    I’m planning to head over. 

    Roughly how many have we had do these trips historically? 
    I reckon we’ll have about eight first team players by mid-July.

    I have been looking but finding it hard to find a decent deal. £400 for 3 nights is best I’m looking at with half decent hotel

    Just looked on Sky Scanner, for a Wednesday 12th - Monday 17th trip to Malaga, flights are around £70-£90 return (variety of flights from Gatwick, Stanstead and Luton)

    If you want to stay in Malaga itself, then hotel prices start around £50 a night

    Donchya know, it's the Youth Team U18 pre-season trip to Malaga, as a reward for their stunning season.

    Supporters will also be able to watch what little remains of last season's squad of senior players, cleaning boots and fag duties.  :p

    When we played Gaz Metan in Spain, I was the only (non-family) supporter there. I think.

    Was Gaz Metan the one that got abandoned?

    Don't know about Spain but went on a pre season to Ireland once and there were probably 300 plus.
  • The issue here maybe related to who is going to pay for this trip?!

    Cant see TS covering staff/players flights and accommodation for this when he plans to exit soon & new owners are also unlikely to fund it until a deal is done.
    Maybe I'm really cynical these days but I suspect the fans will.

    I can see it now. Fly out with the players for  £800 each.

    Yes, the (Spanish) ref sent off a Gaz player, and their manager asked for an enforced substitution instead of 10 men (sensible in a friendly). 
    Ref said no, and the Gaz boys headed for the shower.

    Why do they have to make the Welling game a ticket only one, with no walk up tickets on sale,
    I do not want to sign up to their website nor do I want to buy a ticket until I know what the weather is like.

    So they don't have to pay the staff :wink:

    Just looked up flights to Malaga, £737 return for 2 people, not including hotel, I think Welling sounds more appealing for me (financially).

    Slough is not too far for me. Lovely little ground as well.

    Can only do 2-3 nights as things stand, so will await the pre-season game date and time, alongside when the open training session will be. Anything else of beauty, culture or cuisine will be a bonus. 
    Wish they’d hurry up & release some details on this. I’m at the Blur/Weller gig on the Sunday, but would like to fly out on the Monday. Just the venue for now would help, so we can work out the area to stay & can book accommodation. 
    Meanwhile, the club can confirm that the pre-season friendly against Leyton Orient in Spain scheduled for Friday, July 14th, will take place at the Marbella Football Center in the Malaga region.

    I think it is a good fixture personally. Hearts were very competitive a while back and I remember in the 70s when St Johnstone bought a mob that infiltrated the Covered End.

    I assume there will be one more first team game before the Aberdeen one, something similar to the Sutton away game last summer against a L2 side

    That guarantees a Play-Off Semi-Final against them then

    The last two Finals we've reached, saw us play both Ipswich and Doncaster five times across those seasons

    Great that they’ve confirmed that it’s at the same place as the Thursday training session now. Going out on the Wednesday, back Sunday 😎

     has anybody received anything from the club re costs to attend the session and game? Would like to know whether it is free, £10s, 100s or 1000s? No point booking flights and hotel until known.

    Trying to find a flight and hotel nearby for under £500 is proving difficult and that’s for 3 nights
