News and discussion as we count down to the action

See that there is a bit of discussion below the line on my use of football being back in the preamble. That it never went away especially with Euro 2025, that the league season started last weekend, etc. All points I agree with but the saying felt right to use given that this is our first matchday live of the season, which I mentioned in the first sentence in my preamble. “Football … you never left us” certainly does not have that same je nais se quois. But I digress, for who am I to not listen to the masses.
Q&A? Q&A! We have spoiled you rotten with our very first matchday live Q&A of the season, if I do say so myself. Our Midlands, south-west England and Wales football correspondent Ben Fisher will be around later today to answer some of your Football League questions. Send them in below the line or via email which you can find at the top of this blog. Go, go, go!
And, of course, the rest of the EFL continues to storm on. It was a good start for Luton in League One last weekend as Wimbledon’s Ryan Johnson became one of the first victims of the own goal this season.
