"AS Roma, the friendly programme: 3 August against Olympiacos, 6 August against Coventry City and 10 August against Everton. All matches at 5pm (RELEASE RELEASES)"
At St George's Park, behind closed doors.
Bit annoying but probably don't want 3 home friendlies in a week both win terms of getting people to turn up and not fucking the pitch up before the season startsAt St George's Park, behind closed doors.
Interesting having so many friendlies behind closed doors, wonder why?
Is there actually any facilities at St Georges for spectators, even if its just a few hundred?
Keep Craig danny away, although I wouldn't mind at all if the Roma ultras got hold of himIt's the only way to keep the mad hatters away.
First game back in the Championship away at Bristol City was much worse. Although arguably excused by Covid as we hadn’t played in months.We're planning a far better pre-season than the debacle we had last year. Hopefully we'll be match fit for the first game and won't run out of steam after 60 minutes like we did away at Leicester.
Behind closed doors game against good opposition with plenty of chance to balance legs and get fitness under belts.I don't understand this?
Why have a game 4 days before the start of the season? What if someone gets a knock?
Surely you give the players a solid 7 days with no game before the season starts?
What's your cut off, no games a week before the season, two weeks before, a month before?I don't understand this?

Just read thread properly.....ignore me...I've had a drinkCould sell loads for this.....why BCD?
Because usually we whinge that we go into seasons cold and start poor.If you look at all sides in the Premier League and Championship pre season schedule (and has always been the way with ours) they leave a clear week between their last pre season game and first game of the league season
Curious as to why we think we need to
Be different with a a full squadNot sure if this is MR’s way of trying to get the team ready to play every 3-4 days.
It looks like we've learnt a lesson from last year, we are set up to be way more professional in our preparation, which I think is very encouraging.First game back in the Championship away at Bristol City was much worse. Although arguably excused by Covid as we hadn’t played in months.
However I thought we were the better team for the first three quarters of the game, then ran on empty for the last 20+ mins.
A lot of clubs use it to be fair. The facilities are world class.We've used St George's quite a bit for rehabilitating players. Not a bad relationship to keep sweet
Yes they are coming over playing everton the saturday afterWonder if this is Roma first team with the game being so close to the start of our season?
