Let's see what our 'first 11' can manage before we all start having nervous breakdowns. They looked a bit knackered to me tonight - very little energy. Perhaps the travel just caught up with them? TBF Jos said he didn't like taking teams abroad because of the time lost through travel. Must say going to Portugal and Germany does seem a bit OTT. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
james o connor Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 People have way too much time on their hands . Who cares if we win ten nil or lose ten nil in games like that. They mean nothing . 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t necessarily agree that getting pumped 10-0 would be classed as a good run out, I do agree that friendly results overall are meaningless - but you won’t have much of the ball if you get destroyed...

I would have hoped each game was useful both in terms of fitness and implementing tactics. Tonight was uninspiring on both counts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jim Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 I always prefer to lose a game or two in Pre-Season than win the lot. I’ve seen us have very good pre-seasons then struggle when the real stuff starts. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

agentwalker Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 You don't like to think it but if suspect today's game was like the elimination line up of Britons got talent. If you started tonight you take a look at the players around you and you think poo I'm on the 2nd team here I'm not likely to be starting. Suppose it kind of shows bullen who's up for the fight. I know João and big Dave wasn't the last time it happened. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of our best recent seasons have come off shocking pre seasons and some of the worst off cracking pre seasons (03/04 is an example that springs to mind ) . Peop really do get het up over nothing . We stuffed 3 other teams and lost tonight . It really melt down territory is it 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bolsterstone Owl Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Why travel and get tired, sleep on different beds, pack, unpack, etc. Why not stop at home, eat well, train, chill and have teams come to Hillsborough every three or four days. Why not? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wednesday_Jack Posted July 19, 2019 Share Posted July 19, 2019 Trouble beforehand resulted in an heavy police presence, been held back and then a police escort back to the train station. 500/600 fans travelled for this game and only 2 players acknowledged the fans efforts...pretty poor!! The Lübeck players made more of an effort than our own players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
