    No idea what kind of Boro team this is but we’ve played fairly well. Quick passing with intent. I’m impressed with our new right wing back from Brentford again. He can defend and has a good cross on him.
    Play like this in the league and we should have a successful season. The midfield is completely different to last which was our main problem.

    Sounds good!

    Maybe Pattison will be what we thought Walker might be last season?

    Is Oduor playing at wing back?

    It’s how to open teams up by drawing them on every good manager plays that way

    Im just relieved there is no chance he repeats last seasons numbers. Not a chance.

    Man has looked awesome in preseason. Looks like he might score every game he plays in.

    He won't, but its a damn good sign.

    Hat trick at Crawley will be welcome.

    Is Gilliead at LWB? If so, how's that working out?

    Not at the moment. He's playing attacking CM currently. Gilliead seems to be left wing back.

    Said to the missus, “It’s Bishop Desmond Tutu at City”.

    She said, “I THOUGHT HE WAS DEAD”.

    Doesn't alter the fact three of them will start against Crawley.

    3-2 Cook (hat trick).

    It seems Platt didn't connect.

    For a preseason friendly that’s terrific and would shame many L2 league fixtures! Well done all, inc our visitors.

    It’s got to be a Cook hat trick.
