Hello and welcome to this evening’s edition of The Valiant for Thursday December 7.

We’ve got news from Andy Crosby’s press conference ahead of Saturday’s Exeter game plus plenty of other news, analysis, opinion, your views, nostalgia and more.

Also, just to let you know, I’ll be bringing out a newsletter special tomorrow featuring an interview with the club’s director of football David Flitcroft.

We did that late this afternoon and thanks to him for answering all my questions for an in-depth question-and-answer feature.

That will be out tomorrow so it can be a stand-alone long read rather than be mixed up with all tonight’s news. Also, that gives me a chance to write it up!

In the meantime, please read on for tonight’s edition of The Valiant in full.
