We managed to wrangle all five podders for our big season preview episode. Jack was obviously late, and Jamie sent in pre-recorded bits from his Finnish sauna holiday - but their additions burnished contributions from Ian, Rhys and Ed. Together, the panel pulled together a comprehensive guide, even for those who might have zoned out a bit over the summer. The episode covers (timings approximate):

• 1 min: Panel intro and Jamie's simple guide to the summer coaching changes and new signings.
• 7 mins: Our 'players to watch' from the new intake.
• 13 mins: What have we learned from the pre-season games? And what do we make of Nelson Jardim so far?
• 21 mins: This season's new kits!
• 23 mins: Improved communications from the new NCAFC Supporters' Trust.
• 25 mins: Local 'club in focus' discussion - if you're involved with a women's team in Gwent and want to feature, drop us a line!
• 28 mins: Your questions answered, including "Which cheese best describes our pre-season performances?", and "What is Plan B?"
• 45 mins: Predictions - our panel put their reputations on the line to guess where County will finish the season.
• 53 mins: Shoutouts and beefs from our panel, and outro.

As always, you can contact the pod via Twitter, Facebook or LinkedIn. If you like what we do and want to help us make more of it, you can buy a sticker pack. And you should also check out what Tinty & The Bucket Hats are up to; we thank them for continuing to let us use Discoland as our theme.

We'll hopefully be back with an Ian Street match diary from Cheltenham on the opening day of the season. Until then, be good to each other and Keep It County.
