Pre-season

Pre-seasons are becoming as much for commercial reasons as for footballing reasons. There have been a few managers complaining in recent years about where matches have been played.

Moan about playing Juve, Real Madrid...

Play Celta at Tranmere...

The best ever pre-season reminded :lol:
 
We are going to be playing teams at our current level so a tour of Andorra, Gibraltar or Malta is on the cards.
 

If it's not already organised in full then we have reached a whole new level of ineptitude. Most teams have already announced most of their schedule.

It's one of the main reasons people are so despondent about Steve Walsh still being in post.

Even if we do replace Walsh and Allardyce their replacements will now be inheriting someone else's pre season.

Not a disaster but these self inflicted wounds take their toll.

It has been announced...training camp in Austria.....
 
It’s Austria isn’t it for early pre season work? Play a friendly or two with the squad made up of those not at the World Cup - so a big contingent - supplemented by eight or nine of the U23s and the U19s who get a new contract. We’ve then usually done Germany (Paderborn/Dresden),Scotland (Hearts, Dundee), Spain (Malaga). Sorry forget Moonheads trip to Holland. Then a favour or two to local sides in the North West unless there is a few quid on offer in Malaysia, Africa or America! Before a finale against B class European opposition at home at before an empty Goodison where we typically get beat.

So, the short of it, could be anywhere!! Had a ball myself on some our pre-seasons, enjoyed Malaga myself. Taking pens on the pitch at La Roselada on the morning of the match was the highlight of another Everton nil trip in Europe!
