Maybe we should do the same to generate extra income?

When Leeds trainer Les Cocker was once told Norman Hunter had broken a leg, he asked: “Whose is it?”

Who would pay for a stream of a pre-season friendly against Peterborough?

Oh - me circa 2015. We scored a good team goal from memory in probably our best pre-season ever. I think we played ten, won ten with Amond getting around a goal a game.

I would think that clubs themselves would have to arrange the screening of friendlies whereas full league games would be filmed by the same company that provides the feeds for Sky and Quest as were last season's away games we paid £10 to watch.

We haven't even started practising together as a team yet.

I reckon we won't have any pre-season friendlies this year. With only 4 weeks until kickoff I think we should concentrate on learning how the new signings play with our contracted players. Considering we could get as many as 10 new players it could be interesting to see how Ollie deals with it.

Thought Ollie said we couldn't even resume full group training until Thursday ? Was that this coming or last Thurs ? Seems strange two other clubs have have a friendly set up already when all we have seen is 6 of the local living lads on exercise bikes and running around cones.

Like you I am not sure we will have pre season friendlies either, can't see the club wanting the added expense of opening up the ground , medical staff, skeleton ground staff, for no income.
Maybe they will try and get an away fixture or two in.

I still don't get why pubs and restaurants can open but a team like Clee can't house games in front of a paid crowd in a mainly open air facility?

First pre-season announced against Clee Town, behind closed doors with Clee providing a live stream.

This is fair.  We've got an existing agreement with Clee Town where we take a team there every year and provide a suitable boost to their coffers as a result.  Only fair this continues via the streaming income.
