Bethnal Yellow and Green 2,424 Posted June 14, 2021 Playing Arminia Bielefeld in Gutersloh on 28th July. So look like Norwich will be going on their usual German training camp to the same place this summer. Norwich also played Arminia at Gutersloh in summer 2019 before the last Premier League campaign, was a 2-2 draw with Srbeny and Drmic both scoring. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Branston Pickle 4,145 Posted June 14, 2021 The journos did mention that we were hoping to go to Germany again in their q+a last week (not really any surprise), but obviously depends on restrictions. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We would look very silly jetting off to Europe just as restrictions are being floated and cases are on the rise.. What's wrong with some Kings lynn/MK/Spurs? Being as 'local' as we can you know?

More about the facilities in the place they stay and getting all the players away together than the teams they are playing friendlies against. They went to Germany before the beginning of the season just gone, and the situation was much worse then than it is now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

However the borders weren't closed before they are now, generally. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mello Yello 2,572 Posted June 14, 2021 Send the team down to Lympstone Devon to the Royal Marine Commando training centre for a week for some pre-season fitness and physical team building..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Isn't that something similar to what Roy Keane did with Ipswich? One of the players quit football afterwards as he felt being in the Garda back in Ireland would be an easier life than working with Keane I seem to remember. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
