Pilchard Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Might do the Forest or Wolves one depending on manager really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GarethRDR Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 that be a fun game as they are meant to play very good attacking football and won Copa Sudamericana last year which i think is simialr to Europa LeagueWill be interesting to get a look at this lad, Ángelo Henríquez: Apparently Man Utd brokered a first option on the 18 year-old striker last year.

Demitri_C Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 i wonder who our prestige fixture will be against? my prediction is porto! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moose Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Wolves away on the 11th? Given that's the last Saturday before the season starts then what's going on with our usual home friendly?! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hogso Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Well the reason for not having a home friendly last summer was because of the Take That concerts...I can't think of anything that's happening at VP this summer though? Regardless, think I'll be going to the Wolves and Forest games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hev Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 How can we be playing Wolves then? Surely the Championship starts a week before the Prem usually doesn't it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
moose Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 Nope, this year it's starting on Aug 18th, to avoid clashing with the Olympics. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikeyp102 Posted May 16, 2012 Share Posted May 16, 2012 don't forget HK for the soccer sevens next weekend. academy (ish) team, but always good to see the young stars coming through all 8 HK villa fans will be in their usual spot, being mistaken for Wet Spam fans.... I remember my lad age 4 a few years back, being asked if he wanted to mascot for wet spam by someone who couldn't tell the difference between good claret and blue and shite, and the look of utter dusgust from someone so little.... pure magic... always a great weekend for anyone in the region who fancies coming over, although i haven't seen the squad for this year yet... last year, by way of example, had, if i remember correctly, herd, lichaj, baker (although injured) siegrist, forrester, weimann, D johnson... bazza bannan, sharky, ciaran, nathan delfouneso, gary g have all been out on numerous occasions, in recent years, and if you go back a few more, gabby and gary cahill played... strong competition this year - chelski, newcastle, sunderland, wet spam, rangers, celtic, leicester... although none of them have won it anywhere near as many times as we have... It's a really young squad this yr...on OS (sorry havent time to post link). Out of interest who is sharky? Brilliant about your son. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rodigan Posted May 17, 2012 Share Posted May 17, 2012 yep... seen the squad... young, but then again, i remember a squad five years ago with albrighton (sharky), zoltan steiber, harry forrester, barry bannan, elliott parish, eric lund, sam (striker, last name eludes me) - no one had ever heard of any of them, they came out and did great... looking to see young grealish play, and daniel johnson looked great in a squad last year with herd, lichaj and weimann... newcastle came on saturday night should be a good un...
