Entitled to your opinion but when it is so blatantly agenda driven we need to have some perspective so neutrals can see the other side from Croatia's view.
Firstly apparently Dudley had four regulars out, it definitely wasn't a "second side". Croatia had two regular first team players out, one player was making his first start for the club so considering these factors plus Dudley being touted as the favourite to take out ZPL a 1-0 loss...and a penalty at that....is a decent result. Second half Croatia actually had more chances and the Dudley keeper was the busier of the two so this notion of "chasing shadows" is complete BS.
As for the comment about the warm-up singlets and doof doof music who bloody cares. Why is it embarrassing? Yeah can't do something different in Newy hey. Next you'll be bagging out the club because they sell chevapi at games.
The small-town small-minded mentality strikes again!
At the end of the day it's still just a trial game.
Make your judgement on the team half a dozen games into the season proper.
