If the mags are there that could cause problems in that when we played in Amsterdam in a pre season tournament .Im sure they had a game planned out there and were forced to cancel it in case we knacked them.
has mags tour been announced? surely they'll be there end of July?
 
It's nowt like that. The majority of clubs go abroad for pre-season.

Not in League One they don't. If the players want the trappings of the premier league, then how about they earn them on the pitch? We should be going to Peterhead and Perth not Portugal, or hire a block at Butlins in Ayr for a training week. The cash spent on a pre season trip to Portugal is OUR money.

I bet Jack didn't take St Mirren to Portugal last pre season and they got promoted at the end of it.

We really need to start realising where we are and thankfully I think the new owners do.

Bain probably sanctioned it as he could tag along and get a free weeks holiday paid for by US and pretend he was working.

What you mean is you want to go to Peterhead and Perth.

Quite a few league one clubs do to be fair like.
 
I actually agree with him (but that'll come as no surprise).

we played 3 games over there last time and aside from it being an outstanding excuse for a piss up, I don't think we gained anything from them.
Wasnt' Frazer Campbell mint in 1 game? It was a bit of a blur.
 
Was class last time in Albufeira.

10 days in the sun drinking €2 pints with a few matches as part of it

Funnily enough I’m there now doing exactly that. Great day watching England thrash Pakistan followed by a good night in The Rock Cafe.
 
Have we heard what the first day back at graft is for the lads or the dates of the training camp?
