Didn't it Juan. I guess it's a novelty to see us playing a game, albeit a friendly in a sponsor less shirt, first time since 1983. Though I think there was a delay in the early 90s with Muller, as I have the away shirt without a sponsor.

Just caught this. Don’t recall anyone discussing it after the game last night. But disgraceful by the security guard.

Apparently there is a rule that you can’t be shirtless inside the stadium. The bloke took his shirt off to get it signed not to stay that way. Completely uncalled for by the overzealous guard and it’s been reported.

So do we think they were really shit and we were great or anything else

Some of the crosses and finishes were of a great standard irrespective of the defence we were playing against

Cannot wait for the season to start

With the irony being that by snatching the shirt, the fan will not be able to put his shirt back on.
Surely the security guard should be trying to force it back on him instead.

What an idiot.

PS - what happened after the footage stopped, did he give t shirt back, did Deano intervene?

According to Twatter the fans were found, sorted and given free food and drink

That's good. Hopefully the bloke was told to exercise some common sense in future, too.

Guilbert and Jota looked good; always liked Jota at Brentford so I can forgive him the aberration after.

It was Minnesota reserves so not sure how much to read into it but an encouraging start to pre season anyway.

Our ex player Adrian Heath had decent things to say too
