I don’t mind losing if you can see some sort of play all I saw was lump it up top try and win 2nd balls that was it utter [Poor language removed]
 

I'm so happy that after all these years I've finally learned to avoid this place most of the time whenever a match is on or in the immediate aftermath of a defeat. Its a pit of misery 99% of the time and is the scene of more hysterical mood swings then you've ever seen in your life. Say it with me boys, clutch your pillows tightly, cry as much as you want and say the words with me. "IT'S. A. FRIENDLY. AND. MEANS. NOTHING". Say that that every time you're on the brink of a crying and shaking session boys and girls and you'll feel all better........

But you need to see something, anything yes we have knocks but there's no patterns few positives, nothing
 

Friendlies are a glorified training exercise for the purpose of fitness and nowt else mate. Stressing over a friendly is like watching a training session at finch farm and worrying because its not as fun as you'd thought it would be.

well that itself if worrying then, because unless we are training to give the ball away almost everytime we have it, miss every chance we get and defend terribly then it's not going very well tbh

Its hardly great obviously but I still wouldn't look to much into it. I've seen way to many pre-seasons where we've lost every game and then been fine in the normal season to spend my time stressing over another one. Some of you lot have followed this club for way to long to keep falling into the same trap year after year.
 
It was a shocking display. A defence consisting of our 4th and 5th choice centre backs, a second choice gk and two fullbacks in the late 30s didn't bother me - Keane and Holgate will be nowhere near the first team thankfully. It's the lack of goal threat that really terrifies me. DCL looks like he's completely checked out, and Beto looks out of his depth. It's not like we weren't creating chances either.
 
Id say thats ridiculous if true.

I just cant believe that.

It is preseason, but come on we shouldnt be getting done 3 nowt at Cov no matter how you dress it up.

Im sure itll (hopefully) be a different story come season start....
Believe or not that's what he said in the post match after Salford. There for you to listen ro. These pre season games NEVER mirror reality on the first day of the PL season so I never know why anyone puts any weight on the scorelines.
