Pre season friendlies confirmed

Colchester?

Verbal agreement from Arsenal, just need it in writing with a finalised date.

But having said that, it's the Albion, there will be a cock up somewhere along the line

That was at the end of the season not the beginning.

I seem to remember us playing Leicester one pre-season and the gate was poor.

Wasn't it arranged really late-notice, and the night before the Lewes game, which traditionally a lot of people go to?

That Leicester game was arranged a while in advance.

i thought we could have pre season friendlies at the Withdean now that we have bought the seats?

We can, but the club loses money on them at less we get something like a 5800+ gate i think, hence only Kerrys testimonial is there

Tuesday July 25th, 7:45, Colchester

So that's why Ferret said Kerry's testimonial definitely wouldn't be on the Tuesday!

I hope they announce the day soon.

Ah fair enough then. All I remember is that it was definitely arranged after the Lewes game was, because I know Lewes were a bit pissed off that they ended up playing against our reserves.

Mayo's testimonial will be against decent opponents

Yeah but how many of our squad will actually be playing, aren't we having lots of guest appearences from Zamora, Ward, Virgo and the like ?

 

[Brighton Breezy]

Aldershot?

SMART

Hastings? Part of the Loft deal because he was not contracted.
