Judging by all I've seen pre-season, I think we have to train our eyes towards looking at the bottom of the league table again.  This is just pure rubbish, no guile, no incisiveness nothing.  I'm very worried.

What time is the kick off? It says 2pm on Legion's link but a few people on Twitter are saying 1pm.

2pm local, 1pm UK time. Possibly.

Bit misleading really then. It says 'head over to You Tube after 2pm' so whoever does will miss the first half.

They're just assuming that'll be our bad half.

You wasn't wrong.

Yep. Missed the first half but doesn't look like I missed much.

That was utter dog shit. Pedestrian in defence. Players out of position. Players aimlessly wandering around like they're shopping at the fort with their Mrs. I don't care if its a friendly. There should be some sort of shape to our game. This is bruceball at its moronic  worst.

Come on now. If Bruce gets sacked tomorrow i will throw a party but its a pre-season friendly not the play-off final. It's about getting match fit, no more no less

Does that equate to just jogging around then?

We have manager with less tactical ability of 10 year old rugby fan.  But the best bit is we have kept him for a ANOTHER SEASON. 

We yet again have new stupid owners.

By the last game of the pre season Bruce should have settled on a playing style and formation. He’s been insisting on this 3-5-2 which just isn’t working, and today it’s 3-7-0. Albert isn’t a forward. He’s drifting out wide which is what he does naturally. It’s dull.

We look like we are playing 4-5-1.  We don't like like we are playing three at the back?  Chester and Jedinak are the centre backs.

Nice run by Jack to get a freekick, subsequently blazed over by Albert

On the plus side I really don't think he'll last the season unless we're smashing the league by Christmas.

If it's only a couple of wins by the end of September, he'll be gone.

The referee is very poor.  How many times has Grealish got to be dumped on his arse before he books someone for doing it?
