Starting to look more like a starting X1, although we are still missing some big players, Morrison, Nelson, Murphy+ our Euro players.
I know Morrison was injured at the end of last season, but this is now going on a long time. Doubt he'll be ready for Barnsley.
Anyone know what time the coverage is starting on City TV?
No need to respond, it's started!!
Starting any minute.
City in pink 😎

Well 20 mins or so in and each update from Twitter involves Dillon Phillips saving us.
I think I'm going to go to the pub.
Oh dear..
It's not great if I'm honest but then I'm not a great fan of friendlies.
We've not created a great deal outside of a dangerous cross from Giles.
I think Wintle will add something in the middle.
I'm still not the biggest fan of Pack, especially defensively.
I'm sure we'll find out a bit more about most of the new lads once the real stuff kicks off.
We'll be fine, pink don't sink
Are there any City fans there/allowed to be there this evening?
Away fans not allowed!
Giles great cross, turned in by Collins from a few yards.
1-0 City
1-1 Matt beats Flint to the ball to head in from 6 yards out straight from a corner.
1-1 now.
I don't think we had a shot in the first half. Friendlies mean nothing but we look awful.
So many free headers in the box given to the opposition and probably 10% possession
Pretty poor
City win 2-1. Gavin Whyte nets the winner.
Bloody hell that was woeful.
Scored with our only two chances but FGR had so many more chances than us.
We look lethargic, slow and completely devoid of ideas, pace and flair except for the odd occasion when Giles had the ball. But even he struggled tonight as there was little or no movement.
Passing was absolutely dreadful with no composure anywhere on the pitch.
Marlon Pack looks off the pace, made terrible tacking decisions, useless ball retention and passing was non existent. In turn that put the youngsters under a lot of pressure.
Considering we were playing with three centre backs and two defensive midfielders it's quite shocking how much possession and shots we allowed FGR to have from central areas.
I know we are missing key players .... BUT in terms of a number 10 and flair players.... All we have was on show tonight, apart from Murphy, and it's alarming.
Moore will get 30 goals plus if Giles keeps putting crosses in like those.
Giles crossing was the one plus point
Was not a great performance and FGR should have been out of sight with the chances they had.
We do have Morrison, Nelson , NG, Bacuna, Murphy ,Colwill and Moore to return tho.
Yes but we can still only play eleven Fred
It will be coached out of him soon enough.
That's not a fair remark.
Should never over analyse a PSF
