    Bizarre team selection!!
    Looks like 3-5-2 with Pat Jones & Smith as WBs.
    2 LBs in the squad but neither playing 1st half.
    Can’t believe Butler thinks this is even worth a trial.
    Same as last season, trying WBs when he didn’t have any and hasn’t signed any.

    Interesting start:-
    ” Early chance for the Iron as Brennan is released down the right, forcing a crucial interception to clear the his low cross.”

    Brennan not in the starting XI

    The number 5 should never be in any formation Scunthorpe United plays.

    It is negative.

    Agree with all the above. 5 at the back first half looked clueless.

    Butterfield and Jones tried hard to create something. Rest of the didn’t seem to know what position they were playing. A (very slightly) better team than App Frod would have punished us first half. I’m not a professional coach of course but is playing 3 centre backs without a left footer amongst them ever a good idea?
    Especially when you play a right footed right back as your left sided man.

    Must be saving our left sided centre backs for the second half. Oh no Evans and Barrows right footed as well. Oh shit we don’t have a left sided centre back at the club. We had best keep pretending left back Horton is a centre back then.

    Bit better second half with the players at least looking like they knew where to be. Zero chances for Frod. Richards and Beestin pretty decent. Rest OK.

    Rose off injured again (groin) which is a concern.

    Won’t be bothering with the 5 hour round trips for the next 3 friendlies.
