What was the score then, Raph mentioned you'd lost 1st half but won 2nd half, no score though?
New lads do ok? oh and how about the 1st's?
we've not started friendlies yet mate, 4 or 5 is more than enough for us - 7 or 8 seems madness to me, but each to their own....
We've just had 2 training sessions and things look great from those, got 4 new Bauer lads and another 3 of Portugese decent who could be anything, 1 does look sh*t hot though, he ghosts past people at 5a-side and has fitness that well out-strips our fittest lad previously - wait and see how they gell on the 1st Aug again jimmys lot though.
4 or 5 is adequate. We have had one in July, plus a small-sided tournament and a further three in August; plus one against our first team before the season kicks-off.
Good to have Mick's eyes on the sideline now for me, we tried several different combinations in the first half, went 1-0 up, then changed things around and conceded 4, then a different side second half with some new young lads won that half and 4-2 overall. Good debut from all the new lads.
You can't read anything into scorelines in friendlies though; we beat Coates last year pre-season and if we were to have played them during the season, they'd have battered us!
Thanks to Kammi and AK11 for getting a team down too and giving us a good test.
We (SSPIO Reserves) are looking for a friendly on 29th if possible? We have a pitch available at Werrington for 2pm kick off? We really need a test before the season starts.
Ideally we would like to play a reserve team from the Combination leagues, but will also willing entertain a Div 2 side.
PM me a response if interested, or email to rfrascogna@sspio.net
Thanks
Raph
Playing Jimmy and Kings Cliffe now, thanks for the influx of offers!
Glad to be of help mate, hopefully we will give you the test you are looking for.
:clap: but i'll prob still be injured :(
Can't wait, should be a good game, although there are four divisions between us!
Rapha there may be 4 divs between us, but its only a friendly buddy, gives both sets of players a chance for another 90mins of footy all in prep for the start of the season. We would have had 3 friendlies that week, we got eye res 25th , hopefully pns res 27th and then you lads on the 29th.

We put up half decent battle against them
To be fair bezza you defo did mate, we didnt play to our strengths in that game ( only at times ), i think you would agree that when we did get the ball down n do the simple things we tore into you, but majority of the game we didnt do that n you boys gave a very good account of yourselfs i just hope ur 1st team dont nick all your players else it be a hard season for you. lol
Be a nice test this one Raph!! Cliffe (Stoke City!!!!!) are a good strong side!!! I hope we show them the quality we have!!!!
All the pressure will be on the Div 1 side to not lose to a Combi 3 team before their season opener . . . especially with the imminent return of Brattan Jnr. to the SSPIOres fold!

They do they do, thats what we are there for. Even so, we will always:dsc: win lose or draw
Yes rapha i heard my younger bro expects to make his comeback this week n hope he stays fit to face us. Its always harder to play against lower opposition, as you are expected to win, but as footy as always proven in the best that is not the case sometimes.
Bezza great attitude to have mate.
Theory is you should hammer us but as far as we are concerned, Our players will have a good strong side to play and hopefully focus them on the season ahead, Bratts, I do hope though if your 3-2 up with a few seconds to go they understand that trying to score a fourth is a bad move!!! I don't want slim scoring an equaliser in the last seconds, it would be a blood bath in the bar afterwards....
No seriously, looking forward to the workout.
Moe - chances are will go 1-0 down before we kick in2 gear, that usually happens when we play lower opposition, i will be looking at 1 or 2 lads from our ressies as we got a few out at the minute with injuries. We need the workout like u boys do as we face Eye 1st game of the season.
If the scoreline is 3-2 n slim is still on the pitch n he breaks thro our defence i will run on n rugby tackle him *bkk*
You'll have to get through me to get to him Jimmy, he's only just back from a long lay-off and an important part of our team.
Do not worry bratts I will help you avoid Raph!!! he will be subbed before then...lol

I can't wait to get back playing and join up with Raph and the old SSPIO lads as well as the new ones... though one subs appearance at a time for me as the knee is not 100% and don't think it will be for a while!
We all know i can't shoot for toffee so no worries there fat Bratts, besides we will already be a few goals up before i get on the pitch :clap:.

I hope you are not trying to play too early young bratts, would rather you finished the season with us than just start it. If that means missing the whole of pre season and the seasons start. Its not a problem.

I hear ya Moe and you are right!
Physio has given me the all clear to start 'activities' again though i do have a bit of pain still, coming down sat to see how i get on and see how it feels and don't worry i will be straight off (if i get on) if it is not right!
