Anybody got anything to add other than the official line?

Nothing much to be brutally honest Poor match which seemed to consist of not trying to get injured, bit of a non-event

Got some pics and still some from Bury to upload later.

Thought so, nobody wants to miss the first game - including our strikers.

Apparently Webber and Henderson have got slight knocks so weren't included in the trip, Blackwell said on RS afterwards.

Very few players shone and Huddersfield seemed quite content to kick and elbow lumps out of our lot... pretty much meaning no one wanted to stay on the ball very long.

There was a torrential downpour in the first half which made things a bit miserable and Paddy wore a new keepers top

Yeah I noticed how dirty they were, not often I get up and start shouting at oppostion players at a friendly but they were a very dirty side.

I thought that when Sun Jihai and springs came on for the last 15 mins we looked better and got up and down the pitch better. Anyone else aagree?

Oh and how poor was there crowd announcer said crwod was 3,500 not ssure how many blades were there but looked like over 1,000.

Yeah, neither were given a great deal of time but Spring definitely looked lively.

I think the game was dead by that point though... nobody wanted to get their legs hacked in half

Oh and how poor was there crowd announcer said crwod was 3,500 not sure how many blades were there but looked like over 1,000.

We were surprised they'd opened two stands for their fans, what was the point really?
