It's been a while, but we're finally back with a post-season news round-up - and there's plenty to cover in this episode.

The big news of course was the confirmation that Mark Hughes would remain in the hotseat for United's first season at National League level in 20 years - can he build on the decent home-form at the end of the campaign and get United back to the EFL at the first attempt?

Lots of topics discussed in this episode, including:

🤝 Sparky stays on as boss

🧑‍💼 New Director of Football Operations appointed

📃 Retained List Confirmed

🔵 Ex-Blues Round-Up

United brought their current spell in the EFL to an end last weekend with a valiant 2-2 draw against Salford City - a result that ruined the Ammies hopes of a play-off place. A solid end to a fairly wretched campaign for the Blues - with non-league football on the horizon for next season, what lies next for the club?

In this episode of the Brunton Bugle, we chat about the final day draw and discuss some of the news that has come out of the club this week, as we await news on Mark Hughes' future and the retained list. Lots discussed including:

All roads lead to Truro next season, as United's relegation to the National League is confirmed by defeat at Cheltenham. A miserable campaign ending on a damp squib after just the slightest ray of hope in the last few weeks.

In this episode of the Brunton Bugle, we discuss the 3-2 loss to the Robins, some initial reaction to relegation and look ahead to a fairly pointless final day of the season against Salford City at home - lots discussed including...

😭 Cheltenham defeat
