Said it for a while now, Gareth Heath is mustard. Leiston have a good player on their hands.

Looking forward to the "debrief" on todays game. I hope we are just shaking out the squad and will be on the money come the 10th of August.
Its always funny during pre-season and never the definitive until the first kick-off of the season.

We were 2nd best all over the pitch today against a Leiston team that were well organised.
Dont recall a save their keeper had to make, and apart from hitting the bar early on we rarely
threatened.

That's not good news. I sometimes wonder if we play too many friendlies. It's one thing having a go a the likes of Portsmouth and Southend but by the time it comes to playing teams in the leagues below us, we probably just want to get on with the season proper.

It's easier to pull out all the stops against higher opposition than it is to have the discipline to do the same against lower sides. Consistency is the name of the game.

The last two seasons we have been beating teams at the top of our table and then losing against much lower ones. I agree with Ozbrit but it's a problem we need to fix. As I have said before, we possibly need to psyche our players up a bit in the warm up. They are starting off too casually and lacking aggression, in my opinion.
That said, Leiston have a good record and were probably trying very hard to put one over us as we did to West Ham and Southend!

Yeah it's no surprise that our players are not likely to keep up the same kind if intensity away at the likes of witham n Leiston as they would against west ham n Portsmouth, especially when there are so many of them. Just being on the proper stuff now
