    will probably get to the welling game date depnendant as chance for a drink up with pals local.
  • Welling friendly is normally quite enjoyable. Especially with no summer tournament, will probably go along if it's a nice day.

    Always good to face higher league opposition pre-season to test ourselves. Town fans will be disappointed of course.

    But Mick Mc lives close by so it's easier for him.

    And he's often in touch with people at Charlton

    TBF I'd imagine many see Charlton Athletic that way too - and ready salted is actually my favourite flavour !

    So we arranged a friendly game because their manager lives close to Charlton. You know what that actually wouldn't surprise me with these freaks in charge.
