Give it half hour,you'll get over it.

Looking at the website for the venue it looks like you sit on a grass bank to watch the game does anyone know any different

Looking at Google maps I think you are right

That’ll bring back memories of Wigan.

Yes, if it does nothing but rain there, between now and then!

Envious that Notts County have managed to arrange Darmstadt away as part of their pre season plans

Tbh I'm glad that it falls just a day or 2 after a return from my summer jollies, and miss the opportunity to see us play a Sunday league side on the Spanish equivalent of stand road park...

The Sunday league side being a fully professional team from Gibraltar. Stand Road park being a world class training centre with FIFA class pitches used by the likes of Everton, Palace, Rangers, Leicester and England U21's.
It's a game that has been organised as part of the training week, it has been open to the public for free. It is not compulsory to attend. If you see it as what it actually is you might be able to rid yourself of that superiority chip on your shoulder.

Correct if people don't want to go as they all have a choice we are going so don't spoil it for the rest of us who are going and any chance of seeing town play in Europe you take ask any Manure fan

Yes that is a shame. Been a few Times, lovely place.

We used to make more of an effort with twin towns. Seems to be forgotten about these days. I imagine council cuts not helping matters

You think they’ll be as good as Matlock?

I know nothing about them but considering Liam Jessop gets called to the national team and these are a domestic side that lost every game last season, I’m not sure they’ll be much above Sunday league.

I get that it’s part of the early pre-season prep and will have a purpose but those thinking of making the trip must surely be a little disappointed?

It’ll be like watching a game against Doe Lea on the Erwin Training ground but with the sun out.

You going M ?
