Pre-Season

[Hazzman]

Their official site is always cack. So much the unofficial one is more official.

 

[Harbro-Fox]

That's about right Hinckley. Now just get the usual like of Kettering, Quorn and Oadby and we will have another great pre season to look forward to.

:icon_roll These games are for the academy/reserves. Do you honestly think it'll benefit the kids to play Porto's reserves and have seven or eight put past them in front of a big crowd at the Walkers?

 

[Harbro-Fox]

Not just the reserves I remember quite a few seniors playing at Kettering last year. And yes I would feel we will benefit more from playing these teams as we wouldn't get beaten that badly, and it would be a good experience.

First team players, though? I remember it being the reserves, essentially.

Good experience for who? Players or fans?

Fryatt, Oakley, Howard, Mattock, Dyer, Hobbs, Morrison, Gilbert....

I'd say they are all first team players.

Both. Good to see a big team down the walkers. And good for the players to say they have played agaisnt Barca or whoever.

It was mainly first team players.

 

[DesertFox]

Furry muff. I'm still not convinced we need to being playing Barca to prepare for a season of playing the likes of Palace and Barnsley, though. Top end League 1 and bottom end Prem would be much more practical IMO.

 

[Hazzman]

Ajax are touring the UK in mid-July. Would be good opposition.

 

[SJN-Fox]

Would put a bit of vim back into the team.

Would be a good game as well! Milan sort this out.

We can take the spot they leave when they go out of business then.

[bocadillo]

Any ideas if we are off on an overseas jaunt or is it Loughborough, Quorn, Hinckley and Kettering?

Flying out to Slovenia straight after the Loughborough/Tamworth games. Same venue as last year.

 

[Lako42]

The friendly against Hinckley is just a city XI not the first team.

Is that the one we agreed but delayed last season? Or is that the one at Tamworth, as some form of compensation for Taggart?

We played at Hinckley last pre-season.

 

[4-4-2]

We play them every pre-season!

Is Gerry Taggert still at the Club ?
