Guest Gist Posted 8 May 2007 Posted 8 May 2007 Shows how off touch I am with the footballing world, I thought the season started on the 4th I thought it did too
Floating Fox Posted 9 May 2007 Posted 9 May 2007 **** OFF, PORTSMOUTH AT HOME IS NOT MOUTHWATERING Couldn't agree more fezzlington.
sam_p_lcfc Posted 9 May 2007 Posted 9 May 2007 Leicester City 2007-08 pre-season schedule:Tuesday, July 17 v Hinckley United (a) 7.30pm Friday, July 20 v TBC (a) Tuesday, July 24 v Partick Thistle (a) 7:45pm Saturday, July 28 v Kilmarnock (a) 3 pm Tuesday, July 31v Cheltenham Town (a) 7.45pm Saturday, August 4 v Portsmouth (h) 3pm So is every one planning to go to all of the pre-season friendlies??
Mort Posted 9 May 2007 Posted 9 May 2007 So is every one planning to go to all of the pre-season friendlies?? I'm tempted by Kilmarnock and of course Pompey... I do wonder about the TBC fixture (league One/ Championship side on the way north? Preston, Chesterfield, Leeds ?)...
lcfc_jme Posted 9 May 2007 Posted 9 May 2007 Hinckley and Kilmarnock look good to me. Cheltenham away is also a real possibility. I might also go to the Pompeii game and sit in the away end. They're not a focking big club though and that game is by no means mouth watering.

davieG Posted 9 May 2007 Posted 9 May 2007 I was SO excited last night that I couldn't sleep. Did you wet the bed through the sheer excitement and anticipation or was it case of PMSL
Thracian Posted 9 May 2007 Posted 9 May 2007 I was SO excited last night that I couldn't sleep. Virtually all away games, the same as last year and the opposition about as inspiring as before too. All we'll need is dour defence for the Portsmouth game and we'll have a virtual repeat. Doubtless the motivational crap about "every shirt being up for grabs" will also be repeated. Kilmarnock brings back memories - bad ones. I watched em in the 60's and it was so bad I've never wanted to watch a Scottish football match since.

I think its an improvment to be honest, its not amazingly exciting... but it better than the LeagueTwo tour K*lly took us on last summer and the likes of Kilmarnock and Pompey will be decent games. It could have been a lot better, I'd have liked a tour of four or five games somwhere like Switzerland or Canada, followed by a mixture of games back home including a couple of attractive home fixtures... but we get what we're given to a certain extent
Fez of Mahrez Posted 9 May 2007 Author Posted 9 May 2007 The opposition is unimportant. The results are unimportant. Even the team performances aren't particularly important. It's ALL about fitness.
potter3 Posted 9 May 2007 Posted 9 May 2007 The opposition is unimportant. The results are unimportant. Even the team performances aren't particularly important.It's ALL about fitness. We should try and get a tour of Kenya or a country of similar altidutde then for a tour/trainging camp :
I8AM Posted 10 May 2007 Posted 10 May 2007 Pompey should offer MM an opportunity to do some business.......at last minute
Thracian Posted 10 May 2007 Posted 10 May 2007 The opposition is unimportant. The results are unimportant. Even the team performances aren't particularly important.It's ALL about fitness. Not to me it wouldn't be. It would be all about introducing a style of football to run right through the club, getting the players and coaches to understand that style and seeing that they know how to adapt it to suit different circumstances. Finally it would be about seeing where any weaknesses occured and why. Then deciding how best to deal with them.
Sods Posted 10 May 2007 Posted 10 May 2007 Mansfield away, my mate is a big mansfield fan keeps going on how good they are ::
a-fox Posted 10 May 2007 Posted 10 May 2007 on one of the football management games i played on when you buy a player could offer 2 mil and a pre season friendly maybe this is the case with Portsmouth.
Stevosevic Posted 10 May 2007 Posted 10 May 2007 on one of the football management games i played on when you buy a player could offer 2 mil and a pre season friendly maybe this is the case with Portsmouth. yes, we buy a player from them and the deal clincher is us to play them in a friendly
potter3 Posted 10 May 2007 Posted 10 May 2007 on one of the football management games i played on when you buy a player could offer 2 mil and a pre season friendly maybe this is the case with Portsmouth. I think it's more to do with the links Milan has with Pompey.
Head Honcho Posted 10 May 2007 Posted 10 May 2007 It's a pretty uninspiring list of fixtures tbh. I may fly up to Scotland for a few days for one or two of them games depends if Rangers have a home game around that time too.
shen Posted 10 May 2007 Posted 10 May 2007 Even if the Spice Girls were in the boot i still wouldnt. What about Robbie Williams naked in the boot then?

Well at least we could save on your air fare for overseas trips, you could just walk there.
