Match Day Thread 2025/26 preseason match thread

It's that time of year again.

Whether we are ready for not the first game will be against Preston this Sunday at 3pm.

The game is on itv ONE live.

 

When you say itv live what do you mean? ITV1?

 

Yeh ITV1, 3pm Sunday, not Saturday

 

Yes.

Itv not itv2 nor itv3

 

Sunday?

Oh ok. Will update.

 

Thanks


Maybe you should've started the thread instead of Mr misinformation up there

 

I thought there was a question over whether the game would take place?

 

Confirmed today it will go ahead. Preston apparently in discussions on how best to honour Jota as want to show their respects.

Very surprised it’s being televised. Was that already determined or has that just happened since Jota?

 

It was always planned to be.

There's too.much on the line for Preston amd fees and such but i am also sure the players said they would want to play to honour jota anyway

 

Fair enough. Strange one, don’t remember having pre season games live on tv before?

 

Pre-season games....

 

Not really no.

It seems to have been sold only a short while before the events for this past week.

I don't know if there is some special preston occasion.

 

Glad you made this clear otherwise I might never have found it.

 

Absolutely.

I haven't the heart this week to look up the full fixture list and post it even so you are lucky I even posted this.

It'll be an odd bloody thing to be on itv and what will they talk about except the obvious.
