How is Bromley preparing for League One?
Arvoisat oppilaat! Luku vuosi on nyt taputeltu ja haluan erityisesti onnitella sinua, joka nostit arvosanojasi juuri tarvittavan määrän. Tai pääsit sittenki matikasta läpi. Tai ehkä et, mutta tärkeintä on, että yritit. Onnea kaikille ja ihanaa kesää! 72 Plus, the EFL podcast with Aaron Paul and Joby McEnuff.
Hello everybody, welcome along to 72 Plus, the home of the EFL from Five Live Sport on the Football Daily as we come to the conclusion of another remarkable EFL season.
What challenges did Hull City face during their promotion?
Hull City, Bolton Wanderers and Notts County all victorious in the playoffs at a magical weekend at Wembley. The final ball has been kicked and now it's time for the final word on the Football League in 2025-26.
How did Spygate impact Hull City this season?
As ever, joining me and ever present, You're not really an ever-present this season, but you know what I mean. Joby McEnough is with us. How are you, Jobes?
What do you mean I'm not an ever-present, mate?
You've missed loads of shows.
Oh, come on. You can't be giving me that.
What does the summer look like for Hull City?
You know me.
I don't miss them. I'm here, wherever the weather.
What does Middlesbrough's Wembley curse mean for them?
It's like the last pod of the season, basically, Sam. I'm a part-timer.
You're not a part-timer. It's not an ever-present. I've had fitness issues in places.
What insights did Steven Schumacher share about Bolton?
It's the age, mate. It's the age. Little niggles at this age, you know what I mean? Great to be with you. One man who's been a stellar signing for us on 72 Plus is the Bromley manager, now League One Bromley manager, Andy Woodman. Woody, how are you? Really good, thanks. Really good.
Why is VAR controversial in the play-off finals?
A little break? A little break, but not so much as a break. The phone don't stop now, does it? It's non-stop. Players, agents, all sorts going on. How's that all going? How's prep for League One going? Slow, because we're last pick in everyone's eyes. And the season hasn't really finished still until now. So you're trying to touch base with a few agents and a few players, but they're just testing you out. And it is a long summer now of trying to get every player in the door. For Bromley, we need to have six or seven. How many done? None, none at the moment. How many near? None. So I'm really on top of things at the moment. We ought to get them all in by the first week of July. I knew you'd ask me, that's why I didn't say anything.
We've got a couple bubbling away at the moment, but it's too early. It's really too early. They'll go to town, their agents and all other sort of opportunities first before they come back to us. agents hit him up andy.woodman at bromleyfc.co.uk also with us is Dean Holden the whole city assistant head coach we're going to come to you in a moment so I just want to say congratulations first off what a way to win a playoff final right at the death incredible Seen it on the TV over the years and when you're part of it. Joby, have you cooled down yet? How warm was it at Wembley on Saturday? Ridiculous, especially in the blazer, I've got to say. But then the managers had a bash as well. I'm thinking, boys, you've got to get those jackets off, man.
To be fair, it was like, who's going to win? Who's going to keep the jacket on the longest? It was sort of like a battle of wills and they've both absolutely gone through it. I think it would have come off at extra time, which everyone was thinking, and then, bosh, McBurney steps up, there you go, and you guys are wheeling away. So, yeah, what a dramatic way to to finish tonight everybody was dreading extra time weren't they with that heat as well so yeah we were happy to win it in the 94th minute best way to do it how's the season been you had fun Oh, I've loved every minute of it. First of all, Serge and his staff have come over from Croatia, so you've got to establish a relationship with them guys.
I've obviously come in through the club, really, to guide them and try to help them with the beauty of the Championship and everything that that entails. But you can't just manufacture that relationship. That trust element takes time to grow and you've got to graft away. And show the manager that you're worthy of being part of his staff.
