Any idea how strong their side is likely to be? Odds against could be a gift if they are taking it in any way seriously.

[moondog]

Don't see why it won't be any different to their league side. virtually all U23's that finished 4th in the 2nd tier last season

[Westbars Spireite]

Should be technically streets ahead of us?

and much more suited to the conditions, too?

Might be one for you Moondog..

The ground we are playing at this weekend (and tonight) is home to Lusitano VRSA a 3rd div Portuguese team (they also play other games elsewhere) have a friendly pencilled at home Saturday at 11am (assuming midday local time?) here - http://uk.soccerway....etubal/2478823/

Is that likely to be played at the same venue or elsewhere in Santo Antonio? Potential for a double header I'm thinking if can drag myself off the beach.

I'm assuming everyone who is out there is building bridges by wearing their boa morte and Martinez town shirts??

I accidentally put on my "no more bailouts" Brexit shirt on.

Trouble is Dave Allen saw it. I think we might be up for sale again.

Good bit of research there mate I'm impressed.

It seems to me they've brought forward their kick off time from the usual 3pm to accommodate our fixture, although they do sometimes play at the "Campo de Jogos Francisco Gomes Socorro" about a mile away so it might be there.

Portugal is on same time zone as UK

I've not got the brownie points with the Missus do both, in fact she'd probably kill me if I suggested it, but an option for the fellow fanatic

I plan on doing a bit of a recce of the bars of Monte Gordo before tonight's match will post up any tips or recommendations after.

Ahh cheers, had spotted they alternated fixtures quite regularly so wondered where it might be, but with them playing a Prem side it might be a draw for the locals but will keep digging.

Nice one, our apartment is in Monte Gordo also, doesn't look like a big place but enough bars for a few beers both days I imagine.

are the bars on the windows

Lineup out - cm the obvious weak point again but hopefully when the new signings have joined the team and sinnot isn't being rested we'll be looking good. Going for the twin battering ram approach up top with ugwu and o'grady, lookin forward to seeing how that works. Should be a decent game.

[whittman]

For anyone at the ground now are there tv cameras present for any possible live streaming of tonights match?

Its alright saying there is a stream on the internet but if there are no tv cameras present that would make streaming highly unlikely lol

Just tried logging in and they're asking for credit card details.

I'll guess I'll pass on that one !

Thats why I asked earlier if there are any cameras at the ground to provide the live feed to possibly make entering the card details worthwhile

Not looking like its on Benfica Tv anyway because they are showing handball at the moment

[moondog]

At the match right hassle getting in. It was easier last year ! Benfica officials on the door insiistiijg it was behind closed doors as their game
