[Guest]

so far i can gather our friendlies are:

 

tues 22nd july away to great wakering

tues 29th july away to barking & east ham

thurs 31st july home to orient

sat 2nd aug away to east thurrock

tue 5th aug away to arlesey

 

But there is also talk of us at home to gillingham a day before the Arlesey match? Is this correct? Be a bit close, 2 games in 2 days etc!

Also are we playing Spurs?

Bloomin' eck, Arlesey. Bit of a trek for a pre season game innit? I think we're still in the throes of organising another couple of home games, Spurs and a conference team are both being hoped for. Len has promised to send me a full list when they're all confirmed - hopefully in time to promote them at the BTSA AGM next week.

 

Don't forget Justin is going to be looking at a lot of players over pre season, both for the first team and the reserves so there will be quite a few games organised. It looks as though we're starting later than under Calder so there will be games in quick succession.

 

Two new grounds for me there, Barking and Arlesey. Anorak time <img src="/forums/images/graemlins/wink.gif" alt="" />

I wouldn't get to excited about Barking's ground Simon!

Where the hell is Arlesey?

it is in bedfordshire. It is a very modern ground and have a nice main stand . Pitch is excellent there aswell. They do have a bunch of about 10/15 fans who stand behind the opposition goal and go nuts at the ref after every decision.

No chance of that... takes a lot to get me excited about a ground! That said, a couple of new grounds does add more interest to the pre season campaign... Not that it needs it with all the summer arrivals.
