THE KING LIVES ON
A cow competition. They do. They do best in show. So it's the it's the best cow. Yeah, a little bit like cow crosss. They also have Pig Pig shows as well. Um, they're a bit more difficult to navigate because the pigs don't really know what they're doing. They're quite quick even though they're quite little.
02:59.35

THE KING LIVES ON
The little ones quick and but it's basically like for example, like you might win like the fattest cow which is not an offensive term for for anyone that's interested in the welfare of cows. It's just like the best cow that will have the best provide the best like meat on it. For example and the pigs you like the biggest fattest pigs to provide the best sausages, etc, etc. But the cheap chearing is is my thing gone.

08:57.50
charlescommins
Um, so yeah, they're looking at bringing in somebody of that kind of ilk a bit of competition by the looks of it. It does it only takescks an injury phrase a horse will signed for um, dollar sign stockport.
08:58.54
Neil gerton
Um, and you go So he's got a bit of a bit of a competition on his hands.
09:01.30

09:18.77
THE KING LIVES ON
I Mean fair play go for it lad but I would I'm I'm a bit gutted that that um Partnerships been chopped in our off if I'm honest aber song in a rich man's world.
09:19.50
Neil gerton
So booth it.
09:28.86
Neil gerton
Money money money money money money.
09:33.53
Steffi Graf
Buddy. It must be funny. Ah yeah I think it's one of them. It's one of them you you if you go to a league one squad league 1 team you're not that bothered because and you think are you going to go and progress your career but this is clearly what it's for isn't it.
09:38.26
THE KING LIVES ON
I'm promising in today.
09:46.13
Neil gerton
And.
09:47.90
Steffi Graf
But there's no, there's no to I mean I think some of the players commented on this Twitter post and they with like dollar signs in all their replies and money bag signs and stuff. It's hilarious. Ah, that's it.
09:49.34
charlescommins
Brilliant.
09:57.14
Neil gerton
It's one of them minute look I think you can argue it and I knowing there's the mild argument that he's gone because he lives. He's a bit closer to his houses and stuff. Maybe you're gone for the money like dress it up. You've got an and I get it and I understand it.
10:03.59
Steffi Graf
No, that's that rush. You can't use. You can never use that s excuse in in this country I'm sure that's.
10:13.65
Neil gerton
But way look they got short careers. You go for the money you take what you can get right? Of course you do um I think do you think Stockport County have got a bit carried away with with sign in like he's not. It's not Franco burrey.
10:15.98
charlescommins
Um, yeah.
10:23.80
Steffi Graf
Um, yeah, yeah.
10:31.33
Neil gerton
He is he like he's a half. He's a decent enough league to centerback. He would be. He's not. He's no in here. He's not even Che he's he he struggled in league one in fairness didn't he he.
10:32.37
charlescommins
Yeah, he's no cheerlini. His own lady The dirty.
10:44.84
THE KING LIVES ON
He wasn't the player he is in league 2 Definitely not.
10:45.20
charlescommins
Yeah, ah.
10:48.32
Neil gerton
No I know agree. Yeah, but like you know if you go on and I know we struggled in league one. So naturally you're gonna you struggle more and stuff. But if you asked on that those performances in league one. He's all right, but he's not particularly good. Yeah, he's been a lot better in league too with guffy behind him or next to him even and ah.
11:07.11
charlescommins
And I do we did a pod about it.
11:07.34
Neil gerton
Better goalkeeper. Let's be honest, um I should like you know when Charlie good left. You're like we did and you could see right? He's a good player. He's definitely definitely got something about him and he's definitely going places and stuff horseful I'm not. I'm not certain he would ever make it above league one. So.
11:27.10
charlescommins
Well um, Dave Challenger the stockport county manager just seems to think that he's a championship level defender.
11:33.50
THE KING LIVES ON
Oh no, I'm not I'm not sold on that.
11:33.16
Neil gerton
That that's that's not true at's all.
11:37.80
charlescommins
I will say that he he believes He can become a championship level defender rather than right now. Yeah, there were there were a couple of times weren't there a couple of times where he slipped over or.
11:40.30
Neil gerton
Yeah, maybe be like it's got a lot of developing still to do I mean in actually if you want to be harsh about it. Hecotas promotion.
11:40.44
THE KING LIVES ON
Yeah, fair play point but he's not now.
11:56.22
charlescommins
Given the ball away was it was it him with the with the short. Yeah short back passes couple of bad humbles Carlisle away for one. Oh god that was dreadful. Um.
11:57.10
Neil gerton
So inexplicably hand boldd it a couple of times of.
12:05.34
Neil gerton
So I Just think yeah, he's he's ah he's of course like you. It's not like he get people that are suddenly like if you don't say the best things about like so grope just so just not so grapes. It's a realistic view of him as a footballer. Yeah, he's decent for league too. But he's not like it's not it. We going to shed any tears that we've lost him. No 5.
12:26.43
charlescommins
I I think I agree with Danny who on on our whatsapp group when it was announced finally because it's been is taking flipping ages for this deal to go through. It seems as as much as I won't necessarily miss him individually because of those errors that. That were there. What I will miss is this partnership that him and guthrie had developed because that to me was what was really solid and no not at all.
12:54.90
Neil gerton
So I wouldn't worry about it I think I think the the club the 1 thing strikers we yeah we struggle at signing. Let's be honest when we always get it wrong centrebacks and actually defenders were pretty good at spotting a good defender.
13:04.46
charlescommins
Excuse me. Okay.
13:14.59
Neil gerton
And developing defenders I don't it's rare I mean obviously don't want a heart back to the Gary Johnson Era but it's it's rare that you know we sign an absolute thud of a defender or anything I think we're pretty good in that respect. But.
13:25.23
charlescommins
To be fair just on that point though are we um I might be completely wrong and off the boil here, but the ah the vast majority of our managers normally have played as.
13:31.61
Steffi Graf
Susan.
13:42.32
charlescommins
Defenders or defensive minded players am I right? I can't remember a former striker being our manager can we? That's going back. A long way isn't it in fairness now and we we don't want to admit that boys. But that's going back a long way.
13:44.87
Steffi Graf
Because you've heard all this Captain Wilson
13:48.46
Neil gerton
Super careful. Yeah yeah, we've always been a more.
13:53.18
Steffi Graf
Yeah, but I think I don't the E Yeah and thank you general You don't get too many strikers that are managers that good managers. Anyway, do you.
14:00.33
Neil gerton
And way rooney.
14:01.52
charlescommins
Having taken? yeah.
14:04.55
Steffi Graf
But Kebbby Giegan yeah no enough Kenny Doish to in rush. But when we've got Colin and we've got Colin and samo and.
14:06.10
Neil gerton
And no yeah I think youre oh it's it's yeah it is less likely isn't it. But yeah like I don't see it as it I honestly don't see it as a major issue I don't think that partnership would have been as strong this year anyway without Lee and roberts behind them.
14:11.19
charlescommins
Yeah.
14:22.40
Steffi Graf
Ah.
14:23.56
Neil gerton
That's not to say that Lee Burge isn't going to be a good goal. Everyone know we'll come on to the sign-ins but it' it's not I don't it's not what I those like I mean I think I was probably more guided when aonpierre left.
14:33.48
charlescommins
Right? Yeah, he's been released. Doesn't he I.
14:34.62
Steffi Graf
Get him in but think um I think we're definitely gonna see the power of Guthrie this year as to how much of an impact he had because he's clearly talked him through a lot of the stuff. It's just such a good person to have in there for whoever does come in or or max dish. Whatever who he whose game who could well.
14:36.21
Neil gerton
Yeah, Amy yeah okay Heyman. Yeah.
14:48.75
charlescommins
I Was gonna say max stolish. Yeah.
14:54.35
Steffi Graf
Come to the fore this season as well. But for anyone coming in to learn from guther's and coldulerwood and samo is great but play this back at the end of the season because and and like a lot of them Startts that Horse fools gonna.
14:55.20
Neil gerton
I oh yeah I just I just don't see it as and that is a major concern to be honest was but yeah, yeah, bloody and I can't believe we sign Richard hope again.
15:04.50
charlescommins
Ah, look say ha.
15:12.72
Neil gerton
Then.
15:12.73
Steffi Graf
Come up with his goals as well isn't it so that we're going to miss that your like his towering presence at the other end. Um.
15:13.37
charlescommins
I Think as well he was He was quite high in the stats old stats leader boards for things like aerial contests one and stuff wasn't he yeah.
15:23.40
Neil gerton
He was yeah he was high. He was the leader weren' he but you know I best 1 in the world and yeah he is an eat.
15:23.46
THE KING LIVES ON

15:23.63
Steffi Graf
Have Jewels here.
15:30.38
Steffi Graf
It'd be interesting. It'd be to see how he does at stopball because he's suddenly now under massive amounts of pressure straight away a lot I already well no weigh in the club down though in it and the expectations from stockbo fans reading their messages this evening on the Signin think they're saying oh that's league one.
15:34.30
THE KING LIVES ON

15:46.56
THE KING LIVES ON
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.
15:47.78
Steffi Graf
Guaranteed We've won the League Sea Win league won all this kind of nonsense and straight away. They're going to be the most hated team the league and that's quite rare for a promoted team to have to be that hated and that gunning foot we're gunning for them from the start and it's.
15:54.91
Neil gerton
Yeah, ah, but yeah, but you're right though? Danny though because Charles Salford like they haven't got enough fans to make a noise really like on on social media and if you never really see any Salford fans or even crawly fans given it the the big I am ever anywhere and anything.
15:56.93
charlescommins
Sulf it.
16:05.64
charlescommins

16:12.48
charlescommins
I crawly fans all just buying up nfts proper club we know, but what I mean is is that they're a proper old club aren't they yes, they've been away at what is it 11 years I think they've been out of the league for. But.
16:14.33
Neil gerton
Like stop for do yeah exactly that's why I said you're right? Danny like there's a yeah, well yeah, but not anymore. Oh yeah.
16:31.41
charlescommins
You know they didn't go bust did they and this isn't a Phoenix club This is still stockport county and this is still they still kept all their fans didn't they I mean they were getting like really really good attendencies in not in National League North for quite a number of tight years as well. So I mean.
16:39.34
Neil gerton
They got:16:49.74
charlescommins
Yeah, that this for me, there's still a a proper club whereas maybe you look at soulford and go you know you? Well yeah I mean in terms of like being where they are a soulford. Let's let soford have got 200 actual fans.
16:54.60
Neil gerton
So oh yeah, serious well solve for her of Croco Proper club bro.
17:00.80
THE KING LIVES ON
Ding.
17:03.77
Neil gerton
The stockport a bigger and more historical.
17:09.20
charlescommins
And then they've got a couple of thousand you know man United Man City fans who just go along when United aren't playing you go Um, shall we move on to how we're gonna H Ms Pis the league speaking of that.
17:15.63
Neil gerton
Respect.
17:21.98
Neil gerton
Speaking speaking fans. Yeah bloody out charles.
17:22.74
Steffi Graf
Speaking of fans being above the station.
17:27.13
charlescommins
Yeah, ah, well look Seawman Williams um will start there because he was the third out of contract player that we'd offered a deal to he did sign on the dotted line a new two year deal. Um, really good in my opinion. To have him signed up I think if we're all being honest, he was probably the most likely to stay wasn't he um.
17:53.53
Neil gerton
It's actually a question isn't it and I know we're jumping forward a little bit but so it's actually a question on the post bag. A little bit later. Um, one of the questions that came in was um from Ros Ros Spokes on slack hi ros.
17:58.27
charlescommins
Yeah, yes.
18:07.65
charlescommins
Hi roz.
18:11.47
Neil gerton
Um, and actually she was saying now that we know 2 of the 3 players that we offered contracts to have left if we were told you're only allowed to keep one of them who would you have chosen and why and I just thought this might be a pertinent time to discuss that. So.
18:24.12
charlescommins
Yeah, yeah, like I did I think so I'm torn here I'll be honest. Okay I I was gonna say I'd have gone for Lion Roberts
18:29.16
Neil gerton
So I'm not I've got mine but I'm interested in what everyone else is is.
18:41.56
Neil gerton
Interesting danny.
18:45.73
Steffi Graf
It's hard because we've replaced one of them. But so it's difficult now known that we've got a competent goalkeeper in a yeah other if you know but a ah I get the feeling is um.
18:47.25
charlescommins
Yeah, hopefully not not seeing me at danny.
19:02.32
Steffi Graf
3 actually I think the right one I think if if you're going in order I think what was a roberts horseful would have been my order just I think Roberts would have pushed it for sure. But I think there's enough competent goalkeepers.
19:21.00
charlescommins
Okay.
19:21.33
Steffi Graf
Can get at this level whereas I think mawaa brings a lot more to the team and considering we've signed another play in that position as well. That can work quite well with it. Hopefully I yeah and I think that that lunchevity at the club as well helps having that history with the club. Um, just lean towards mais think.
19:36.66
charlescommins
Yeah, chesy.
19:40.26
THE KING LIVES ON
I think it's important to put expectation in this right? because if you if we were talking about us having been promoted to league one I think Roberts probably would have signed.
19:40.64
Steffi Graf
Ah, Roberts would definitely been.
19:58.67
THE KING LIVES ON
To be honest, unless he was offered something mega I mean millsbury is mega but so I think that changes it slightly now I would have offered Liam Roberts an entire farm and tractor. But it declined so unfortunately he's gone. Um. But I think Roberts would have been my real big one to sign but I kind of always and expected him to go mcwilliams I think was kind of equally as important for the reasons that um, Danny Highlights in the the fact that it's that longevity with the club and and for many years we've been. Kind of screaming out for that real connectivity with fans and we we finally got that last year and without speaking too soon. We're kind of seeing the skeleton of that team kind of remain without the exceptions that we were expecting. So.
20:50.39
charlescommins
Can I just tell you why I didn't go with Searman Williams Neil and just no but because of the fact that we would have been due quite a hefty fee if he'd have left. So.
20:53.94
THE KING LIVES ON
That's really key I think.
20:58.67
Neil gerton
Because you hate him.
21:05.83
THE KING LIVES ON
Yeah, yeah.
21:08.92
Steffi Graf
Is.
21:10.31
charlescommins
I I think that that the cynic in me says the reason why he's still here is because there wasn't a club out there prepared to pay the fee that it would have cost them through tribunal to therefore sign him. But I think had he have gone therefore we'd have been. Given a nice big amount of money for me. The fact that we've lost roberts on a free transfer is quite galling but I get the fact that he didn't want to sign more than a one year deal when he signed this time last year with us. I get the fact that there wasn't anything that we could have done essentially and and I look at it in a way of going. We had a season of him and I'd rather have had that season than not but that's why I put Shawman Williams actually none in in my sort of thing of like if if if we can't keep Roberts then I'd keep what was a and then it would be if I can't keep either of those two I'd have kept horseful does that make sense who who was yours Neil you said that you you knew yours? yeah.
22:17.20
Neil gerton
Does it does oh fair mutwaer. Yeah, absolutely it would have been same order as danny attro Mc Waso roberts horseful for similar reasons to Danny said I think could we like he's unique in the respect of.
22:27.10
Steffi Graf
Yeah.
22:35.37
Neil gerton
A boxed box breaks up play and he was starting to control games and he's only going to keep developing and getting better I think those sort of players are harder to find than ah, a competent goalkeeper or competent cine. So for me and and's also he's local and he's you know.
22:47.20
Steffi Graf
Yeah, was.
22:52.91
Neil gerton
The famous song goes is 1 of our own. So definitely yeah I get what you're saying about the money side of thing charles and stuff but okay work for us in it. Yeah.
23:01.66
charlescommins
Oh yeah, absolutely don't you ah worry about that. Um Lee Burge then comes in as our new goalkeeper I presume is our new number one.
23:07.58
Steffi Graf
A j.
23:13.10
THE KING LIVES ON
If he's not the show never attending again. Not my words is.
23:13.13
Steffi Graf
Got to be surely.
23:13.45
Neil gerton
I I would think I would think so yeah.
23:18.31
charlescommins
I do think I do think that everybody's being a bit cruel on Johnny Maxstead but I understand that I understand that he's you know he probably is number 2 and and to be honest I was when when the Lee Burge signing was announced because he'd been mentioned a few times hadn't he on the.
23:23.20
Neil gerton
Where is shader.
23:23.31
Steffi Graf
Oh I love Johnny Max dead
23:37.83
charlescommins
Transform rooma Twitter accounts. Well no I don't follow any of them either. But it's really hard when repeat loads of people just keep retweeting it into the timeline. It's gosh. It's annoying anyway, um I was like we're not going to sign Leurge he's too good for us I didn't realize though he'd not played.
23:38.41
Steffi Graf
That Ah don't follow any of them things know that please.
23:45.75
Neil gerton
By to.
23:56.93
charlescommins
Last year pretty what but he didn't yard who played at all did he had long covid I think so you know good. Hopefully he's completely over that I'm sure he is I'm sure he's fully recovered what a signing that is really I'm I'm really excited about this like you said danny.
24:00.26
Steffi Graf
Yeah.
24:00.58
Neil gerton
So Longco video.
24:14.58
charlescommins
The fact that we've signed a player that is on paper as good as if not better than Leon Roberts I'm I'm really pleased with that.
24:22.29
Steffi Graf
Yeah, is comes with experience and like the level that is played at consistently for quite a few years now um as a goalkeeper I think that's really important. You know you I feel like I trust him already and I don't know why it's really weird and that's what you need in a goalkeeper you want fans and. And the defenders especially to trust him. Um, feel like it's a safe pair of hands. It's a really good replacement for Roberts for sure. Um, and I think it'll only take None or 3 games hopefully to to forget about Lee and roberts and that's the thing with goalkeepers you you can easily forget them unfortunately, unfortunately for them. But. Only takes a couple of clean sheets to start of the season for then. So everyone to be like oh whatever? No, but we've moved on already kind of thing whereas if we're talking about Mcwilliams again. There can easily be holes in the midfield that you can notice quite quickly. But I I think it's a great signing I think all of them are great sign ins. But.
25:01.69
charlescommins
And.
25:16.25
Steffi Graf
Signing a keeper of this quality I think is really important and really really good.
25:19.23
charlescommins
Yeah.
25:19.91
THE KING LIVES ON
I think it's really important when you're especially actually when you're bouncing back from such horrific disappointment because let's not dress it up. That's what it was um that you're signing good quality players. Um Sean has always had this real thing about if you're going for promotion. You will be sign. Signing players from further up the leagues because like Danny says you've got the experience to draw on from those kinds of players. None thing that we had last year wasn't actually experience from high leagues but it was just a genuinely decent group of players and None thing maybe that we were just in the end short of was a couple of players with that. Bit more league None championship experience because that really can sometimes unlock it so that's really important and I think as well we were in real danger actually of there being a I mean we don't know because we haven't seen. We're just going on what we think right? but ah.
26:04.40
charlescommins
Um, yeah.
26:18.93
THE KING LIVES ON
We were in real danger of a big backed baptism of fire had Roberts not have been replaced. Well oh massively? Yeah well and also for the fans because if you look at the.
26:25.76
Steffi Graf
Yeah, it would have been a really tricky for for a newkeeper who's not very good kind of thing one there.
26:25.80
charlescommins
M.
26:37.10
THE KING LIVES ON
Commandingness come No I've made that word up. But how command yeah, how commanding but not just his box just generally in terms of his defense and and everything about him to not replace that Well you are already on the back foot and you the fans of backs are already up.
26:37.51
charlescommins
And the commanding of his box. Yeah.
26:51.94
charlescommins
Yeah, can I add to what you said at at the start of that chesy about having the experience from the higher leagues I I think as well that sometimes you can get away without having higher league experience if you've got. Experience of the league that you're in and being at the top end of that and maybe even getting out of it which is which is where I kind of look at like Danny Haynes for example left back. He's obviously coming to challenge and the king for the left back spot.
27:10.50
THE KING LIVES ON
And I agree.
27:25.92
Steffi Graf
Jeffie hates them already.
27:27.92
charlescommins
Ah, but having come from newport who have been up towards the top end of league 2 for the last couple of years that's a good experience that's going to be coming into into the dressing room I think which is which is good because I mean essentially you're looking at it and you're going right. We've got as I can't remember who said it earlier but you know the skeleton of last year's squad is still pretty much there. They all have experience of operating at the top end of lead to we've brought another player in now from the outside who also has that experience as well. That's really good and then you go to Danny Hilton who has obviously got experience of getting out of this division although only playing with the best team in the league. Apparently um, and then rising up from but did he join Luton when they were in league one or league. No he was he went straight back to league None didn't he.
28:17.67
THE KING LIVES ON
Yeah, yeah.
28:22.66
charlescommins
So went to luton so he then rose all the way through up to the championship with luton so he's got bundles of experience. Not just at league 2 level but also at league one and the championship as well. Absolutely.
28:33.90
THE KING LIVES ON
He's a quality player what he needs though he needs to be a quality player and banging 10 ah thousand goals for us.
28:38.81
charlescommins
Yes, please I would like that all um Ben Fox kind of yeah course come yeah.
28:44.72
Steffi Graf
Could I just go back to Hilton quickly before we move on because when I saw his name. Ah um, linked with us I just couldn't bring my heads to to think he was going to sign for us. Um. But once you're signed you get all the comments from luten fans saying how positive it will be for us and especially coming to leagues down I think he started the semifinal didn't he in the playoffs. But yeah, you can tell I've been watching a lot of championship playoffs semifinals this this summer but he started that he is more than anything I think for him, it's the character.
29:02.21
THE KING LIVES ON
In here.
29:02.35
Neil gerton
It did I did.
29:02.90
charlescommins
And.
29:16.24
Steffi Graf
What I've been saying for probably a few years now we miss characters. We missed that the people that fans are going to warm to straight away. We miss the characters that are going to cause chaos across the pitch and you're going to just love straight away. Danny Rose tried to do it and I think he got a little bit of a cult following by the end of it.
29:33.68
THE KING LIVES ON
Animal the None
29:35.51
Steffi Graf
But he was never really the animal yet. But we've never really had that player who's going to score loads of goals as well at the same time and if he does that and is a character who's going to be a legend I think that's why he's a legend at Luton because it not only does his score goals but he's got the character to back it up as well and to to really connect with a fans and that's what I'm most excited about with him is that.
29:40.94
charlescommins
Ah, m.
29:48.60
charlescommins
Yeah.
29:54.24
Steffi Graf
He's he seems a little scamed and he um little scamp and he's just such an upgrade all of these players ah possibly birds you could argue on paper are upgrades on what they've left behind poor old milsey had to retire. Obviously what Danny Haines you think is going to push koii all the way which is what you want.
29:54.45
charlescommins
O sc.
29:55.20
Neil gerton
A little scamp.
30:00.80
THE KING LIVES ON
On paper.
30:04.31
charlescommins
And.
30:11.95
charlescommins
Yeah.
30:12.10
THE KING LIVES ON
And doing.
30:13.95
Steffi Graf
From the bench. We yeah ah Ben Fox is probably gonna play alongside Mc Williams I would have thought but you know if not then the the benches could be stung I think yeah mean sal willby if you if you have any 1 of them on the bench that straight away that's one of our problems last season was not having a strong enough bench.
30:22.85
charlescommins
It's it's just the fact that we've now got 3 central midfielders who could yeah yes.
30:33.56
Steffi Graf
Brady was just really not wanting to use his bench at all and part that reason was probably because there wasn't strong enough. There wasn't strong enough flowers on the bench and now you look at it thinking actually the way we go in is looking good.
30:43.82
charlescommins
Yeah, that is it I'm quite excited about Ben Fox because he's obviously on the up isn't he's come from grimsby who won the playoff final to get promoted into inter leaguegue 2 could have stayed with them but he's decided to come to None fields and and play with us. None ar deal. So that's a a good sign and ah I mean he was player of the match I believe in that playoff final. So um, really excited I mean the other player Neil I think you linked him to us more than anybody else, but Maatety was the.
31:09.40
THE KING LIVES ON
He was yeah.
31:17.45
Neil gerton
Auto Mate. Oh yeah, yeah, okay.
31:22.10
charlescommins
Grims be number 10 Um I think did he score in the final was it the semifinal there was that 1 game that that far that semifinal against rexome where it was a right old ding dong. Yeah, a ridiculous game. He scored a lovely goal from the outside of ah the the area I think.
31:29.32
Neil gerton
About 9 eight or of it. Yeah there. Yeah.
31:30.16
Steffi Graf
Oh the ding dong man.
31:30.79
THE KING LIVES ON
Is crazy.
31:40.80
charlescommins
Ah, one point I got I got very excited when you were linking him to us and lo and behold. It was actually Ben Fox we were looking at um, but there you go broad player right? team well done Neil ah so um, very quickly before we move on and obviously that's.
31:45.32
Neil gerton
Yeah, yeah, bro gla yeah like you.
31:46.19
Steffi Graf
Judge. Ah.
31:58.29
charlescommins
4 new players and ah then ma wasa makes 5 signings if you like um, still I think I've read today James Henigan saying that we're looking at least 4 or 5 more before the window.
32:11.58
Neil gerton
Yeah, yeah.
32:14.77
charlescommins
Shots I'm not going to say before the start of the season because obviously that's only in what about four weeks time now. Um we are. It's the last weekend of July which is unusual and different but there you go.
32:18.13
THE KING LIVES ON
Literally four weeks because it's a we're really early aren't we worried youly kick off.
32:18.27
Neil gerton
I Long now.
32:31.90
charlescommins
Um, so four or 5 and more scientists come in I'm guessing. We're all going to say that we want at least 2 more strikers. Okay, good up front.
32:37.16
THE KING LIVES ON
I want 15 strikers and a tractor.
32:39.50
Neil gerton
Who if we got left upfront. Okay, whove we got left as official strikers as their only position. Yeah, just are and Hilton you and need look up. We might need a couple more bodies.
32:44.00
Steffi Graf
Samu Dois hoskins. Ah, oh out and outs strike as apore. Yeah.
32:48.19
charlescommins
Upper upper a upper in Hilton. Yeah, so need another 2 Yeah, need another 2
32:51.85
THE KING LIVES ON
Apore.
32:54.20
Steffi Graf
Yeah I think the way we play though if we're going to play the same way. It's more wingers that we need than than out and outstrirs and ideally ideally exactly? Yeah yeah, yeah, someone who could do both would be good.
32:57.17
THE KING LIVES ON
Um, yeah, yeah I agree.
32:59.40
Neil gerton
Or someone that someone that could do both flight macert and.
33:02.93
charlescommins
Ah, yeah I would like to see somebody come in I know that there's been talk about the fact that Danny Hilton could play in the number 10 but I would like to see a sign. Ah you know an out and out attacking midfielder somebody that will. Because I think the point was that we made that was made last season was that Paul Lewis played in that spot for a while but he wasn't quite the type of player that John Brady wanted in that position so we signed Idris Carnu who also wasn't the player that we wanted in that position.
33:25.17
THE KING LIVES ON
For.
33:39.10
charlescommins
So I think that's going to be something I would expect or at least I wouldn't be surprised if we signed at least 1 if not 2 players that can play in that position unless he thinks pinnock can go in there.
33:45.56
Neil gerton
You Yeah, you want? Well you want some some bit someone with a bit of trickery or creativity that can unlock the defendants here. Whatever that's what we lacked a lot of times wasn't it like it just lacked someone.
33:55.61
Steffi Graf
This is.
33:55.66
charlescommins
And.
33:58.80
THE KING LIVES ON
I'm gonna I'm gonna say this quietly I'm quite surprised that we've got away with pinnnack does that make sense. Yeah, like.
34:02.20
charlescommins
Like this really quietly.
34:08.17
Steffi Graf
So far as in not selling him. It's it's definitely not slipped under the radar on Instagram it's been part in all summer I'd love to have seen him reporting back to training on the None day because the way that.
34:12.49
THE KING LIVES ON
He slipped under the radar and I'm quappy about know. But what I boy mean is like oh my God he would have been hanging hanging hanging. Yeah, he would be properly properly.
34:15.36
charlescommins
No, no yeah, all odds.
34:24.74
Steffi Graf
It's literally been partying all summer.
34:25.42
charlescommins
Ah, that's probably why nobody's managed to say it. Basically he's not been answering his phone to anyone.
34:30.70
THE KING LIVES ON
Hung out to dry bless him.
34:34.71
Steffi Graf
Yeah.
34:35.23
THE KING LIVES ON
Yeah, well let's just keep it right? Mitch just turn your phone off until the None of July. Yeah.

34:46.73
THE KING LIVES ON
This he actually he's older than me. No, he's younger than me sorry.
34:47.84
charlescommins
I Think in to is prime.
34:51.10
Neil gerton
Ah I thought I suspect that it's say like 34 or so must be is ah is vastly receding hairline but tricks tricks us. Yeah, it's.
34:54.30
charlescommins
Oh.
34:59.00
THE KING LIVES ON
Yeah, he's got some. He's got like an Anne Mcpartland Hairdo going on isn't he.
35:03.49
charlescommins
Yeah, yeah, um, and let's not forget that obviously we've had 3 youth teamers step up into the first team fall with their first professional contract. So that's Peter Ainbola Miguwell and neguire and Jack Connor of all.
35:18.14
Steffi Graf
Make it.
35:19.30
THE KING LIVES ON
I'm well excited but mcgu naguire I think he is gonna be fantastic. He's been tearing it up in the Euphony. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
35:23.14
charlescommins
Be him and abin Bola as well. I'm excited about him.
35:23.63
Steffi Graf

35:41.16
Steffi Graf
5 minutes of fame in the position that I requested.
35:41.25
charlescommins
Yeah. Ah, um, so yeah, so hopefully we'll see um I'm I'm going to you know? Normally what happens None season is that they spend a lot of time on the bench but I'm hoping that we'll see a lot of them coming off that bench and then also in in games like in the league cup maybe and.
36:02.14
Neil gerton
We might be ones for loan get logged out Don'tly yeah here. Yeah, it did great for for him.
36:04.32
charlescommins
Ah, pizz such cup as well. And yeah, they they possibly might go out on loan as well I mean that did world of good for max dice of course spent a couple of months out on loan different clubs to aid his development. So that's all good. Um yep yep.
36:14.28
Steffi Graf
Scott Pollock
36:19.59
charlescommins
Really, he got it where he got a contractor Boston did me so that one month that Boston did the world of good.
36:21.90
Neil gerton
I love it by the way. Yeah, did get a contract at Boston so I'm pleased that he did get a contract at Boston but to remember back in the season es eye should be playing Scott Polltmore brilliant player really gonna change on. He's excellent brilliant. He's ended up at Boston. So.
36:36.32
THE KING LIVES ON
He's not good enough. He's not good enough.
36:41.90
Neil gerton
No I agree. Yeah I don't think he is but he's he's got something about him but he's you don't yeah too many too much so he much both headphones and.
36:43.81
THE KING LIVES ON
Needs to work harder I feel too much Instagram in.
36:49.33
charlescommins
To yeah, you know I'm going to say is I'm gonna say that I haven't seen enough of of it of him to to really make that decision and I'm just happy. Yeah on the football field but I'm quite happy that the people that have seen enough of him have made a decision.
36:50.10
Steffi Graf
Ah.
36:57.22
THE KING LIVES ON
On the football field. Yeah.
37:04.77
THE KING LIVES ON
Yeah, was it like 4 managers now with like 4 managers. Don't get it wrong where they're not incompetent.
37:04.88
Neil gerton
Yeah.
37:08.36
charlescommins
Yeah, yeah, well I think they were I mean to be fair I remember he played in the game at Oldham on the last day of the season. Ah when we smashed them 5 to sorry Neil and Sam Hoskins scored a worlddy if you remember that daddy. Um.
37:19.26
Neil gerton
I I remember that? yeah.
37:22.31
Steffi Graf
Ah, oh yes, yeah.
37:22.42
THE KING LIVES ON
Yeah, yeah.
37:25.94
charlescommins
but but I remember Scott Pollock I think he came on um with maybe 20 minutes to go or something but he played really well that day and you you did think to yourself. This is great this this stands him in good stead for the next season and I think that's when he got injured. He scored against carlyle didn't eat the following year. But then he got got injured and I just don't think that injury came at the best time for him. You wonder whether if he'd not been injured would it have been a different story for him. But as you know it's one of those isn't there at the end of the day.
37:43.00
Neil gerton
Yeah, yeah, did you.
37:53.90
Neil gerton
Maybe yeah.
37:58.76
charlescommins
Got it's the same as do you remember Louis Hornby you know Lewis Hol I think that was growing pains if I remember rightly there was something to do with the way that he was growing as a youngster growing up into you know adult bones if you like and that's what scupper his career.
37:59.78
THE KING LIVES ON
And.
38:00.40

41:23.31
charlescommins
Have lots of pol right. Okay.
41:39.66
Neil gerton
Not going to go into that one but we will delve into 1 from deepest darkest Australia.
41:43.90
Steffi Graf
Who is it from Dr Karl Kennedy is it from Alf Stewart
41:43.20
charlescommins
Oh sir.
41:47.50
Neil gerton
I note couldn't contact him but not from Al Stewart note
41:49.33
charlescommins
Oh oh. Ah, is it from the family of Steve Owen
41:59.72
Neil gerton
Ah, no, it is skippy. No it and it's from round the twist.
42:00.64
THE KING LIVES ON
Is it from skippy.
42:03.19
charlescommins
Ah, was was that skip you've got a you've got a post bag I said that said the mind What's that Oh what.
42:09.71
Steffi Graf
I To lift it as skippy was welsh from about the twist gone.
42:15.23
Neil gerton
Now round the twist have you heard the word about the bird and the spider.
42:20.67
charlescommins
Anybody this the are you know what? if you're younger the 35 you won't have a clue will you exactly point proven have you ever heard ever. Felt like this face things happened but he go in round the twist. Love it.
42:25.10
THE KING LIVES ON
I've got no idea what's going on.
42:26.45
Neil gerton
Um, it is from Melbourne Cobbler um, ever felt like this strange thing taboo when you go in round the twist brilliant sorry yes Melbourne Cobbler how important is the recruitment and ah.
42:29.92
Steffi Graf
That.
42:38.58
charlescommins
Go on melbourneulpa.
42:44.52
Neil gerton
Like kind of I can't say that word melbourne Cobbler you know that I can't say that word. It's got a big word. How important is the recruitment process for lower league clubs is more or less is it more or less important than tactical mouse or competent management.
42:45.71
charlescommins
Reconnaissance.
42:45.83
Steffi Graf
Yeah Melbourne Melbourne cobbler always comes up with some big words and.
42:53.32
charlescommins
Ah.
43:01.20
Neil gerton
I would argue that it is the most important factor in any successful lower league side being greedy here but secondly our fans demands regarding player loyalty ridiculously contradictory Some claim that valued players are disloyal and mercenary for switching clubs to the highest bidder.
43:10.31
charlescommins
Yes.
43:18.58
Neil gerton
Conversely, it's demanded that underform if underperforming players have their contracts cancelled and are cast out at moment's noticed with the prospect of no future income without a second thought shouldn't loyalty work both ways or not at all.
43:31.21
charlescommins
So it.
43:31.89
THE KING LIVES ON
Here's a question for the general podcast public. No this is part of this This is part of this right? So if you do like a standard like um British job.
43:34.22
Neil gerton
So should we ask his answer his None Jeffrey or oh okay, okay.
43:47.89
THE KING LIVES ON
right? I'm going to offer you:44:02.65
Neil gerton
I would say.
44:07.40
THE KING LIVES ON
Players shouldn't go for money. Yes, course they should. They're on massively limited careers crack on.
44:10.53
Neil gerton
ritish job is that's paying £:44:14.47
Steffi Graf
It is definitely not train driving or train train staff sorry not train drivings stuff is not about the driver. Sorry it's not is this nothing.
44:16.28
THE KING LIVES ON
Ah, i't know a job I mean sheep shearing in Somerset. Let's be honest, yeah.
44:21.82
charlescommins
Ah, train stay. Yes, it's not about the drivers. Danny.
44:22.98
Neil gerton
Ah, what is the thing. What is the most british job you can think of Queen's guard to m p.
44:29.38
charlescommins
Ah, ah oh good 1 queen queens guard. Ah oh while I write um, calm down. But.
44:29.79
THE KING LIVES ON
Fish and chip shop owner oh Tory and b.
44:36.20
Steffi Graf
Tory Mp
44:39.82
Neil gerton
But let's a British Danny not twtish. Sorry anyway, ever heard like this okay good answer Jeffie Good answer.
44:39.91
Steffi Graf
Oh sorry I thought I missed I You something have you ever, but this but what.
44:44.45
THE KING LIVES ON
So that's my that's that's my answer basically is what I'm saying and I think recruitment's the most important because we know from our recruitment of 2 particular people cost us relegation a couple of years back shall remain nameless. You know who you are.
44:48.73
charlescommins
I I.
44:55.55
Steffi Graf
Dead.
44:59.83
charlescommins
Now it's never gonna let it let that lie are we ever. But anyway um I.
45:03.76
THE KING LIVES ON
Note.
45:03.90
Neil gerton
And ah I would argue that the ah yeah I would argue that actually recruitment and competent management are equally important. Um because you can see it lots of times you can have a brilliant squad of.
45:12.92
charlescommins
And he. Yeah, so Gary Johnson oh excuse me go sorry yes she did I apologize. Ah all rogers.
45:20.48
Neil gerton
But an absolute donut in charge and it doesn't work out. So I think they have both of each. He said a a good squad Charles and but you do see it. Don't you. So I think it comes hand in hand. The tactical nouse thing I think I mean it is that.
45:20.80
Steffi Graf
And.
45:39.73
Neil gerton
Not just part of being a competent manager or.
45:41.80
charlescommins
I yeah I mean see I think what Melbourne is trying to say is that if you look at how well John Brady has done and he plays down I think doesn't he the I think what he's trying to do is play down the role of of. Like how much money the club has to splash out on amazingly supposedly talented players. It's not He's not trying to dumb down the players or anything like that. But he's just the way that the club talks is everything he's about trying to get the best out of what we have got and what we can get and John Brady is great at that.
46:02.71
Neil gerton
Yeah.
46:17.34
charlescommins
In terms of being a coach that can improve players. Um, so I think they do go hand in hand. But at the same time I can sort of see the question being like is it more important to have a coach that can work with essentially find a diamond in the rough I e take somebody that. Isn't wanted elsewhere and and turn them into a really good player or is it more important to get really good recruitment I suppose it has to go in hand hand in hand because your recruitment has to be good for what you can afford and what you can do and to make sure that you're getting the right type of player in. Regardless of you know expense so you might have a really small budget but that doesn't mean that you you can't go and get the right players. You know if you want to play 4 4 2 it doesn't matter how much money you have you? you basically need to you know you need to right back a left back two Centerbacks. 4 midfielders and 2 strikers. You wouldn't go out and sign lopsidedness just because you've got less money. You might not get the quality that you want but you'll still be able to go out and get the right right players when it when it comes to the like the loyalty thing. It's football and football fans are fickle. We all are so you know there are going to be people that are going to turn around and go fraser horsewa always's gone for money. There's no loyalty and then in the next breath they're going to be turning around and going isn't it great that we've signed Ben Fox from Grinsby. Was essentially done exactly the same thing. Yeah exactly I completely get your point Jeffy and I think I think when you look at it with a logical hat on then of course but.
47:49.99
Neil gerton
Yeah, it swings around about it happens isn't the and you look into it too much really? but I.
48:02.59
Steffi Graf
Fifth.
48:02.62
THE KING LIVES ON
I'm not logical. You see so and if I could say anything really and I wouldn't really I mean I'm I'm fairly clueless. Oh absolutely, everyone would.
48:07.17
charlescommins
But you're right though, you would take the money like if it if a school if a school comes in comes to you and doubles your wage for next term What you gonna do.
48:17.43
THE KING LIVES ON
I definitely hold on to my children because I love them. But you know yes, the principle still stands. You know if someone offers you a million pounds do your job you go in. There aren't you. It's common sense isn't it.
48:24.86
charlescommins
Yeah, exactly so there you are.
48:26.57
Neil gerton
Yeah, makes sense didn it there we go I think we answered ah Mr. Melbourne's questions and more got another one here. We go look Chris Freeman on the slack.
48:36.38
charlescommins
Ah, next s please.
48:39.98
Steffi Graf
Oh that's close.
48:44.70
charlescommins
That's http://patreon.comforward/cobblers to me by the way to come and join our slack community.
48:45.10
Neil gerton
Hey we we go and this is a trick there we go and with the loss of Mills and horseful who should be the next captain.
48:46.70
Steffi Graf
Get get that in there get heading there.
48:54.76
charlescommins
Ah, it is a great question I Really want to do like a hosting style thing where we all pick a player and then have to give our reasons for why they should be and and then we can argue at each other. Yeah yeah, order order.
48:56.61
THE KING LIVES ON
Coiki.
48:57.40
Steffi Graf
That's a great question I've never even thought of that before.
49:03.70
Steffi Graf
Ah, but um, um.
49:08.00
Neil gerton
Yeah, now I will be phillibustering.
49:12.79
charlescommins
Ah I mean Chesy you're obviously going to go for the king.
49:16.53
THE KING LIVES ON
The King Obviously who better to take the stand than that I should be fair on a serious note with with quicky tinted glasses taken off of my face.
49:26.21
charlescommins
No I want you to be I want you to be all in on koii.
49:29.65
Steffi Graf
Um, this.
49:30.59
THE KING LIVES ON
Yeah I am but ah, but on a genuine concing I think it should be Hilton because I think there is there is a lot of experience there. But what there also is is is a man that's able to work under huge amounts of pressure because he's done it before.
49:35.12
Steffi Graf
Or is it newby.
49:35.40
charlescommins
Oh.
49:50.18
THE KING LIVES ON
And I think that even though I think the king is absolutely fantastic. He's still quite young and has not got the experience in those leagues that Hilton Hilton what Hilton brings could be potentially um, a game changer for us. So we think we need capitalizing.
50:03.78
charlescommins
Is he going to play 90 minutes every game really no. Okay Danny I mean obviously some hoskins is your man. We all know this.
50:08.65
THE KING LIVES ON
Yes, no I'm joking. No I don't know but I still think Hilton's probably your right pick.
50:09.53
Steffi Graf
Ah, don't think he is.
50:18.41
Steffi Graf
Yes, well obviously to None appearances no 3 promotions are no 3 3 promotion I don't worry bad that so when this thought where they say so-and-s so is a 15 time world. Boxing champion is what they've lost it for 14 times at already.
50:23.66
charlescommins
Ah, yeah, ah yeah, some relegations. Yeah, if.
50:26.32
Neil gerton
And also some relegations in there. But.
50:36.40
charlescommins
Ah.
50:38.27
Steffi Graf
Um, but no hey connection with the fans longevity club legends almost that testimonial where that there's it's gotta be surely come on Samuel Tobi us Captain I'm starting the campaign right now get him in get it.

51:15.48
charlescommins
Get crowded house in ah there. Yeah.
51:15.54
Neil gerton
And I would just.
51:23.89

51:30.72
charlescommins
Yes, you know do you know who I'd go for just just just for to throw in a different name. Yeah, and no and and I realize the potential for Richard hopeness here. But um.

52:05.70
Steffi Graf
Yep.
52:07.54
Neil gerton
So.
52:11.40
charlescommins
A coin toss. Yes, that's that's that's how they pick the England Cricket Captain isn't it. Ah.
52:11.43
Steffi Graf

52:55.51
charlescommins
Ah, you can't have if I can't have the desolates for last years your eyes you're not have it England for this years get out. Um, long.
53:01.00

53:05.52
Steffi Graf
I am going for a dark horse Norway norway there dark horse no netherlands on it last time under our um current manager. No.
53:12.44
Neil gerton

53:12.98
charlescommins
Ah, they a dark horse. No.
53:22.15
Steffi Graf
Yeah, yeah, Ada Hegerberg up front. She she's the one and just I think they in our group are they no group. Maybe they're not.
53:27.20
charlescommins
Baby. She's one.
53:29.87
Neil gerton
Group it.
53:33.68
charlescommins
RM are Sweden dark horses are a Sweden quite good. Okay I mean I'll go for Sweden in that case, um, don't know why they go Sweden Sweden are my answers. Yeah.
53:38.36
Steffi Graf
Sweden Sweden are usually quite good. But I put them in the dark horses category.
53:50.21
Steffi Graf
Sweden that's a good shot.
53:52.60
Neil gerton
So we kind of.
53:53.50
charlescommins
I mean I'm looking at our group at the moment is England Austria Norway and Northern Ireland I mean we've thrashed Northern Ireland haven't we fairly recently? Um, Norway was I think nor did we play Norway recently I don't know why the.
53:59.95
Steffi Graf
Yeah, if we don't go out the cree then that's a massive failure for.
54:07.44
Neil gerton
So.
54:07.89
Steffi Graf
Potentially the.
54:13.15
charlescommins
I've got feeling that we've played all of these fairly recently you know and in the last sort of year or so Austria aren't I didn't we I think we hammered Austria didn't we. And yeah, so you're right I think if we don't get out of the group that is a huge failure but there you go.
54:13.28
Steffi Graf
The Austria nowhere good with yeah.
54:20.67
Steffi Graf
You get well done.
54:27.59
Steffi Graf
Yeah, that's unlikely.
54:29.58
Neil gerton
So next question it's a cracker and it's from Matthew it's not cracker it's a question it's from Matthew Crane it's a great 1 this one right up right up my alley. Do you.
54:32.15
charlescommins
Yes.
54:36.12
charlescommins
Ah, yep.
54:43.30
charlescommins
Okay, polling.
54:49.19
Neil gerton
Have sandwich rules. But what I mean is if you're making a cheese sandwich I Personally think it's wrong with the bread and sauce are the same color so mayonnaise or salad cream shouldn't go in a white bread sandwich and brown sauce or Mar might shouldn't go in a brown bread sandwich. Firstly, do you agree with that.
54:50.25
THE KING LIVES ON
Yes.
54:53.28
charlescommins
Yeah.
55:08.42
Neil gerton
And secondly, what are your sandwich rules and.
55:08.81
charlescommins
Right? Hang up. First of all, why are you putting sauce with a cheese sandwich.
55:13.69
THE KING LIVES ON
Oh no charles come on. You have to do that You have to have some kind of source.
55:14.00
Neil gerton
And why wouldn't you put source with a cheese sandwich charles.
55:18.88
charlescommins
Would you dip your cheddar slice into some mayonnaise would would would you really write. So therefore it does stand because you you wouldn't You wouldn't go and get.
55:24.41
Steffi Graf
No.
55:25.17
Neil gerton
Yes, if yeah, if their mayonnaise was on I wouldn't not like I wouldn't go out and physically do it but but yet that argument doesn't stand. It doesn't hand it.
55:34.95
THE KING LIVES ON
It's not in a sandwich charles.
55:37.79
charlescommins
A nice bit of Pilgrim's choice out the fridge and then start dipping it into your helm and's mayonnaise.
55:39.27
THE KING LIVES ON
None you wouldn't get Pilgrim's choice that's not a good cheese. Yeah, you're not just going to get a massive fat egg and just like chgging some love home.

56:10.64
Neil gerton
Yes, we do.
56:10.74
THE KING LIVES ON
Yeah, so my but number None rules you have to go to the bakery and get proper proper decent bread right? and it has to be cut specifically. So if you're cutting it like rectangular and get out. You need to be cutting it triangular unless you're doing dippy googy eggs. Which you need to cut them in very small soldiers and you need to make sure that no, but it's bread related and then yeah, yes.
56:32.49
charlescommins
It's not a sandwich.
56:33.10
Neil gerton

56:35.89
charlescommins
Um. I don't think she reads I don't think she but know I think what Jeffrey means is that you cut it. The bread the sandwi so you know you got your your rectangular bread shape you cut it diagonally from left top left to bottom right? Please dont but yeah.
56:49.56
Neil gerton
