Barnton AFC vs Witton Albion (Friendly).

Hoping to provide updates from today’s game but with people being away on holiday, it depends what news is available.

Hi Wheels,

Andrea has asked me to deputise for her, whilst she is on holiday.

What’s the best way to feed you information (I was hoping to post photos on your facebook account using my phone if I work out the techy bits - I don’t believe they have any internet at the ground).

Sent you a Private message TT.

I will be doing updates on the ‘Not Official Witton Albion Facebook page’ so you could just copy my updates if you wish

Thanks Matt, there is always a way round things.

A decent workout, pretty competitive not that friendly ! Our new keeper had a decent game the retained players all looked the part as you would expect and of the new lads, Gary Roberts looked a class act, Dean Warburton also looked good but like our new midfield enforcer Beaumont looked a bit of the pace fitness wise, defence looked a bit jittery tbh but heard players saying the pitch which looked ok was actually very hard and bobbly ? So that wouldn’t help ? other than that hard to say much on the others with so many changes Stottie looked in decent nick didn’t see Lee Cropper so assume he was away as was the manager. Will be a stiffer test on Tuesday v Altiy but we look like we could be quite good with our strongest 11 out in div 1 north, time will tell.
