Well unless Patrick are really crap! and bearing in mind we have several senior players out I think that bodes well. I shall sleep well tonight. Unless I win the lottery ...then I won't sleep at all.

The article didn't say Stephens wasn't in Spain, just that he wouldn't be playing a match. He posted a picture on Instagram of the game in progress (from behind the dugout), stating he was watching with his ankle on ice, so he is out there.

Pinatar Arena issued an updated teamsheet without Stephens on it (he was replaced by Brad Barry). He is out there though.

Watched the game on my phone from the Ile de Re so a bit limiting but thought we looked ok in parts with some good passing although our defence looked a bit dodgy. Good run out against a side probably not much above the level of Lewes but it was their second game and as with everyone in pre season a bit leggy through over training.
We need a few in don't we but it'll happen.

Love Ile de Re. Get yourself down to Ars en re
Appropriately named (well Ernest would say so)
Was there at lunchtime for some moules frites on our way between the beach at Phare des Baleines and afternoon beverages by the harbourside at St Martin.Really one of my very favourite places

I must say I thoroughly enjoyed that game friendly it might have been but many fine performances by the youngsters, and last seasons youngster are no more, very mature men who knew what they were doing
great stuff.
and yes I know it was only Partick Thistle

Enjoyed that - looked good in parts and organised...
Also any Nathan Jones knockers hopefully heard some of his input today. Very astute instructions being issued & clearly has a good reading of the game - could hear he'd done his badges & learnt!
A word on Kemy, who many on twitter said looked good. Have to say from what I saw (30mins it so of first half) I thought he played several aimless hoofs upfield. He's not overweight, he's well built, but did seem a bit leggy in the fitness stakes. He also played a worldy of a pass through to CMS & did some short intricate passes. I guess we saw the good & bad parts of his game today...
Solly March confirmed what an important player he's gonna be for us this year - looked much better in behind the front man. Have to say I hope we don't play CMS in that position under Sammi as he's def not a lone striker. Lessons learnt from that game IMO which is a good thing...
We need 6 or 7 players IMO - seriously lacking in depth..

I could only watch the first 40 minutes of it and Kemy Agustien wasn't getting the ball much and when he did he lost it straightaway. I am not writing him off. He was superfluous in his midfield position and he tried lots of things that just did not come off. I wasn't very impressed with what I saw. Seemed like more of the same. Forster-Caskey was best I thought. But despite being best he wasn't actually causing Thistle any trouble. I think Sami has a bit of a job on his hands.

I'm glad you saw Kemy the same as me as lots on twitter were tweeting him saying how good he was. I counted 3 or 4 pretty aimless floating balls up top to the small CMS - which the PT CBs dealt with with great ease. Just an observation, nice to see him back though...

Albion expect that Dunk's injury wasn't serious - "just a kick on the foot"

We look weird in all blue. Never really noticed that at Lewes.
Yes we do, kept on telling everyone we should have white shorts.
Very good news
