If theres music who cares.. focus on the atmosphere instead of looking for a negative

Whitehall is a strange one for such a big lad, he goes down far too easy and is always looking for the foul instead of going for goal. The second half one when he was virtually through on goal then fell over like he was pole axed was pathetic, the ref got the decisions around Whitehall’s so called fouls against just about right IMO, the ref however overall was poor. I know it’s from a different time and laws have changed over the years but Steve Torpey would have had that Scarborough centre back for breakfast, dinner and tea after the first twenty minutes. Agree about Whitehall, grow up FFS.
Oh you mean when he was actually tripped up when through on goal?

Why.. because they lost a meaningless friendly?

Fitzsimons, Barrows, Kougun, Evans, Denton, Kelly, Scales, Clunan, Roberts, Law, Whitehall all played.
What’s next?
I know its only a friendly on a shocking pitch but any stand out performances , how did the newbies do ??
Seems like a fair few rocked up over 2000 ..
Fitzsimons – Can tell he’s a pretty good keeper, very vocal, always wanted a pass back, good distribution BUT he is very calm for my liking when attackers are closing him down he nearly got caught out.
Barrows – Best of the 2 CB’s in the 2nd half for me, seemed to be quite composed on the ball and even when attacking he didn’t look like a defender who had stayed upfront as he had a decent touch and didn’t panic.
Kougun – Didn’t have that much to do really, fairly solid player
Evans – Didn’t realise we had a man mountain as a CB till I saw him, should cause alot of problems in the oppositon box
Denton – Wanted to go forward alot more than he did, quite nippy and should be a threat, lack of height might go against him
Kelly – Didn’t see much action got forward well to link up with Law at times
Scales – Very impressive RB even though he’s a midfielder (I’m led to believe?) Got forward at every opportunity, quick and brilliant joining the attack
Clunan – Can’t say I saw much of him, got the ball a few times and gave it to a teammate without hassle
Roberts – Not the quickest of wingers but has the ability to turn full backs inside out, hopefully stays fit as he would be a dangerous player for us
Law – Did well on the left when doubled up at times had alot of the ball and should’ve scored when through on goal but dragged wide
Whitehall – Didn’t seem to get much service but think he will be an absolute nonsense to everyone including the officials

Madden must be the most overrated player in the last 20-30 years of the club’s history, I think people just romanticise him because we’ve had so much dross since he left. But he was nowhere near the strikers who had come in the years before him (not fit to lace Hayes’ boots, for example).
Wootton has definitely matured physically and in terms of understanding his game since leaving the Iron but there was definitely potential there. He was better than anyone signed to replace him.
Always thought Jarvis looked pretty decent for me, although never likely to be that prolific he could have made an adequate own brand Steve Torpey for us this season.
Nowhere near the most overrated.. 100% top professional who always gave his all and rarely injured.
