Too pay, you either will have to go through the bar, or there is gate.

Stuart
Do you know that, or are you just trying to make a guess look like informed comment ?

Although that's what happened at Raunds prior to the start of this season, it was much later in the Friendly calendar. This will be just before the team head off to Devon, assuming that gets confirmed, so will be at the equivalent time to the St Johnstone game before the start of this season.

I very much doubt the team will already have been picked ;)

I would be surpried if too many first teamers are played - but who cares! A ground that for most of us will be nice and close, and for those who are really tight, you'll probably be able to watch most of the game from outside of the fence :lol:

Wouldn't have thought we would risk many first teamers, since they are listed as an amateur club, I doubt we'd want to risk possible injurys to our first team players...

Maybe like Stuart said it will be a mix of Youth and reserve players, possibly with some trialists.

They are at the same level (11) as Halstead Town were when we played them two seasons ago - and we saw all the first teamers that evening.

It's now been moved to Wednesday 21st - http://www.thediamondsfc.com/page/Youth ... 10,00.html - so it will be an option for those fans not going to the Devon Tournament.
