sandy Posted June 11, 2017 Report Share Posted June 11, 2017 I was looking on the official site for confirmation of any pre-season friendlies. Can't see any. We begin the Betfred Cup Games on 15th July. Anyone know if we are going to manage to squeeze in some more interesting away ties to Blyth etc?

231071 Posted June 11, 2017 Report Share Posted June 11, 2017 I don't see much chance of a game at blyth, their preseason is filling up pretty quick, unlike ours. Most of their availablity is when the irn Bru fixtures start. Tuesday July 4 – Newcastle Benfield (H) Saturday July 8 – West Auckland Town (A) Tuesday July 11 – Shildon (A) Saturday July 15 – Carlisle United (H) Tuesday July 25 – Morpeth (H) Tuesday August 1 – Whitby Town (H) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BowenBoys Posted June 11, 2017 Report Share Posted June 11, 2017 The European training camp seems to have superseded these great trips to north Englandshire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BowenBoys Posted June 11, 2017 Report Share Posted June 11, 2017 Won't happen I know, but I would fancy a trip to Gloucestershire. Find out just how good League 2 standard is with a game against the new boys. Some great half-time fare too. https://www.forestgr...vegan-trademark Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vaila Street Posted June 12, 2017 Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 The Bath game was at the start of July and announced roughly this time last year. A similar fixture this year on Jul 1 would be ideal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lady-isobel-barnett Posted June 12, 2017 Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 The Bath game was at the start of July and announced roughly this time last year. A similar fixture this year on Jul 1 would be ideal. Much prefer an area where seasonal tourist rates aren't quite so high. To justify the trip down you really want to be able to take in two friendlies but the cost of accommodation etc in and around the Cotswolds & Bath for three/four nights was rather restrictive.

Garscube Road End Posted June 12, 2017 Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 July 11th away at Dumbarton. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lady-isobel-barnett Posted June 12, 2017 Report Share Posted June 12, 2017 July 11th away at Dumbarton. Well when I said Bath & the Cotswolds were on the pricey side I was still hoping for somewhere a bit further afield. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those prices on Scot rail down to Dumbarton are horrendous. Edited June 12, 2017 by Garscube Road End Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dick Dastardly Posted June 14, 2017 Report Share Posted June 14, 2017 I don't like the sound of that. If it had been just Hampton or just Richmond we might have stood a chance, but the combined forces could spell trouble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
