has nobody on this thread ever followed pre season before??? just ignore results and performances,its just about getting match fit and trying things out. the last time we played them we lost 2 0 and everyone was calling for Dc's' head,so good result Still think we need at least 4 quality players some just won't cut it in l1,we struggled v the better teams last season I'm happy to struggle against the better teams again if it ends up the same way!

Yeah to be fair pre-season under Buckle and several pre-seasons under DC now have taught me to just ignore everything and try to enjoy the games, unfortunately tonight's game wasn't that great!

He'd set up so many for Taylor in league 1 I think we'd win promotion. Unfortunately i doubt either of them will be playing for us next season. I must be blind, I can't see anything about Rickie Lambert

Puddy,Mcrystal,Gosling,O Clark,Lawrence and Harrison would be my 6. It was good to go Back to Twerton,go to the pub we used to use and see a few old mates,I don't think the result matters when you get 8 changes for the second half but I do think that professional players should be able to pass better than some were last night. Leadbitter got some good crosses in but there was no one in the middle to put them away. Be interesting to see if Chad Field plays tonight at Weston he looked good at Salisbury. Anyway the 'facilities' were just the way I like them,a terrace to stand on and a barrier to lean against.

i actually meant 6 or 5 without taylor from the starting 11 as theres no point in signing new players if they dont improve your best 11

Portsmouth and Accrington are the only teams who did the double over us. Out of the other promoted teams with us, we came back from 2-0 down to draw with the run away leaders, beat Oxford away and thumped Wimbledon. I wouldn't call that struggling. we only took 6 points from the top 6 teams last season out of a possible 30, that's relegation form

UTG !

So anyone have any info on our mysterious triallist? I've seen he was from non-league but nothing more than that. Did he take the corner that we scored from? If so, lovely delivery we could do with some of that this season.

If so, lovely delivery we could do with some of that this season. Looked reasonable, good delievery on him. Left footed. Seemed to have a quickish turn of foot. Took the corner off a player to take it so must have a bit of confidence. Hard to say with only 45 mins.

His corners were very good....strong on the ball...looked like a stronger, more skilfull Danny Greenslade. Neither Richard Latham nor Keith Brookman knew who he was!

We took 8 points off the promoted teams. That is promotion form, hence why we got promoted.
