After about a month off, the pod returns as we welcome back Donovan who’s returned from the states after spending half of October there.Our last pod was all about Colin the Monk and his parting gift was a 0-5 defeat to Radcliffe so that’s where we start (getting the negatives out of the way first).In this episode, we also discuss Chester (a) via Wrexham, that mental Spennymoor (a) game, the Kidderminster (h) defeat and of course, that superb result at Chorley on the weekend.
