Those who say it's a pre season friendly, you have a point
Thise who say it's for fitness, you have a point
Those who say it's our first run out, you have a point
Those who say we shouldn't lose our heads over such an unimportant fixture, you have a point.
Now, I'm not losing my head, but I'm disappointed to say the least that;
1. 22 players used not one showed any glimpse of basic skill to undo a Level 6 Non League team
2. Our striking options without strengthening significantly are awful. 4 clear cut first half chances that an average striker would have buried
3. If it was about fitness Kiddy finished stronger
4. We lost a game where the opposition did nothing
5. Kiddy showed how easy it was to play against us
6. Our back and fore between the back 5 continues.
7. Our kids, who should have been busting a gut, showed they cam be outplayed by a bunch of non leaguers.
Now, if thigs change with signings, great, but IMHO games like this where result and effort is not mandatory, should be played behind closed doors.
As soon as you have a paying public, players are accountable for a performance.
Could you have seen the Jack's get anything other than a thumping win, first friendly or not, fitness match or not? No, didn't think so.
So, let's wipe this game away, and begin the change. Personnel, style and effort.
