Who else is going? :icon_bigg I'm in Prague now so it's basically next door!

 

[SwedeFox]

Leicester, Leicester, LEICESTER! Leicester, Leicester, leeeeicester.

It's doubtful that this year's trip will involve a friendly match as the Slovenian season begins on 18th July. I posted on the NK Olimpija Postojna (the team we played against a year ago) message board on Monday evening but have not so far had a reply

 

[bocadillo]

I've heard from the club that there will be no match this time - just training sessions.

Waste of bloody time.

Waste of bloody time.

Why?

 

[indierich06]

Waste of money more like, if all they're gonna do is train, then they may as well do it in Sunny Leicester.

... and go home every night?

I can't honestly see what difference a half-pace friendly would add to a well organised training week.

I can't honestly see the difference between a well organised training week in Slovenia and a well organised training week in Leicester. Apart from the fact that flying the squad out and paying for them to stay in Slovenia for a week would be a waste of cash.

Thank goodness you're not the bloke who decides how City spend their money.

Most clubs go away pre-season. It's not just about the training, it's about the players getting to know each other, they'll have much more of a bond being together for for a few days in a foreign country than they would if they just spent a few hours on the training ground.

You're right about the bonding, it's just my frugal side coming out, shame we can't go somewhere where we can have a few money spinning friendlies at the same time and get a percentage of the gate.

I don't think there's anywhere we could play where a friendly would be "money spinning".

 

[FantasyFox]

Why not do paintballing? That's always good for bonding.

 

[Harbro-Fox]

Why?

Why go all the wat to Slovenia to train when you can just train the same in Leicester ?

Because they couldn't train the same in Leicester?
