Pre-Season Friendlies 2012

[darren woolley]

What no Walsall friendly this season.

[spaf]

Shiver me timbers.

[Toronto Villa]

I'll start a thread nearer the game vs Philadelphia. Give a place for fellow H&V travellers to meet up and have a pint.

[UK Redsox]

My cousins, John Paul and Patrick H, and family will attend. JP is in the Fire dept where the team started. The fire dept are predominantly Irish origin.
Chicago Fire as a team are no pushover. The represent the pride of Chicago! It'll be a big day[/quote

I went to a Seattle @ Chicago game a few years back. Great evening's entertainment.

The ground is easy to get as well by public transport. Just take the Orange Line to Midway and then hop on the free shuttle bus (hopefully it'll be running for Villa's visit).

No sign of a game v Shamrock Rovers then ?
I thought we owe them one as a part of the Enda Stephens transfer deal.

[Chipsticks]

Does anybody know when tickets will be sale? ...or have a full list of all our friendlies?

Can't find anything on the OS about them.

[AvFc4eVeR]

Heres a list, not sure on tickets.

Just realised there was already a friendlies thread before I started this one. And I've posted in it... D'oh!

If that's true, it could be a 'Villa XI' that play them.

[bertlambshank]

We could play that most cup weekends.

[Chipsticks]

When will the tickets for these go on sale?

I asked the question a while back and the club told me they were finding it impossible to agree a date (probably due to Shamrock's Champions League involvement) so it'll most likely be next pre-season now, although the 28th July is still a free weekend so you never know.

Whats happened to the 'glamour' friendly we tend to have had the last few seasons (Valencia, Braga, Fiorentina, Benfica)?  I assume that's Forest away this year then?  Suppose it's quite apt considering last season.

[Rob92]

I'll aim to go to Forest and maybe Wolves. Shame there's no game at VP.
