Fixtures released on 20th June.
Season starts on 3rd Aug (with a live game on the 2nd).
So we’ve got six weeks to gear up for the new season, including recruitment etc.
Not sure when pre-season training and tour start but it must be in a couple of weeks time? And I feel you need to hit the ground running in the Championship. Remember our poor start last season? All very well in League One, but could be very damaging in the second tier.
Had some inconclusive news from the Aussies this morning. It doesn’t leave me feeling particularly positive if I’m honest, but hopefully there’ll be an update later.8 -

Six weeks until the next match.
The manager is on holiday, fishing.
No replacements have been signed to fill in the gaps created since letting half the team go after the last match.
No kit sponsor announced.
No contract for the manager or his assistant; and no interviews taking place for their replacements.
This isn't just a demonstration of bad management of an asset. It's criminal negligence.24 -
If we are ever owned by the Aussies, as my dad used to say, "my pricks a bloater"1

We’ve bought Bonne from Orient for £200k apparently. I assume a player sale is in the pipeline then.0

Long tweetings about how he is a family friend of Status quo and David Bowie no less. His relative wrote Starman and made all of their guitars.
.....oh..and his non league shortlist is out.
So if you're reading this Roland/Lee get on it.
If you don't Guardiola will!
Was he the one who always posted about gold prices?0 - Sponsored links:

Any chance of some facts instead of itk rubbish? Happyvalley knows the score!0

He did have biblical powers though - taken from us by the Tsunami, only to return stronger and with a greater love of gold!0 -

I might need a bit of help on that one.

When do you think the Bonne photo with Bowyer was taken? Friday? I assume LB is indeed still fishing and not back in town.0

the lack of stuff in the Sunday papers made me think this has gone too quiet. Something has to emerge this week, otherwise it's all going nowhere quickly.
And if the Aussies are miserable, then so be it, they've pissed about for two years now4 -

Is it foolish of me to think getting the Bonne deal over the line after being “on the cards for a while” is a sign things have happened in the takeover front??2
