It's only a pre-season friendly ....

This isn't the same as last year. Last year I suffered, with others, the horrors of playing three pre-season friendlies against Livingstone, Dundee United and Celtic. Livingstone are Division 1 in Scotland and therfore just about Conference standard. They beat us easily, and Marcelino looked off the pace. Dundee United hadn't own at home for about 8 months but beat us with ease, Dabizas being subbed after 23 minutes for being unable to cope with being told he was crap by his manager. By the time Celtic came around we were a touch better but in retrospect that was cos Celtic were awful.
