Just made a late decision to go. Can we just rock up and pay at the turnstiles?

Anyone go last night? If so were there many decent performances? From the match report it sounds like Barton did well.
Seems like the stronger team will be playing this afternoon though.

Barton (Barts) was an absolute firecracker and his stamina was something else, still pushing as hard in the 89th minute as he did in the 9th. Holmes was solid, quietly worked very hard. Two lads (Njoku and Kaunde) up top were hungry and pressing hard. Kaunde off the ball had an air of Knibbs about him. Ebanks-Blake was a handful when he came on, clearly wanted to make an impact. McKoy came on later so didn’t get to see too much of him, but fell into midfield with Diggers and Nasciglennto well. Dempsey Crace never made it on to the pitch, but was entertaining from the sidelines and is clearly full of energy and character and hopes to be involved tonight.
It was a pretty physical game for a preseason friendly, with Morro eventually losing his s**t in the latter part of the first half, loudly proclaiming one of their forwards (who were very elbow happy) a c**t and having an imploring word with the ref for him to do more to protect our lads.
It was a fun and interesting little game, we were pressing hard and high. We’re definitely going to see something quite different this season. It’s exciting.
Another notes: Something is going on with Diggers’ hair (good) Monk perched cross legged on the drinks cooler all game was very endearing Literally everyone looks incredible in the third kit

Reyes
Ibsen Rossi, Ewens-Finlay, Watts
Bennett, Cousins, Brophy/Kachunga, Brophy/Kachunga
Kaikai, Munday, Lavery
I'm guessing?

Kaikai, Munday, Lavery I'm guessing? If we play the same 5-3-2 formation as yesterday, I’d guess the midfield and attack is: Kaikai-Cousins-Kachunga Monday-Lavery

Seems like Gardner, Smith, Loft etc must be a bit behind fitness wise.
I get they joined into pre season but a it’s a bit of a shame, ideally we’d have Smith and Gardner starting on match day 1 but doesn’t look like they’ll be quite ready for that at this stage.
Hopefully they get some minutes off the bench today at least.

Are all our new midfielders injured already?

No, just not fit enough to start a game.

All these youngsters getting some good minutes, any chance any of them will get a go in competitive games (not the glorified reserve trophy) this season?
It's a big ask, but if they don't get them chances we could end up losing them like Yearn.
