You never know whose "feeling it" a bit after such a long lay off and short pre-season


The short pre season was our own doing in fairness.

Could work our really well this XI or it could be a disaster, but I can’t wait to watch it.

Edwards played very well on Tuesday. Constantly looking to turn his man.

Things very much up in the air at the moment and it will take a while for us to bed down. I say this every season but i never get too worried or excited for the first dozen games.

No doubt some will be in because they are looking sharper and/or fitter at this stage of proceedings, but i doubt this will be the side we go right through the season with. Idehen is  a strange one granted, but you never know, he may be a better prospect than Pollock for all we know. Ollie must trust him and we must trust the manager.

Surprised at some options, Taylor was hardly in the game on Tuesday, one great pass a game isn't enough. Leaving Pollock out and Idehen in seems strange as Pollock by far the best player of the 22 on the pitch last weekend, But who knows what Ollie is thinking lets hope it works

Ollie is making a statement to the players. If you play and do well you stay in the team. It is then up to the players that don't start to impress and if you don't perform you are out.  Keeps all players on their toes.

I suppose IH is reinforcing the fact to the squad that if you perform you will get in the first team ....
However those that didn't do much wrong last week getting dropped might be a bit drunk off.

I thought Ohman and Idehen both did enough to stay in, also Edwards who was fantastic on Tuesday. Disappointed Montel didn't retain his spot I thought he was the pick of the bunch really exciting prospect with a shot like a sledgehammer.

Taylor is a bit of a surprise for me I thought he was mostly anonymous on Tuesday with Clifton much better.

Ollie must think we have world beating CB's. To have our two 'goto' CB's both on the bench has raised a few eyebrows, but who are we to question Ollie?

I think Ollie is hoping for column inches again after Boyd's midweek heroics. Grimsby and Boyds name were mentioned in the same sentence as Christiano Ronaldo, which you have to admit doesnt happen every day. I cant see any other reason to have Boyd on the bench for this match ahead of Jackson Jnr, Sisay or Spokes.

Come on lads........make some noise
