Thanks' Tony, was any indication given as to what the attendance was?

For ten points, when was the last time (apart from yesterday) we wore change colours on The Turf?

A group of Lazio fabs in “The Boot” in the eve after the match …………simply enjoying their trip……

All set now for the real business………

I mentioned the Stoke game in the report, Coyle’s first in charge, but I bet there could have been one in a friendly since.

Nothing said unfortunately. It’s difficult to guage it when you are sat up in one stand and can’t see all areas but it looked bigger than I was expecting. I’ll hopefully find out at some point.

It was a friendly.

[ClaretTony]

It was a friendly.

I suspected there might have been another friendly but I’ve no idea which.

Hannover? Think we played in white. Done it with a blue kit as well, forget who against

Just checked the Hannover report on UTC and definitely played in white. Good shout.

[burnmark]

Yes it was Hannover if I’m correct. All white kit with the ‘clarets’ wording that made it look like horizontal pin stripes.

You have proven me wrong. Wore the sky blue away kit against Parma at home.

Didn’t we play in our yellow away kit in the FA Cup against a Hyde Utd in 1983? This was switched to the Turf although we were originally drawn away

[Papabendi]

know it matters not for friendlies but there was a little bit of disappointment when none of the three more recent signings were all missing, not even on the bench

What does this mean?

[Mike47]

Thank you Tony, very fair report.

SP explained the reasons in his post match interview.
