Haven't seen the team live yet this year so I'll reserve judgement until I do. Still not concerned about preseason though, if its still looking bad after 10 competitive games then that will be concerning.

His username alone sums up his character. Even that isn't positive.

I must admit I'm a little concerned now.
Pissed again are you ? You drunken predictable giff producing twat ?

Chance for a counter attack for us. Corner for them cleared by Tudgay who finds Arsmstrong, who finds Maddison and returns it in a 1 2, Armstrong runs with it but even with his pace our players don't go up field with him. What should have been a good counter attack ended up being Armstrong against 5 of their men who had managed to track back from the corner we had just defended. Any other team would have made the most of that counter attack

Not at all, but you are the most negative boring helmet on here. Fucking boring.

Geoff Foster: nowhere near ready for Wigan. I'll take that mans word for it.
Says the boy who'd given up on it all as it was just plain rubbish and he couldn't be bothered anymore ?

That isn't what we're saying. We're saying we've had 1 shot on target against L2 opposition

He isn't, no. However hes watched us in every pre season game so far so I trust his opinion

Why? He's clueless.
Very true, I'm hoping for an injection of positivity too but I'm hoping for something to spark it !

Also have Kelly Evans in the middle now too!
Lawton on for Maddison
Kelly Evans (other one) on for Willis

Because he's watched every pre season match so far so I'm guessing he has half an idea

I'm slightly concerned at the moment to be honest, but it's still 'only a friendly'. I'd expect to see more fight when the season starts.

My dog could watch every game but wouldn't have half an idea.
You still would have to have some football knowledge.

If we had been convincingly dominated by Pompey, Luton, Cambridge and Oxford then I might be a little worried. So far we have competed against teams that aren't that far off League 1 standard sides in all reality. The friendlies just can't replicate competitive football for a multitude of reasons. Add to this the fact that the transfer window is still open for another month and at no point has TM stated we are finished signing wise. We are by no means the finished article at this stage - very much competitive in comparison to the majority of teams in the league - but that doesn't mean we are doomed to another season of being relegation fodder.
