¡No Pasarán!
The only pre-season analyses worth reading are those of the fans, especially in the lower leagues. So here's a good'un from the Grauniad.
The striking thing reading this is just how many squads have undergone a huge turnover in personnel. I guess this has something to do with finances because club after club, be they newly relegated or veterans of Div1, appear to have rebuilt this summer.
Using the bland mantra of stability being a good thing, you have to expect clubs such as MK Dons, Notts County and err.. us to be successful. Swindon or Crawley could cause some damage, but if we can start solidly then surely we can only improve as the team beds in.
Anyway, see what you think:
