Pre Season Friendlies 21/22 Thread

[CFC91]

Some clubs seem to be starting to announce them so thought i'd get the ball rolling.

This is what we have lined up so far, imagine still 2/3 to come - think one will be at home to Sheff u as part of the deal for their U23's to play here.

Wednesday 14th July - Handsworth Parramore v Chesterfield X11 - 7.30pm

Saturday 17th July - Alfreton Town v Chesterfield - 3pm

Wednesday 21st July - Matlock Town v Chesterfield - 7.30pm

Tuesday 27th July - Chesterfield v Bradford City - 7.30pm

Saturday 7th August - Tamworth v Chesterfield - 3pm

 

[doveranddover]

Here's ours, dull as ditchwater, not likely to go to any

July 17th Ashford United (home) at 3pm

July 20th Deal Town (away) at 7.30pm

July 24th Folkestone (home) at 3pm

July 31st Stevenage (home) at noon

August 3rd Whitstable Town (away) at 7.30pm

August 6th Watford (home) at 7.30pm

August 7th Tonbridge Angels (away) at 3pm

 

[Gladders]

Think we only have 3 announced so far, Cleethorpes, Alfreton and Boston.

 

[John Still]

No friendlies announced, not even done our retained list.

 

[Posh Harry]

We’ve tripled our total before last season already. Holloway was a complete disaster.

17 July - Coalville Town (A)
24 July - AFC Telford (A)
27 July - Boston United (A)
1 August - Derby County (H)
7 August - York City (H)
10 August - Tamworth (A)
14 August - Solihull Moors (A)

Weird to be playing a team from the same league. Relations with Ardley clearly aren’t so bad.

What are the odds of you playing Solihull 1st league game?

Ha, we’ve said we’ll change who it is if we play them early on and find a different National League team. Suspect lots will do it as all of the other leagues have started by then so it’s the only way to get a game that Saturday.

It'll be nice to face a side that actually play in Chester, unlike Chester FC.

 

[jacobncfc]

Great marketing and exposure. Perhaps not ideal preparation for a National League season, mind.

We've prepared for the season ahead by getting beaten by a local amateur side before now. I'll take this over that any day, even if I can't go.

 

[karlready]

Not a dickie-bird from the Rec, no retained or released list, no arranged friendlies, nothing. Possibly they have all been abducted by aliens.

5 day training camp as well as the game.

Kevin Durrant is a minority owner of Phily Union, might be time to get some other NBA stars to invest in us.

 

[EnglishRed]

Also, we will probably need a few games beforehand because their season is underway.

Beats going to Cefn Druids or Lex XI (although In sure we will still play them at some point)

Another mention. Counted one about Rutherford in the transfer thread yesterday as well. Not to menton your clubs offical account just before your biggest game in years the other week.

Easy game, don't even have to go fishing for them.

It won’t be a proper pre-season unless we go life and death with a village side like Gresford.

Well you guys never publicise yourselves. We have to keep you alive, we don't want to lose you again.

  Southampton B and Bournemouth XI, it’s depressing we’ve fallen so far that it’s not even their 1st teams

 

[Minstermen central]

We have an interesting pre season with Newcastle,Middlesbrough & Sunderland all visiting new stadium,should be some good gate receipts.

Followed by Farnborough v Maidenhead afterwards. You can get one ticket for both games.

Looks like Beebot, will be in Hampshire heaven. Apart from having to visit Farnborough.

 

[TonyM]

We have a pretty good list with both our senior local sides visiting after their respective promotions which is perhaps a reflection of us being NL again this season, club making noise about attendance restrictions although still lots can change between now and then:
13th July - MK Dons (H)
16th July - Norwich City (H)
20th July - Bishop Stortford (A)
26th July - Chelmsford City (A)
3rd Aug - Peterborough (H)
7th Aug - Alfreton (H)

 

[BlackHaddock]

Not too sure our usual four team tournament with Inter Milan, Ajax and Barcelona is going ahead this year. Haven't seen anything about it yet.

 

[EnglishRed]

Easy as HGV stadium is a horrific name.

 

[The_Boss]

First friendly, 5-0 spanking dished out to the mighty Atherton LR.

We're gonna piss this tin pot league.













Which league are we in again? Shitting he'll it's a bad feeling seeing a score like that when I've played in a side that beat Atherton LR 7-1 in the league before.
