Just spotted this thread, was about to set one up myself. Now i've just checked who else is in our division, so I know what we're up against (honestly, I couldn't have named more than 10 of them off the top of my head). Looking forward to the new season, especially after reading some of McCall's recent interviews, hopefully I'll be getting my season ticket in the near future for the first time since we were in the Premiership (If I get the flat i'm after in Shipley it's a definite). At those prices everyone should be considering it, it's a great gesture by the club.

Roll on League 2!

What a difference it makes to have people who actually care about the club involved.

Totally agree, the whole place seems to have a major feelgood factor going on. I really hope it's reflected in attendances and in turn performances on the pitch.

I was on the official message board earlier (only out of curiosity, I don't actually use it!) and some clown has pledged NOT to buy a season ticket because he doesn't like what Mark Lawn has said about buying a seat nearer the pitch

Nothing on there surprises me!

Hey hey, I see a patern forming there!

Rotherham have signed players from great clubs such as Accrington, and Matlock Town....

Really looking forward for the season to start...honest!

I can understand why you should be checking the League 2 thread...

My second team Accrington Stanley are in this division so I like to keep tabs on the most famous for not being famous team in the world.

Well Leeds certainly aren't famous anymore....

Now, what is that reminding me of?

God knows.

Not only from the likes of Man United, Arsenal, Citeh, Donny, Bradford, Preston, Bolton are just a few that come to mind that have been on over the past month, I know it is more but I just can't be d to look as they all get deleted anyway.

Well we've missed out on Spencer Weir-Daley who has joined Notts County instead.

Can't say I'm too bothered about that, but I'm getting a bit wary about the fact we only have 7 players and we haven't signed anyone yet!

COME ON YOU MORECAMBE!!!!!!!!!!!!

Weir-Daley would have been a great player for us in league 2 i think not getting him back is a loss for us.

How will the Shrews cope after losing the Play-Off finals and a move to their new stadium New Meadow, who knows you decide!

Apparently our first two new signings will be announced today as Barry Conlon and Peter Thorne.

If I'm right Conlon is a big battering ram type journeyman striker that has his uses at this level, and Thorne was always a decent enough player at a higher level a few years back so they sound reasonable enough additions.

Surprisingly enough, we're also looking at a young central midfielder released by Everton. Why don't we just announce Everton as our parent club and have done with it

Things are looking pretty sweet for Chester.

The new manager is making the right noises and we've enjoyed our best pre-season recruitment campaign for several years.

We've added John Murphy from Blackpool/Macc Town, Kevin Ellison and Gavin Ward from Tranmere, Richie Partridge from Rotherham and Nathan Lowndes from Vale. Add to this the return of Ashley Westwood from a loan spell at Swindon and things look good.

It'll all end in tears no doubt!

When you've hardly got a playing squad to speak of, you have to start somewhere. They'll add some experience up front without pulling up any trees at that level I'd imagine.

I'm finding the reaction of some of our fans quite amusing, they seemed to be think we'd be signing the likes of Robbie Fowler and Teddy Sheringham

We've signed some bloke from Walsall and some bloke from Hereford. Welcome to League 2!

Erm, I don't mean to spoil your self club ego, but Bradford City have never been able to attract the likes of Robbie Fowler or Teddy Sheringham, even when you were in the Premiership.

That was kinda the point he was making.

I got the point that other City fans think they are a big club and can buy players who are bigger than the club.
