Kevin Nolan named two different XIs for each half with eight summer signings and three trialists involved. Here’s some of the best pictures from St James Park and a line on how Town’s players, both new and old, looked in the first game of pre-season...

10. Max Dyche
The middle centre-back in the second half. Did well. Very vocal and dominant as you'd expect. Photo: Pete Norton

11. Jack Perkins
Played as a box-to-box midfielder in the second half. Very lively and full of running. One particularly excellent run from deep broke Brackley's back-line and led to a good chance for Dobson Photo: Pete Norton

12. Jack Burroughs
Played as the right-sided centre-half in the second period. Quietly assured and solid Photo: Pete Norton
