And finally, the answers provided by Ben:

How long have you supported Fleetwood Town?

I’ve followed Fleetwood 7 seasons now! Seen a few promotions and seen us grow and grow in League One!

Where did you finish last season?

A very solid 11th.

What do you think of your Manager?

I really like our manager Joey Barton! He’s had history but he’s learning in a new role and he’s starting to thrive. He has made mistakes but he’s starting to become such a good young manager! Hopefully, he can take us to the next step! Dare to dream we’ve won 6 promotions in 10 years and had a steady 5 years in League One Why can Barton not take us up!

Who Are The League One Managers? No.10: Joey Barton (Fleetwood Town)

What are your hopes and expectations for the 2019/20 season?

My hopes are Top 10, to be better than last year. We have a much better squad this year in Paul Coutts, Josh Morris, Danny Andrew. Very good players at this level!

One(s) to watch?

Paddy Madden! 4 goals in last 4 and over 100 EFL League Goals! He works so hard for the team as well!

Which teams you think will finish in the top six?

I think personally think Lincoln will make it into the top 6! They have decent players and such a good manager! Think Ipswich Town, Pompey, Blackpool, Peterborough United, Sunderland and Lincoln!

Which teams do you think will finish in the bottom three?

Bolton Wanderers, Southend United and AFC Wimbledon.

What are your thoughts on Lincoln City?

Really like Lincoln, good side have good ethos about them, a good manager who has promotions on his CV! Great fans electric home fans buzzing to visit the ground!

What do you think the score will be?

0-1 Fleetwood.

Random fact about your Club?

Alfie Boe is a Fleetwood Town Fan.

If you could steal one Lincoln City player for your own team, who would it be and why?

Jack Payne! Loved him since his time at Oxford. Did well at Bradford and such a good playmaker and makes things happen.

What are your proudest and most embarrassing moments as a Fleetwood Town Supporter?

Proudest beating Burton 0-1 to win at Wembley to secure promotion.

Most Embarrassing possibly losing 2-0 at home to Gillingham worst performance I’ve seen from a Fleetwood side in a long long time!

Who would you say is your most underrated player?

Ashley Eastham very solid centre back and a real leader at the back.

Do you have a Supporters Trust and what role do they play at the Club?

Yes, we do, they have monthly meetings and sponsor a player and try and have an impact with this amazing club.

Which was your favourite match involving Fleetwood Town?

Not including Wembley beating Mansfield 5-4 at home! What a game!

Which was your least favourite match involving Fleetwood Town?

Gillingham at home 17/18 season. We lost 0-2.

Do you have a Former Players Association at Fleetwood Town?

Yes, we do.

What’s the best thing about Fleetwood?

The Football Club. It’s an amazing community club.

Will this match be all about Joey Barton?

It’s not all about Barton for me it’s about the Club. And putting a good performance to be proud of.

Are the fans, in general, happy that Ched Evans is at the club?

When Ched Came back there was a real sense of belief! To beat of bigger clubs for him is massive! He thrived here last year let’s hope he can do it again.

Are the club overachieving? Is the current level sustainable?

The club is small but we are ambitious and are possibly are overachieving with our home gates however fans don’t win games and that’s been proven on the pitch in recent years!

This season’s attendances haven’t got near 3,000, and look down on last year. Any truth that Blackpool fans were showing up at Highbury during Oyston’s reign?

We haven’t had the so-called “ Big Boys of League One” Yet we’ve had smaller clubs similar to ourselves it should pick itself up when we play Portsmouth, Blackpool, Bolton and Sunderland.

Are you related to Fleetwood Mac?

No!
