Looks to be well thought out, fly out with the players, stay in the same hotel as the players, have a game of golf and a BBQ with the players.

Looks nice, I've already played Campoamor, Its in the La Zenia/Villamartin area where I have stayed a number of times. All very pleasant around there.

That's a ridiculous price for what you get.

Its not really for the average fan.

If it was well thought out it would give fans more than 3 months notice. I'm sure 100s of fans already have their summer holiday sorted.

Still a great idea. And if could have of gone i would have.

Come on! Its much better than what the club normally manage; how far should we be expecting pre season details? Christmas?

I think now is exactly the right time, maybe even sooner than expected, but perhaps that’s just because I’m used to their last minute organisation

Some notice is better than no notice. Not knocking it.

I'm guessing the ball goes miles out of play when any of those three strike it.

It says watch the Sky Blues train. Does that mean you can't catch it on the day of the game?

I wouldn't know what to say to them, never been the sort to be star struck or run up to footballers.

"Alright mate"
"Any damage going down later?"
"Want a pint?
"It's warm isn't it, meant to be roasting later. Have you heard that? "

None of that climbing up their arse we love you nonsense.

Do it too often and Robins will squeak to the hotel management. Also hope it's plastic cutlery at the BBQ as Burge and O'Brien would drop the lot.

I remember when they went to the USA with Micky Adams they got Don Hutchison to write a diary every few days. Maybe 'Doyler' could take that on?

Or just ask them have you ever thought of taking up golf instead of football as they try getting their ball out of the bunker

That's got to be getting on for 20 years ago. Remember they live streamed the game back in the days of dial up internet.

No, that's to watch football or other sports rather than just being around them so it's a bit different.

If you paid to get into VIP in a nightclub because Clarke Harris and Doyle were there it would be the same sort of thing and a bit strange.

And who would now bother going anyway? Shame really as I am/was in awe of people like Regis/Dublin et al, but if I was to see any of the current crop I would probably cross over the road to avoid them. Not their fault really just the way most have became detached/set aside from the ordinany in the street. I’m sure some are very approachable.

You paid to go to the kit launch didn't you? To see the manager and players. The same as going to the leamington meetings with the players and staff?
