Bristol Rovers using St Andrews as a base, would be good to get a friendly v them, mate is a Rovers fan, also a United fan, comes up here a few times a year to watch us.

When I was a kid the season ended and you always had an empty feeling because you knew it was months before your team would play again.
Thoughts emerged like I wonder if players have summer jobs. Or who will we sign in August if wee Ernie opens the purse strings.

Ok only kidding. But as a 12 year old the *close season was a depressing prospect.  We would turn to other activities like getting wet in rivers or caravanning somewhere even wetter than home. Or trying golf on a municipal course, or climbing something that no one should reasonably attempt to climb.  And there was strawberries and raspberries to get sick on.
The sun shone every day without fail. Life was good. But football was a thing of the past.

Now you have an afternoon siesta and the new season's already going.

*close season.. file with United ace/Stalwart/Resounding win/Midfield dynamo/Won't want to see that one back/cheeky lob/marauding winger/purse strings/feel free to add more cliches ....

So league cup starts with Stirling Albion away on 11 July.  We have the Saturday before the league starts free (25 July) so expect we will have a friendly that weekend, plus at least 2 before the Stirling game.  Nothing announced yet by the club.  Saw rumours of Salford City away.

Fixtures out a week on Thursday for the league. 

5 new signings now announced which is decent for start of June. Not many rumours of anymore but we have been good at keeping stuff quiet until it’s pretty much done over last couple years.

New strips hopefully revealed in next couple of weeks.

World Cup starts on Thursday of course!!

Apparently back to St Andrews on the 22nd of this month.

Rumours we’re playing Salford mate last weekend in July

This is there first season back in orange/tangerine, not sure if it might be something to do with that 🤷‍♂️
