Title: Preseason
Post by: SwindonTartanArmy on Wednesday, May 6, 2009, 08:29:07
I love it. I know its not as good as the regular season (obviously) but I still love it. the rumours of new signings and the contstant accessing of the internet from dodgy foreign internet cafes to find out if we have signed anyone. Love it.

Is Cardiff the only fixture we have lined up as yet?

A decent prem club or two would be nice and with our ambitious board who knows!

A nice tour of the South/South West would be good, Dorset/Somerset/Devon like we used to do in the old days Weymouth, Dorchester, Bournemouth, Tiverton, Bideford etc etc.

As well as one big team at home from the Prem (Spurs maybe), one recently promoted to the Prem (Wolves or Brum) as well as the usual local teams, and maybe one or 2 games on tour abroad in the sun maybe.

A trip to AFC Wimbledon wouldn't go amiss, now they are in the Conference.

I'm hoping Hampton for the 3rd year running, nice and local. Failing that yep wimbledon would be good.

I was refering to one that has got 3 sides to their ground and views themselves as the Man Utd of the Non-League ;)

I was hoping for a better standard of non-league game than them. Ciren Town, Supermarine, Hungerford. One of those.

Preseason's shit. No games, rumours that turn out complete bollocks and a slow build up of hope and optimism which, 99% of the time, turns out to be a false dawn.

(And yes, I'm a miserble git today)

To be fair though these games are normal for most team in pre-season to play local teams, it is usually a reserve / youth team that is sent anyway as a warm up game for them
