Probably is but I am sure there is precedent for thisa really odd one has just popped up

we are going to play on august 7th at deepdale against german opposition.
this suggests the ground even with a closed anfield road end is simply not ready to host a game and the level of opponent suggests they were not willing to say go to Ireland and rent a stadium for a game was this opponent wouldn't fill it. (we did that a couple times with bigger games)
I really think that stadium is well behind. Everyone is saying its "on track"
We just end up playing away don’t we for a bit
