Quote: ThePrinter "On the going with form you've got to weigh it up by remembering the standard of opposition in these games and how many games/minutes players have had. It's ok looking good vs Doncaster and some American team in a game played with 4 quarters but it's a different level starting next weekend. Also often in pre-season you'll find the expected starters are just looking to ease their way back into match fitness whilst the fringe and young lads will push harder trying to impress and will usually have been back in training a lot earlier.
I'm certain the other SL clubs will have plenty of starters next week who had little involvement in pre-season games picked ahead of young lads who played in quite a few games.'"
Not sure I know what is going on here Printer.
But I have found myself agreeing with you more than once this year
Yes you have a point about the opposition not being that clever.
I do hope though that if one or two "shoe ins" fail to perform others are given a chance even if it is to see how good they really are.
