Perhaps it's a Macron thing then. Not good enough either way and doesn't bode well for the relationship.

Aren't they blaming the pandemic for the delay?

Millwall, who are also with Macron, used their training kit for their match today. I believe that Macron manufacture the shirts in Italy so the delay is probably down to Covid.

My mates house overlooks the ground, he said he's going to draw the curtains for the next 90 minutes 🙄

Covid and Brexit.

[Gumbi]

It seems that the keeper kit is the new one as it appears to be the same design as the one Lazio just revealed with their new kits.

There are no houses that overlook the ground. Either you are gullible or trying to be funny.

As expected, essentially a youth team. Wonder if Mowbray will be questioned on how he has allowed the squad to become so thin after the game?

They said a week or two back that they are wearing a temporary kit today

Overlooks the ground is pushing it. Thought he was shutting his curtains though 🤣

If that actually is the view from his house he doesn't need to close the curtains, he can't see it for the trees!

Not much happening on the pitch then?

Says on the official site that this is the team for the second half:

Rovers (second half): Stergiakis, Nyambe, Saadi, Annesley, Whitehall, Davenport, Travis (c), Butterworth, Vale, McBride, Durrant.

Maybe Armstrong is off and Ayala has another injury?

Shall we have a sweep on what imaginary injury he has? 😉

[Fraserkirky]

Absolutely sick of the sight of Bradley Johnson

[simongarnerisgod]

The 2 X1's today  don't exactly bode well for the season do they? 

Although funnily enough even if that's what we were left with I could get behind those players a lot easier than the likes of Bennett/Evans/Ayala/Downing and another batch of loanees from other Clubs.

Both have trained this week in Stirling in the training camp. 

Armstrong is in the stands at Fylde stadium

Is he? Sort of get Kaminski, but with Ayala, Lenihan, Dolan, Armstrong and one or two others not playing, doesn't seem logical not to get 45 minutes under their belts.

Maybe we are keeping away any risk of Armstrong jeopardising a transfer away by pulling up. Maybe we wont sign anyone until he goes.
