Ahead of our do-or-die fixture with Portsmouth this Sunday, there was something of a warm-up match last night when the two reserve sides faced each other.
Sadly, our reserves ran out 1-0 losers but the match will be remembered for the fact that Jari Litmanen played for 76 minutes and could well have played himself into contention for the squad that will travel to Portsmouth this weekend.
Others that appeared with first team experience were Moritz Volz, Ian Pearce and Eddie Johnson, however we suspect neither of those three will feature in Roy`s selected sixteen on Sunday afternoon.
