Who would we all like to see realistically on the schedule?
Charlton cancelled in August and we don't appear in their listed games for next season yet.
Personally I think it would be great to get a couple of Championship sides down but would like some testing opponents from the BSP / BSS to get a prepared for the season.

Chatham have got Gillingham.
Will ours be the usual selection?

I had hoped something more interesting might come from the cup run.

We won’t get Gillingham until plod have a change of heart. Deliberately priced so the club can’t afford it.

It will be an excuse for the wankers of both sides to piss everybody sensible off and further damage our clubs diminishing popularity

I had hoped something more interesting might come from the cup run. Probably would if we played on grass but big teams don't like 3G therefore will only send youth teams if they send anyone at all.

What about Chesham and Needham Market - to celebrate two recent Cup opponents' promotion?
Who needs Gillingham and Charlton (those games are always duds anyway) - let's have a bit of non-league love!

In recent years, and maybe longer, pre season friendlies have been mostly non events. FL clubs only send their youth team, while we have so many trialists and changes during the games they only have meaning to the managers and coaches. Which is what it is supposed to be, of course, but rarely makes much of a spectacle. "Big" clubs can get around this by playing round robin tournaments, which perhaps add a bit of interest and wonder if that might be they way forward. A revised KSCup? Games against NPL teams? Got to be something more interesting than what we get at the moment.

Got to be something more interesting than what we get at the moment. That's not a bad idea - and, if it replaced the KSC, it would solve that problem as well. They could do it as (say) two groups, and then the winners of each group play a final. Something to give some point to PSFs and maybe even get a few more people watching. As for trialists - this is something that pisses me off every pre-season, we go to games, we see someone who impresses - but we have absolutely no idea who they are! They should at least have accurate team/squad sheets available for PSFs. To be honest, I go to PS games mainly because I've missed football over the summer and I want to see the new signings, but mostly they are a waste of time, as I have no idea who is who most of the time.
