Caley Thistle are back, brother, and so is The Wyness Shuffle, with a Hulk Hogan-sized pod covering our summer business, the current state of the squad, a returning hero, all you’ll ever need to know about this season’s League One clubs, the usual nonsense, plus 31-plus years of ICT references, wild conjecture and mild distraction. Join us as we look forward to delivering atomic leg drops to every one of our opponents. Let’s Shuffle!
00:01:12 – Hello! We’re back, and we’re excited. Moff introduces the panel and we reveal what we are looking forward to about the season ahead.
00:05:58 – Incoming! Caley Thistle have been busy! Nine new players in at the time of recording: we discuss what each of the club’s summer signings can bring to the team.
00:35:05 – The squad. We expected to lose Remi Savage, Paul Allan and possibly Luis Longstaff, but they know a club on the up when we see one. We discuss the potential importance to the team of retaining these players and the others who have signed on again, then look at other areas that we still have to strengthen in. Is there another striker in the offing? Also, listen out at the end of this section for your opportunity to be part of TWS’s Player Sponsorship.
00:51:10 – What yi sayeen? – David Wotherspoon. The fans wanted him back, the club wanted him back and he wanted to come back, so together they made it happen. Stevie has a happy reunion with Spoony, discussing what he loves about Caley Thistle, what he can bring to the club this time around, and what he’d eat on his last night on earth.
01:20:20 – Rebranding the Stadium. In early June, Alan Savage announced that the Caledonian Stadium was set to be renamed under a three-year deal with prospective sponsors. With the new name yet to be confirmed, we discuss what we’d like our beloved ground to be called.
01:23:48 – Encyclopaedic League One Opposition Lowdown. The grounds, the teams, the managers, all you ever wanted to know about League One! With the help of supporters from (almost) all of the other League One clubs, we take a deep dive into this season’s opponents: Alloa (01:24:35), Cove Rangers (01:29:03), East Fife (01:34:02), Hamilton Accies (01:40:30), Kelty Hearts (01:50:00), Montrose (01:57:35), Peterhead (02:02:00), Queen of the South (02:08:12) and Stenhousemuir (02:14:20).
02:21:35 – Pre-season. We briefly discuss what we’ve learned from the games played so far.
02:26:10 – League Lookahead. We look forward to August’s fixtures against Kelty, Peterhead, Stenhousemuir, Montrose and Alloa. But we do not look forward to the Challenge Cup nonsense.
