1. Seems like all the decent pubs in town were shut due to the threat of far right riots. Frustrating as me and my old man wanted to drink in Steingarten. Ended up having to go in The Standing Order Wetherspoons for cheap pints and microwaved 'food'. 2. Decent view in the Northam Wall but the safe standing has obviously been done on the cheap. Basically just some scaffolding bolted onto the end of the rows. Also, are there meant to be bars outside? There was some sort of structure being built in the car park but no idea if you're meant to get drinks in there. Would be good if that was possible as the queues in the concourse are still big even with a smaller crowd. If I want to get something (which is rare as generally everything they sell is way overpriced) I don't really want to be missing much of the game. 3. Ronnie Edwards, Charly Alcaraz and Ben Brereton Diaz were my standout players. Edwards seemed composed and confident which is impressive for such a young player. Alcaraz was direct and seemed to be the catalyst for all our attacks in the first half. This is a quality that very few players have in our squad and with it seeming more and more unlikely that we will get O'Reilly we should try our hardest to keep Charly. Diaz's goal was taken well and if he gets proper service he could be a great player for us. 4. We have one more friendly left to play and I'm still none the wiser as to what our starting XI will be. I get that it's good to experiment with the team now considering these games don't mean much but it would be nice if we could see an actual spine established. So far, based off our pre season team sheets, the only players who I think are sure to start are Downes and McCarthy. I think we all know what our best backline is but does Martin as it has changed every game. 5. The pink shirt looks even worse in person |

Terrible again last night. We spent 23 million on him and got 2 goals in a meaningless game against Liverpool and 3 assists against Leeds. Fair play for the Leeds assists they actually meant something but otherwise I don't see what he offers. To make it worse, Leicester only spent about 8 million on Mavididi. Joke |
