Aye.
Let's hope Paul Williams isn't playing... |

The first competitive games will be before League 2 starts, as the Carabao Cup first round is on the weekend of Saturday 8th August.
However, if Crystal Palace win the Europa Conference League next week, us and York (along with Tranmere and Crawley) will have to take part in preliminary round ties in order to make the numbers balance as the Carabao Cup progresses.
This is because a Palace win means nine English clubs will be in European competition next season, which has a knock-on effect on the Carabao Cup as they don't enter until round three.
This affected Oldham and Barnet last year.
Those ties will be before the first round, so potentially on Saturday 1st August, or maybe Tuesday 4th August.
If Palace lose in next week's final, I don't think the preliminary round is needed as there will be one less team in Europe, meaning the numbers will work without need for a preliminary round.
It's all explained here: |

Just found another one - 101 goals scored this season in all competitions.
This is only the third time we have passed 100 goals and for the first time since 1926/27.
Admittedly, there are more competitions and opportunities now. |

There's also an opening line to the match report which says Dale have rejoined the EFL 92.
Really? |

Accrington??
Grimsby, Chesterfield, Notts County (play offs permitting), Crewe, Shrewsbury, York, Port Vale, etc, would all bring more support than Accrington. |
