So, Slip's pre-season started today with a 6-2 win over a Downs side (Jersey something or other??). A makeshift defence that changed for each half did pretty well all things considered. Good to give a couple of debuts to some of the YTS.

I thought we played some good stuff at times, although obviously looked a bit rusty in patches too, the hard pitch not helping. Fitness looked fairly good Turps, and I even shoved one of their defenders who was taller than me off the ball, so your strength training must be working. Roll on the battle of the baptists next week....

I've got an easy one for him - don't play Kirby.

Good run out, enjoyed it, was fun. Never will I be more embarassed to score a right footed goal
