Appreciate all that’s been said about the non-importance of pre-season friendly results -‘Minutes in legs’ et al.
Just can’t help noticing that in recent years we’ve attracted the likes of Rangers & Everton for these games, whilst now we’re up against Crewe, Tranmere, Accy, with the only ‘big names’ being WBA & Sunderland.
Are we now not attracting bigger teams for friendlies? Club decision to scale things down, given likely continued L1status, or am I reading too much into it?
Good/realistic thing to manage expectations?
