There’s already about 100 County fans booked for the week in Spain! Which week? And where?

I don't know why we keep it so much of a secret? Surely its good for the club if we've got more support out there?

Never mind going abroad, i for one would love us to have a pre season friendly at EP against some decent european side most have had heard of. Bilbao were the last opponents that i saw in a pre season home game.

Maybe the club don't want to promote it *too* much.
If it's just 200-300 dedicated fans then it's quite managable. If they start advertising it early doors and a few thousand fans, drunk off being proclaimed champions book it, then it could be more of an issue for them in terms of controlling numbers and being liable for their behaviour (not that there will be an issue, but you get what I mean in terms of managing risk).

You can't really pick and choose which fans you want going to games, either have it behind closed doors or let people take the opportunity to go

There's plenty of room at Pinatar. Preston took over 1000 last year. If the Derby rumour is true I'm sure they'd take at least double that. It's no different from any other away game really. If a few cause trouble in a few bars away from the ground the club are no more liable for that than they would be if it happened at Barnsley or Burton. Just get the dates confirmed so we can book flights. Not even fussed who we play. They could even just say we're playing Football League opposition and that's enough. I can't imagine the opposing team is going to be the deciding factor whether somebody goes or not. I'd still go if it was a Spanish schoolboys team.

The rumour was Preston in Pinatar on Friday 19th July, but have also heard we’re playing someone else instead of Preston. Whoever/whenever it is, I hope we announce it as early as possible to get flights and accommodation sorted. According to Prestons website they are going there pre season and have arranged a friendly for 11am on 12th July, no opposition named so far.

Probably not us then if 19th July is correct, can't imagine they'd be out there for over a week - Derby were there last year so maybe there's truth in that?

New kits, released/retained list and pre season friendlies? Isn’t anyone else shattered and could do with a few weeks off for a bit?
