The Slater family will be joining us at Leamington FC when we host Keatons beloved Coventry City…a fitting way for the football family to come together to remember Keaton, who was sadly taken way too soon.
Louise, Clint & the boys will lead the players onto the pitch before holding a minutes silence in Keatons memory.

Please come join us and show your support to the Slater family and the wider football family.
RIP KEATON SLATER #Keaton12 #LeamingtonFC #CoventryCity #FootbalFamily

Yeah I only saw it first thing this morning. Dont think there's anything official on it from CCFC's side yet.

 

[SeaSeeEffCee]

Lose this and King will have to consider Robins position. Big game against our fierce local rivals.

Announced on official 10th June

Thanks. We always go to this and Nuneaton every pre-season. I'm surprised my lad didn't hassle me about going to this. Got tickets OK this morning. It was 2nd July last year. Just the kids, loads of triallists.

I suppose we will get more of an indication of what sort of role Rapha will be playing this season here.

If he isn't involved in this, then you'd have to think he is firmly in the first team squad. Same with Dausch

Would imagine Dausch will play Rapha won't

Robins said in an interview with Turner that rodrigues is first team squad straight away

He was very complementary about him saying his in his first team plans and he can be what he wants. He must have seen something in training that he likes which is exciting

Wonder which one of our youngsters they'll crock this year?

 

[Potbellypig]

Do we think we'll see any first teamers or fringe players for this? Might not even send the likes of Andrews, Dausch, Obikwu etc if they are on the plane to Spain a day or 2 later.

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

Be U21's. We've actually got a lot of development players now - the ones still here from last season, plus the signings adn we took on pretty much the whole of last year's second year scholars.

 

[Balli001]

According to turner's latest article we are playing a behind closed doors game this weekend. Wonder who that is against

 

[stevefloyd]

He probably read it on a forum or something

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Who we expecting to play

 

[Sbarcher]

Great to see the thread title again. Nearly there!

 

[Monty]

Expecting loans today but guess looking at something like
GK. Tyler or Bell
RB Sandiford
CB Di Trollio and Ryan
LB Broad
Midfield Andrews Moore and Yearn
FW Obikwu if he's not off with first team

Yeah will be interesting. Think you're close. Can't think who else there is unless a few come up from 18s.

 

[Potbellypig]

Heading over to watch this afternoon. I guess it's going to be U21s with some U18s and trialists, but oh well, something to do. £12.50 for an adult is ridiculous though.

I guess it really isn't to a non league outfit, leisure time activity costs these days,no matter the sphere they operate!

Yeh. Could have been £15.

[fatso]

The last time England won a major tournament, City got promoted to the top flight.




...... just saying.

 

[Winny the Bish]

Turner saying we played a 4-3-3 with two 8s

Don't know how much you can read into those teams but Wilson starting with the 'first team' and Collins starting with the 'reserves' is interesting. Also might suggest that Kai Andrews has impressed, but equally could just be that Robins wanted to try out that midfield 3 second half.

He’s scoring with the first team!

 

[Monty]

Be interested in who plays against Leamington upfront now with Obikwu and Dausch both with the first team.

Put the 3 copa Americas back in and 2-3 signings and it looks set

 

[procdoc]

Howley must have played centre half with Kitching then

Looks like first choice defence and forward line (in absence of Wright, Lati and Palmer) and Andrews alongside experience of Sheaf and Allen. And then solid midfield in second half to support a weaker defence

Big pre season for Justin. A real chance to make a statement.
