Inverurie Ram Posted May 14, 2023 Share Posted May 14, 2023 Paul Warne said they have been organised. Last season the Rams kicked off their pre-season schedule away to League Two outfit Bradford City at Valley Parade on Saturday 9th July (3pm kick-off), before they hosted Bundesliga side Hertha Berlin at Pride Park Stadium on Saturday 16th July (4pm kick-off). Three days later, the Rams took on League Two side Stevenage at the Lamex Stadium on Tuesday 19th July (7:30pm kick-off), before concluding their pre-season games with a home clash against Premier League outfit Leicester City at Pride Park Stadium on Saturday 23rd July (1pm kick-off). The games were live on RamsTV. Here’s hoping for some great fixtures and sunshine. ☀️ Rammy03, Nishfan and RoyMac5 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tamworthram Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 Whilst it may be nice for the fans, I’m hoping there are no games against foreign teams. I really don’t see what they do to help us prepare for another season in league 1. I reckon they should be against teams from the lower end of the championship or upper end of league 2. Maybe even Notts County away again. They may not be quite such glamorous games but preseason friendlies should be about preparation for the upcoming campaign not putting on a showcase for the supporters.

Edit: I suppose games against random teams are better for match fitness than just more training but not (IMO) as useful as games against teams similar to those we’re likely to face in the league.

Srg Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 I get the feeling we will be going somewhere for a bit of a camp from what PW has said. Not sure if that will be UK or abroad though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EnigmaRam Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 Hopefully they go away to Spain and have a friendly whilst there. My son finishes his GCSE in June so we’d try and get to have a few days in the sun and catch the friendly if it falls right Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadAmster Posted May 15, 2023 Share Posted May 15, 2023 Rumours of a training camp not far from Benidorm. No friendlies though as the Guardia Civil didn't fancy having to deal with an influx of Rams on top of the usual rowdy holidaymakers. Any truth in it? No idea.

I'm sure on that Moment of Truth podcast he mentioned that he likes to take the players away to places like Iceland, rather than a sunny camp in Portugal or Spain.

Personally I go jam first if whipped cream, jam second if using clotted cream. I have both feet planted in the Tamar. Kernow 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
