Pre season


Recommended Posts

Wow, that ended up a complete shambles.despite the food first half / hour. Exposed our current lack of depth.

Pray we never end up down to ten men in the Championship.

The goals we scored would not happen against most Championship teams. The goals against... eek.

(We will not defend like that when the season starts proper)

We looked good until making a massive raft of subs and being at a one man disadvantage for a while. Promising stuff going forward but shaky at the back - particularly in goal. 

I’d much rather it be that way around at this stage - we had the best defence in the league last year on every metric, so you’d hope we’ll firm the defence up before the real football starts. And there’s a new keeper joining. 

I’ve been more concerned about our ability to put the ball in the goal ahead of this season, but tonight calmed those concerns somewhat. Yates, Jackson and NML all linking up well.

Pre-season isn't totally irrelevant, is it?

We've been absolute dross in every game we've played. In what world can we expect a miraculous turn around in the next week and a half?

We weren’t dross for the majority of the game until the mass changes made on 60 mins. Then it went silly for both teams could have been 6 each

Is that 10 goals conceded in 3 games ? We knew we needed a keeper. Cashin is shockin. CBT seems to be a callow figure who has lost all confidence. At least the the attack started to look click and we bagged 3 goals. Would love a Rowett and a Chrissy Powell at this level.

We weren't exactly convincing before the changes. We've not played a team above L1 level yet and we've looked cack against all of them.

A base level of competence should be expected, but hadn't been delivered this far. Warne can't be happy.

It’s not irrelevant, never has been, but also it shouldn’t be used as the yard stick for measuring how an entire season will play out when there’s still time to improve and still time to make additions. 
As I said earlier, there’s no need for miracles, there is need for hard work and dedication.

We are still have 4/5 players to come in and a new keeper. Looked a lot more like it until the game became a playground one. 
Yes still work to do but that last 30 mins doesn’t happen if mass changes aren’t made.

All 3 of our goals were well worked & the result of decent play. All 4 of theirs were due to either Vickers & Cashin.

Hopefully we have our new keeper & Nelson in for Blackburn and Cashin can get his shocking performances out the way now.
