Wonder when we will see botti, anyone seen him at the game today, I understand he joined the pre season a little bit later than the others

3 academy lads on

He's here and did the warm up but i believe needs bit more pre seaon training before he plays.

‘Sounds’ like a reasonable work out.

It was mate.
Competitive game in very hot condidtions and the players put in another decent performance against higher opposition.

I thought First Half our defence looked very strong with Sam O, Ben Swift, Joe Tennant, Oke I thought will there be a better back 4 in our league not sure there will be, even when Sam did push up in midfield at times, then it occurred to me George Whitfield was missing not sure how Ben will fit them all in, George came on Second Half and was just good as the others and along with the other defenders in the second half,

I feel Ben has assembled a very good squad, my only concern is we seem to not be taking chances in front of goal but I’m sure that will come before the season proper starts

All very Encouraging at the moment
