    Can't believe this. We need a proper test.

    No good beating teams 13-0 that lack fitness and quality! WTF is going on?

    I really can't believe that all 3 clubs would pull out of friendlies through no fault of ours, there's got to be some reason for it happening?

    The Italians have a tradition of backing out of things .

    I'd have thought that if there was anything to this rumour there would be something on the NCFC twitter site, but there isn't. Perhaps we should wait and see.

    game definitely off - replaced by an open training session instead.

    i am getting increasingly concerned about our preparations now.

    Must admit the lack of preparation and low quality of opposition is concerning, the club say it's out of their hands but better steps should have been in place so this didn't happen.

    Think when we do finally play against a good team we will struggle big time.

    We've got the mighty Colchester Utd at the Tesco bowl next!

    A bit of a step up in opposition to what you boys are used to! <whistle>

    That's about your standard though, mid-table League One!

    Extraordinary chain of events
    Italian sides dropping like flies,
    But no opposition represents
    A waste of a week in my eyes

    For yesterday´s thirteen goal sweep
    On their North Italian escape,
    Cannot have done that much to keep
    Especially our defence in shape

    So three matches only remain
    Before Wolves appear in our sights,
    Not that much game time to attain
    What we need to scale coming heights.
