If we can keep this squad for another year or two we will have a really good first team provided of course we have a Coach who can play that way instead of old-school football. The game has moved on big time.

Really enjoyable wasn`t it Jeff. The 92 people there (attendance given by the steward on the way out of Gate 2) were entertained by two teams who could actually play with good passing and movement. All of our u23s would put the experienced pros in our first team to shame with the quality of their first touch and accuracy of passing.
We had wing backs who actually could both defend and attack (and have an end product when they got forward), centre backs who could do all the basics of defending but were actually comfortable with the ball on the floor and could pass to teammates instead of just lumping it forward, midfielders who could pass and move and run past opponents with the ball and forwards who were quick and not afraid to get shots away.
