86th Minute. Still 1-0 down. Millen has some serious explaining to do. We missed lots of chances and conceded from set pieces,
Pre-Season form.. Charlton..1-0..loss..3rd tier.. Torquay..2-0..loss..4th tier.. Plymouth..3-2..win..4th tier.. Cheltenham..2-1..win..4th tier.. Bath...2-0..loss..Conference.. Yeovil...1-0...loss...3rd tier.. Hayes and Yeading (at training ground) win..3-2..Conference... won.3.drawn..0..lost..4...g/f...8...g/a...11... Not very impressive......
Just as well it's all about fitness and the results are secondary. Also about new players settling in....oh sorry...you haven't got any.
are all your 'friendies' lower league opposition or do you have decent clubs to play against like like any prem clubs or like ajax again? if not, your not really testing yourselves and i can see you getting hammered an awful lot this season i really do think we will be singing "when rovers win and city lose" a hell of a lot this season
P49'nr most unlike you lacking knowledge,we have signed, Yannick Bolasie (6 figure sum,not disclosed),Ryan Taylor (to be determined) and Niel Kilkenny (English and Australian International for a large signing on fee) better than 15 nomads.. cjs with your knowledge I know,you know we play WBA next week god help us..... Why don't you both go and do one down the minimal and enjoy your early phase successes and enjoy your dreams..
I did know wize...but why let the facts get in the way of a cheap shot ?! We both know it's swings and roundabouts, cycles and patterns. At the moment we're 'avin' a larf, and I'm sure your turn will come around. Seriously....things are not right at your end and it can't be passed off too lightly. If you were not an ardent fan what would persuade you at the moment to go along to the Gate on 6 Aug.? There's no excitement or anticipation building. He'll have to go if you don't put up a good show (not necessarily win) v WBA, and/or beat Ipswich.
49'nr it was your cheap shot or blast (Also about new playerssettling in....oh sorry...you haven't got any. ) that deserved a response.. The larf bit I like, I'm excited at the start of a new season and concerned at our form as are most other REDS..
Not for Nicky M but the decision is his and I still think he is brilliant,your lot have called him unproved,dodgey knees but that boy is international class and deserves better than a championship move,regardless of club.. I want him to stay,but he deserves premier league,nothing less..
wiz, i have no interest in your pre-season line up so i didnt actually know about west brom. all i know is what i read on here defeat after defeat against lower league opposition. if i knew you had west brom, i would not have asked that question if you play against any decent sides! know your luck, you will stuff them 4-0
Preseason friendlies mean nothing, when it comes to the 'real thing' players will be step up a few gears, so no worries
