    EP361: Golden Calculator

    Are we going up automatically after all? Or could we end up missing out on the play-offs entirely? We're not ruling anything out, as making predictions in this division this season has been an entirely moot exercise. Nevertheless, Nick and Stu attempt to prognosticate on whom will find themselves in the top three after 46 games. Some have, on paper, easier run-ins than others. Alongside that, we review Harrogate, discuss the 91 Football League grounds, play MFWAJJOTM, and look ahead to the trip to Doncaster on Saturday.

    EP360: Just so typically me

    Nick and Stu return to pick the bones out of a mad week. Why has the team lost the ability to hold onto a lead? There are a few key reasons to investigate. The knock-on effect, with automatic promotion now looking trickier and holding on to a play-off place looking less assured, is also food for thought. Alongside that - how are so many lower league clubs losing so much money? And can Stu get the cryptic clue on MFWAJJOTM? And have you seen Adolescence yet?!

    EP369: Grab all they can

    A little disquiet has accompanied the release of season and matchday ticket prices for next season. Nick and Stu consider the issues, and whether the costs are justified, and if some of the criticism has been a little unfair. Alongside that, we revisit the latest 2-2 draw from 2-0 up, and wonder whether the point with Barrow was actually better than it felt on Saturday night, and if it will serve us in the long run. We also have MFWAJJOTM and a look ahead to the trip to Warsaw on Saturday.

    EP358: Reason to Believe

    Nick and Stu return to discuss our return to the automatic promotion positions following a win at Carlisle and some favourable results elsewhere. How important were the changes we made, and is this an end to our dodgy run en route to a procession to promotion? Alongside this, we ostensibly discuss the realities of a football regulator, but it's safe to say we get sidetracked into many other topics, including terraces, TV, and dodgy owners. We finish with a tricky MFWAJJOTM and a look ahead to this weekend's action.

    EP357: I'm your hell, I'm your dream

    Our dodgy spell continued this week with defeat at home to Cheltenham, but should we have seen the light of the Notts County win was a false dawn at the time? Nick seems to think so, and the problems we've been having, arguably since the turn of the year, continue to raise more questions than answers. However, Stu has one key reason as to why our form has dropped off, but can the issue he highlights be resolved in time to keep us in the play-off places come May? Alongside discussion of our trials comes a look ahead to the game at Carlisle on Saturday, MFWAJJOTM, and a chat about our finances, and how we offset losses without player sales ...

    EP356: Now I feel like sh...

    Nick and Stu return to discuss how and why the team have gone from 12 unbeaten to winless in four, and why have the goals dried up? Alongside that we nose around Division Four, with a focus on who might still gate crash the play-offs, and which club (spoiler: we hate them) looks to be in crisis and potentially heading for the drop. We also have a fun go of MFWAJJOTM, and Stu offers a startling revelation ...

    EP355: Shut my mouth and just believe

    Few different topics this week! Obviously an excellent win over Bradford to kick things off, with assorted selection and tactical considerations, but then we delve into more BREAKING NEWS AUDIO as we discover another game has been moved to a 12.30 kick-off for broadcasting reasons. Dons Trust board positions and Bond repayments follow, before Nick and Stu give their thoughts on the proposal to change promotion and relegation between League Two and the National League to three up, three down. A fun MFWAJJOTM and a quick Accrington Stanley (who are they etc) round-off another fun show!

    EP354: Reach the Stars

    BREAKING NEWS AUDIO as Nick and Stu react to news of a new signing. Who is Osman Foyo, and what can we expect from him? Alongside that, we talk our two draws on the road from this past week, and Nick explains why Bletchley is the worst place in the world. We also discuss the Division Four promotion race, our big game with Bradford at the weekend, and 12.30 kick-offs. MFWAJJOTM rounds off another fun episode.
