TWTD Preseason Friendlies
With preseason well under way, the TWTD Benders of England drew AFC Wimbledon in the League Cup preliminary round.
Over at Ze TWTD, a friendly took place with Aviron Bayonnais. Whilst Ze TWTD dominated the shots and possession, they were unable to capitalise with the match ending in 2-2.
Meanwhile over at TWTD England, they got a very good win over Coventry, Luigi Balotelli grabbing the brace. Coventry manager Thorn came out after the game, criticising the league 2 minnows for trying to pass the ball into the back of the net, despite winning the game.
Edit 1:
Ze TWTD certainly don't need improvements this time, smashing Dunkerque 7-2
Meanwhile The TWTD Benders continue their good early form by beating Scunthorpe away 1-0.
Edit 2
Ze TWTD continued to pile in the goals, winning 6-0 against French side GF 38.
Over in England, the TWTD Benders are selling a large amount of season tickets, with sales expected to reach over 15,000 before the start of the season. Their friendly was away to Newry City, a Northern Ireland First Division team. The match ended with Newry getting an 8-0 thumping.
Edit 3:
Ze TWTD finally faced a tougher opponent in German side Union Berlin, but kept up their good form with a 2-0 victory, Gavlar and BB getting the goals. The only negative to take from the game was a 4 week injury to KievTheGreat. This was the be the last game in Ze TWTD's pre-season, with the German Third Division scheduled to start in a week's time.
Mean while over in the TWTD England camp, the pre-season continued to be successful, if rather low scoring, with a 2-0 win over northern monkeys :Leeds Utd. Balotelli continued to impress whilst captain Sitters grabbed a goal and MoM after finally finding his shoes.
Karma also caught up with Gav, who is out injured for 5 weeks after pulling a muscle during a sprint.
Edit 4:
Another win, this time conceding a goal in a match between Leyton Orient and TWTD although TWTD still came out on top with a 2-1 win.
Note: I've let the assistant manager take over the friendlies as they take a complete age so don't blame me if you're not picked, blame Warky!
Where's Chubby Alonso?
