We’re into the final week of our 2022-23 review (which means we can then start looking forward to the new season with the fixtures out this Thursday) and it’s all about tying up the loose ends over the next few days. Having already featured Orient, Northampton and Carlisle, today we’re rounding off the quartet of promoted sides, as Mike Harniman and Duncan Ling reflect on a superb season for Stevenage. thescarfmyfatherwore.substack.com/p/the-king-has-had-his-coronation-now-0dc

We could have found ourselves facing Bradford at Wembley last month, but Ben Barclay’s late extra-time winner broke Bantams hearts in the semi-final, and condemned the Yorkshire club to a fifth consecutive season in League Two. Tim Penfold from The Width of a Post joins us today to reflect on the last year in BD8. thescarfmyfatherwore.substack.com/p/the-king-has-had-his-coronation-now-c79

With four promotions in five seasons, the investment from Gary Neville and Co was certainly working at Salford. But their upward trajectory has stalled since reaching the Football League. After finishing 11th, 8th and 10th, the Ammies did reach the play-offs this season, but despite winning the first leg, County fought back on a memorable afternoon at Edgeley Park to deny them a trip to Wembley and a crack at League One. Today we’re joined by dannyboy from the Salford City Fans Forum to reflect on 2022-23 in M7. thescarfmyfatherwore.substack.com/p/the-king-has-had-his-coronation-now-659

The David Attenborough voice works perfect for that one. Also, have you run out of funds for them to buy a moonpig card? ... see, we are keeping up at the back!

It’s time to reflect on our Football League return with Dave Philbin. If we just focus on the context of our first season back in League Two after 11 years away, I’m in agreement with Dave when he says losing the play-off final wasn’t the end of the world. However, as we start to look at the bigger picture, with a number of clubs flexing some big financial muscles this summer, I just hope we don’t come to regret not getting out of League Two last season, when it was possibly weaker than it will be this time around. Only time will tell. thescarfmyfatherwore.substack.com/p/the-king-has-had-his-coronation-now-231

It’s time to put the lid on the 2022-23 season today. From a Salford fan who takes protein bars on away days to a Carlisle fan sorting out the feud between William and Harry with three bottles of Holsten for a fiver on Botchergate, we’ve had all sorts of responses speaking to fans from all 24 League Two teams over the last month. Our final guest in this series is Aaron Challoner, to reflect on an extremely poor season for Donny Rovers, considering some pundits were backing them to reach the play-offs. thescarfmyfatherwore.substack.com/p/the-king-has-had-his-coronation-now-de1

Our review of 2022-23 only finished yesterday, but we’re straight into the 2023-24 preview this morning. And you know what that means don’t you boys and girls? Yes, it’s time for Des Junior to mutilate one of The Beautiful South’s classic lyrics by replacing girls’ names with League Two clubs. Soz, Paul Heaton. I owe you a pint or 24. As always, when it comes to all things Wombles, Plough Lane tour guide Ray Armfield is our go-to guy. thescarfmyfatherwore.substack.com/p/the-king-has-had-his-coronation-now-e1b

Our reporter Hannah Brown (along with her County travel buddy Clare Jeffs) has been in Spain for a couple of days now, and we’ve got the first part of her Spanish diary to share with you this morning. It’s a belter! Stay tuned for further musings from Murcia over the next few days. thescarfmyfatherwore.substack.com/p/postcards-from-pinatar
