Maher for Holden who took a little bit of a knock.

If you’re basing it on the second half, it’s Rose in goal

I have a feeling Holden is going to be a nightmare to keep fit

Sadler on for Kiernan and moved to LB - Mills back to middle.

Another flo

Phillips hit the bar!

Of course he did.
BTW, did anyone post the starting eleven (16/18)? If they did, I missed it.

It’s in the thread somewhere

Do fry-ups, do they? But a bit on the careless side?

Good pace for a tall un

Cheers Sir Kenneth fingers crossed he’ll chip in with 8-10 goals I think that’s a fair enough number on a young lads shoulders.The score line suggests we’ve most certainly held our own against premier league opposition today.

No mate but both keepers looked solid in fairness

Watching vale vs Forest streaming on YouTube.

Kiernan was excellent a great a
improvement on Mc Donald.

Exactly the same as my son and I.

Well, really encouraging.

We’re a big team, usually when a prem team turns up our players look small, we’re generally all big as them all over the park and in places bigger and one in particular half as wide as he is tall.

Look pretty solid and organised at the back considering it’s still pre-season.

The possession play makes us look more creative, and the young lad from Huddersfield looks bright, will come deep to receive when needed but also looks good playing on the holder.

If Rose isn’t on top form every week he risks loosing his place, the young keeper looks really good and most definitely not just a bench warmer he’s going to push Rose every inch of the way.

Club needs to sort a few teething problems which were to be expected with lots of new processes and staff.

Catering was telling people they prefer to take cash and will be all season, club needs to get them on message and they need to improve their tech. 1 PDQ device for 3 servers will be a disaster at league games and the devices they are using are the wrong ones for this sort of venue(I’ve implemented cashless systems in major venues in the UK and would not put these in here relying on a mobile phone for connectivity).

Car park attendants were charging £5 for parking despite club site saying £3 for friendlies £5 for league), some stewards need training that they cannot insist on people saying why they are exempt from wearing a mask. So a few minor teething issues to be sorted which is to be expected, the main one being must sort out the cashless very quickly. Team wise even more excited than I was before now. Annnnnnnd… I had chips in the lower stand, hurrraayyy!
