Have the club announced a schedule yet?

Only, one of the lads at our place signed for Chester earlier this week. Anyhow, he's told me that they're playing us in a friendly on July 27th. I knew nowt about it.
Well, some of you are welcome to pop round for a potato and meat pie and a bottle of brown.
Nice one mate
Had those pies been meat and potato then I'd have considered it. As they're not, I'll just drive past.
You were going to bring them !!!
Oh, I will. Without getting banned by the retailer, too. :oyea:

The Shrewsbury game .... with a first team squad playing ... may be even more interesting & only 30 minutes South of here. I may enjoy the pre-season.
Not advocating mass-murder as an entirely positive experience, of course, but it had its moments.

Just be doing the Shrewsbury game.

booking tickets in advance + having a railcard literally doubles the amount of games I can do each season. What website did you use Adam?

Dunno about Adam, but I usually use Red Spotted Hanky. They tend to give out codes for £10 discounts, a few times a year. Not sure if you can use them with a railcard, but it might be worth a try.

Depends on the journey, if it's just one train company I'll just use their website direct to avoid booking fees.

If it's multiple, I'll just get it from thetrainline.com.

cheers. I generally use national rail as a lot of the time as you say you are using more than one rail company.

Really pleased they'll be coming to Carlisle. Looking forward to that one. If anyone is up for it then I'll be around for a beer pre-game

my local paper is still advertising the Rhyl FC - Bolton game July 17th (or 18th, I forgot which it said) but I've not seen it mentioned by us...

Given the success of last season's Tour de Ecosse I can't believe they're not coming back up here this year.

Curse you Nicola Sturgeon!
I'm not asking you to 'think outside the box' I just wish you'd have a rummage around in it once in a while.

If some posters on here had their way, this would be the only pre season game our 1st team would be allowed to play in :roll:
