Impressive second half, some wonderful football second half and great passing for the goals, first half little between them.

Getting the feel of the pitch?

[Awaywego]

Their goalie made some good stops as well, very good second half and the subs didn’t stop the flow like in other games.

Maybe Trinity should have brought on Russ Green to shore up their defence,Mick!?

Possibly starting to see Dean’s thoughts on his first 11.

Only Denton, Boyce and Wilson from the Ilkeston starting 11 in the first half team this evening. Still too sharp for Trinity and while they didn’t create an awful lot they didn’t give the opposition much of a sniff. Clunan and Kelly came on at half time and the Iron started to dominate. Ogle played 1st half but understandably rusty and a bit off the pace.

While each second half substitution seemed to strengthen the Iron the opposite happened to Gainsborough. Some decent play in the second half and Chapman not really having to make a save.

Decent performance but it will be interesting how well we compete from Saturday onwards when we start playing against full timers.

Always nice to wake up to a Scunny win ..an away win ..dont happen often and 6 nowt made me do a double take head shake.

Ogle back great to see still sporting the mullet along with a new mooshtache
I take it Roberts and Butters were rested ?

Still pondering who will be club captain and first choice keeper .

Any more info .. attendance , how many scunny traveled ? was DH there ?

Some super combination moves in the second half but the tackling will be much heavier in real games.
Thought Rance played a decent role in the first half and this was taken over by Clunan in the second half who may have been half a notch better.
Interesting to see Shrimpton get so much time on the pitch.

And Boyce getting plenty of minutes is surprising me a wee bit.

Clunan was touted to be a great signing by KL fans ..in fact if i recall all the newbies that arrived with glowing endorsements ..down to JD n his team to get them playing as a cohesive unit.

Seeing plenty of NLN goals in this side coming from numerous areas not just the forwards.

Will have abetter idea after the remaining pre season fixture which should prove a sterner task.

Not sure on attendance, my guess would have been getting for 1000, healthy following from The Iron but difficult to say how many as no segregation.

Didn’t see DH but I would be surprised if he wasn’t there, seen him at all the other friendlies so far.

Kelly looks to be a great signing, very vocal, nice to see so many leaders on the pitch, something we have lacked for some time.

On a serious note, good to see another clean sheet and goals. That’s what a developing side needs. Good stuff.

Saw a comment last night about it not being too bad if we end up playing at Gainsborough this season. I reckon it will be a crippling financially with the rent and reduced income, coupled with a high wage bill. Sustainable?

[lesgeo]

What number did Kelly wear?

[Iron-awe]

No injuries I’m hoping from last night.
