Diary
Your day-by-day glance at the going ons at and around Town.
Sunday 30 June
Robert Taylor will not be offered a contract by Town.
Saturday 29 June
Neil Woods commits five young players to scholarships at the club.
Peter Furneaus offers manager Paul Groves and his assistant Graham Rodger new deals.
Thursday 27 June
Super Clive Mendonca has hung up his boots and is "moving north" because of family commitments.
Tuesday 25 June
Young 'uns Iain Ward and Chris Bolder sign one year deals.
Thursday 20 June
Town are fielding a reserve team next season after cost-cutting measures were discussed.
Tuesday 18 June
"We did not feel that we were getting enough players out of the scheme to justify the effort and money being put into it." So speaks Peter Furneaux as the club look to overhaul the youth set-up. Paul Groves and Graham Rodger are going to take a more hands-on approach and the club is appealing to local businesses to help fund the club's scheme.
Saturday 15 June
David Smith has signed for Swansea.
Friday 14 June
The fixtures are announced. Town start off away on Saturday 10 August at Norwich City. The following Tuesday Town entertain Wimbledon, followed by Derby County on Saturday 17 August. Let's hope John Gregory doesn't bring his guitar.
Monday 10 June
Football league chairmen voted to relax loan regulations. For the forthcoming season clubs are allowed to take 10 loanees over the course of the season. Clubs will be allowed to have four long-term loans and four short-term loans simultaneously. Up to five loanees can be named in a matchday squad.
Also agreed was that for the first time two teams will be relegated to the conference from division three with two being promoted to replace them.
Thursday 6 June
I've just realised Zhang Enhua is in China's World Cup squad. When was the last time a Town player, current or ex, took part in the World's Greatest Sporting Event?
Wednesday 5 June
The club sacks eight coaches from the school of excellence.
Saturday 1 June
Ian Knight, Town's director of youth, has not had his contract renewed by the club due to uncertainties over future financial income.
