Club: Accrington Stanley

Nickname: Stanley/Accy

Ground: The Fraser Eagle Stadium

Capacity: 5,057

Manager: John Coleman

In: Andy Todd (Burton Albion), Sean Doherty (Port Vale), Julian N'da (Rouen FC).

Out: Steve Jagielka (released), Danny Alcock, Mark Boyd (Southport)

Chances: Stanley took the Conference by storm last season to win a place in the Football League. Although they face a step up in quality in League Two the side have formed a winning habit under John Coleman and will do more than enough to stay up if they can carry that confidence into this campaign.

Club: Barnet

Nickname: The Bees

Ground: Underhill Stadium

Capacity: 4,800

Manager: Paul Fairclough

In: Lee Harrison (Peterborough), Paolo Vernazza (Rotherham), Nicky Nicolau (Swindon)

Out: Simon Clist, Damian Batt, Ben Strevens, Lee Roache, Dwane Lee, Ben Bowditch, Louie Soares, Luke Hickie (all released), Stev Angus (Torquay)

Chances: The London club looked like relegation candidates at various points throughout last season and with more players going out the door than arriving, Paul Fairclough could have a difficult task keeping them away from the bottom this time around. Survival again looks the Bees' most realistic target and one Fairclough will have to work hard to realise.

Club: Boston United

Nickname: The Pilgrims

Ground: York Street

Capacity: 6,643

Manager: Steve Evans

In: Mark Albrighton (Doncaster), Tim Ryan (Peterborough), Francis Green (Lincoln), Anthony Elding (Stevenage), David Farrell (Peterborough), Andy Marriott (Torquay), Paul Tait (Rochdale), Richie Ryan (Scunthorpe)

Out: Alan White, Austin McCann, Lawrie Dudfield (all Notts County), Steve Melton, Danny Thomas (all released)

Chances: Boston finished just five points shy of a play-off spot last season and hopes will be high among supporters that the summer additions to Steve Evans' squad can help them bridge that gap this time around. Nevertheless maintaining last season`s performance would be a respectable achievement in itself.

Club: Bristol Rovers

Nickname: The Pirates/The Gas

Ground: Memorial Stadium

Capacity: 11,626

Manager: Paul Trollope

In: Ryan Green (Hereford), Andy Sandell (Bath), Ollie Barnes (Bristol City), Steve Phillips (Bristol City)

Out: Christian Edwards (retired), Jamie Forrester (Lincoln), Ben Wiltshire, Martin Horsell, Jon Bass, Mark Preece, Matt Thorne (all released)

Chances: Rovers finished last season in a comfortable, if unremarkable, mid-table slot and will be looking to use that as a platform for a promotion tilt this time. In Paul Trollope they have an enthusiastic and original coach and the seasoned Lennie Lawrence is also on hand. With no big-name signings as of yet it may require some of the existing squad to step up if those aspirations are to realised.

Club: Bury

Nickname: The Shakers

Ground: Gigg Lane

Capacity: 11,840

Manager: Chris Casper

In: Andy Bishop (York City), Richie Baker (Preston), Alan Fettis (Macclesfield), Marc Goodfellow (Grimsby)

Out: Neil Edwards, Craig Dootson, Jon Newby, Allan Smart, Steve Burke, Russell Hitchen, Vassos Theophanous (all released)

Chances: The Shakers endured a tough campaign last year and ended up finishing closer to a place in the Conference than they would have hoped. Chris Casper is a well-respected young coach whose talents will be tested in what could be another hard year at Gigg Lane. Casper has missed out on a series of transfer targets this summer and will be hoping those failures do not prove too costly when the action begins.

Club: Chester City

Nickname: The Blues/City

Ground: Saunders Honda Stadium

Capacity: 6,012

Manager: Mark Wright

In: John Danby (Kidderminster), Glenn Cronin (Exeter), Ashley Westwood (Northampton), Paul Linwood (Tranmere), Simon Marples (Doncaster), Phil Bolland (Peterborough), Dean Bennett (Wrexham), Jon Walters (Wrexham), Kevin Sandwith (Macclesfield), Drewe Broughton (Rushden & Diamonds), Jermaine McSporran (Doncaster), Graham Allen (Rushden & Diamonds), Jamie Hand (Watford)

Out: Ben Davies (Shrewsbury), Paul Tait (Boston), Wayne Brown (Hereford), Carl Regan (Macclesfield), Tom Curtis (Notts County), Chris McKenzie (Shrewsbury), Ryan Brookfield, Luke Dimech, Abdou El Kholti, Stuart Drummond, Scott Harrison, Craig McNiven, Craig Dove, Justin Walker (all released)

Chances: Mark Wright will be eyeing a much improved finishing position after the club put in a strong end to season under his stewardship. When Wright was appointed the Blues were in deep trouble, but the kind of form that saw them avoid the drop with ease could be enough to make them surprise play-off candidates this time around, and with wholesale changes in the playing staff, Wright has a clean slate to begin the season with.

Club: Darlington

Nickname: The Quakers

Ground: 96.6 TFM Darlington Arena

Capacity: 25,000

Manager: David Hodgson

In: Gaetano Giallanza (unattached), Patrick Collins (Sheffield Wednesday), Martin Smith (Northampton), Michael Cummins (Port Vale), Barry Conlon (Barnsley).

Out: David McGurk (York), Matt Clarke (Bradford), Ryan Valentine (Wrexham), Joe Kendrick (released), Matty Appleby (released), Adrian Webster (released), Akpo Sodje (Port Vale), Guy Bates (released), Jonjo Dickman (released)

Chances: Having missed out on the play-off places by just three points and one league placing in 2005/06, David Hodgson's men will rightly see themselves as one of the favourites to challenge for honours again this season. Indifferent away form cost them points last year, a problem they will be looking to resolve.

Ticket prices: Adults é16, Concessions é5-é11



Club: Grimsby Town

Nickname: The Mariners

Ground: Blundell Park

Capacity: 9,546

Manager: Graham Rodger

In: Peter Beagrie (Scunthorpe), Gary Harkins (Blackburn), Phil Barnes (Sheffield United), Isaiah Rankin (Brentford).

Out: Marc Goodfellow (Bury), Steve Mildenhall (released), Jean-Paul Kamudimba Kalala (released), Rob Jones (Hibs undisclosed), John Lukic (released), Glen Downey (released), Jermaine Palmer (released), Thomas Pinault (Brentford)

Chances: The Mariners finished fourth last time out but, like so many before them, failed to make that supremacy count in the play-offs. Popular manager Russell Slade has departed and the standards are high for Graham Rodger. In his favour are a talented squad capable of repeating their previous year`s performance.

Ticket prices: Adults é15-é17, Concessions é7-é11



Club: Hartlepool United

Nickname: Pools

Ground: Victoria Park

Capacity: 7,629

Manager: Danny Wilson

In:

Out: Chris Llewellyn (Wrexham), Darren Craddock (York), Neil Wilkinson, Steven Istead, Jack Wilkinson, Hugh Robertson, James Winter, Andy Appleby (all released)

Chances: Relegation on the final day of the season shook the Victoria Park faithful hard but Danny Wilson, who suffered a relegation of his own with MK Dons, has high hopes for a swift return to the third tier. Although recruitment has been slow for the club, the feeling remains that the nucleus of the squad who fell at the last hurdle in 2005/06 are good enough to reverse that result.

Ticket prices: Adults é16-é18, Concessions é6-é9



Club: Hereford United

Nickname: The Bulls

Ground: Edgar Street

Capacity: 8,843

Manager: Graham Turner

In: Richard Rose (Gillingham), Jon Wallis (Gillingham), Tim Sills (Oxford), Glyn Thompson (Shrewsbury), Gareth Sheldon (Kidderminster), Wayne Brown (Chester), Phillip Gulliver (Rushden & Diamonds)

Out: Craig Stanley, Adam Stansfield, Daniel Carey-Bertram, Ryan Green, Jamie Pitman, Stacy Coldicott, Tony James, Guy Ipoua (all released)

Chances: Several members of the Bulls side that battled to promotion last season have already made their exit from Edgar Street and it will be a new-look side that tackles League Two football this year. Graham Turner has signed a handful of players with experience in this division and will be looking to their know-how to steer a path to League Two survival.

Ticket prices: Adults é13-é15, Concessions é9-é12



Club: Lincoln City

Nickname: The Red Imps

Ground: Sincil Bank

Capacity: 10,059

Head Coach: John Schofield

In: Jamie Forrester (Bristol Rovers), Adie Moses (Crewe), Mark Stallard (Shrewsbury), Ryan Semple (Peterborough)

Out: Francis Green (Boston), Jamie McCombe (Bristol City), Simon Yeo (Peterborough), Gareth McAuley (Leicester), Marvin Robinson (Macclesfield), Jude Stirling (Peterborough), Simon Yeo (Peterborough), Steve Robinson, Chris Gordon, Matt Bloomer, Derek Asamoah (all released)

Chances: With four consecutive failed attempts at the play-offs under their belts there is little doubt that the Imps know how to engineer a top-seven finish. The task facing new coach John Schofield is to guide the team one step further and deliver League One football in 2007/08.

Ticket prices: Adult é10, Concessions é5



Club: Macclesfield Town

Nickname: The Silkmen

Ground: Moss Rose

Capacity: 6,141

Manager: Brian Horton

In: Jonny Brain (Port Vale), Tommy Lee (Manchester United), Carl Regan (Chester), Marvin Robinson (Lincoln City), Colin Heath (Chesterfield), Alan Navarro (Accrington), Matty McNeil (Hyde)

Out: Alan Fettis (Bury), Danny Whitaker (Port Vale), Paul Harsley (Port Vale), Mark Bailey, Kevin Sandwith, Kevin Townson, Michael Briscoe, Neil Morgan, Tim Deasy, Clyde Wijnhard

Chances: The Silkmen have lost plenty of experience this summer with the likes of Alan Fettis, Clyde Wijnhard and player-of-the-year Danny Whitaker all heading for the exit door. Brian Horton looks likely to put his faith in younger players this year and despite finishing 17th last term the former Manchester City boss has openly targeted a top-seven finish.

Ticket prices: é10-é13, Concessions é5-é7



Club: Mansfield Town

Nickname: The Stags

Ground: Field Mill

Capacity: 9,366

Manager: Peter Shirtliff

In: Matt Hamshaw (Stockport County), John Mullins (Reading), Carl Muggleton (Chesterfield)

Out: Kevin Pressman (retired), Jason Talbot (Port Vale), Adam Rundle (Rochdale), Rhys Day (Aldershot), Gus Uhlenbeek, Fraser McLachlan, Kyle Jacobs, Allan Russell (all released)

Chances: Despite a relatively quiet time in the transfer market Peter Shirtliff will be pleased with his summer`s work having agreed extensions with the likes of Jon-Olav Hjelde and Gareth Jelleyman and brought in the highly-rated Hamshaw. The former Stockport winger will be a key player for the Stags, who beat off a host of other clubs to secure his signature. A top-10 finish is the target.

Ticket prices: Adults é15-é16, Concessions é7-é11



Club: MK Dons

Nickname: The Dons

Ground: National Hockey Stadium

Capacity: 8,786

Manager: Martin Allen

In: Jon-Paul McGovern (Sheffield Wednesday), Drissa Diallo (Sheffield Wednesday), Sean O'Hanlon (Swindon Town), Joe Tillen (Chelsea), Jamie Smith (Bristol City), John Hastings (Tooting & Mitcham)

Out: Malvin Kamara, Nick McKoy (both Cardiff)

Chances: MK Dons are in desperate need for a good season having had little to celebrate for several years. With the highly-rated former Brentford coach Martin Allen now at the helm and players with the pedigree of Jon-Paul McGovern and Drissa Diallo at the club, this campaign could be the one fans have been waiting for. Allen will need time to shake off some of the dark clouds that have gathered in recent times but he will have half an eye on winning promotion.

Ticket prices: Adults é10-20, Juniors é5-15



Club: Notts County

Nickname: The Magpies

Ground: Meadow Lane

Capacity: 20,300

Manager: Steve Thompson

In: Saul Deeney (Burton Albion), Dan Gleeson (Notts County), Tom Curtis (Chester), Junior Mendes (Huddersfield), Tcham N'Toya (Chesterfield), Austin McCann (Boston), Gary Silk (Portsmouth), Stephen Hunt (Colchester), Alan White (Boston), Jason Lee (Northampton), Matt Somner (Aldershot), Lawrie Dudfield (Boston), Ian Ross (Sheffield United)

Out: Steve Palmer, Steve Scoffham, Lewis McMahon, Emmet Friars (all released), Julien Baudet (Crewe), Chris Palmer (Wycombe)

Chances: New manager Steve Thompson has brought in a fleet of new players since taking the Meadow Lane helm. He will need those players to settle in quickly if his side are to cast off the problems of last season where they avoided relegation by the narrowest of margins. But with Howard Wilkinson also on board, Thompson has a well-travelled advisor.

Ticket prices: Adults é16-é18, Concessions é5-é11



Club: Peterborough United

Nickname: Posh

Ground: London Road

Capacity: 15,460

Manager: Keith Alexander

In: Richard Butcher (Oldham), Justin Richards (Woking), Jude Stirling (Lincoln), Simon Yeo (Lincoln), Guy Branston (Oldham)

Out: Peter Kennedy, Lee Harrison (both released), Dave Farrell (Boston), Richard Logan (Weymouth), Sean St Ledger (Preston, undisclosed), Alan Haine (Huntington), Ryan Semple (Lincoln), Tim Ryan (Boston)

Chances: The managerial problems of last season are now behind the club with former Lincoln boss Keith Alexander installed on a permanent basis. He has been rocked by the departure of inspirational defender Sean St Ledger but Alexander has a fine record in League Two and will be looking to continue his happy knack of reaching the play-offs.

Ticket prices: Adults é13-18, Concessions é5-é8



Club: Rochdale

Nickname: The Dale

Ground: Spotland

Capacity: 10,199

Manager: Steve Parkin

In: Adam Rundle (Mansfield)

Out: Neil Briscoe, Lee Cartwright, Scott Warner, Ben Kitchen, Blair Sturrock, Alan Goodall, Tommy Jaszczun, Tony Gallimore (all released), Gareth Griffiths (retired)

Chances: Manager Steve Parkin has struggled to attract his number one targets to the club and with the likes of Scott Warner, Blair Sturrock and the retiring Gareth Griffiths all gone this promises to be a season of transition at Spotland. Plenty of youngsters should see first-team action and consolidating their previous finish of 14th would be acceptable.

Ticket prices: Adults é11-15, Concessions é7-é9



Club: Shrewsbury Town

Nickname: Shrews

Ground: Gay Meadow

Capacity: 8,000

Manager: Gary Peters

In: Ryan Esson (Aberdeen), Dave Williams (Yeovil), Ben Davies (Chester), Chris McKenzie (Chester), Danny Hall (Oldham).

Out: Joe Hart (Manchester City), Stuart Whitehead (released), Mark Stallard (Lincoln)

Chances: Shrewsbury will be eager to win promotion in what is set to be their final season at Gay Meadow. Gary Peters has laid the foundations for success with the acquisition of some experienced heads in pre-season and the appointment of former Tranmere head coach John McMahon as his new assistant. A good shout for the play-offs.

Ticket prices: Adults é13-é18, Concessions é8-é12



Club: Stockport County

Nickname: The Hatters

Ground: Edgeley Park

Capacity: 10,799

Manager: Jim Gannon

In: Michael Rose (Yeovil), Tony Dinning (Port Vale)

Out: Matt Hamshaw (Mansfield), Ross Greenwood (York), Danny Boshell, David Beharall, Harpal Singh, Mickael Wolski, Zeke Tomlinson, Jamie Kay

Chances: Finishing one place above the relegation spots was a success of sorts for the Hatters after a troubled campaign but a higher finish is imperative if the club are to move forward under Gannon, who joined the club part-way through the season. He will be looking for a mid-table finish in his first full season at the club but will need greater support from the players who under-performed last time around.

Ticket prices: Adults é16-é18, Concessions é5-é11



Club: Swindon Town

Nickname: The Robins

Ground: The County Ground

Capacity: 15,528

Manager: Dennis Wise

In: Andy Monkhouse (Rotherham), Jamie Vincent (Yeovil), Ady Williams (Coventry), Fola Onibuje (Cambridge), Curtis Weston (Millwall), Phil Smith (Crawley)

Out: Rhys Evans (Blackpool), Jamie Cureton (Colchester), Matt Bulman, Kyle Lapham, Kris Taylor, Steve Jenkins, Paul Smith, Stefani Miglioranzi (all released), Sean O'Hanlon (MK Dons)

Chances: With a high-profile new management team of Dennis Wise and Gus Poyet fans will expect their side to have the briefest of stays in the bottom flight. Wise is vastly experienced in the game and will see the job as a big opportunity to impress off the field. With some handy signings already confirmed, the Robins will be among the favourites.

Ticket prices: Adults é15-20, Concessions é4-18



Club: Torquay United

Nickname: The Gulls

Ground: Plainmoor

Capacity: 6,104

Manager: Ian Atkins

In: Lee Andrews (Carlisle), Steven Reed (Yeovil), Jamie Ward (Aston Villa), Micky Evans (Plymouth), Lee Thorpe (Swansea), Lee Mansell (Oxford), Stev Angus (Barnet)

Out: Tony Bedeau (Walsall), Jo Kuffour (Brentford), Andy Marriott, James Sharp, Alan Connell, Anthony Lloyd, Morike Sako, Alex Lawless, Richard Hancox, Paul Robinson, Brian McGlinchey, James Bitner, Liam Coleman (all released)

Chances: Former Carlisle and Northampton boss Ian Atkins inspired the Gulls to a remarkable escape from relegation towards the end of last term. Although there will be lingering concerns over the depth of his playing squad, his impact has already been tangible at Plainmoor and he will be hopeful of avoiding a relegation scrap this time around.

Ticket prices: é14-é15, Concessions é5-é12

Ground: Bescot Stadium

Capacity: 11,300

Manager: Richard Money

In: Clayton Ince (Coventry), Michael Dobson (Brentford), Martin Butler (Rotherham), Tony Bedeau (Torquay), Hector Sam (Port Vale)

Out: Daryl Taylor (Bournemouth), Michael Standing, Simon Osborn, Andy Oakes, Taiwo Atieno, Dean Coleman (all released)

Chances: Everybody associated with the club were distraught after propping up League One last season but new boss Richard Money has had time to settle into his role and has set his sights firmly on lifting the League Two title this year. Money has already signalled his intention to improve fitness levels at the club and with a squad that has plenty to prove after last year, expect them to go close.

Ticket prices: Adults é14-é18, Concessions é10-é12

Nickname: The Dragons

Ground: Racecourse Ground

Capacity: 15,500

Manager: Denis Smith

In: Chris Llewellyn (Hartlepool), Neil Roberts (Doncaster), Steve Evans (TNS), Ryan Valentine (Darlington), Juan Ugarte (Crewe)

Out: Jon Walters (Chester), Andy Holt (Northampton), Dean Bennett, Jim Whitley, Dave Bayliss, Alex Smith (all released)

Chances: Denis Smith has put his faith in a handful of familiar favourites with Ugarte, Llewellyn and Roberts all returning to their old stamping ground this season. Smith is counting on those players to bring a new dimension to a squad whose hopes of a play-off place failed to materialise last year. A top-seven finish looks beyond them once again, though, and a year of consolidation would be satisfactory.

Ticket prices: Adults é14-é17, Concessions é5-é10



Club: Wycombe Wanderers

Nickname: The Chairboys

Ground: Adams Park

Capacity: 10,000

Manager: Paul Lambert

In: Chris Palmer (Notts County), Sam Stockley (Colchester), Anthony Grant (Chelsea)

Out: Roger Johnson (Cardiff), Clint Easton (Gillingham), Joe Burnell (Northampton), Charlie Griffin (Forest Green), Rob Lee, Danny Senda (both released)

Chances: Missing out on promotion last year was a cruel blow for a side who played some of the best football in the division for large parts of the season. The departure of John Gorman and arrival of former Scotland international Paul Lambert means change at Adams Park but Wycombe should put in a strong challenge again.
