    Thought it was interesting that in the club interview, when asked about what he made of the game, Still talked about observing people's body language and attitudes pretty early on in his answer. Might be nothing and I'm just reaching, but not necessarily the usual cliché stuff

    He also said 'We've pushed them hard physically, which isn't something they've really been used to. We had some tired legs out there today. But we need to be fit, we need to be very fit - and we will be'

    Sounds like he’s worked out a few of the lazy bastard’s already? if you don’t run and work in his team, you’ll be out.
    The energy in the second half was a massive improvement on the first half team. That was shown when late in the second half we lost the ball but I noticed 4 players closed the Eastleigh player down straight away and won the ball back. Not a lot of that went on in the first half.

    I’d be annoyed if that’s the case. The lazy bastards demonstrated their laziness pretty emphatically last season, we should already know the problem players in the team. Unfortunately it’s just 90% of them and we’ve shifted **** all.

    Will Still confirmed that THB's absence is just a continuation of his recovery from ankle surgery after his injury at Everton

    "The next two or three weeks are going to be about building up his fitness levels and getting his foot where it needs to be. He will be back in full training at the early stages of August, and hopefully back for match situations in the first week or two of August."
