Luhukay has already confirmed the annual holiday camp to Portugal isn't happening this year, focusing on getting the players as fit as a fiddle at home, to try and put an end to the ridiculous injury crisis of last season. We've confirmed two friendlies away at League Two play off semi finalists Lincoln City, and the side who just missed out Mansfield Town. Two fairly close ones so I'll be making the trip to those, especially looking forward to a drink in Lincoln.

Got a training camp in Portugal which involves running up a massive hill. No games there though.

We're the most boring club in the country when it comes to pre-season, announced our first, fucking Burnley at home. I guarantee every game we have will be in the north west.

Burnley,
Accrington,
Bamber Bridge,
Morecambe,
Oldham,
Wigan

There you go, give or take 20 miles or so.

Playing another championship team is a bit bizarre

We've only announced our tour (to Marbella) and our local community game (we do it every year) against Bitton FC which is dead handy as I live very close to their ground.
I would imagine we'll have a couple of games in Marbella but nothing has been announced yet apart from the club announcing a VIP trip, including golf and access to the players, for the entirity at the princely sum of £7,000! :£

We're playing Stoke away. It's nice of us to give them the chance to play a Premier League side, they might even get a good turnout for it. Some of their younger fans will be able to take their autograph books along and tell their friends that they were there the day when Wolverhampton Wanderers turned up in town.

Currently waiting with baited breath as according to the ITKs in Glasgow we’re supposed to be playing Rangers at Ibrox on the 6th July. It would be Gerrard’s first official match as Rangers manager.

Why you still hanging about with us lot Mark? No pals upstairs bothered about you NFWFs?

They're my guesses, pretty sure we've played Burnley or Blackburn when in the same league before. Blackpool would be funny.

Talk / rumours, that Celtic are coming to BS3 for a pre-season game. I'll believe that when I see it TBH as City fans are generally pro - Rangers. As a Celt, I would love to see the hoops at our place.

Don't mind Rangers as a club... hate Celtic.

Either way, they will both kick off like fuck wherever they go in England.

Remember we had loads of trouble when we played Hibs, kicking off all over town.

Inferiority complex towards their English overlords.

Absolutely hate Celtic, behind United they are probably the club I'd like to see suffer most.

Rangers don't cause any bother normally in England for pre season games, it's all friendly.

I've heard we've been trying to sort a date out for playing Notts County but nothing confirmed yet.
Players should be much fitter than start of last season, starting back training on 25th June, that's almost 2 weeks earlier than last summer.

Jesus rangers are playing Wigan and bury at home, bet their fans are fucking thrilled to bits.

They should be. Take Celtic away and Wigan will be the biggest club they’ll play at Ibrox all season.
