First wave of pre-season friendlies announced:

Friday July 12th vs Rushden & Higham at Hayden Road, Chris Ruff memorial.

Thursday July 18th vs Leyton Orient at Hayden Road.

Saturday July 27th vs Histon at Hayden Road, Dale Roberts memorial.

Saturday August 3rd vs Daventry at Elderstubbs.

Is there a possibility of a friendly vs Northampton/Peterborough as we're technically the Hillier Cup champions?

Home friendly against JE's Leyton Orient who won the National League yesterday is a good one, should get a decent crowd for that, maybe even a few away fans too. Just hope if he ever manages in the Premier League, he still brings his team to play us :cool:

Maunsell Cup game which is home to Northampton to be confirmed at a later date.

So happy that we managed to secure the Leyton Orient friendly we all wanted. Plus the cobblers match to be arranged.

Maybe a Sheffield Utd XI featuring Billy Sharp would be nice :wink:

It's nice to see we have pre season fixtures up for next season, and it's nice to see JE back with Leyton Orient.
