Minster Canary 0 Posted May 6, 2010 As well as a full pre season line up with games against Dagenham, Lincoln, Stevenage and some Norwich XI fixtures against "the locals". Also they''re going to Germany for a week. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
First Wizard 0 Posted May 6, 2010 Top games, which hopefully I will get tickets for. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Duffman 0 Posted May 6, 2010 Anyone else think that the time PL spent in Germany is the reason he takes his teams there for pre season?? Perhaps he knows some guys out there that he will bring in to help out with coaching or fitness work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AJ 1,001 Posted May 6, 2010 Sounds like everyone is taking this step up very seriously, it''s nice to see that we mean business in pre-season with some tough games Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Canary_on_the Trent 0 Posted May 6, 2010 Looks like a very tough pre-season schedule playing 5 football league sides in 11 days including 2 premiership sides. Certainly no excuse for starting slowly and being caught cold like last season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Canary_on_the Trent 0 Posted May 6, 2010 Seems to be a relationship with Lincoln since Sutton has gone there, Stephens out on loan and now the friendly. Lambert & Sutton obviously got on well at Celtic. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And it shows with the match with the Toon, the two clubs must''ve got a good business relationship over Forster. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
