One for @LutonTown fans. I spoke to @TheloAasgaard about how playing alongside @ErlingHaaland and Martin Odegaard on his Norway debut can now benefit the Hatters in their bid for Championship survival. Full story in @TheLeaguePaper - shops now and always great value for £2.20. https://t.co/X5ZJfUF05b

One for @ColU_Official fans. The club’s charge up the table might have halted with back-to-back defeats but I spoke to @hazanderson10 who hopes history can repeat itself after last-gasp promotion heroics with @Official_BRFC three seasons ago. Full story in @TheLeaguePaper. #ColU https://t.co/4izuw2kwOr
