    You wait forever for your dream game and then it's behind closed doors in Wales

    When was the last time Welling wasn't the 'traditional pre-season curtain raiser'? Won't feel right not seeing that phrase on the OS this year!

    Glad we don't have to have them in our ground.

    Tweet today says the Celtic game will kick off our pre-season, so presume Welling game won’t be 7th July anymore

    That's weird. I would of thought that the bigger team, Welling would take precedence.

    Imagine it'll be a behind closed doors affair with players getting a maximum of 45 minutes each. Might even be a rolling subs situation. The first proper 90 minute match will be reserved for Welling, I'm sure.

    What does Celtic's European football look like this summer? (Genuine question, not a dig)

    Can imagine their fitness will be levels above ours by early July.

    Celtic are in the Champions League but start in the second qualifying round.



    First leg 20–21 July, second leg 27–28 July so I would expect them to be ahead of us in terms of preparations.

    Although since the Celtic board are still faffing about appointing a manager  (howe still favourite) who knows if they will be ready.

    NARAWA will still win.

    I’m much more excited about the idea of going to Dartford away than watching us play Celtic on a stream.

    They also have a friendly lined up against West Ham in July - The first game of the SPL is also around 31st July so starts a week earlier than us so I'd expect Celtic to return for pre-season sooner and so be fitter than our players (well thats probably going to be a given anyway)
