Dan AVFC:
Delfouneso motors down the right, crosses low to the back post. Bent fires against the post but Heskey slams in the rebound.

It's walsall. And a friendly. Bit of perspective please. Encouraging, but it's a million miles away from proving anything.

I'm one of the least pessimistic people on here, but I'm still not going to be doing handstands over beating a team like walsall. In much the same way, I wouldn't be claiming relegation was imminent if we were 2-0 down.

Hopefully Ireland's injury isn't too serious.

its a bit of banter ger, no one is predicting miracles , as much as anything its nice to see the action under way again.

whatever results in friendlies the only real thing that matters is at fulham on opening day of course.

Its only a friendly and nobody should be carried away or mugged off.



But we're playing like Brazil and we're going to win the league.
