Blimey , i know you can't tell much from pre-season but i would still hazard a guess that you
lot will be pushing for the title!

Kings Lynn result particularly impressive.

Yes, things have gone really well in pre-season, even more so when you consider our manager never had all our first team squad available at the same time!

As for the league title, I'll let you know in 38 games time!

We'd already played Tuesday and Thursday that week and our new striker Dubi Ogbonna was injured in the first half thanks to a "robust" tackle from behind.

NSR hadn't played for 9 days and they have last season's UCL-winning manager (Long Buckby's Glen Botterill) in charge now.

Our goal was in the 84th minute, there's was in the 89th!

As I said, despite our good pre-season, we've won nothing yet!
