Pre-season 13:49 - May 17 with 39050 viewsderbyhoop

Are we bothering this year?
Who would be responsible for organising it? Where, how many games, against who?

Goals from Saturday. The trialist who scores our second is a big geezer!

Briefly thought Hamzad Kargbo was back! Wouldn't be pre-season without him scoring a stunner against a non-league team

Poll: Moses Odubajo - Stick or Twist?

For context, and on the value of pre season games, Coventry got beat 5-1 versus Chatham town.

A Chatham Town player called Oldfield scored a first half hattrick. They must have been playing with tubular balls.

Although they are in the Isthmian League, I've read that Chatham are operating this season with a mixture of full professionals & part time professionals. What that will cost in wages is anyones guess.

I'm assuming that their owner has very deep pockets & hopefully it won't go wrong for them if the owner leaves.

Last day in Canet today. I really can’t recommend the place enough for a quiet few days away (Friday excepted- glad I didn’t have a flight to catch after that).

Lovely moment here right at the end where Stephan makes a little French noise before saying "to understand well what is a first game at Loftus Road". Getting a good feeling about this guy, I can see him becoming really popular.

No, but it doesn't look like he's from Uzbekistan.

Talking of which though, whatever happened to the lad from Sudan we were taking on trial and the Nigerian lad we had apparently signed?

Edit - the Nigerian lad moved to Croatia

Can we get a price on them for whatever league they’re in this season?

We should ban leagues and just do a winner stays on way of deciding the world's best team.

Interesting to see the squad for the Soccer7s Series in Singapore this weekend, particularly as it includes Trujillo, our exciting 16 year old Colombian.

Kasey Taylor, Jaiden Putman, Jake Leahy, Alex Wilkie, Charlie Street, Rico Kennedy, Fraser Neill, Ridwan Hassan, Archie O’Brien, Ashley Trujillo.

According to the Saints fans at work, they were battered and should have easily lost!!

Surely he's better than some of the novices that were on show in today's game against Cardiff.
