Stopsley Utd have arranged 3 friendlies at Kingston Road.
They will play Camridge City on 5th July,Wycombe Wanderers
on the 12th and Harrogate Town on the 19th.

-----------------------------------

I recently started again with Stopsley on 05,but I found it boring to be honest,well I've been playing that game for 5 years so no surprise really,So now I'm gonna give it a go on 07,I haven't played this game anywhere near as much as 05,I think I've played about 2 seasons in the Premier League and 4 seasons with my Dusseldorf file,so the game is still new-ish to me.

Well I look forward to seeing what happens with Stopsley.

Nice results but a loss against Harrogate is unlucky considering the run you were on.

Press Conference!
The Stopsley manager held a conference to talk about
the upcoming season at Kingston Road.

The Sun - Is it good to be back with Stopsley Utd?
Woodward - Yes it's great,it took a while to sort things out but I'm very happy to bring my club back.

BBC Sport - Will it be tough starting at the bottom again with a small ground?
Woodward - Well on the pitch yes it will be,but as for us being a small club,no.

ESPN - Do you think the fans will return to the club?
Woodward - Hopefully they will,it was tough for the fans,and I think some will have moved on to supporting other teams,anyway when we were at the height of our success we were attracting a huge amount of neutral fans.

The Mirror - So do you reckon the club can make back to those successful days?
Woodward - We will give it a good go,it will be very hard,but I'm just happy we are back in business.

The Times - Do you think that you will have a struggle to keep your top players?
Woodward - We will have the same problems most clubs have,but I won't sell unless it's a good deal for the club.

Sky Sports - What can we expect in the transfer market?
Woodward - We have signed Mark Pritchard and we might make another signing but that's about it,nobody will be sold.

Daily Telegraph - What do you consider to be your strongest area of the team?
Woodward - I actually think we are quite strong right through the starting eleven.

ITV Sport - So what about your back-up players?
Woodward - I think we have some very good players,but we might struggle a bit if we have to make too many changes.

Stopsley Local - How involved do you intend to be in the day to day running of the club?
Woodward - I might turn up now and then......Come on what a silly question,I will be here everyday,this is my club I will be involved in everything.
