One year we get a decent north west away friendly and no one can go...

Enjoyable ground to visit (though I was in the home section).
Been used recently as a food hub for those with issues during the emergency.
Apparently a really good take-up of early season tickets (2000 suggested) to help FCUM keep going with no income - been available since the end of March.
Good centre forward too. Wonder what the transfer window may bring for him...

Do you mean Dan Cockerline or the lad who scored 30 odd in all comps last season and apparently has a £50k release clause in his contract (think his name is Olowabi or similar)

Good player but would be a risk and a massive step for him from NPL

I don’t think pre season friendlies are that “exclusive”
2 north west based league 2 sides playing away at the same north west based non league side in a pre season friendly isn’t that much of a shock

Yeah we'll have several fixtures so no shock we are playing the same team as Bolton. We can't gauge anything from these games as we lost a few pre season ones last year and won the league

I'm guessing with these played behind closed doors will we still find out about them noticed a few clubs (non league clubs) had started playing these type of games

Any chance at all friendlies might be streamed? I'd be in if the cost was reasonable.

Would have expected more announced by now. Heading into training and only 1 so far. (I know there are more arranged apparently).
