Decent workout,like Rudoni look's a great signing.

 

[Paul Anthony]

Sincerely hope we never have to play these again. What a bunch of wankers.

 

[long way home]

Rudoni is going to be a good player for us good on the ball and works off it well. I thought we seen plenty of good signs tonight get everyone back with some additions and we will be ok.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Rudoni is 1) going to make us forget about COH very quick and 2) make us a lot of money

 

[COVKIDSNEVERQUIT]

We scored yet?

That's an hour and a half I'll never get back.

Playing a rugby team for Pre season. Banter

 

[EalingSB]

Pulled into Darmstadt just as the Getafe friendly finished - no bunting out for next week! Nightmare journey getting home from Berlin today with two cancelled flights followed by an eight-hour train ride.

 

[Potbellypig]

Rudoni looks more like an 8 than a 10. That's all I got from today.

Encouraging performance. Kept shape really well and everyone looked comfortable with their roles. Pressed well and starved them of any good opportunities.
Didn't create too much in open play but looked dangerous from set pieces, thanks to Rudoni's delivery.
Burroughs went past the fullback on the outside a few times, something I wish MVE would do. He is a bit of a unit too.
Will be interesting to see who starts out of Binks and Kitching.

 

[Cally Fedora]

Rudoni v O’Hare. We’ve traded up.

Binks, at least for the first 3 games

Said it from the start. He was head and shoulders above everyone in that turd of a Huddersfield team, yet people were hung up on basic goal and assist stats.
He's really going to kick on here.

Good away point

Can't wait for the Second Leg.

 

[Saddlebrains]

Add another midfielder in the box to box 8 mould, and replace Godden with someone better than him but not as good as Simms and we are top 6 piece of piss

 

[steve101]

We represented the Championship very well. They did not do the same for La Liga. Quality and attitudes were shocking.

I think we're fine for box-to-box options with Rudoni, Eccles, Torp, Palmer and Allen if we're desperate. That's 5 players for 2 positions.

Another elite ball-playing 6 would be delightful. Someone who can dictate the tempo.

 

[Sky Blue Harry H]

Binks, at least for the first 3 games

He only misses one game through suspension.

 

[steve101]

I hope we keep Burroughs around the first team (not loan out). Think he has shown enough over the last 2 seasons to suggest he is capable of at least being an understudy to MVE. Being able to play in a number of positions is useful too.

Agreed, I rate him. Didn't look out of place at all in 22/23. Was better than Dabo, and BNC for me

 

[stupot07]

Really impressed with Rudoni the lad looks class, Allen also played well in the second half, as did Bidwell.

I thought Andrews looked much better and stronger than last time he played.

Is Torp injured?

 

[SkyblueTexan]

Managed to catch some bits in the second half. Pitch looked awful and ref didn't seem to have any control. Looks like a good workout against frustrating opposition. Thought we could have nicked it, but glad we didn't concede.

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

Any quotes from Robins at all yet? Interested to hear why Torp and Rapha weren’t involved

Was wondering whether he’d do a presser

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Rudoni is a classy operator. Has a lot more in his armour than O’Hare

He also has better hair

 

[bukayosakamoto]

Was out n about so had to watch the game an hour or two late. But fuck me we have an exciting season ahead of us.

 

[long way home]

Any news on Wright's injury.

Would love us to be in for Kyprianou. Very decent player

 

[Perennial Lurker]

There has been a lot of talk about leadership and grit preseason after losing Kelly and Fadz . Tonight against a horrible,niggly side players stood together and looked after each other with a few players you wouldn't expect piling in .
Think we know that once again team spirit and togetherness isn't going to be a problem this season

Thomas is quite an imposing figure and made their CB back down from trying to bully Allen

 

[Terry_dactyl]

Another attribute Palmer has (I’m a fan) is that he isn’t afraid to get ‘involved’. Lati and Jeccles also aren’t too shy to kick people when it’s needed/not needed either.
And then There are more obvious ‘brutes’ like kitching, Thomas, simms, Bidwell.
I think I’m trying to say we’re a bit tasty nowadays. Which personally I’m quite happy about.

 

[SkyblueTexan]

I heard people say Wright got injured. What happened?
