Pre-season (Match Threads Here)

[Trowel]

2nd half has effectively been vs Newcastle reserves TBF

[Trowel]

[Dchans]

Typical - go to give the boss the dustpan and brush and miss the third goal

Ffs

[Shogun]

I really hope Aznou plays his way into the team this season, he's got so much more in his locker than Myko

[Blues Mahoney]

George again, absolutely taking the piss

[Dchans]

Thanks Trowel

[TheRam]

This is great.

The ball through the lines, the run from Armstrong, George getting back into the box, the ball, the turn, the shot.

Brilliant goal.

[CorkyOnTour]

Hackney is a very clever footballer

[blueToffee]

It's been a good game, but I'm looking at the opposition right now and eeesh. After a bright start Newcastle have looked unrecognisble, perhaps the 10 changes maybe signaled how they were viewing the game though.

Still plenty to be positive about regardless.

[Shogun]

No clean sheet (shock)

[Lincs Toffee]

Had to be Barnes that scores against us again

Decent performance with some promising signs

[MmmBlueBranthwaite]

Hackney is a very clever footballer

And so damn handsome

[Cozzie]

A lot to like there.

Defence is still terrifying though.

[TrevorSteven]

Lots of positives.
Got the feeling that we have enough quality going forward.
Defense look dangerous. The structure is good but it's way too many slow players.
We need a new right back, new left back and I would also have wanted a dynamic, strong and fast DM.
Newcastle fans must be worried - they may be in for a difficult season.

[blueToffee]

Only problem if we do get a new RB (which we obviously should) is that I don't know where Rohl gets as much game time.

You could say similar about Grealish now too with Johnson already in, as we want George and Dibling to be getting game time too.

Moyes might need to learn about rotation.
