We know very little about this game, other than we scored 3!

It was obviously aimed at the ‘fringe’ players, such that they got minutes in the legs.

So, possible line-up:

Lawlor
Sterry
Grehan
McGrath
Senior
Close
Crew
Gotts
Ajeyi
Hanlan / Olusanya
Middleton

???

Yeah an odd one to drop the Facebook post which is seemingly positive, but again we do not know the result.
Maybe the other club want it silent, thought I would ask as there is usually some that know this stuff, even when it’s behind closed doors.

Doesn't say we won either we may have scored 3 but if we let in 7 then it's not really positive

We must have one of the strongest second 11s in the EFL

In league one maybe but the whole of the EFL is a bit of a stretch do you not think?

We have a good second eleven but I’m not sure it’s the strongest in League 1.
We were only fed that we scored 3 goals.
We don’t know if we won who we played in this game.
I would suggest the defenders are good and interchangeable. The midfield players are okay but we don’t have a direct replacement for Broadbent and Bailey. Our second string attack is the concern because the first string is not the best in the league. So let’s not get carried away

Are highlights available or is there’s some contractual NDA where they can’t show the game lol

Devils advocate aswell…would it be possible for these types of games to be ticketed? Even if only 2000 people went still a revenue generated? Just thinking out loud .

Well it wouldn't be a behind closed doors game if the doors were open to spectators...

Why does the score matter in a behind closed doors practise match, whose purpose is player fitness surely.??

well when you rely on 2nd info you have to believe what you are told, do you not.
I think behind closed doors gives a clue to how these things work!

next you will be saying it was 1-1 at half time and Ben close goal was a free kick and chipped the keeper not long into the 2nd half
