Certainly was a disjointed team, but credit there goalkeeper with some fine saves and handling the crosses with confidence.
Stringfellow had Wayno under control for most of the night and until he went off with a leg injury, I thought some of the passes from GF were excellent. I wonder if he would be useful as a sort of mentor for the younger lads in the reserves? Although he might be looking for a full time contract.
NW needs a few more games to get him back to the form he had last season.
Jimbo's non appearance was more of a precaution I understand.
For those who wondered who the guy sat with Jimbo and Stanners in the stand was, he's an Aussie football agent and a former goalkeeper, who was involved in bringing BR to the club so he told a couple of us at half time. Evidently in touch with Sammy on a regular basis. At first we thought he may have been the mystery striker but evidently not. The news that Larkin isn't signing due to finance may suggest that no further incomers are envisaged. Alternatively it could suggest that money has been allocated for the additional striker? No doubt all will be revealed sooner or later.
City look to have put together a useful squad and I hope they do well.
