Started off with a 2-0 win over Port Vale
Then 1-1 with dynamo Kyiv
Then 2-1 defeat to Blackpool
Then 1-0 defeat to Fulham
Now four minutes in and we are 2-0 down to Lincoln.

Is it just me or does the season prep seem along way from being ready?

Yes, I was happy after the Kyiv game, but since then....
I know it's only pre-season and it's the same every year, but there are a lot of first-team players getting minutes. And Lincoln? Really?
Maybe I'm just a stroppy old geezer - now retired, moved house and more time to reflect on just how bad we can be.

I really never bother in pre-season its time for experimentation, I do think is has highlighted our goalkeeping problem and I do think we need a No.1 with Griff as back up, beyond that I keep the faith. Smile
