    Just popping in to provide the yearly reminder that people who take pre-season results seriously should be made to sign the sex offenders register

    Cheers

    Disaster as this result is, let’s hope the club do the sensible thing and start building a team capable of getting us promoted back to the Championship in three seasons time.

    I take ‘pre season’ results very seriously , but that because I’m a dog breeder and if one of my prime b1tches gets a positive pregnancy test before going on heat , I need to know why .

    I won’t be happy till we do a full liquidation , expulsion from the FL, rebuild from playing South West Herts league in Cassiobury Park , to promotion through the full league pyramid culminating with EPL title winners with the last kick of the ball in season 2029.

    Until that point , I will not be happy and that’s only if Massina is the manager who takes us there and then admits in his acceptance speech how sh1t he was as a player .

    Every stream I caught had a distinct lack of booing.

    Poor pre-season effort from all so far.

    Not a bad result considering the opposition. Very impressed with Dhalberg. Okakka just happy to get game time. Pre season is all about fitness levels and fatigue scaling.

    Every defeat is a bad result. There’s no such thing as a decent loss.

    I was impressed with Adam Masala and Daryl Naanmaat.

    Ken Korma's performance was a bit mild though.

    I also reckon that in the second half we could have done with a player to just sit in the middle and hold everything together, say in the style of Declan Rice.

    We also played a few too many long balls, I'd have preferred it if Javi had got us using a bit more tikka-taka.

    I do own a flat cap, however I can categorically state that I have not got any whippets pregnant. You can't prove anything.

    The guy just got married, at least let him enjoy being a newly married man before demanding he come back for pre season training. It’s his honeymoon, he’s getting more of workout on that, than what our boys are doing anyway in Austria. He will be fitter than all them.

    Saucy.


    Depends if he goes the distance at fulltime and then has the strength for extra time. The less said about the posibility of a penalty shoot out the better.

    Mackay looking accusingly at the black Norwich player there. The signs were there earlier than many noticed....

    He might be gay and has just entered a 'lavender marriage'.

    No Success and no Chalobah in the squad for today’s friendly. Injured? Unable to play twice in three days? About to leave?
