Agreed. Even just charge a 5er for adults and a couple of quid for kids

may have people on trial and trying to keep it quiet to be fair..

That’s constructive criticism though and a sensible thing to do for the fans, unless there is not enough time to sort it out

Unless it’s a top top player which it won’t be I cannot see any bother in people knowing who is on trial

Owt for nowt

Sensible to have another game. It will give some a chance to get more minutes in their legs and hopefully to gain an understanding of their role in the side.

So the manager wants a quick friendly arranging behind closed doors, no doubt his choice, no cost involved in orgainising, and peopke are criticsing the club because tgey want it at a non league ground, which would cost the club money to set up, then arrange tickets, and stewarding all at 3 days notice. Aye highly constructive

And Ross may not want any prying eyes from Oxford seeing his team line up.

Or we could have had a better organised pre season

Hmm sounds a bit desperate and that we aren't up to speed for the start of the season.

Seems poor planning this summer. Hopefully lessons learnt

expect replies like "we were still fresh from the play off final so we only needed four games" there is no structure right across the club.

This is what they said last year....we came in late so couldn't plan a decent pre-season.

This year will be down to the takeover talks.

 

[Brainman]

Makes sense with the new additions.
See how they fit in.

 

[davoak]

Owt for nowt

Definitely if you've got a mini army of rabid kids to entertain

Firstly hope there isn't any need for excuses. However if that is trotted out they can fuck off with it. No excuses this summer.
