Always thought it would be good for them to play a match in Tenerife, Las Palmas or Majorca so you could go and watch during a holiday. 

Too close to La Manga.

I'm always in favour of friendlies against lower league teams... particularly, from a selfish point of view, if I can get a new ground in. Notts County, for example, was perfect last season.

 

The fun bit of pre season is the meltdowns when we lose and people predict we'll be relegated by Christmas.

Nice away would be nice 

They’re going on a post season cruise that departs from Nice so they might play a friendly before departure

There was a behind the scenes friendly at the training ground last summer. Doubt it would happen again now that Uncle Nige isn’t there anymore

I'd say the fact Pearson was there last year is exactly the reason why it was behind the scenes.

 

With a percentage of the fanbase unhappy with the management this time last year and a percentage of the fanbase having affection for Nige it could have been awkward for the club and personnel.

 

I'd say a public friendly between the two clubs is more likely to happen now.

Any truth in the rumour that Rodgers said he wanted Congleton (Town), but Rudkin got hold of the wrong end of the stick and got Congerton

We always seem to announce ours dead late.

 

Anyways, lets have something like...

 

Few lower league sides, selfishly ones I've not done, so go Boston, Grimsby, Macclesfield.

 

Do a tour of Holland or Belgium or something, get 2/3 friendlies played there.

 

Home game against someone like Lyon.

Austrian annual get together followed by Anstey Nomads, Shepshed and Leamington Spa would be good, no foreign teams home or away and no matches further away than an adjoining county.

I remember being at Northampton away in 2013 and everyone losing their minds when we lost 2-1 in the last minute at how crap we'd be. That season went terribly...

 

I always fall for friendlies. I go to them, realise how fvcking pointless and boring they are, and yet a year later if there's one at home or close away I'll still buy a ticket and go. Guarantee realise exactly the same thing in a few weeks time. Genuinely do not care about friendlies though. Easy money for the club to make to watch us train, essentially.

I do hope we play Notts County, get them a few bob.

Think they have a lot of bob mate that’s why they are non league.

We should go all out for Rangers.  Just to make sure Celtic fans don't have a Twitter holiday.

A whole day of our fans being their fans' pets? No thanks.
