New friendly to be announced overseas?

I wont be.

Quite happy just to attend Friday,

Easy innit? Nothing for anyone to moan about. It is 1 pre-season friendly and if it suits the club then fine. Changing league away games 2 weeks before kick off is a different matter.
 
You would think the club were deliberately putting football preparations before a few hundred fans liking to have a summer jolly.

For the first time in as i long as i can remember I wont bother with a single pre-season game (didn't fancy any of them). Somehow I think I'll live.

Fair enough.

Still a bit of a random place to arrange one pre season game. They done the same last season with kilmarnock, but atleast that was only 3hrs on the road.

There'll be a reason for it - I'm sure. If there was no reason for it to be there then it would surely be somewhere closer/easier.
 
We were scheduled to play in the Dublin super cup that weekend but it was cancelled as the sponsors pulled out at the last minute - hence our free weekend on 4/5th August - hope the rumours are true about Holland.

FTM

that would be class, just booked a weekend in dublin for that weekend
 
As Oscar pointed out earlier, depending on the CL qualifying games Helsingborg may not be able to play any game or if they can, can't yet say what date. If that's the case then it's better the club say nothing than say there might be and then change or cancel it.

Hopefully something will be announced soon, the ones who are interested will already have the holidays earmarked at work if needs be (or so I would have thought). Maybe a little extra for travel etc but that's the way it goes.

This. May go on Friday night if cricket is rained off but it will be last minute as I sold my 2 tickets that I originally bought a while back in the home end.
 
I've got a bit more information.

I've been in touch with a Helsingborg supporter who had heard Sunderland been mentioned from one of his friends who knows the chairman. He didn't know if the information came from the chairmain or not I shall add.

He had also been in touch with someone at the club and they had confirmed that they were trying to get an international club over to Helsingborg for that particular weekend. They didn't want to name any opposition club and when the question came up if Sunderland were most likely, they neither confirmed or denied it.

Apparantly if it goes ahead it will have nothing to due with the result in Helsingborgs game tomorrow. Guess it's just taking a bit of time. I will let you know when I know more.

Just came back from Helsingborg. Only a Two-hour trip and I'll gladly revisit again, in red & white stripes this time :cool:
 
Who else on here apart from wackyjacky are planning going over to Helsingborg if it gets confirmed the next coming days?
