2020/21 Pre season friendlies and fixture list

Good news that Grainger is still around and has started playing again.

Still no sign of Higgs, though.
 
Moore was at Hemel Hempstead last season, Sammut is a former Scotland U21 international who was at Chelsea and Sunderland without making a first team appearance. I can't find anything on Bridgeman or Kozakis.

Can see some mentions of Bridgeman with Windsor at the start of the 2017/8 season, and with Wealdstone in 2018/19, but nothing more recent.

Koritsas looks like he's from the US, was added to Crawley's first team squad last season but didn't play a game.
 
Pretty strong first half performance despite the scoreline with Dulwich unlucky not to be on terms with Mills hitting the woodwork twice within 30 secs just before the break. Sammut and Timlin looking good in central midfield and musampa playing well. Also getting joy down the right flank with oluraweju who started instead of deon moore (i think), barbosa replacing trialist on the left after 25 mins. Crossing could be a little better and need runners from central midfield to support mills a bit more but all in all encouraging.
 
After a slow start in the first ten minutes of the second half dulwich took control, fashioned a lovely equaliser from hyde after good work from timlin and despite the obligatory pre season substitutions were by some distance the better side in the last half hour. Back 4 largely untroubled with ming and embalo playing particularly well, midfield causing lots of problems, especially from out wide and would have won but for some goalkeeping heroics. Olarewaju, musampa impressive as well but no real weak links. An all round strong performance - hope some of these players confirmed next week.
 
Pretty sure player wearing 17 was Moore who was up against an experienced fulk back in Wishart. Timlin is a much higher quality midfielder than anything we had last season. Was impressed with Sammut as well and Barbosa has some nice touches.Embalo is solid at the back. Overall everything looks solid and today there was an increased goal threat.
 
Tyrique Hyde just scored a lovely leveller.

Had been intending to get to a game but time ran away from me and I caved and bought the stream at HT. I am pathetic.
I too relented. Fair to say that Wealdstone did a far better job with the live stream than Sutton.

Thought we looked solid at the back, Musampa's assist for their goal aside. Would have been an excellent through ball at the other end but that still looked a very capable back four.

Midfield seemed pretty well balanced with the usual odd moment of over-committing players leaving us a bit too open to the counter.

Cautiously optimistic for the new season if it gets going but I think we've all got the hang of pre-season performances flattering to deceive. Feels like there will be lots of players with points to prove and aspirations to play at a higher level. Can't help but think that will suit Gavin better than what we had last season.

Only a friendly but I think Wealdstone might be in for a rough ride in the Conference.
 
a barnet supporting friend messaged me to say he was there!
Bastard! (The friend who blagged it in, not you.) I would have been free to attend that.

Here's the Barnet report, although no details at all on who played for the Hamlet:
