They've just announced some new pre-season games. Wednesday away and then Rotherham and Huddersfield at home. Still haven't announced our marquee game yet though.

I'm amazed i thought there wouldn't be any chance of me obtaining a Nantes ticket, to my amazement this morning still had some left.
So that's flight,accommodation and now match ticket sorted!!!!

Must admit i thought 300 tickets would get snapped up in no time.

Thought Worcester City away might be nice on a Saturday, although it seems to be at Stourport Swifts' ground.

Nice ground but not so easy by public transport.

Is Worcester under water again, or are they just ground-sharing with Stourport?

Ground sharing with Bromsgrove Sporting but ground not ready yet. Obviously rented Swifts ground as a one off

They haven't had a ground of their own for ages, sold it for housing without ever managing to build a new one! Were groundsharing at Kidderminster but Kiddy tried tried to shaft them by putting the rent up massively so now they've fucked off to Bromsgrove for a bit.

Thanks guys, don't think I'll bother if it's difficult to get to on public transport.

Guzan not going either, he about to be sold maybe (hopefully)?

I'd like to see Richards, Bacuna, either Cissokho or Bennett, Gabby and Kozak also shown the door.
