Cresta and Dan go over the 2024 season including the controversial matches vs Doncaster and Halifax, his take on raiders transfer business so far and is Stack retiring or is another Cumbrian club making a side play for his services?

Reading between the lines Stack has an offer from Workington & Barrow and is leaning towards a swansong with Town. Eluded Gillam has a 2 month trial at Toulouse. He never said if unsuccessful whether there was room for him in the  budget to comeback? Couple of transfers incoming but wasn't pressed on position also you didn't ask if duel reg was continuing next year or not (unless i missed it, if so what was the answer?).

@Raider91 I think many can read between the lines but Paul won't discuss certain aspects until they are official. Contractual reasons etc. 

We didn't press so much on 2025 season, transfers & dual reg, as that'll will be in a few weeks once training has started again. This was more of a 2024 review with a few snippets into next season 

Hope you enjoy the podcast tho 🙂

We do enjoy the podcast, particularly Jordan having his pants pulled down more often than his Mrs ever has 😂

Just to follow on from raider91 ,maybe the same effort should have been used to press cresta as you use to try and sell your Aldi electricity 

I feel for those customers whose meters are spinning faster than a helicopter blade on LSD ,and who are now having to use two cups and a length of string as a landline ,and have a Tonka toy for a router 😂

Great interview by Becca with Emily ,she spoke very well ,great player,club servant and extremely easy on the eye 😂

Keep up the great work all 😘

Some interesting points made and good discussion, rather than add any points I'd just like to make a few observations after watching 

1- I was expecting Dan to burst into advertising mode because he vaped that much I was expecting him to unveil UWs new initiative ,the electric blue vape ,buy one for the price of 3 

2- Jordan has a lovely floral arrangement above his head ,hope that's the Mrs work 

3- Becca looked like she was broadcasting from a pre pubescent boys  bedroom ,stacked with toy cars and probably a special sock under the bed  for his Katy Perry posters 

4- the more I see Andy I'm convinced he's morphing into an American big game hunter wandering the the hills of Arkansas YEEHAW 

Great work as usual 👋👋👋
