Not Villareal, then? 

Isn't Fer Ninyo playing for Mallorca these days?

Notts Forest in the championship

I was rather sadly about to say that I bet we could predict our pre-season opposition, then intrigue got the better of me and I had a little look. How random have some of our pre-season games been (I’ll save you the time);

 

21/22

Villareal

QPR

Wycombe

Burton

 

20/21

Sheff Weds

Blackburn

 

19/20

Atalanta

Rotherham

Stoke

Cambridge

Cheltenham 

Scunthorpe

 

18/19

Lille

Valencia

Udinese

Akhisar

Notts County

 

17/18

Monchengladbach

Burton

Wolves

MK Dons

Luton

Liverpool (Asia trophy final)

West Brom (Asia trophy semi)

A Scottish tour like the old days would be good as well. I don't care about 'lets focus and prepare in the best possible way for next season guys' - only some good trips

I follow Mallorca as my “European team”. He’s only on loan - isn’t playing again this season after going out on the piss at the weekend after they lost a relegation 6 pointer

Its reasonable enough to say that the previous two pre-seasons were affected by mitigating circumstances (i.e. COVID and new training ground facilities). This pre-season may be more to 19/20.

Pre-Season 21/22 was a shit show with the exception of Villarreal, but even that resulted in Wes’ injury.

Thanks for the update. He sounds a troublesome character, maybe his lunge at Wes was not untypical.

It worked so well for us this season… 

Didn't win it, that was the issue. Clearly the cause of our under par season

Agreed, but how bizarre did pre-season look in 18/19? Generally can’t remember many of those games!

I went to notts county which was fun because hooters. They announced those two games in Italy last min. Valencia at home on a Friday night then Lille away prob because of the Puel connection
