    A goal was coming, but not like that.
    Inexcusable.

    Garner Ball in full flow there  :#
    This again, but for us, and it was really good.

    Great passing and movement from Charlton. Fraser’s ball to Kirk was sublime.

    Fraser looking really promising. Egbo's been good other than the howler. 

    A certain someone has been gutlessly hiding and occasionally passing it to Kilmarnock on the edge of our box

    Missed the goal first time, that replay is hilarious. Best to get em out the way in pre-season.

    Why is Egbo playing left back?
    Because we don't have one? 
    But why would you play your new right back there? Seems odd. Play JFC there. Give the new guy the right back slot on his first outing I would’ve thought. Anyway, it’s a friendly so no big deal,

    Pre season match v Swindon at the Valley? Terry on the button as usual.

    Would guess he wants to see all midfielders in their natural position to make a judgement call on them. Henry obviously got the short straw and been pushed out to right back.

    our senior players are ignoring Leaburn he is hardly getting the ball unless he gets an interception.

    It's a glorified training session.  I doubt we will see Henry at right back again either, or Leaburn on the wing. 

    22 players have all got to play somewhere.

    In all fairness, JFC only had one game there that I can remember. Better off using a Wing back to play that role whatever the side.

    Wasnt impressed early on when, that someone (I presume we're thinking about the same player) was close to Leaburn on the half-way line, both stood there with neither going for a loose ball that Killie collected.

    The senior player gestured to Leaburn as if to say: "That was your ball", but looked a lot closer to it himself.

    As a senior player he had to take charge of that situation!!

    I am very surprised about where Aaron Henry is expected to play in this game.

    To be fair, a top flight Scottish team are struggling against a English third tier team.

    Not a great look - Especially when their League / Cup campaign starts next week

    Would you rather he didn't play at all?

    Who are already 3 matches into their pre-season and essentially played there best team for the first 70 minutes as well.

    I'd say we've looked the better side. 

    They capitalised on a mistake from a player on his wrong side.

    Lovely ball from Gilbey to Kirk... Now... Was it it intentional?

    He was actually aiming to kick it back to JoJo...

    Disgraceful from Stockley not passing to Leaburn then.
