staines_rebel_Jr Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 http://www.sloughtownfc.net/article/1231/Looking-Ahead:-Windsor On paper this should be our easiest friendly but in reality it could still be a tough test. Our last pre season match with Windsor proved to be harder than expected with a very physical Windsor winning 4-1. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlenSTFC Posted July 31, 2017 Share Posted July 31, 2017 If we play like we did in the second half against WBA we should destroy Windsor tomorrow night (yes I know I've written their team talk for them... ?) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sir Rebel1965 Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 6-0 against a club which has seen better days and better shirts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlenSTFC Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 See I was right! Although I wouldn't say we played as well as we did v WBA. We did score some lovely goals tonight and as the score line suggests it was very comfortable. There were a couple of sloppy defensive lapses but nowt too much to worry about.

3spirit Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 We ought to beat a team three divisions lower than Slough but what was noticeable was how good every Slough player was tonight,in terms of skill,strength and commitment. After a slow start,we got into our stride and scored a couple of goals,which seemed to take the initial wind from the sails of a lively Windsor team. As the game wore on, the gap in class between the sides was obvious, and what was pleasing Slough looked easily capable of raising their game up a few levels. Manny Williams had another blinding game and for me was Slough's best player on the night. Have a new nickname for Guy Hollis, that of 'The Tank'. He robustly smashes anything in his way and destroys the opposition ! He is not a dirty player but he sure is a strong one. So glad he plays for our team.

Reading Rebel Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 The most pleasing aspect, apart from the scoreline, was the attitude of the players. It would have been very easy for the players to take it a bit easy after the hard game against WBA but every player put a shift in and looked up for it. Again some very good performances, some very good goals scored and most importantly by the sounds of it no injuries. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GlenSTFC Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 2 leagues below if Windsor are Hellenic Premier? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reading Rebel Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Didn't notice it myself but someone at the game said that Guy limped off the pitch leaving us to finish the game with 10 men. Judging by the interview given by Bakes hopefully there is nothing to be concerned about. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jon Underwood Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Just a bit tight in his hamstring, no problem at all Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
3spirit Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 2 leagues below if Windsor are Hellenic Premier? Yes tried to edit that from three to two, after realising my mistake when I was writing it but for some reason the site isn't functioning well and wouldn't let me. However Windsor are not one of the best sides in the Hellenic Premier, although I'm expecting an improvement from their form of last season in the Combined Counties, I don't see them as promotion candidates and were hardly a match for our boys tonight, as you rightly pointed out, Glen.

Game of Throw-ins Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 Another good pre-season win, the players have been performing well and hopefully they can transfer this to the start of the League campaign. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

redwine rebel Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 Yes Manny did, and he is becoming one of my favourites !! and as for Guy being called 'The Tank' I can think of much better names Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reading Rebel Posted August 2, 2017 Share Posted August 2, 2017 I think Manny got 10/20 minutes in the second half and the rumour is Sue was in attendance just to look at his ageing but lovely legs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
