Questions please for tonights show live 7pm on Phoenix 98fm or online
Tonight's hosts Steve Nussbaum and Paul Levy with Billy Herring and their guests Dave Victor and direct from the message board, Mike Craig AKA Admin.

If one of the coaching staff was to call one of our players 'thick' in a publicly broadcast interview, would you snort and snigger like a teenage schoolboy?

Why do certain players appear to be undroppable?

A question for admin.

Well done for going on the show, excellent news. What one aspect would you change on the football side of things which could result in renewed enthusiasm from the fans?

Please only refer to 'Admin' as Admin throughout the entire show, that will be brilliant.

Too late - Gilso's already unmasked me on twitter. Not that it really matters as it's not like anyone will recognise me anyway.

Is running a football club with an interim head coach (who already stood down once) instead of an actual football manager a sustainable strategy for a League 2 club which, presumably, would like to keep its Football League status?

There is alot of angst amongst the fans base right now especially after the comments ML has made in respect to the head coach role. Does the panel feel that putting ones feet up so to speak is the correct course of action the director of football should be taking or do the panel believe he should be out there looking for a permanent replacement?

Do the panel think Gilso would be more enjoyable with a Peter Griffinesque voice instead of the throwback 1980’s wanabee Brian Moore
Also why do the OOP need to come on your show when they have their own are you struggling for guests?

Do you ever get questions to which the answer isn't already implied by the asker's wording?

Straight answer, I decided that the show would benefit from having a selection of hosts working on a rota, rather than the same person doing it every week. I asked Paul and Steve quite simply because they are good at what they do. I get told I sound like Brian Moore, Fluff bloody Freeman, Des Lynam, amongst others, sorry about that.

At least wear a balaclava when they do that post chat photo they publish (or do they only do that for the hooligan editions?)

Question - can you ever get the mikes in the studio work for the presenters AND the guests?

Admin can face the wrong way on the photo if he wishes.
And yes I am aware there was a mic prob last week, the probs the week before wasn't the mics themselves it's guests forgetting to speak directly into the mic or leaning back mid sentence, I shall endeavour to ensure it works well tonight.

What's wrong with a balaclava? Scared your audience might think it's a burqa and switch off?

Only a slight dig Andy but love the programme format nevertheless. Steve Tongue also had a problem when he did his first show.

Why do the Twitter adverts come across like this?

Hi, the station has installed a new mixer box and so long as people remember to talk into the mics (you wouldn't believe how many turn to face whoever they are talking to) then there shouldn't be a problem. (fingers crossed)

Dave Victor's on the right.

Surely that's Gilso on the far right?

Dunno - I'm on the left.

do the panel feel the club is restricted in a new head coach, by stipulating that they cant bring their own people in, and must work with the coaching staff already at the club

Would have been my question too, Comeon,although the obvious answer will be, 'no, not at all'.

What are the chances of recruiting an experienced manager after what happened to CF.
