Re: New season?
First competitive game together, playing on the pitch for the first time, playing in the ground as a home player for the first time, in front of a crowd that in some cases was 3 or 4 times the size they're used to, I just thought the occasion got to them, we've seen them all perform better in the pre season, we know their pedigree, give it a little time.

Re: New season?
Everyone knew that was coming I'm surprised 6000 tuned up but we always do get a good crowd first day but this time we were not prepared. We struggled along through preseason and never really looked like we could finish off lower league teams, I was out of my seat once yesterday that's how little we created.

They've had plenty of time, and played teams at varying levels not too dissimilar to our league. We knew we couldn't play any games at home. Who did everyone expect us to play? United away? When you play teams from higher leagues you invariably play against some of their U21/youth anyway so it turns out to be ineffective preparation anyway. I would have personally liked to have seen different formations tried and given more time for partnerships (Pearson & Smith for example) to develop and be refined - that would be my main criticism of this pre-season. |

I expect us to play league 2 teams. They are the closest to the teams at the top of our league. Posted via mobile theme |
