  • Not bad at all,defended well,not much going forward which is to be expected,Washington looks good and could be a decent replacement for Judas,Amos looks good,so no problems if Phillips leaves,all in all just happy to be talking about football again.

    Just out of interest, is TS at the game?
    There was a rumour he was flying over which is good news I presume is good news for the purchase as in he must be confident if he is flying over. But if he is here I cant see him being at the game, quarantine and all that

    Sue Parkes pulled rank and is representing the club in an official capacity.

    Pleasantly surprised so far.  Trying to play some nice football.  Final third letting us down again.  We do not look like a L1 side...

    He couldn't be as he would need to quarantine.
  • Tbh I see pratley playing centre back as a natural progression. He reads the game so well but his legs may struggle in midfield. Also allows us to pass out from the back.

    Didnt someone say that if he went from the States > Denmark > England then it would be 24-hours of qurantine?
  • Zaha probably earns more than our entire squad!
  • Nice block on Matthews from the ref to stop us attacking

    Game was allowed to play on proving we even get shit officials in friendlies!!
  • Wouldn't it be a shame if Darren Pratley caught Zaha with one of his "I'm here" tackles and put Zaha out for 6 months?

    Great from Vennings to put Zaha on his arse!! - Guess its not that much of an achievement though
  • Ooof, last ditch tackle to stop Bonne who was in!!

    Until that last ditch block from Purrington we've looked the slightly better team this half

    Being honest I would rather lose Lockyer than Matthews. Obviously would rather lose neither!
  • I would not be happy with this display if I was a fan of the opposition though, could be a tough Premier League season for them!!
  • Charlton corner
  • A lot of subs set to be made by us, so guess with our weaker bench is where we'll begin to struggle

    Yeah especially when you consider we've got Oztumer and Williams who could easily have been involved in that first eleven
  • Crickey youth teams just gone on!
  • Josh Clarke looks tiny!!

    My life time ambition is complete....Ness and Mingi as a Centre Back paring for the first team - doesn’t get any better than this.
