On the Burton website

Coventry City – Tuesday 25 August – 7pm – Pirelli Stadium

 

[Esoterica]

Would make sense - presume they've rearranged opposition given the upcoming Carabao fixture vs MK

 

[dplzll]

Think this is an additional fixture , MK Saturday still on

 

[ccfcricoh]

Yea think this was already arranged before the cup draw

MK Dons are playing Norwich tomorrow now...
Are they really playing 2 games in 2 days?

MK Dons to face Norwich in practice match

MK Dons will face Norwich City later today, in their latest pre-season practice match.

They don't list our game in their upcoming fixtures either...

They probably are playing 2 games in 2 days, Wolves U23's played 2 games in 1 day (us & Walsall)

The game is going ahead
Possible both sides will start with mainly fringe players

Fringe players for us? Seems a weird decision seeing as we're 3 weeks out from the season start and we've not played much.

We're probably as likely to play our fringe players in the actual cup game going by previous seasons.

Think we have a few knocks

Is this being played at a training ground like the Wolves game? Seems to be no sign of any stream and both teams would be setup for ifollow. Surely you'd bang it on for a tenner and make a few quid.

Don't know
Seems to be quite low key like the Wolves game

Why are all our friendlies such a mystery, it’s not like thousands of fans would turn up to watch a boring friendly?

I think that'd only be because we play them first competitive match so don't want to make their scouting easier.

Reckon we're far more likely to use the competitive game to test out the first choice XI ahead of the new season.

@better days can I put you on the spot. Where's Dacosta? Have you heard any snippets?

Injured I believe
Don't know the extent of it

I really wonder why they are hiding what the injury is, they’ve not said anything. Wonder how long he will be out for
