First defeat

We lost 1-0 to Crusaders tonight
Appears most of the new players and some youngsters got game time. We will definitely need an out and out striker on what I saw tonight. We are back to getting everyone behind the ball and defending really deep even in a friendly,which worries me that this might be our tactics for the season ahead. If so it’s going to be a long hard season. I fully understand it’s only our first competitive game

I think we'll need 2 strikers and 2 wingers. Far, far too early to draw any hard and fast conclusions.

I thought we controlled the majority and tried to pass the ball, albeit with no edge at all. Unsurprisingly without Turnbull and - to a lesser extent - Hastie we look much weaker.

There's little point going ott about a June friendly but a reminder of how much work is to be done.
