Apparently we're going to China, suppose it beats going to Ireland every pre season.

 

[QPR_Matt]

We are playing Union Berlin (the shit Berlin team). Might go, I love Berlin. Also got Peterborough away. Hoping we play Hampton again this year.

Flights are only £60 for that week from east mids or Manchester. Hotels are a joke in marbs though I'm hoping it will be in malaga itself

Yep lots of choice with flights.

Plenty of places just outside Marbs to stay at when we get some details though. Think there'll be a good few out there watching us.

Was only about 150 tops last year in last manga but yes I agree I'd expect 700/800 for this one.

 

[Kilburn Ram]

We've got a couple of lower league teams away, but the big one is away at Kaiserslautern on 22 July. Should be a cracking trip and expect a few hundred to go over.
Then we finish off with Hoffenheim at home on the 29th. Will he a tough test as they are third currently in the Bundesleague.

 

[JaseTheVillain]

July 12th – Telford, New Bucks Head, 7.45pm
July 12th – Kidderminster, Aggborough, 7.45pm
July 15th – Shrewsbury, New Meadow, 3pm
July 18th – Walsall, Banks’s Stadium, 7.45pm
July 29th – Watford, Vicarage Road, 3pm

Yes, you read that right, two friendlies on the same day... We did the same last season too. The Watford game is in honour of Graham Taylor.

 

[markwwfc1992]

Shrewsbury (a)

[KevinMcallister]

Dublin is just an overpriced bag of shit full of c*** that don't like us, fuck that.

Dublin with 4000 leeds fans is an amazing piss up

 

[markwwfc1992]

Playing Werder Bremen in Austria.

 

[Jamo]

Guiseley (A)
Coventry (H)
Rochdale (A)
Grimsby (A)
Rotherham (A)

And some training camp in Hungary of all places.

 

[KevinMcallister]

our 1st one confirmed

Scarborough Athletic (A) 29th july

 

[blademan89]

Looks like our match in Spain is against a malaga side but not in malaga, in a place called coin about 20 miles away. I must say I'm quite dissapointed with that having to fuck about travelling 20 miles to the middle of nowhere but oh well a few nights away will be fine.

 

[Etienne Vermeer]

Only confirmed one so far is at Stevenage. Sounds delightful.

 

[Liam_SWFC]

None confirmed yet but really hope we go over to Portugal again this summer, I'm booked to go out there for a week in Albufeira July time.

 

[JoshBCFC]

Our community game is against Bristol Manor Farm

 

[El Guapo]

None confirmed yet but really hope we go over to Portugal again this summer, I'm booked to go out there for a week in Albufeira July time.

It would be a sin to go to the Algarve and not visit Lagos. It’s about 40 minutes to the west from Albufeira.

I went kayaking there through the grottos - more authentic and better beaches there.

Info for you Blades. Just been reading in the Spanish press that you have a friendly against Malaga, in Coín, on July 14th. I live about 5 mins from Coín. Coín is a small town about 30mins inland from Marbella. Pig to get to if you haven´t got a car, no trains and an infrequent bus service from Fuengirola or Malaga. Ground is pretty small. Town itself is a dump but the surounding area is lovely.

Taxi from marbella it is then. Ground looks an absolute toilet , just an inconvenience for us having to make our way to coin. There isn't a single hotel there, looks a very small quiet place.

Couple of hotels in Alhaurin El Grande, 5 mins away. Alhaurin Golf or Mirador. Your right quite quiet up here, but that why we like it.

 

[Liam_SWFC]

Confirmed a few today.

Tuesday 11th July- Alfreton Town (A)
Saturday 15th July- Mansfield Town (A)
Monday 17th July-Sunday 23rd July Portugal Camp, opponents TBA.

Saturday 29th July- Doncaster Rovers (A)

I'll be away for the Alfreton game but will make the Mansfield and Doncaster games, hoping we'll announce a big home friendly for our 150th anniversary, Benfica last year was a good night out.

 

[T.A]

25th is a Tuesday. Unless you were insinuating a joke about Doncaster being behind the time...

Parents took me to Lagos when I was a kid on holiday and we had a car crash, nothing too bad but it smashed our rented car up
