When was the last time we had a decent (winning) pre-season?

Jesus, pretty much a first 11 and we're losing to Newport County.
Or did Pulis (with his Newport love) make sure we didn't win.

We never win in preseason, doesn't stop people getting all shitty and suicidal about it  It's about fitness and team bonding not form and results. |

Crewe beat Wolves 2-1
Pre-season results count for absolutely nothing

We are destined for relegation!!
Of course we aren't!
Pre-season is all about having a kickabout and preparing for the season ahead.
We don't get any points in our pre-season matches.

Lovely to see Kenwyne miskick the equaliser after Walters had missed a sitter!

- We concede more goals than you'd expect off crosses and set pieces, needs to be sorted.
- Few good performances, impressed with Ethers especially.
- Played some decent stuff and didn't see much long ball, although we were only against Newport County so I'm not expecting
Barcelona Brighton style football against Chelsea.
- Ethers was wearing number 11, was this because its pre season or has he changed numbers? Also was it Pennant on the right in the white boots? Thought it was Soares because he was wearing number 7 and didn't have Pennant's hair but I thought JP was meant to be playing.
