Just back from me hols!

Just got back from scorching hot 30+ degree Kefalonia

Have I missed owt?

 

Just a couple of encouraging friendlies mate.

 

How did we do against the scum yesterday?

I know we beat Hull

 

Lost 2-1

Leeds goals from Blake and Healey. Nads scored for us

 

Lost 2-1

but played well against a very strong White *****.

Cracking goal from Nads.

 

Not too bad then

To be honest I don't think an unbeaten pre-season is necessarily a good thing - manager needs to see how players reacting to being behind etc.

I like the look of the new away kit - is it the same material though as the home kit? Bought the lad home shirt for the hols and he was well chuffed when we got there and I gave him the shirt as a surprise, I might get away one but I wasn't keen on the material.

 

RE: Not too bad then

Yeah, the football was OK - you'll get the gist if you scroll down the board - and from what I've seen I think we have every right to feel confident going into the season.

As to the shirt, I think it looks very smart, one of the best we've had. They were certainly selling well today.

From what I can tell, it's the same material as the home shirt. One point that some would find important is that the Perrys on the back is smaller and higher up - just below the collar. Not nearly so intrusive.

 

RE: Not too bad then

Good about the Perry's logo then - seems the club have taken note of comments.

I also suspect that the players home shirt will have it smaller and higher up.

It was that logo that was putting me off getting one - might get the away shirt now

 

RE: Not too bad then

You're right about the players' shirts - the logo is definitely higher up.

Unfortunately the font and style that the League has chosen for the players' names and numbers is pants, so they look ridiculous even though the Perrys doesn't interfere!

 

RE: Not too bad then

Guess we can't do owt about player's logos and numbers if it's set by the league though

 

How was Kef? went for a day trip from Zante last year. Thought it was beautiful. Did you go in the underground lake thing. and did you eat kefalonia meat pie?

 

It was excellemt.

Went in the underground lake a couple of years ago when we went. Didn't do any trips out this time just pool, beach, pool, beach, bar, pool, restaurant, pool, bar - get the picture?!

Yes we had the Kefalonian meat pie - excellent....as was all the greek food we tried.

Went in one restaurant 5 nights out of 7 it was that good and we got rewarded with free chocolate souffle for dessert twice! Was too stuffed to eat it all though!

 

off to santorini this year, but will sure visit kefalonia probably next year. i love the greek islands. best place visited is lindos on rhodes. very unique town.
