  1. Just wonder how we will keep everyone happy with no reserve league this year, how will they all keep fit?!

     

    Thoughts?

    By playing i the 3 cup competitions. Or playing anyone we want in a reserve friendly, perhaps Doncaster who use the same system.

     

    Did them no harm last season.

  2. is this over yet? was expecting a victory tonight, but im quite pleased with the 3-0 score line. not bad for the first game back with a variety of new players in there.

     

    not getting excited yet tho. i never read too much into preseason

    Yeah, it'll be finished now.

     

    And I agree, Sheridan's comments will be worth more than the scoreline. The first couple of friendlies especially are for just getting back into the swing of things and so forth.

  3. Comments on another forum:

     

    "First Grant for £130k now Zola for £200k. We're the Chelsea of League One, only :censored:e. Still over spending on average players."

     

    "Worst signing of the Summer by miles. What the hell is going on at Crewe? He'd be a bad signing if he was a free transfer, but £200k?!"

  4. Someone said most League One teams keep their kit for ages, this is not actually the case, many teams actually have a new HOME kit every year as well as an away one. Swansea also bring out a new away kit every 6 months.

     

    Also, lower league teams with the likes of Adidas and Nike actually do their deals with UK subsidary companies, the kind who do "Get a Nike kit for your team!" deals. You'll notice they're just the same design on all of them but with different colours.

     

    Here are some other League One kits, for comparison:

     

    Carlotti - Scunthorpe Away

     

    Adidas - Peterborough Home

    Adidas - Peterborough Away Kits (note the black kit is exactly the same as Derby's away kit!!!)

     

    Vandanel - Northampton Home

    Vandanel - Yeovil Away

     

    Nike - Hartlepool Away

     

    Errea - Bristol Rovers Home

    Errea - Cheltenham Home & Away

     

    Puma - Leyton Orient Home & Away

     

    Jako - Leicester Home

     

    swift? - Walsall Home & Away

     

    Mitre - Huddersfield Home

  5. What a conisedence. I've spent most of my life in Frankfurt (Spaarbrucken). Cought a game or two, Borussia and Bayern.

    Yeah, they have a group of fans that get to a Latics game every year, they came to Oldham vs Leeds last season. They have a cool half-blue/half-red and black flag too, which Franny got them to show off to everyone a few years ago, hehe.

  6. This could be something Sky Sports News could run.

     

    "It may be 16 days until the new Premier League season, but the Football League kicks off in just 9 days time! And one fan has already set off for the first match..."

     

    Then at the end they could give a website for people to make donations.
