    Bland was really good. He was involved throughout and did a lot of the "spade work" that has been missing from our midfield for a couple of years now. Don't know if he'll start Tuesday: but, based on today, I would expect him to start against Plymouth.

    Pretty much agree with most of what's been said on here. I thought our link up play was excellent most of the time looking to get forward at every opportunity. Not faffing at the back. I thought the young uns performed well. As did most of the seniors. The signs look good with some others to come into the frame. Eg injured, New signings ?. I thought we'd not have a team to put out on Tuesday. Harrogate were either dirty or couldn't cope with our players. Making irrational tackles.
    My mate in his words, on todays performance. "More positives than negatives" and can see it improving.

    So, a 0-3 win is certainly not to be sniffed at, or slapped in the face either lol.
    Sounds like they were physical and risked injuring some of our players. Which is disgraceful to be honest in a pre season so called 'friendly'. :eek:

    Stood next to a bloke from Whitby today. Says he travels to all Saturday home games. Fair play with how bad we were at home last season!

    Wouldn’t mind bringing in another experienced striker similar to McGoldrick who can do the basics really well so there’s no drop off when we need to make subs , experienced strikers with know how worked well for Wrexham in this league.

    Agree 100%

    experienced strikers in this league tend to do well. Not sure what Fletcher is doing this season ..

    Michael Smith would be the one for me but don’t think our finances would go that far.
