It’s the third and final instalment of UTAS on tour in Spain. On this episode Tom and Jules report live from the Preston friendly, trying and failing to stay out of the baking temperatures, chatting about the 1-0 win and reviewing their time in Murcia.

Thank you everyone for listening, it’s been brilliant to be able to bring people along for the ride who couldn’t make it and get some great insight into the club along the way.

Day two is here, and if you haven’t noticed it’s hot. Today, Tom and Jules went down to watch the U’s train in the midday heat, and then got the chance to chat to Dom Ball, Kell Watts and Pelly Ruddock. They chatted about where the success of last season came from and what to expect from the next in League One. The Neil Harris interview will be live in the morning before the last part of the daily pods live from the Preston game.

Three familiar faces are back at the Abbey this week, as the club confirm the loan signing of Gassan Ahadme and the re-signings of Shayne Lavery and Shane McLoughlin. It’s a lot to get your head round, so Tom and Jules met up in an East London beer garden for a catch-up including transfer chat, pink kits and a magnificent 30th birthday present.

247 appearances in the amber and black over two spells, capped off with a promotion. This season was the perfect way to say goodbye to Michael Morrison, a man who will go down as a certified United legend. It was an honour to have him join the pod to chat about his career, from his debut over 20 years ago right through to that afternoon at Crewe.

(Apologies for the tech issues in the intro, it’s only 30 seconds before the main stuff begins!)

The second part of our mammoth season review is here, where Jules, Jord, Jack and Tom braved a boiling hot studio to chat about every up and down of the campaign. It was far more ups than downs though, and Part Two takes us from December through to the promotion-winning end of the season, and includes the panel’s nominations for their awards for the season.

What a season that was. The numbers do all the talking, but how does a two hour review of every month of the campaign sound? That’s what UTAS are here for. Jord, Jules, Jack and Tom braved the heatwave for a long recording session in the Portland studio, looking back over the season month-by-month and handing out some awards. Part One takes us from pre-season to the end of November, just as our form starts to turn for the better.

With a season back in the third tier on the horizon, UTAS got the chance to have a sit down with CEO Alex Tunbridge and Director of Football Mark Bonner to chat about what the League Two promotion looked like behind the scenes and how they’re preparing for the challenge of League One. For Coconut Tier members, there’s an extra 20 minutes of content wher…

It’s only a few sleeps ago we confirmed promotion back to League One at Crewe, but football never stops. Just as quickly, United have released the 25/26 retained list, saying goodbye to a host of faces who were crucial in securing our instant return to the third tier. Caspell, Jules and Swindle go over the list and talk about their favourite memories of our departing players, while also casting their eye over how the squad is starting to shape up for next season.
