The game against Sporting Lisbon - is that on Friday 2nd August or Saturday 3rd? The official website has it down as Friday 3rd and everywhere else has copied that mistake!

Err...that was last season.

We don’t know who we are playing in the “prestige” friendly yet.

Planning my working rota for Pride weekend. Any news on a prestige game and on what date, 2nd or 3rd August. Guessing it will be the Friday night as usual.

Nice find (that is the location where we played Fortuna Duesseldorf two years ago).

New contracts for Cochraine and longman too both seem decent prospects especially cochraine

Not exactly "new", as they were announced back on May 14, but I'm not going to complain about the club carrying news stories about the U-23s on their website.

And if you've agreed "a groundbreaking new partnership with global investment platform eToro" then you have to flog the sponsorship for all it is worth, even though a tagline of "Re-hashing old news we first brought you 7 weeks ago by @eToro" would be more accurate:-
