Right lads shoot me down.

First of all a totally embarrassing result and no excuses at all had we taken our chances we would be through. We didn't and now we're not.

My point is, is this really a bad thing? We were never going to qualify for the groups as we just aren't ready. A whole team of new players and 2 guys who have been out for 10 months. Winning last night would have delayed the inevitable.

Now we have a month before the season starts which gives us time to arrange 3 or 4 decent standard friendlies and maybe time for Pedro to take the players away for a week for some high intensity training. This meaning when the league starts there can be no excuses from anyone.

Yes it's disappointing and utterly embarrassing but this gives us a chance to prepare properly for the league season, something we've not been able to do for the last couple of seasons.

Most teams have probably agreed friendlies for the coming season who can we play and how many games do we need?
I think will need to find teams of PL quality so we can be tested. No point playing minows as we l've already seen how that worked out lol
