I just recently bought my 1st season ticket and home friendlies was an entirely separate option. Think the non-season ticket home games is for European, League Cup and Scottish Cup games. Cheers mate. You may be right. Indeed, I hope you are as it will save me a bit of cash 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazza_8 233 Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 Definately going to the Wigan game, possibly the Bury game too. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo79 13,556 Posted June 8, 2018 Share Posted June 8, 2018 I fancy the Bury game but one pre-season friendly is quite enough. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You won’t be allocated a brief unless you indicated you wanted one. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It must have been difficult getting anyone for the first date. Most teams will be on holiday (Will Bury even have started training by then?) and will be watching the World Cup quarter finals.(Presuming players still watch such games. A report in an English paper four years ago suggested they did not) 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tannochsidebear 2,306 Posted June 9, 2018 Share Posted June 9, 2018 I understand these friendlies were contractual obligation from player purchases in the Warburton era. Havent a clue who we bought from either club but we have to honour our agreements. I hate friendlies and have long since stopped paying money to watch them. They really tell you nothing about anything. I just want to hear that nobody got injured, I dont care about the score or scorers.I appreciate they are an essential part of getting players fit for the new season, but IMO they should all be closed doors or £5 to charity donation games and not money making exercises that fleece the fans and never offer value for money, with the usual revolving door of subs in the second half. Bury wont be anywhere near our level of fitness, so its a total waste of time. Given the Gerrard effect I am fairly sure there will be an incredible attendance (perhaps as much as 30K) as our supporters yet again back our club with hard cash, so its entirely understandable from a financial perspective why this goes ahead, but I'll be waiting until July 12 to see our season 18-19 debut. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I am a bit ropey on Spanish history, but I think it's where El Cid armed with a pairing knife and a collection of soft fruit defeated an invading horde of Yahoos in the Seville area. There was only one captured prisoner, a book thief apparently? Anyways, Segovia was so impressed, he dedicated a whole symphony, 'Sympathy for ra Yahoo' and Dali was inspired to create, 'Christ at ra Pawn'. There is a fact based tome entitled, 'The Seville Calculator' which is best consulted before making the trip.
