I also wonder hsow keen the clubs will be to have their first XIs face each other in a pre-season friendly only a couple of weeks before they are scheduled to meet in the opening Premier League fixture.

Does seem odd given the first match of the season!

That report from Fulham, describing the 1st goal, our number 11 sounded pretty familiar, making a strong run down the left hand side before cutting inside and curling a shot into the far corner, the Fulham keeper was left with no chance. I suppose if Fulham agreed, as it's only a friendly, there would be no harm in us playing an over 23 player on his way back from injury.

Only guessing as there really isn't much to go on, but i bet i'm not the only one thinking that sounded like a certain South American.

Looking forward to seeing the lineups against Chelsea.

Maybe it's an ambitious hope but it would be great to see Izquierdo get a run out.

Yes we have.

But it's without a crowd.

It clashes with the Carabao Cup 1st round, so it'll most likely be against a PL team.

Per this article on the website today, our scorers were Jensen Weir and Stefan Vukoje.
