    PRE-SEASON TAKES SHAPE
    Posted on: Mon 23 May 2011

    Neil Warnock will be taking his Premier League troops to Cornwall and Italy this summer, just as he did in preparation for the 2010/11 npower Championship campaign.

    The Reserves and Youth Team will also be heading to the West Country, where a total of nine games will be played.

    The gaffer told www.qpr.co.uk this morning: "With my links to Cornwall, I am inundated every year, and unfortunately have to disappoint an awful lot of people.

    "So I am really pleased that we will be taking the First Team, Reserves and Youth Team there this pre-season.

    "It's great down there, the training facilities are fantastic. But, more importantly than that, it gives the players a real opportunity to bond with each other.

    "I have found it beneficial throughout my career to take teams there, and I don't see any reason to change it now.

    "There are super facilities for us in Italy too. It's great to be working with the sunshine on your back, and again it gives the lads plenty of time to relax before coming back and getting ready for the big kick-off."

    The First Team kick-off their pre-season campaign on 15th July when they visit Harrow Borough.

    On Sunday 17th July they travel to Cornwall where they will play Tavistock (18th), Plymouth Argyle (20th) and Bodmin Town (22nd).

    The R's return to London straight after their final fixture before flying out to Italy on 25th July, where they will stay until 1st August.

    Two fixtures will take place during their week in Milano Marittima, although the details of these games are still to be confirmed.

    Upon their return, the First Team will visit Crawley Town on 2nd August.
