Blackpool 0-1 Newcastle United (FT) post-match discussion from p12


Recommended Posts

Ben Arfa looked way off the pace against Pacos like, touch and movement was pathetic.

 

:thup:

Isn't that the point of pre season games though; to gain fitness?

 

Maybe they think he'd benefit more from a few days extra fitness work before playing against St. Mirren on Tuesday?

Obviously, I find it strange though.

This has been probably the most pointless pre-season I can remember. Poor results, poor opposition, no signings, same problems, poor fitness and bans.

 

So basically last summer with an extra suspension? :lol:

To be fair, at least now when they get left behind they've got that Downey lass to do some proper fitness work with them. I just imagine it's normally just Fat Derek making them do laps. :lol:

Not the most, probably on a par with every other hastily arranged pre-season we do (Last year, year before etc). Never seem to have a plan. Why don't we line up games against bigger teams, I just don't get it

Why bother? It's avoidable work.

 

I'm actually surprised we've got a home friendly this year - especially one that will probably end up costing money.

Lucky they got to Portugal given AP's dislike of Europe.
