well they came out stronger 2nd half, much more physical which our lads need to get used to, some of it over the top but never mind, the championship teams are not going to sit back and allow teams to play the ball around...the lads handled it very well and gave them a glimpse of what is coming.

don't think they liked a 2nd division english club playing around them so easily.

have to mention that foul on onien unfortunately, he had only one thing in his mind and onien could have been badly hurt but the lads were all there together when it kicked off, good to see.
 
Enjoyed that, good workout and we look good for the coming season. Excited about our young and new lads and it looks like we’re all in together. Not a Mowbray fan but after a great season last year it looks like he’s got them up for it again. Gonna have to change my views on him

Solid run out. Lots of hard yards in the legs there.

They are a good team. Made some clever adjustments in the second half and were much stronger.

We look better with than option to go long if needed. Hemir looks canny. Not going overboard yet. Jobe is also canny, not sure if he has if to be so far forward but early days. Still need a out and out DM for me.
 
It's bit rich to say that and then follow it up with "I'm not a fan of Mowbray" in my opinion.
Your entitled to your opinion but it's completely different my thinking on Mowbray and his on lihadji. As I said in my post I'll have to think again re Mowbray

It is different. He's made a daft comment, judging Lihadji after a handful of games. You've seen us under Mowbray about 50 times and have still got it wrong.

Which is why I said that I would have to change my views on him. did you not see it in my post or are you just ignoring it. Also in my post I was praising him
 
I think they didn't like the previous 2 challenges by O9 and just decided to take him out

I know it's human nature to get stuck in but it always amuses me to see the offending team get as aggro as the injured one. "Yeah that's Terry he likes breaking legs and I'll fight for his right to cripple your player!"
