I do enjoy a good pre-season fixture when the opportunity avails itself...

@Otis, what are the trains like for this one, mate?

Great little ground. A couple of years ago we were down there on holiday and saw them play Wycombe in the Carabou. It was the night we lost at home to Northampton, I think. Definitely be going to this.

Oh no...the thought gives me the jitters. When are they starting on that and how long will that take? My 3 week education and non stop discussion on grass growth on here at start of last season has left my memory already!

Don't worry, should be done in time .

However, if we play Sunderland at home first game, the pitch won't be ready until 15 mins after kickoff

We will easily sell out the away allocation for this, probably take just over 7,000 fans.

Last time we went there chose to go in corporate dying, I wouldn't recommend it, IT WAS SHITE.

Kept separate from the home fans in dying and stuck in the corner in the stadium .

It is pretty irrelevant who you play pre season. But yes it would be nice to have the last game at home big draw v Villa, Wolves or Forest.

Looking forward to this one.

Great little ground, just at the top of the high street, Sidwell St.

There is a train station about two mins from the ground, St James.

Should be a great trip on what I hope is a sunny day in July.
