We will be welcoming relegated Prem side Reading to the Mem on Sunday 28th July 3pm KO. http://www.bristolrovers.co.uk/news/article/reading-friendly-855613.aspx
Friday 19th vs Derby 7.45pm KO then Sunday 28th Vs Reading 3pm KO. Very good work out indeed. But I think the likes of Bath and Hereford would be better work outs for us as they will be more determined.
I'm sure it won't make much difference to the attendance but the Reading match is against a Reading XI...which usually indicates a less than full strength team. http://www.readingfc...613-855468.aspx
I'll most probably drag my sorry ass to at least one of the games but we must remember these pre season friendlies are all about raising fitness and players getting to know the system and each other. The result and to an extent the performance is not that relevant. Memories of Buckle are still haunting me, he had a great pre season if you recall but then totally ****ed our club up.
under buckle, great pre season and was crap during the season. under mcghee, poor pre season and was crap during the season. under ward?????
