Really take us into the season on a high will that..... NOT!

Not all doom and gloom though. We've had poor pre seasons in the past and gone on to have a good season. The reverse has also been true for DCFC. It's all, supposedly, about getting minutes in the legs they say and I think we have way too few of them. I hope I'm wrong.

Its about the normal number and there will be some behind closed doors matches at training grounds. I think too much is made of pre season, its fitness, teamwork trying tactics etc. and thats not restricted to actual games so dont see how many we have matters at all.
