We always have friendlies away at local non league clubs. Decent way to improve fitness and having links with local clubs is never a bad thing....

 

I’m all for that but it would be nice to have the odd game against a premier league side. What was the last interesting pre season friendly we had? Newcastle about 5 years ago?

If you think I’m anything but chilled on a lovely summers evening just because I want a decent game of football you’re mistaken ? (however after watching Latics for 30 years I probably should be used to non decent football games)!

Well lets face it preseason is for getting players up to peak fitness not winning awards.

 

You will find all top teams want to win friendlies and awards, its part of their mentality.

Something we need to instill at this club.

Players these days should retain fitness anyway after a break.

Most Prem clubs are away on lucrative pre season games abroad. All we would get would be against an 11 they had left at home.

Or players who'd been involved in the world cup starting their preseason after the rest of the squad.
