[Albion] Pre-season Friendlies 2020-21: First team, U-23s and U-18s

[AZ Gull]

I was just browsing twitter, as one does, and I came upon a tweet from Whitehawk FC earlier today announcing their pre-season friendly programme. Their schedule includes a match against the Albion U-23 squad. It gives a date and time but no venue; they state that all matches will be behind closed doors "with full media coverage". In response to a question they state "All will be either away from home or at a neutral venue."

Anyway, it made me realise that I hadn't even thought about creating this thread for this coming season, and it is time to put that right. Who knows what the pre-season campaign will look like, in these crazy, discombobulating times; but all the more reason to share what info we find. So if you hear of your local team (or any team, for that matter) scheduling a fixture against an Albion side, please post it here and I'll add it to the list.

1st Team:

?


U-23s:

Aug 19 v Whitehawk (7:00pm at ?)


U-18s:

Whitehawk"s matches behind closed doors are no worries. I'll be on the large hill outside. Socially distanced, of course.

Listening to the radio? (You may wish to read the opening post again).

By the way, I think the U-23s may be reporting back tomorrow (Friday).

Not by the club, as far as I have seen (nor Cameron Peupion yet).

I think they have a few days of "home training" to start with.

For some reason I have the 12th August in my mind, but I'm not sure why?
