Anyone go to the sponsors do last night? A couple of the 'London Reds' went last night. A small complaint about a lack of complimentary wine on tables but overall it sounded like they enjoyed it. No proper gossip to share, apparently they asked Morris if he could arrange a pre-season abroad somewhere nice and hot, which he said he'd asked about but those above him were not having it. Boo!

Selfishly Republic of Ireland would be my choice, but I wouldn't be unhappy with Scotland either, could go and visit friends and family up there. At that time of year, it's pure midgy territory! Smiley

Bah, pre season should be spent in an army camp with the class of 2023-24 emerging as true Spartans, as befits the early club name.

Why don't you knock it off with them negative waves? Why don't you dig how beautiful it is out here? Why don't you say something righteous and hopeful for a change?

If we’re being selfish a pre season in the delights of East Anglia would be ok.

We could include a game against Kevin Horlock’s Needham Market.
Just as long as we avoid Histon, only just got over the last two visits (having gone to see Chippenham there in a promotion decider)

Have a look at our squad this season to get the answer to that! Smiley

One of the other guys did the mascot package (which was/is pricy) and apparently didn't even get any complimentary drinks in the legends lounge this season. I know you are paying primarily for the kids enjoyment but even a free pint/glass of wine might have been a nice touch.

I know it's tongue in cheek but it's quite scary how much we have actaully probably paid this season, it's the actual standard that is the problem Hutton,Tomlinson,FBT,Khan,Clayton all paid for in some way. Williams and Austin are not cheap either. We missed a huge opportunity this season to add those wages and fees to a few more senior type players and have a go this season didnt we
