PLayed our first friendly against Brentford, the league 2 champions, so only 1 division seperation, and the tractor boys ran out 3-1 winners with goals from Lee Martin, Conor Wickham and Jordan Rhodes. Pablo Counago missed the match with more groin injuries and our new manager Keane was rather happy with the way the game was handled. Maybe a good season is to follow.

Srimps (Southend) V Blues tonight. 7.45 k/o, will update soon with result. EDIT: Town won 2-0 against the Scrimps. Later in the week we played Clacton and won 7-2. . A mainly reserve squad for town, so looks a good squad if the reserves can do that well . In other news, Colin Healy joins Town from Cork (Rep Ire).

Town beat Real Valladolid 3-1 in a great send off for the legendry manager Sir Bobby Robson.
Not bad beating top tier Spanish team!
Also beat Bury 2-1. So that makes a rather good pre-season with a lot of victories, only real loss to Cork!
On transfer news: Town have signed on loan 19 yr old Jack Colback from Snuderland til Jan. He has been capped at U20.
