Friendlies 2011 - Updated 8 August again, 1 fewer youth game

This news story will contain all the details for our friendly programme in 2011 and we’ll change the date in the title every time it’s updated, so keep checking back. These are our Friendlies Criteria for this season.

Pre-season often seems a little crowded, because we try to play enough friendly games to ensure all squad members benefit from a complete programme of pre-season matches. We might squeeze one or two more into this list.

A preview of the games can be found here.

Youth games
We’ve planned the usual mix of 1st team and FCXI games, but this season we’re also going to keep you updated about some of the more interesting youth team fixtures. We have an excellent crop of players graduating from this season’s NWYA League Champions, several of whom have already seen 1st team action and we have an exciting bunch of new youngsters coming through who will be trying to retain that title.
