Pre-season friendlies thread

[SF_]

Let’s be right, Forestieri is a massive c***. Very good player but a total bellsniff.

Pearson is the same tbf, you always love them when they play for your club while everyone else hates them.

Never seen Pearson sent off for headbutting and diving, or punch anyone after a friendly after allegedly racially abusing someone.

Good result for a fairly strong Bolton side last night. Lost 3-1 to Guiseley.

Don't know what planet you are on, but only 5 first teamers played last night, as shite as it was not a full strength squad, but nice try

Foristieri is just your standard Argentinian , he may have moved from argentina at an early age but he's still got all their values. 90% of South American footballers are certainly not the most likeable characters on these shores. Don't get me wrong there are plenty of cocks from here too worse than 1FF.

It’s Pearson 2-1 Forestieri at the moment anyway

My opinion fwiw
Forestieri - great talent for this division. Gets kicked from pillar to post on a regular basis, often with no protection from referees.
On the downside goes to ground far too easily, is easily wound up and loses his head very often.
Someone commented liked by his teammates, not sure of this, due to his antics with Winnall and refusing to play.
Can be a match winner or an absolute bellend, often more of a negative to the team due to his attitude and profensity to getting sent off. But with him we could perhaps challenge for the playoffs, without him no chance.

Pearson - Absolute c*** whenever I've seen him, his fans and teammates seem to love him. I would love him to play for us.

Not seen anything from Mansfield match so can't comment on that specific incident. As usual will be 2 completely different stories, with the truth probably somewhere in-between.

 

[Liam_SWFC]

Winnall is a complete nob end though I'm with Forestieri on that situation.

 

[TomPNE94]

That challenge Forestieri put in on Pearce is worthy of a 3 game ban on its own

 

[Another Walkley Owl]

Winnall is a complete nob end though I'm with Forestieri on that situation.

Do you not think his refusal to play in order to gain a pay rise might have pissed a few other players off?
Don't get me wrong he's a good player, but with his attitude, is he good for the dressing room. Not taking into account his disciplinary record.

No idea who your 1st teamers are to be honest but I'd be more concerned at the lack of effort before the shortfall in quality.

 

[Brad-Owl]

Good old arrogant Wednesday fan again get a fucking grip ffs, it's embarrassing.

Arrogant that I don't know any players from another Championship team or just because I think Forestieri is one of best players in Championship?
Apart from biggest clubs like Villa I'd struggle to name one player of most other Championship teams, I tend to concentrate on my own team.

Anyhow here's a photo of one of them nice Mansfield players doing a karate kick on Tom Lees.

 

[Richard Cranium]

Got the ball(s)

 

[roversfan2001]

Played a strong Everton team off the park tonight, won 3-0.

Lack of effort was one of the issues. Anyway, The team that started had 5 first teamers and the team that finished had another 5 first teamers, but get your point, we were still shite

 

[TractorBoys]

Off to PR tomorrow to watch the friendly against West Ham.

We are desperately thin on the ground at CB and also in the final third.

Need a busy week.

 

[JJH]

Fielding, Maenpaa, Kelly, Wright, Moore, Hakeeb, O'Dowda, Watkins all not in tonight's squad due to injury lol

 

[Liam_SWFC]

Villarreal at Hillsborough tomorrow, still not sure wether I'll bother as friendlies are shite. If the suns out and beers flowing I might make an appearance.

 

[AFCB_Mark]

1-1 with Bristol City, sounds like they were certainly better for most of it, we sounded pretty disjointed.

We've another game tomorrow with Forest, so we'll see who we put out for that.

 

[JonBCFC]

Fielding, Maenpaa, Kelly, Wright, Moore, Hakeeb, O'Dowda, Watkins all not in tonight's squad due to injury lol

Kelly has missed all of pre season which is pretty concerning since Bryan will probably be off.. that and we still don’t have a fit senior keeper.

Elliason looks the bollocks though, got a good feeling about him this season

 

[Abertawe]

We got fried

 

[SF_]

Beat Oldham 3-0, shit first half, class 2nd half.

Moult, Horgan & Gallagher with thethe goals. Burke was class.

 

[Liam_SWFC]

We finished off our pre season with a 3-1 home defeat against Villarreal, no surprise really they finished 5th in La Liga and will be in the Europa League. Liam Palmer scored our goal, no idea how we played as I didnt go. Onto the big kick off at Wigan now.

 

[Luke_1884]

A convincing 2-1 win over Wolves to end our pre season, we look in decent nick for Friday.

Yeah I went today, thought you looked impressive. Carson was excellent and Max Lowe / Mason Mount looked decent too.

 

[Jockney]

Beat vfl Bochum 1-0 in what sounded like a much better performance

Also doubled as jimmy abdou’s testimonial — farewell Jim! Ten years of service, always played with a smile on his face, what a bloke

 

[Muzzle]

WE WIN....okay it was against Peterborough but a win is still a win

 

[91SPP]

Winnall is a complete nob end though I'm with Forestieri on that situation.

Strange. Winnall was very much liked by all staff and players at Derby, we even let him hang around and receive treatment for his knee despite not being our contracted player. I believe he spent a lot of time at Moor Farm during the close season too. I doubt we would have done that for him if he was a knobhead.

Anyway, back on topic, our pre-season has been excellent. The performances are so, so far improved on last season that we look a completely different animal. It’s very encouraging going into the new season. Individual performances have massively improved. We’ve had a nice surprise in Max Lowe who has been our best player throughout the five games, no doubt he’s now our first choice left back. I just hope he can stay fit.

 

[SMH]

Just been absolutely pumped by Rangers. Played a mixture of starters and bench players but took Burn off at HT and absolutely fell apart. Said it before we are a very attractive price for relegation. Less than a week to go and we still need about 3-4 players. We were just as crap in pre season two years ago and that ended just as badly.

 

[SF_]

Almost jizzed in my pants when I saw we'll be travelling to Fleetwood, Kirkham, Chorley & Bamber Bridge.

I'd have done Cork if it wasn't a Monday night.

Haven't even sorted any home games yet.
