I think the problem was the starting XI. I would expect only Howe and Ogle to be in the Starting XI v Yeovil. Three Triallists played, and it again looked to be 5 at the back. It is difficult to assess these friendlies. No one should be putting their body on the line in case they collect an injury that makes them unavailable for league matches. That said, those playing should be putting enough of a shift in to challenge for a place in the starting day squad, and a number did not do that today. We move on to the next one and at some stage, the starting XI will be very close to the one for the Yeovil game. I still feel we have a stronger squad than last year. Whether it is strong enough to win 100 points plus next season is a moot point.
