41. #221: Perfect day
26:30||Season 7, Ep. 41Podcasters assemble! For only the second time ever, all five of the podcast team managed to attend the same game (albeit we only saw Rhys from across the pitch, as he waved to us from the nice seats in the Bisley Stand). And what a lovely day we had! A few jars, some decent scran in the Indoor Market, bumped into plenty of familiar and very friendly faces, and then watched an easy stress-free 3-0 home win in the sunshine. Can it always be like this, please?Ian is on microphone duty, dutifully logging the day and keeping order - but with input along the way from yer Jamies, yer Mad Jacks and yer Eds - as well as from our youngest fan(?) and burgeoning vlogger Iwan (do give him a follow).As always, you can contact us through your social media platform of choice to give any feedback or ask any questions for future episodes.

14:19||Season 7, Ep. 39A mini pod, with Ed offering some pre-match and post-match words either side of a fine win against Gillingham - and getting some thoughts too from Ollie. Three great goals from Bobby Kamwa, an easy three points, and surely some breathing space now as we enter into spring.As always, you can contact us through your social media platform of choice to give any feedback or ask any questions for future episodes.

18:35||Season 7, Ep. 38After a short break from pod action, we're back - Jamie is in the chair, and is joined by County blogger Mark Vickery to garner their insights on defeats to Cheltenham (H) and Doncaster (a). They discuss the need for a bit more anger from this team, Kyle Jameson's many second chances, and a possible lack of leadership. With big games coming up against the likes of Gillingham, Accrington and Harrogate, how can County address their growing list of weaknesses?As always, you can contact us through your social media platform of choice to give any feedback or ask any questions for future episodes.

27:41||Season 7, Ep. 37Ed and Ollie are the men behind the mic for this one. Under the clunky title of "Responding to questions", we do a cut-and-shunt pod. In Part 1 over a pint in the Riverside Sports Bar (the home of Welsh sports fans) we consider how County responded to the questions posed by Bradford being reduced to ten men early in the first half on Saturday. Then, in Part 2, we give some snap analysis after Tuesday night's Q&A session with the Trust and with County chairman Huw Jenkins... Was a clean sheet, a point and retaining momentum in #FightbackFebrurary worth the lack of entertainment value or attacking ambition on Saturday? And what does the open meeting tell us about the club's relationship with the Dragons, the long-term plan for our academy youth, or the future of Nelson Jardim? We consider all these points and more!We'll be back in ten days' time to review the Cheltenham and Doncaster games, hopefully with a full panel.

08:51||Season 7, Ep. 36The boss is back - Rhys brings you some on-the-whistle analysis of the (lucky?) win against Carlisle. It sees County rise to the dizzy heights of 14th, having taken 13pts from their last five games. We also hear from Amber Arnie about Saturday's unexpected 3-0 away thumping of Crewe Alexandra, on what surely will be the best away day of the season.We'll be back next week with a longer-form episode taking in the Bradford game, a few other views on where County find ourselves, and also next Tuesday night's Trust Q&A.
