Not just the warm up kit looking good, really like the away kit.

Shame there's no stream.

Was just thinking that. Looks very nice. I'm sold on buying this top!

Bell looking very sharp down the wing. Stokes decent in the middle, comfortable on the ball. Also quite like the look of Morrison. 

Fally has been pretty disappointing. Plays with his back to the goal, not really got the movement going and some questionable touches. Positioning needs improving. But it’s only 45 mins….

How do you look good off the ball? It's a modern terminology that means you run around a lot?

My mate's wife looks good off the pi55 which means she pi55es about a lot.

Half time thoughts:

- Although it’s officially a 4-3-3, it’s really not. It’s more like a 4-4-2 without the ball and a variation of 3-4-1-2 or 3-4-3 without it. What was it about not getting hung up on formations?

- However, it’s very lopsided. We’re not using our right side much (because it’s Joseph James and Morrison as opposed to Pring and Bell). Again, not getting hung up there as that will change with more experienced balance

- To echo Fally has been poor. Better last fifteen when we were more using him as a “wall pass” but not great on the ball or decision wise thus far - it is, though, only 45 minutes. The most notable contributions to date have been a volley that hit the roof and nearly having a punch up, I think through frustration

- Stokes very good. Finding a lot of space in pockets and crucially plays on the turn quickly to move defence to attack. Two great balls to Bell - one intricate at the edge of the box that keeper saved from close range and one wide that Bell crossed and the defender got there just before Fally

Decent enough workout thus far.

@Mr Popodopolous you appear to have posted the ENTIRE Aldershot FC Twitter history.

🤣 -it's quite a journey this far down the page now!

I pity the people on mobile, maybe mods can do something? - otherwise I am posting in a classic!!!

Don't think they are going to bring my laptop to the pub.

That was quite the epic scroll.

Fally looks a lump, but a raw one. Highlight was when he squared up to an Aldershot player 😄

Nice to see Bell back running and chasing everything. He's put a couple of crosses in but his team mates have been slow to get in position to meet them.

To be fair Aldershot have matched us, certainly not outclassed

Shame re Fally.

But, as you say, just 45 minutes in a friendly is no time to form an opinion....

Hope he has a better second half.

I didn’t think that was ever going end. Took longer to scroll through that to get to my birth year whenever some site ask for my DOB 

And then you quoted it 😂

Aldershot-ception.

That’s harsh. Pops is a good poster, just had a bit of a Weston with the quote.

Just wait until he unearths their financial data!

And then discovers that they actually folded some years ago.

I'm still reading to find the outcome of all those cup games we had with them in 1988!

Looked like the Twitter feed, I posted it quickly. Apologies.

To be fair to you, it's normally OK to share twitter like that, I've no idea why it shared so much 

One thing to add my mate @westonreddid the same thing last week

It's easy to resolve as long as people didn't keep quoting it 🤦

I am still unsure what occurred there, I shared it in a hurry before nipping off to do some other stuff.

I'll check and check again before sharing Twitter Feeds or similar.

There are some updates not minute by minute but some on the Aldershot Twitter Feed.

Admins have edited your original post. Now we can’t read the 64gb worth of Twitter feed 😔

2-0. Pring with a looping header. 
 

Also Pecover looks a player, proper zippy. 

Not a name who gets brought up much tbf, think he’s one we took from Corsham, or someone around there? Maybe BOA

Yeh. No worries. We all do it from time to time.

I enjoyed reliving Aldershot's 2019 kit release. Made my night.

Don't sweat it. Made me smile after a crap day at work, so lifted my mood - thank you. 👍

Things get too serious on here too often.
