Hopefully in the near future our list of pre season friendlies will be announced.

To date only the game at Macc has been confirmed.

Will there be more friendlies announced? I was expecting some more home games vs bigger local clubs, eg Preston, Blackpool......

Perhaps it sounds odd, but I really don't care about 'bigger local clubs'. If we do play Preston or Blackpool, I wouldn't be bothered if they were behind closed doors. Gone are the days when a 'big team' in pre-season was something to get excited about. Playing the clubs we've listed is about fitness & confidence. We're playing Sheffield Wednesday & Derby County as peers next season, I bet they aren't too excited about pre-season games against 'big clubs' like Preston!

Agree Keith for me far better to play pre season against teams that play a more combative game with little finesse. Remember when we were non league we played out of our skins just to get a positive result. DA has picked a pre season that he wants for the season ahead. Good choices for me.

Also are we away a lot because the pitch will be having a lot of work done on it this year? I notice there have still been these fans matches up until this week so work must not have started yet.
