July 14 HB Koge (Stadion der Freundschaft, Grimma) 1pm FYI, the same feed of the game is on twitter and facebook.
Here is the Club's report on today's 0-0 draw against HB Hoge - http://www.fulhamfc.com/MatchAndTeam/MatchCentre/Matches/1213/PreSeason/HBKogeAway.aspx I believe Jol gave 22 players a 'run out'. Among those not include were Dempsey and Ruiz (only just joined in training), Duff (not yet joined), Rodallego (because of work permit? - he had been training with squad for most of last week), Senderos and Kelly (don't know where either of these players is).
Hmmm not so sure - he hasn't been in any Official blurb. Sidwell was taken off injured in the game yesterday but it is said to be "just a knock" - hope so with his record. Here's the latest set of pics from the Club - http://www.fulhamfc.com/Club/News/NewsArticles/2012/July/Day4InLeipzig.aspx?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter Do you reckon they're voting for Club Captain and somebody has forgotten to tell Demps about DM ? (No. 13)
The Club have announced one more friendly. Away to Nice on 4th August http://www.fulhamfc.com/Club/News/NewsArticles/2012/July/FriendlyConfirmed.aspx
Academy The Academy (or at least a Youth Team - I get quite confused with team ages and descriptors these days) flew off to Portugal today on a pre-season tour. Absolutely no details from the Club who they will play or how many games.
The 'Academy' are playing 4 games in Portugal. The first is this afternoon against SC Leixoes. http://data.b310.com/statics/en-us/teams/europe/portugal/portugal-liga-de-honora/leixoes-scleixoes-matosinhos/2840/
The youngsters drew 3-3 and by all accounts should have won. You will not believe this but Moussa Dembele (jnr) scored one of the goals. The others were by Emerson Haydon and Patrick Roberts. I don't know the full team Bidley - will see if I can get more info.
I'm just loving the fact we have two Moussa Dembele's. It's like the club is playing an elaborate practical joke.
The starting lineup for tonight's game - Stockdale; Riether, Hughes (c), Halliche, Riise; Etuhu, Gecov, Sidwell; Mesca, Trotta, Kacaniklic And the subs - Shwarzer, Hangeland, Baird, Petric, Diarra, Frei, Dalla-Valle, Briggs, Davies, Dembele, Brister, Etheridge No Dempsey. Read into it what you will.
Not too bothered about the lack of Demps, he could still be getting to full fitness. Mesca and Etuhu are in the team but that doesn't mean they'll be next year's stalwarts. Clint's not gone 'til he's gone! Chuffed for Trotta though! Go on Rodders!
Bidley, you are claire voyante - Full-time: Lokomotive Leipzig 0-4 Fulham (Trotta 2, Petric, Dalla Valle} Not sure about Rodders though ?
