Still waiting on details but expect it be there and the team from around 8th to 13th. U23 will be at Leamington too on 6th July so be good to have a decent turn out for that one. Local, likely good weather and see some of the fringe/new players.

After last seasons farce I’d be surprised if we manage to piece anything together for there!!

Best we can hope for will likely be another pre season playing in the hotel complex (although what a nice complex it was )

To be fair he has played in the football league for Walsall and Hereford, but like some of our old players he hasn't been good enough, and has had to go to the non league.

Just remember, Stuart "Psycho" Pearce was playing for non-league Wealdstone before being snapped up by Bobby Gould to play for the then Top Division club, Coventry City. He also went on to play 78 times for England.
