PSF Chat 24/25

[valefan16]

One more friendly added away at Bath City on Saturday 20th July. Now this sounds like a fun one to go to. We won’t have played there since Bristol Rovers used it as their old stomping ground for a bit.

Assume the Pre Season Camp is in Somerset then rather than our usual Alicante!

We now have a pre season training camp to start things off in Portugal (no games) and we've also added a game vs RCD Mallorca, sadly not away from home, but a behind closed doors game in the UK.

6th July - Matlock Town (A) - 3pm
13th July - Notts Forest (H) - 3pm
16th July - Alfreton Town (A) - 7.45pm
20th July - Sheffield United (H) - 3pm
24th July - Derby County (H) - 7:45pm
2nd Aug - Scunthorpe (A) - 7.30pm

Nothing on 27th yet and we drew Derby in cup so no idea if that will go ahead. We're in Spain this week too

We’ve added a game away at MSV Duisburg on 20th July, just sorted out a dirt cheap trip over for it this morning, should be great fun.

Ahead of the PSF Tournament, these are the friendlies I have for the first week - am I missing anything:

05/07/2024​		06/07/2024​		07/07/2024​
Bishop's Cleeve v Cheltenham		Accrington v Blackburn		Crusaders v Salford
Penrith v Carlisle		Chorley v Bradford
Newcastle Town v Port Vale		Matlock v Chesterfield
		Bamber Bridge v Fleetwood
		Kendal v Morecambe
		Kidsgrove v Port Vale
		Swindon Supermarine v Swindon Town

If I'm missing anything - give me a shout.

A reminder of the rules:

- Games must be two 45 min halves - no three lots of 30 mins or any of that bullshit.
- Teams must be predominantly first teams, as Morecambe have 5 players signed on, the minimum number of senior pros will be 5
- The table is decided by Points per Game, then Goal Difference, then Goals Scored. If still level after that, I'll think of something else.

Games against Walking Football Teams don't count surely?!

We have added Burton Albion Away in the "Bass Charity Vase" on July 27th

We have added Burton Albion Away in the "Bass Charity Vase" on July 27th

This is a very old trophy which might mean something to someone for winning it. Although no one outside of a de13 -14 postcode has ever heard of it.
We have played it against Stoke, Leicester and derby in the past.
Basically it’s a pre season friendly with a trophy bought from sports direct to present for winning.

Charlie Wyke limping off in 30 minutes into his first PSF I'm hearing. Oh dear.

 

[kieran_vale]

First one done tonight. 3-1 win at Newcastle Town. Tolaj and Chislett X2 the scorers. Good workout, named separate teams in each half.

I was there. He walked off. Not really a limp.

He got smashed on the shin but played on, then about 20 minutes later got kicked in the face so went off.

I’d be surprised if either the shin or head injury are that serious.

 

[hellogregory]

Penrith 0-8 Carlisle

A few concerning signs for me in the performance however.
