Building up fitness, getting everyone game time to carry into the lc group stages and with Covid restrictions I don't see the point in a "glamour friendly"- hardly any one can go. I was actually being sarcastic SRB 😂 Hence McDonalds & LRT bus drivers aka Spartans & some pub team. Just very sad that gone are the days when we went down south to play English teams pre season. Don’t need any fans anyway just a good camera angle so we can actually see the game. That footage of Spartans was like Evening News spot the ball from the 70s/80s. Even with my Gregory Pecks on I could nae see hee haw. Never mind.. no long now. Mon the JTs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobboM Posted July 6, 2021 Share Posted July 6, 2021 On 30/06/2021 at 19:58, Footballfirst said: Given that the season starts in 10 days time, the first team squad will be playing in the closed door games this weekend. Saturday's game against Whitehill, Monday's game against Preston Athletic and next Friday's game against Fauldhouse will all be predominately youth sides. We also have a game lined up against Bonnyrigg next Wednesday. I think there will be some senior players in that team, particularly those who won't be in the League Cup squad. 17 July is a date that is available for another game as the 1st team sits out that round of LC fixtures. Fauldhouse game off due to covid at Fauldhouse Utd Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
