It's refreshing to have continuity and a club structure, with the right trusted people in place, rather than trying to second guess them.

[Albion] Is this the dullest pre-season ever?

Absolutely right! Of course nobody is being sent home - stupid idea. I guess it's just that scaremongering is a habit that's hard to shake off.

Seems much more exiting to me than the pre-season when the club announced the signing of Chris O'Grady, and the arrival on loan of Gary Gardner and Joe Bennett........,

A striker from Stoke City perhaps?..
Sorry just seen quote from @CowfoldSeagull

To be honest the summer goes by so quickly that before you know it the season has started again.
It's nice to have a breather, for just a couple of months. Besides, with the way our luck ran out in the final few games, it's worth just taking some time out away from domestic club football. In my humbly forthright honestly truthful opinion.

Well I for one am very much enjoying the photos/images/videos from the pre-season training camp.

Obviously there are lots of stuff going on behind the scenes but when you start seeing some of the signings the other clubs are making (not just Newcastle) then I am starting to get a little bit nervous!
Huddersfield have done well with their recruitment and they looked a good side last season and they have definitely improved the level of player there now with a good Manager - could be dark horses
Bristol City again were getting better last season and have started their recruitment well with Tomlin with more to come
Leeds have signed some good players too - although it looks like Lewis Cook is going to Bournemouth which is a blow for them. However they will be a bit unknown this season with Monk in charge.
Newcastle - enough said - favourites for a reason
Even Villa are being sensible and starting to build from the back, 2 good signings (Goalkeeper & nearly that Reading player) along with Elphick
No doubt Derby will be starting to buy soon once Pearson is familiar with his squad, and Sheff Wed are splashing big money as well.
So yeah I know we've got a great squad already but we do need to get some better quality players in for some positions.
Anyway that's my nervous rant over for now!

Antoine Griezemann is on his way to the Amex. That'll spice things up a bit.
Just goes to show, I would never have had him down as a Jehovah's Witness
