    Can't say I'm surprised by the result!

    Match write-up here... http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/18939995

    Now, I know it was only a low-key friendly, but I wasn't very happy to read this:

    "Laudrup took a back seat, and left the stadium after the commanding first half as assistants Alan Curtis and Kris O'Leary gave the instructions from the dugout."

    Come on Michael, it was your first game in charge! Show a little respect...

    He watched from the back of the newer stand, took it all in and didn't leave until we were 5-0 up when all the younger players were on, am sure he will have assessed our fringe players as well as observed some of our youngsters who showed promise.

    Looking at the line up he was probably assessing who he could potentially get rid of?

    First half the team included Gower, Agustien, Dobbie, Orlandi, Lita and Moore, Dobbie was given an extra ten minutes in the second half before being subbed. Thought Kemy and Orlandi impressed the most, the other senior players could be the ones that Laudrup will be looking to ship out.

    Went to the game and the Swans were pretty impressive. Thought Situ was decent too. But yes, very much a B team.

    I agree. It's time to let go.

    Oh and Dobbie looked fit as a fiddle.

    Yes musty. Looked up for it for sure. Let's hope he can go and prove his talent to Laudrup. <ok>
