Thought this was a bit of a lack-lustre performance. It had little to enthuse about and only rare moments when the crowd became excited.
Disappointing as I had enjoyed the so called friendly against WBA so much more.

 

[herringthorpe]

You actually mentioned, didn't you Sixpence, that it was more like a friendly last night.

Time this comp was given the big heave-oh?

 

[sixpence]

I did - and the WBA 'friendly' was more like a 'real' game!

This comp seems a bit of an irrelevance!

 

[herringthorpe]

I do think if they want this competition then it could be a pre-season instead of the friendlies. But perhaps that's just me

 

[sixpence]

Why did we have to play on a date to suit them and not us?
That game has robbed us of that feel good factor from the win last weekend to carry forward into Saturday's game!

 

[herringthorpe]

We often seem to let other clubs dictate us I think

 

[sixpence]

.....and I guess their fixtures are not fixed by the league ot mandatory!

 

[herringthorpe]

I'll be honest I have no idea about the fixtures for this competition. I assume, though don't really know, that they have a certain time to get the first three games in.

 

[sixpence]

Sorry Caz - I wasn't meaning this competition I was thinking about what their U21s do the rest of the season!

 

[herringthorpe]

Ah,, right, yes. I suppose it depends which competition was agreed to first?
