After a few days off for the New Year holidays, JTET is back with the second episode of our club-by-club J2 season review for 2023.

This time, Jon Steele and James Taylor kick off (sorry) by discussing Ventforet Kofu (Start to 07:10), Oita Trinita (07:10 to 14:10), and Fagiano Okayama (14:10 to 20:50).

After that, we welcomed a pair of guest correspondents to the show: firstly, Martin Spivey (@bantam84 on Twitter) gave us his thoughts on Blaublitz Akita's 2023 campaign (21:20 to 29:50), and then Garry Irwin (@GarryIrwin on Twitter) looks back on Roasso Kumamoto's season (29:50 to 35:30).

To round off this installment, Jon and James returned to share their opinions on Thespa Kusatsu Gunma (35:50 to 44:00) and Fujieda MYFC (44:00 to Finish).

Thank you for all your support for JTET, and Big Pod - look out for Part 3 of our J2 season review next week!

2) What was the high point of the season?

3) What was the low point of the season?
