How was last season for Ilkeston?
WBP: Dire! Except for last ten games or so
|
LGU: Somewhere around 400, but the attendances announced often seem to bear no resemblance to the amount of people in the ground.
WBP: 400+.
Who should the Notts fans look out for on your team?
LGU: Barry Woolley, a shining light in our team last year. Chris Freestone, still class even after his trip up, and back down the leagues. Tony Hemmings signed for Alfreton this week, but I guess he'll phone the club crying this week wanting to come back and will receive another signing on fee by the weekend. Used to be a nippy winger, but last season seemed to lose his pace due to the fact that he kept his fat wallet in his shorts while playing.
WBP: Leon Kelly because of his pace and strong running and Barry Woolley a rock at the back.
What do you hope to achieve (realistically!) next season?
LGU: Promotion as champions and 5th Round of the FA Cup, but then again as we don't know who's going to be playing for us this coming season, it's a bit hard to say.
WBP: Top six finish would be nice but realistically if we are still in business it would be a bonus.

LGU: I'd be completely reckless and change our first choice kit to have white shirts.
WBP: If I were manager I would introduce a club rule that the manager cannot be sacked until he has had at least two seasons to build a team. I would book Emmylou Harris, Steve Earle and Ryan Adams to play the clubhouse and after that I would be a happy Country man and I would not give two hoots about the team because I would have fulfilled a lifelong ambition of filling the New Manor Ground.
Score prediction?
LGU: Depends what team you have out, but I'll go for a steady 0-6
WBP: Ilkeston Town 1 Notts County 4.
