Worth a sticky to keep track of our pre-season friendlies? Our first was tonight, away to Lincoln. Played a different 11 each half. @OfficialFOXES: #lcfc first half: Schmeichel, Moore, Huth, Fuchs, De Laet, Drinkwater, Hammond, Barmby, Mahrez, Ulloa, Okazaki. #LinLei @OfficialFOXES: #lcfc 2nd half XI: Schwarzer, Simpson, Wasilewski, Chilwell, Albrighton, Lawrence, King, Schlupp, Nugent, Kramarić, Vardy. #LinLei A 3-1 win, courtesy of goals from Mahrez, Kramaric and Vardy.
Some of the top teams are going abroad to do a kind of "exibition" tournament, i guess this is most of their pre-season matches booked.
I'm disappointed that we get to play quality teams in the biggest league in the world on a regular basis.

We beat Toronto 2-1 tonight, Defoe scored them both. We now have Doncaster and then off to play Hannover, before heading to Leicester
... don't knock it buddy... we have history with them that needed putting right ! .. I saw us lose there 2-0 in a League cup tie back in the early eighties ... you'd have to say that they more than matched us that day and the difference in the 2 clubs circumstances between then and now is, by comparison, almost unbelieveable ...
These tours by clubs are obviously part of spreading the word and helping make them global brands. Aren't we glad we did ours at the end of last season.
