Pre-Season 2018/19

@reids can revisit the site of the poogate incident!

 

July 28th, 4:52pm...

....still no away goals and Andre Gray scores the winner for Brentford in his first game back for his old club.

Calling it.

 

Runs to the Watford fans cupping an ear...

 

When is the Saratt Cricket match

 

By when will pre-season have been ruined?

 

My favourite sandwich is chicken, bacon and avocado, in a lovely crusty bloomer.

 

I like Marmite and Lettuce.
Or cold sausage with lots of Mustard Pickle.

 

No - Football League starts on weekend of 4th/5th August.

 

Anybody know when the players are due back for next season.

 

Gone to Everton mate!

 

If they don’t turn up, they can’t lose away.

 

This summer I think.

 

Isnt it the second week of June (apart from anyone in a world cup squad)?

 

If you believe the leak of the opening day fixtures, we kick off with an away trip to Leicester.

They were the first team we played in our miserable run without a goal on the road, so it would be a nice bit of symmetry if the leak were to be true and then we go there and score.

 

We’ve had a run without scoring away from home? You should have said!

 

Jesus, not this again! Every single year.....

 

Just, just let them believe.

 

I've already booked my train and hotel for Leicester. This better be right.

 

Back in the day I really used to enjoy that fixture, used to live in Sarratt in my early teenage years.

 

Don't think it can be right. Us big boys don't play other top teams at the beginning or end of the season. Be more plausible if they had us away at Goodison or Craven Cottage or somewhere.

 

To be fair, Leicester away suits VR as he'll be camped out at the Esso garage there all summer getting the latest transfer stories for us all.

 

Well someone has to replace all the valued insights that ITKJim used to provide

 

Sky have already requested it be played on the Monday.

 

Yeah and it's usually wrong eh

 

So it was definitely him!

I’m afraid in future I’ll have to read his measured & insightful analysis through an ominously smeared lens.

I live in the vicinity of the incident.

 

It would be tapping up on an heroic scale if the Bees land Snake in the next 6 weeks.

 

Pre-season friendly with Stevenage. No surprise there, as this was probably part of the Wilmot deal.

However, we do play Brentford the next day, so I will suspect it will be fringe squad players and youth team, rather than first team players.

 

That's the day before the Brentford game so I'd have thought it'll be pretty much a U23 team.

 

Should be Brent Cross?
