Tommy G Posted 29 June 2011 Posted 29 June 2011 Am I correct that the players start training again this friday? Or is it on monday 4th? Hopefully we will get the usual updates on the OS with pictures and coverage of friendlies etc. I'm sure stringer will be gimping around the (temporary) training ground most days. Certainly looking forward to it and hopefully a couple of new players before friday..
Dan Posted 29 June 2011 Posted 29 June 2011 Extremely disappointed at the lack of local friendlies. Real Madrid should be pretty memorable, but the aways are awful, and the Sweden tournament has descended into a farce. It's a shame really. EDIT; And by "aways are awful" I mean the number of them, Kettering I can't wait for.
ScouseFox Posted 29 June 2011 Posted 29 June 2011 adamsmith_1 Adam Smith Leaving sunderland.. On route to leicester #PreSeason 34 minutes ago So presumably they start sometime this week.

milan_foxes Posted 29 June 2011 Posted 29 June 2011 @liammoore93 Liam Moore Last fitness sess before pre season!
Stevosevic Posted 29 June 2011 Posted 29 June 2011 I would love to be a footballer, but i do not envy them doing pre-season training - it sounds disgusting.
Stevosevic Posted 29 June 2011 Posted 29 June 2011 Pelts_86 Lee Peltier Long day 2mora upto leicester, looking forwrd to meeting new team mates ☺
Stevosevic Posted 30 June 2011 Posted 30 June 2011 RobTannerMerc Rob Tanner A trip to Austria now after Sweden Tour. I could do my own version of an Idiot Abroad! City to face Valencia and Bursaspor.
AmyLGK Posted 30 June 2011 Posted 30 June 2011 Can I ask a stupid question.....so obviously these guys are living all around the country - do they literally commute every day to the training ground or do they have two homes?? I know Wellens and Gallagher live near me up here int Norf! Its a 2 1/2 hour drive to Leicester for me and I'm knackered after it! Mind you I'm not a fit as footballer! Maybe long drives have no effect on them at all!
John Matrix Posted 30 June 2011 Posted 30 June 2011 real madrid will be an experience, looking forward to kettering. shame the tournies seem to be a bit iffy

Les-TA-Jon Posted 30 June 2011 Posted 30 June 2011 Aren't the players going to be knackered for the start of the season? Travel to Sweden: July 12th IK Sirius July 14th Real Mallorca July 18th Enskede IK Travel to Austria: July 20th Bursaspor July 23rd Valencia Travel to UK: July 30th Real Madrid August 6th Start of Season against Coventry All seems a bit much?
Stevosevic Posted 30 June 2011 Posted 30 June 2011 Looks like Lee moved down to Leicester today but needs a guide... Pelts_86 Lee Peltier Food and cinema to watch bridesmaids sounds good to me! But where is the cinema haha
Stevosevic Posted 30 June 2011 Posted 30 June 2011 Where do the players usually stay if they are in a hotel? dannzy1 neil danns Arrived at hotel, bath then early night , up early then driving in with @Pelts_86 in the morning #backtothegraft
ScouseFox Posted 30 June 2011 Posted 30 June 2011 Jay Spearing stayed in the Marriott when he was on loan. So presumably they all stay there whilst on loan/househunting.

Wonder where Madrid will be staying
SMX11 Posted 1 July 2011 Posted 1 July 2011 Well at least they are doing some fitness work this year.
Guest Mee-9 Posted 1 July 2011 Posted 1 July 2011 Well at least they are doing some fitness work this year. And not sitting at a whiteboard with a certain portugese man explaining passing, whilst their binge eating Piri Piri Pa*lo pies.
John Matrix Posted 1 July 2011 Posted 1 July 2011 Well at least they are doing some fitness work this year. i think they should do the whole of training with the ball at their feet
