It's all coming together.

Battered Everton. Yes it's a friendly, but we looked so much better than them. Outclassed them.

Excellent news on Palmer joining us. Young, but has experience of the top end of the league. Where we will be aiming for.

You can see now, well unless you are an idiot and started moaning in July, exactly what is happening. What Mowbray has said all along. I love how cool he is, and how we now do business as club.

Nmache returns from tour on Monday. He will be with us by Wednesday what a top quality player he is.

We have said we are still going for either/or Chapman and Armstrong. We are just holding out to try get Armstrong on loan for a season. We will pay his wages, we just want the loan. And buy him at the end of the season, IF he develops. Chapman due to his injuries, can only be a loan option.

All these players represent England at Under 23, U19 and U19. He is adding to the solid squad we have already, a squad of young, class players. Without spending stupid money.

There will always be the Saxo's, but at times like this, they must feel quite stupid. Maybe not. BRFC's will go into meltdown next season, when Dack starts to rip that division apart.

Lenihan looks class, Evans looks good. Samuel scored! That's all he was short of. Williams wasn't playing as he was injured, but Bell looked very good. I could go on .....

Once Armstrong, Nmache, Palmer and maybe Chapman come in, which will be around midweek next week, this team suddenly looks very very dangerous.
Huge competition at the top end of the pitch.

Yes, I'm known for being positive. But it's so clear we are handing in such a good direction. And the more the Saxo's desperately search for some thing to moan about, the stronger we are becoming. And the more idiotic these cretins look.

Personally, I'm looking forward to the season, I knew it would come together. Like I knew we'd go up.
Like I know we are going to cause a real stir next season. Get ready for the ride gents.

I've been away overnight. I must admit, I didn't expect to come back to such a score-line.
Yes - only a pre-season, but that must be excellent for confidence and morale.
An extra encouraging thing: it was last season's team!

I've watched extended highlights now. Good finishing. Let's hope we can take that into the league games.

I must admit if we can sign nmache and Armstrong,then suddenly we go from a team bottom 6-7 to possibly just possibly just outside the play offs
Starting to feel positive after that Palmer deal.
