I'm assuming that given the negative vibes on here I might as well not turn up next season? Don't really want to waste my Saturday's if we are going to be crap.

Do you think all those players will start in our last friendly. Hughton surely must play a team that will be very close to the Forest line up, or what is the point of these friendlies?

i think you know that clubs see friendlies as match fitness...trying different combinations etc....but hey if you want to join in the general negativity ..do carry on.

Hemed - Untried untested.
Baldock - Yet to show any kind of talent.
KLL - a 20 minute 1 trick show pony.
Dunk - May not even be at the club, this time next week
Bruno - Inconsistent.
Kayal - Pointless playing with 10 mugs
Stockdale - We can't expect him to keep every scoreline 0-0
Bong - Failed at a team worse than us last season.

Oh yeah we're world beaters.

:facepalm: I think you need to reconsider whether supporting a football team is for you...

Think I'll join you, apparently there's a good team in Croydon at the moment, I might go and watch them

Oh get a grip you negative ****. Why even bother supporting the team if you have such little faith? Might as well invest your time in something more worthwhile. My point is, this is a friendly.. Where we are basically playing our second string team (maybe bar Stevens) so basically everyone is getting their knickers twisted over something utterly pointless.
Why bother playing the match if it is pointless ? The full first team should be playing the last 2 friendlies , so at least they might have a clue what they doing when the season starts

I just feel rightly or wrongly that your last friendlies should in the main be taking the shape of the team you intend to start with, getting your team formation correct.
But if you feel that view is negative you are entitled to your opinion. Fitness should in the main be obtained at the training ground.

I don't know why, but it just doesn't work like that. Players only get match fitness by playing matches.

Excellent, very composed. Perhaps we have some decent young strikers at the club.
To be fair, I think he'd have been shot if he'd missed, it was on a plate.
