Today's Team

Marshall, Brayford, Hudson, Turner, John, Daehli, Dikgacoi, Ralls, Burgstaller, Guerra, Le Fondre.

Bench - Connolly, Moore, Kim, Fabio, Jones, Gunnar, Whitts Eikrem, Mutch, Maynard, Cala.
Moore to be no. 2 keeper this season? Mason to go?

That's a very interesting looking midfield.

Following Terry Phillips on Twitter..less than 30 mins gone, City down 0 - 1. Marshall & Turner off injured.......some friendly!

Okay, I'm starting to get worried. Twelve days until the start of the season and there's just no cohesion.

Too many players perhaps creating uncertainty as to best combination.....................  

2 - 1 ahead now.....maybe things are taking shape?

3-1 Kenwyne Jones!

Jones the Scorer! That'll confuse things further......

4-1 Kenwyne again! ft

I need new glasses, I'm sure I just read that Kenwyne Jones scored twice?   

Starting to echo Gloves concerns - there's taking preseason results seriously, but then there's realising we are getting outplayed by a league one side for 45 minutes. Too many strikers brought in at the cost of the rest of the side?

I'm not sure we were outplayed in the first half, but I will settle for scoring four goals on a regualr basis......

We went into half time 1-0 down with what could well be our starting XI (take note Rhys) on the field, against a team that sit a full Divison below us, with only a few weeks left until the start of the season. The four goals was a good comeback, but it still worries me our defence is still struggling even against much weaker sides. Remember me saying the problem with having a defender as a manager is he sets the team up starting at the back? Starting to worry the opposite is true if you have a striker as a manager.

Ah..........I've missed these little chats, Red..........
