[ThePolishJig]

Has to be worth the wait ... surely?

 

[Paul Reids Sock]

It'll be something like Aberystwyth away

Barber's waiting for the ink to dry on the goat skin parchment he uses for contracts.

That is one team it won't be, they are already playing that day or the next

Thanks, was going to email them this week but no point now

Doesn't sound like it will be an attractive fixture by the fact the opposition hasn't been announced yet. Still watching social media and waiting and waiting....

Could part of the negotiations with Valencia for our new goalie involve the promise of a friendly?

I'm not entirely sure us promising them a friendly is a particularly great bargaining chip. We're Brighton, not Man United!

Could they not be promising us a friendly?

Why would they promise us a friendly for signing one of their players?

 

[Postman Pat]

I would have played a friendly against anyone prepared to take Chris O'Grady off our hands!

Who knows how these things work - I was just putting it out there.

Oscar takes over at St. Etienne.

Do they need a friendly ?

 

[Ernest]

Will there be any news this week ?

Bloody well hope so, as I posted before, two years ago we had just over 6 weeks notice of the city of the match. If the match takes place it is exactly 6 weeks tomorrow.

The fixture falls in the peak of tourist season. Should it be in a major centre, ie, Prague, Berlin, Paris or elsewhere similar, accommodation and transport at this late stage will not come cheap. If its some armpit off the tourist trail, maybe not such an issue.

Its pretty clear imo, whoever was lined up originally has fallen through, for whatever reason. My initial hunch when this date was announced, was Ingolstadt as part of the Gross deal. However, as Bundesliga2 starts the weekend before, that would be most unlikely. At that stage of pre-season, it needs to be somebody competitive.
