m1st Posted June 15, 2012 Posted June 15, 2012 Interesting ... never been to Bower Fold. Thought they still played their home games at Gigg Lane. They usually do; but, if, say, there's a fixture clash with Bury [although there isn't with this game], FCUM need alternatives. Bower Fold seems to be quite easy to get to, even for those who, like me, no longer drive.

cn174 Posted June 16, 2012 Posted June 16, 2012 Are we not playing at Morecambe again? I enjoyed the day there I think we are but doing the double header thing at Accy this time.
EwoodDawn Posted June 16, 2012 Posted June 16, 2012 Apart from Hereford and FC United has anyone got any idea of possible dates for the others?
ABBEY Posted June 16, 2012 Posted June 16, 2012 Was going to ask same...I fancy a seat behind kean at Stanley
Jock Posted June 16, 2012 Posted June 16, 2012 Was going to ask same...I fancy a seat behind kean at Stanley He'll probably be away on a scouting mission looking at Messi. 'Messi is the new Ronnie Hildersley'
DannyKeg Posted June 18, 2012 Posted June 18, 2012 Looks like a pre season friendly away at NEC Nijmegen in Holland, just down the road for me. 5th August ? http://www.gelderlander.nl/sport/nec/11238331/NEC-in-voorbereiding-tegen-Blackburn-Rovers-en-Besiktas.ece
he6rt6gr6m Posted June 18, 2012 Posted June 18, 2012 I think we are but doing the double header thing at Accy this time. Fleetwood, not Morecambe.
EwoodDawn Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 From the above then, we seem to have: Sat 21 July - Fleetwood 12 o' clock, Accy Stanley 3 pm Wed - 25 - Rochdale and Hereford (Steve Brent mastered time travel now has he?) Wed 1st Aug - FC United Sun 5th Aug - Nijmegen (possibly) I'm guessing that Sat 28th July and Sat 11th Aug are also prime targets for other friendlies. If anyone has heard anything re. these days, I'd really appreciate it if you would post it on here/pm me as I'm trying to organise something and I don't want it clashing with, say a pre-season weekend in Ireland. Thanks.
AndyNeil Posted June 19, 2012 Posted June 19, 2012 Hereford and FC United are reserve team fixtures... there is talk of a tournament in Preston as part of the Presdon Guild on the weekend of the 28th/29th July (Rovers, AEK Athens, Hearts and Preston). Apart from that, I know nothing...
Ricky Posted June 20, 2012 Posted June 20, 2012 Just to confirm that the Hereford friendly isn't Hereford United but local team Westfields.
Clitherover Posted June 21, 2012 Posted June 21, 2012 From the above then, we seem to have: Sat 21 July - Fleetwood 12 o' clock, Accy Stanley 3 pm Wed - 25 - Rochdale and Hereford (Steve Brent mastered time travel now has he?) Wed 1st Aug - FC United Sun 5th Aug - Nijmegen (possibly) Is the plan here to pick a load of (with the greatest of respect) god awful teams so it looks like we've actually got some wins under our belt before the new season? Saying that we'll probably lose these games as well...
Glenn Posted June 21, 2012 Posted June 21, 2012 No pre-season tour to India? The Pune tournament was announced at the presentations after the the mid-season-pre-season (possibly live on Indian TV) in Pune, though we were later asked not to repeat that we'd heard that! Trufax - Shebby Singh, Jerome Anderson, SK's body guard (really nice bloke actually), MG Road and the two Ians all accidentally ended up in my "holiday snaps" that day.
Gav Posted June 21, 2012 Posted June 21, 2012 SK's body guard (really nice bloke actually) Another one riding the gravy train, I bet he's a nice bloke, he's filling his boots
Baz Posted June 21, 2012 Posted June 21, 2012 There was rumours of a round robin tournament at PNE for the guild celebrations too, though nothing official ever announced.
hollowsr Posted June 21, 2012 Posted June 21, 2012 What I presume is the reserves are off to Chorley again this summer, Tuesday 14th August
Daremz Posted June 22, 2012 Posted June 22, 2012 Two friendlies in Holland! Yeahh! Present at both August 3rd and 5th!
owenrilla Posted June 22, 2012 Posted June 22, 2012 Two friendlies in Holland! Yeahh! Present at both August 3rd and 5th! Here is a question. This is the wrong place for it but nevermind. Jonathan Reis - have you seen anything of him since his injury? Has it broken him? He seemed to be developing into a decent player before that (well documented problems aside).
Ossydave Posted June 23, 2012 Posted June 23, 2012 Went to Deventer years ago with college, jolly nice place
AllRoverAsia Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 Cork City away on Sunday 12th August! Rovers are based at Fota Island Resort - excellent facilities for pre Season football with the bonus of golf. I might try and get to the Cork game as expect to be in UK at that time and have family in Dublin so can justify the trip. Will not be at Fota Island though - way out of my budget.
cn174 Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 Cork City away on Sunday 12th August! Lol, we're playing some tough sides in preparation for the new season!!
BRFC95 Posted July 2, 2012 Posted July 2, 2012 Lol, we're playing some tough sides in preparation for the new season!! Kean wants the positivity of an unbeaten preseason
