Yet still got a 6-6 draw!

TBF at half time they were 5-2 up at half time before they put on their youngsters and trialists.

A FGR fan said this -

According to Cooper we haven't done any defensive work in training yet, main focus has been on fitness and possession/attacking moves.

Hopefully we'll get round to doing a bit more defensive work before we play Leeds on Tuesday.

Pleasantly, the franchise got beat 1-0 by my birth town Brackley.  Lovely stuff.

I often look out for Brackley’s score. We drive through every other week on the way to games and they used to have a board up saying who they were playing. I started to notice it in the PDC doc 4 season and if I recall they got promoted in that season too

Conroy named as a sub today. Sounds a bit more promising.

There are those who will tell you this side isn't weaker than last season's..... still don't see it myself.  I had a chortle at Reo-Coker, thought he retired years ago.

Well, that was encouraging.

Negatives - none

Positives - Alzate is classy, very classy. Smith looks an excellent carrier, pass it on player. McGlashan likes to run direct at the opposition. Adebayo can be summed up in one word - Languid. A sort of Ben Gladwin up front.

Got to keep the best for last, though. Anderson was superb throughout. Great to have Vigs back.

Joe Romanski looks like a real good player in the making - shame about his build.

I know it’s only a friendly but we were better than WBA in that first game.

Played the second 60 minute game. Some nice touches but with the youngsters around him it was difficult to stand out. Looks like he may be the sort to try something flashy in the wrong area.

A few of the youngsters looked pretty good.

Yes.

Very encouraging first 60 mins. Town looked like a team who knew what they were doing. Round pegs in round holes and everyone seemed to want to get on the ball and move it forward.

My old man said Alzate is a 'gem' and that Town will make the play-offs. Heady stuff indeed.

I only went because something else got postponed but was glad I did.
