And he's often in touch with people at Charlton
They ended up just 4 points above the relegation spots, and scored 48 goals in 46 matches, so expect a high scoring thriller at The Valley...0 -

            I have never been to a home friendly before. Been to about 10 away ones for first team or under 23s. These are always non-league grounds. Can't see the appeal of home friendlys.0

            The 2016/17 season is yet to finish but yet we announce pre-season friendly for 2017/18. I'd better start my Christmas shopping this weekend.0

As long as we don't hire him because he lives close!Nicholas said:
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.Swisdom said:

            The need for home friendlies is to get the new players to know the pitch and how to avoid smoke bombs.2

They're bloody there for match fitness NOTHING more - We have this argument every summer about the opposition when it doesnt matter who we face because the results dont matter, even when had Curbs and Powell as Manager we had shite friendly opponents!!2 -

Yeah sorry that as well but why do we need to play expert opponents to put those aspects into practice?LargeAddick said:

I would guess because if you play only teams that are a long way behind your technical ability it's no test of those aspects.ForeverAddickted said:

There is an obvious gap in that schedule - July 22nd, for example - and I expect they would be looking to play someone better than Dover and the previous opposition in it.0 - 
            Sheffield United didnt overly test themselves over the Summer though...?

            Probably a local league two team away on the Saturday 22nd July
No insider knowledge but guessing it will be Crawley.0 -
