin' and a rollin'

A few things I remember from the evening?

* We have an above-average budget for the division, but are far from having the biggest budget. As RM described it, a few clubs have very big budgets for L2, then there?s a group with similar above-average budgets, which is where we sit.

* A striker offering something a little different to what we currently have is on the radar for January.

*Asked about inverted wing backs, SM pointed out the benefits of having a wing back being able to clear with their best foot when the ball comes in from the opposite flank. He said we were conceding a lot of goals this way last season, but we?re not now. He thinks Bass is the best keeper in L2.

* SM and the club both prefer Friday to Sunday games when we have a clash with Forest. A show of hands among those present showed an overwhelming majority also preferred Fridays.

* We got a very favourable deal from Spurs with Abbott - sounds like we?re not paying too much for him. RM likes loan players because they represent great value for money, but it?s a gamble when you get raw U-21s who?ve not played men?s football before.

* Although the padel court and the Nest are listed as separate entities, they contribute towards making the club more self-sufficient. The revenue from them goes into the club.

* Talking of the Nest, West Ham fans spent a fortune there the other week. I?ve always liked WHU.

* Not many questions for the bros, but they reiterated their aim of getting us promoted. RM mentioned getting promoted this season several times, forcing wry smiles from SM.

Cheers for that. Good to get some clarification on the Nest and padel courts.

KC is putting some bits on X, possibly 1 more from abroad they're looking into it dominant club in the city for Academy players safe standing nxt season trial, right time to let Langstaff go.

How did they come to the conclusion about Langstaff?. Extended contract, made captain. Some hood winking to me, me thinks

Regarding the preference for Friday nights, as opposed to Sunday afternoon kick offs, presumably those in favour are Nottingham residents (they attended the forum, so maybe do not live far away). Friday nights are impossible for me, there are no trains back, and I guess for a significant number of supporters who live some distance. So, Sunday games might not be so convenient for some, but for others Friday nights are an impossibility. It would also be nice, although idealistic, for F-word to move their games once in a while!

I think the third sentence there is more relevant to the second sentence than the first one is. If that?s his reasoning he?s mad.

A bloody question about hand rails AGAIN!!!

[kill_the_drum]

I?ve seen today when we can hope to see Jones back but was it discussed when we will see Crowley?
