It may sound simplistic but we came out and went back in again. for some reason it kept playing videos instead of live stream. Thanks. I've tried that but still the same sadly. Logged out and back in but it just plays a video with Tommy Conway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Trying to catch up with Newport’s squad numbers for my notes is not the easiest… Good performance though so far - Bell, Wells and Araoye looking good and some bright moments from Williams too imo. I have: Day GK Delaney 3 RCB Trialist A 4 CB Clarke 5 LCB McLoughlin 19 RWB Bondswell 33 LWB (he's done well v Leeson) Wildig 24 DM Bennett 17 CM Wood 22 LF Palmer-Houlden 30 CF Rai 18 RF You have anything different?

Bell is a lot more solid, has more confident finishing, and coming in from the left is opening up shooting opportunities. List the main things you wanted to see improve, and he's nailing it. Well done Sam and coaches. If he can take this formbinto the new season against much better opposition, it could get interesting very quickly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Popodopolous Posted July 22, 2023 Report Share Posted July 22, 2023 Given I haven't seen any of the game, whether he has been tested may make this a moot point. How has Wiles-Richards done or has he been a virtual spectator? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mozo Posted July 22, 2023 Report Share Posted July 22, 2023 Interesting that Rob Atkinson on comms commented that 'there was a case for Alex leaving last year, but it's all about playing games.' Or something to that effect. He said hasn't got a clue who our top 3 will be because the competition is so good. We're focusing on offensive set-pieces to be more productive which let's face it is needed. Also he's impressed with Araoye (as am I!). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike Posted July 22, 2023 Report Share Posted July 22, 2023 With Bell and Conway scoring the way they are you have to assume we'll start with Bell Conway and Sykes/Cornick, most likely Sykes when the season starts. I'm surprised Mehmeti isn't being given a game in AM based on the likely-hood of Scott going, I mean Weimann isn't bad there but he lacks the creativity in the middle, he's better at making runs into the box than making that creative pass, Mehmeti would bring something else in the middle in the sense that if the pass isn't available he could run at the opposition in a dangerous position which would creative space. I like the preseason as a whole, I'm just interested to see how Pearson is going to go into the season, I know right now he's trying things out and getting players fit but I'm genuinely hoping he'll test things out for if Scott leaves. As a whole though we're seeing a solid tactical plan going into the new season, we're getting a lot of players involved in the pre-season and we're seeing players playing hard to try and get in the starting 11, it's almost all positive atm.

George Rs Posted July 22, 2023 Report Share Posted July 22, 2023 I know we know this already, but alex Scott is so unbelievably good at football. No offence to the rest of the team but he’s so clearly the best player on the pitch by such a margin. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even in Div 1 in 1976-80, I don’t think we had this depth. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It makes you wonder with all the transfer speculation and bids, why bother playing and planning these tactical positions if he is going to leave - or maybe not??
