Am I reading a year old thread or are we just playing everyone that we played last year?

Very surprised we are playing Maidstone again, thought we picked up a number of injuries on their 4G pitch.

It's not an exciting list, but it doesn't need to be. (Plus what exciting non-league teams do you want to play?)

The only thing people generally ask is one half decent home friendly, although for obvious reasons that's not always possible.

Normally Premier League teams' friendlies are announced later on, they do their tours of Far East/America first, so we come after that.

According to my local paper East Thurrock are to play Dagenham and Redbridge on Wed 22nd July.
Could well be a Daggers XI and possibly just a Daggers XI at Billericay.

A half decent day at the coast wouldn't be sniffed at (Herne Bay, Dover, Margate)

by its all good
We actually played our U18 team in similar games pre season for the campaign just finished including against Welling & St Albans for example
The opposition were expecting the first team in at least some of the games so the plan may be the same for the games mentioned earlier in the thread

Dover is the only pre-season away I've ever done, I wouldn't recommend.
