Deevers Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 (edited) Well I’m glad I resisted the temptation to have a look on here last night. I have never been a fan of “friendly” games unless there is some actual purpose to them like a testimonial etc. Generally speaking I avoid them like the plague as there is no competitive edge to them and players are generally playing well within themselves. More so with pre season ones where they are almost on the same level as “kick abouts” looking at the lineups and changes there is little doubt the first half was a bit of a sharpen up excercise for most of our stick on starters. The rest of the game seemed to be about giving others game time. I’d expect to see the Leeds game being that bit more competitive given its being played in front of paying fans. All in all though too many on here with far to high expectations as to what these closed door games are all about.

johnking123 Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 As I have said before. Don't care for friendlies. But we do seem to be conceding and not scoring a lot. Still feel it shoud not have been Naismith and co in charge. Time tell I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I want to see Wilson with my own eyes and see what sort of player he is , and how the management team plan to utilise him I want to see Boyce and Beni after so long out and remind my self of what we have been missing from them in terms of how they connect with other players I want to see Kent and get an idea of how he connects with the midfield and who ever he is partnered with at the back Most of all I want to sink some pints with mates and have a laugh in the pub before and after Im going cos my brother in law is a Leeds supporter (and a Staggie, his fam are yorkshire but grew up in Dingwall) and his daughter is trying to support Liverpool which is killing him!! Haha. Its a missionary project. If not for that, doubt id go. But your reasons are what interest me now i am going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigAlim Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 As daft as it is to base opinions on friendlies (I remember Grzelak looking quite handy in preseason) I have went for the hospitality on Sunday as it happens to fall on my birthday. Listed in the package is the following: Pre-match panel with past players who have played for both Hearts and Leeds United There aren’t many players who meet this criteria, off the top of my head I can think of Mark de Vries, Patrick Kisnorbo, Glyn Snodin and Joe Jordan (and of course Zal RIP) Can anyone come up with other possibilities?

Easley and then beat a Championship team a week later last pre season . The results means absolutely zilch and has zero bearing on the season ahead .

The fact that most games have been behind closed doors probably tells us there has been a fair bit of experimentation going on re systems etc. The one thing we have is under them we played fairly well the last 6 games of the season so it would be a major shock if we have regressed as badly as the friendly results suggest . Sunday will tell us a lot as we will probably treat this as close to a competitive game as we will see this season. As a pairing yes but McAvoy especially has been involved in plenty pre-seasons working under Alex Neil and then would have been in charge of pre-season while Preston manager himself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
