Although I never spewed up many did, usually the heavy drinkers and smokers. I just remember all feeling in the legs gone and lungs busting. Great days though. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like a school inset day. In for a chat about what we are doing next term, set targets and how (not) to achieve them. Have a cup of tea, then pet shop off home early. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the point in going back to work on a Friday then 2 days off after that straight away after just having several weeks off. Typical Wednesday ways i suppose. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Footballers work most weekends last time I looked so they are more than likely to be in for a few hours on both days. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What is it? 15m shuttles instead of 20m, but with a 5m walk at the end to break up rhythm and simulate football a bit more 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The squad is so short of numbers unless there is going to be an influx of players in the next few days we are going to be struggling to put out a competitive team. Have they got a mid week cup/league game next week then? Who they playing? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In what way is that rude? 3 hours ago, Andysowls said: Any excuse for a moan How is that moaning? It was a genuine question. Things such as BMI checks and general checks. I’m sure there’s other things as well, it’s just interesting to know. Not everything is a dig and a moan. 2 hours ago, RevOwl said: Here here i'm with you pal.

It wasn’t a moan or a dig, just a genuine question. as someone has already said, there’s nothing saying they won’t be doing some thing over the weekend.

Maybe it's so they can introduce the new coaching staff to the squad and they can outline what expect from the players ready to get stuck in Monday?? We've done similar before on a Friday which is usually a half day anyway we’ve gone to a new site to do the site induction and have a wander around to assess what we need so we can hit the ground running Monday morning.

Yeah very plausible. there’s no end of reasons why it could be. I was just interested as to why Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Presumable there will be some sort of preseason as the season starts in 23 days that does not leaves us much time to get the players fit, get a few games under their belt for match sharpness before we kick off with the first game on the 5th September. Or do we just get everyone in for the end of the transfer window by that time we will probably have played 7 or 8 leagues games because of the shorten nature of this season coming up. If we pick up an injury or 2 having to play possible 10+ games in 5 or 6 weeks with cup games we could find ourselves a lot further back that 12 points from 4th bottom. Until we are out of the bottom 3 the only team we are chasing is in 21st spot. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paddyowl Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 (edited) Is there any news on Bullen and Weaver? Are they staying or leaving? Hope LB stays around the club in some capacity. Edited August 13, 2020 by paddyowl Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swiss Toni Posted August 13, 2020 Share Posted August 13, 2020 I could swear first day back is just measurement day, weigh in and fat test etc? Gives the training staff the weekend then to personalise any specific training schedules - for those needing to shift weight. Shouldn’t be a great deal of weight gained as they’ve only been off 2-3 weeks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair, we had a much bigger squad at the start of last season and still struggled to put out a competitive team! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
