Quote: Once were Loiners "The issue is we should be up for the first game. Everyone should be hyped and ready to go. The only things that are excusably lacking in the first couple of games is execution in attack and maybe a bit of confusion in defence with new players.
I'm not saying the season is done at all, but that really was a bad way to start the year. I'm sure Smith didn't want or expect that either.'"
Nail on head and my thoughts exactly. Its not the defeat, its the manner of it that was the biggest concern and on the back of some woeful pre season performances. Fingers crossed it was a one off.
