Decent workout and a great afternoon for the club.
Steve Wales looked good again, probably our most dangerous player over the ninety minutes. Tom Coulton had another good game and couldn't have done too much about any of the goals. I think we're lucky to have a back-up goalkeeper like Tom, especially considering his age.
A couple of the goals were a little disappointing to concede; you have to be switched on at corners against League sides and I'm not sure what went on when we appeared to fall asleep at a throw-in.
Anyway, hopefully we'll be back amongst the goals against Eastleigh on Tuesday night.

I enjoyed the day, a good match and a good afternoon. I thought when you had the ball you looked dangerous, however we controlled so much possession your chances were limited. Good luck this season!

And to you, itkplatypus. Well done to both clubs for getting everything sorted at what was relatively short notice.

Good to see our highlights shown on Sky Sports News, even if the result wasn't what we would've liked!

Joe Welch had an ankle injury it seems.

20/21 years old, plays up front or on the left, released by Brentford. (That's what a quick google suggests, anyway)

As others have said a very enjoyable afternoon and I thought we gave a good account of ourselves. One slight disappointment for me was that the good attendance seemed to be almost exclusively a result of Watford fans, with the number of Saints fans not that much greater than you expect for a normal league match. This is just a impression, I do not have solid evidence to back it up I was sitting in the stand and it felt like a away match. I understand that pre-match publicity was (unavoidably) a bit limited and that some people are on hoilday but thought that more St Albans locals would have been drawn in by a very reasonable (bargain)admission price and the promise of a strong Watford team
