Some valid points from Casagolda, capt_oats and Swello with regards expectations on attending pre-season friendly fixtures.
Whilst I buy into the score not being of major importance, last night was woeful. We were bullied, outfought - that's unacceptable given, we were looking at the likely team line up for our first competitive fixture on Saturday.
Defence was shapeless. No creativity, no pace - the list goes on. I remain unconvinced on recruitment despite the fanfare.
Being fed the line 'emphasis on intense training prior to going on the pitch' - how fit do you need to be to pass a few yards to your teammate?
As for the hoofball favoured by some - these UEFA pro-licences are working in our favour right?
