I know its only pre season etc, but losing 2 -0 to a bunch of yanks and worse still 4-1 to Newcastle doesn't exactly  augur well for the new season.Remember we haven't Paul Le Guen to fall back on this season either. Hurry back Nakamura

The pre season form at the start of last season wasn't great either but they still won the league at a canter.

Tony catch yourself on!
EG you are just once again showing your bias!
Tony WGS does not givew a fiddlers about friendlies and never has, listen to his post match comments.
MON did care about friendlies but different manager.

I'm sure you wouldn't be to worried if the Spuds got beaten by Glentoran in a pre-season match!!
