Friendly

[Southwick_Seagull]

Has it not occured to you the players probably worked there nuts off in training today?

I did say that they played at half pace because it was a friendly in my first comment. Was just an observation that the squad is not the quickest, Gus seems to take realiable, solid players such as Painter, Greer, Nav etc over quicker players like Tunni and McNulty. Not saying that's a negative just that it may lead it us becoming a bit one paced, we looked good with both Benno and Lua Lua on the flanks last season, I'm sure if he comes back on loan there will be no problem.

We are about to sign a 35 year old midfielder as well.

Once we get a winger and hopefully a quick striker i still can't help thinking we lack a quality signing in central midfield.
I still have doubts over Nav.I like Dicker alot but i don't think he is the answer either.

Don't forget we still have the two Argies chomping at the bit to get a look in.

Maybe the pace and attacking qualities will come from one or both of them?

I hope so but they are gambles at the end of the day.I suppose we can still sign another player permanently up untill the end of Aug.That's about 6-7 competitive games to assess the squad.

Greer and Kish were a class above everyone else on the pitch last night

We HAVE made this signing already. His name is Matt SPARROW.

Keep up at the back.

No. It was a very pleasant evening though. Interesting to see some of the new faces.

and good to see some familiar ones too

he is probably my new favourite player because when he has the ball, all the other players shout "SPAZ, SPAZ" or "SPAZ I'm free" or "Pass it SPAZ"

Really?

That is BRILLIO.

Was there a penalty shootout again?

No... they announced that there would be one... but it never happened.

 

[hans kraay fan club]

Does GUS call him SPAZ, too?

I can't wait for some of GUS' post match interviews this season to hear his views on SPAZ, CHINO and BATTY boy.

Another RIP OFF

Radostin Kishishev and his agent are considering a one-year deal while Agustin Battipiedi and Cristian Baz still await international clearance to make their debuts.

I am astounded at the unbelievable negativity of posters on here, it was a 2 bob pre season friendly against a half decent non-league side...Poyet has to experiment, so i for one would rather he did it during pre season than when league 1 starts! And like he keeps saying, even after the Burgess Hill win...RESULTS DON'T MATTER...its all about match fitness!

 

[thebazillionaire]

This is all turning out weird, Baz(Name)Spaz(My disability)Batti(you can work that one out) .......where are my three signing on fees?

Agree wholeheartedly, Why get worked up by a game that means absolutley nothing & was organised as nothing more than a money maker for Whitehawk.

From my observations like the look of Greer & Kishishev was a class above

 

[BensGrandad]

Whitehawk will feast on their victory for a long time.

 

[FalmerforAll!**]

IT DOESNT f***ing MATTER...... how many times do we have to say this.
ITS MATCH FITNESS>>>>>THE RESULT DOESNT MATTER >>>AAAAGGGGHHHHHHHHHHH

What an utterly stupid thing to post in response to a decent summary of what happened! He even says at the end he thinks things will improve, and you're having a go at him Maybe other people, like myself, wanted to hear a fellow supporter's view on the match? Just a thought, like.

And rightly so. I thought they looked a decent side and their goalkeeper was brilliant.

Good finish for their first goal as well.
