Those are usually the most fun when they get a bit feisty. Players start really putting in the effort and for pre-season they'll get a lot of fitness work out of this, especially in these conditions.

He's possibly the most likely to break through imo as we are slightly short in midfield atm with both Hayden and Sara not available yet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I would go with that if it weren't for we have too many nationalities involved for it to be a French hate the British thing, which by the way, is more a British thing than a French thing... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But that says more about my valuation of Gilmour than anything I suppose. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

KeiranShikari 1,143 Posted July 16, 2022 They're such an edgy team and it's great to see us giving some back. A sign of the defeatist culture shifting? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Unhinged Canary 351 Posted July 16, 2022 OK. He's had his fun now. Can we not play Hugil anymore. He's going to start getting aspirations of being an actual footballer. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

astro 310 Posted July 16, 2022 (edited) I know it was only one game and slightly poorer opposition, but I thought our tracking of runners was vastly improved from last season. Edited July 16, 2022 by astro Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
