Pre Season 2023

We usually have one high-profile VP friendly game the weekend before the league starts, don't we? Gerrard's got rid of that as well as Delaney, then, has he? Fucker.

And a Football Club is not and should not be run like an Airline

FC LuftHansa Rostock would beg to differ.

And RyanAirdrie

Airbus UK are very much run like an airline. Their ground is next to a runway for a start.

In fairness I think the Commonwealth Games being on may have something to do with it.

I would think that we will be away for our 1st league game of the season due to the commonwealth games

Announced on 16th June.

What was the last high-profile pre-season game at VP (not counting the behind closed doors ones).....Parma ?

[cdbearsfan]

Looks like Parma, 2014.

[eamonn]

Were we meant to play Sevilla last year but for Covid? Diego could have fallen in love sooner.

I remember us playing someone as a last minute replacement but can't remember who we played or who they replaced.

Salernitana wasn’t it?

[cdbearsfan]

Sounds about right 🙂

Getting to Stade Rennes

New St - Euston or Moor St - Marylebone
Eurostar St Pancras - Paris
SNCF - either TGV, or OuiGo - Rennes

[SaddVillan]

Didn't say it was cheap - just an alternative to flying.

[AV82EC]

It is an alternative but the Eurostar prices are as usual eye watering. The sooner they don’t have a monopoly on that route the better.

You need to sort out your hotel for Saturday night (unless you want to sleep in shop doorway) and get a match ticket
