10/10 Exactly what I thought. It was noticeable that their first team manager was right on the touchline encouraging his team throughout the game. I was on that side of the stand but I never noticed our guys doing much.

You’re dead right about Barrett, I don’t think I’ve ever seen him make a save that was out of the extremely basic.

Regarding Tyjon, he got absolutely no service so no wonder he got disheartened. 

Our 3 were over run by their 4 in midfield and we never did anything much to alter that. 

It didn’t matter but I was right in line for their 4th goal. Their guy was yards off side. Not feet, yards.

It just looked like we were just fulfilling a promise for a pre-season friendly. One team wanted it, and one didn’t.

Mike Sheron looked deflated by the performance. I can accept bad results and even performances if the basics are there but last night there were no positives to draw. With two games coming up next week (Athletico Bilbao and Burnley) there needs to be a huge improvement. I wonder if Eustace will use them games as a opportunity to give some first team squad players some game time.
