While the last day went a bit rough for the dragons, the season saw the sheer dominance of Ryan Reynolds’ side. The lads will now go on to the USA tour and face Chelsea and Manchester United in friendlies. Fans would pray for a double promotion next season, but that will be a story for another day.
While fans and teams celebrate the end of a decorated season, the task isn’t all done yet. Phil Parkinson has to do a lot to make this team league-ready. Although, re-signing Ben Foster and signing a top-tier legend would make the job a bit easier. At least, that was the plan. Foster is taking his sweet time to reveal his plans, and the legend seems to be backing off from the deal.
