Re: list of pre-season games please
So we are hitting Africa, Europe and Asia in our pre-season? Nothing better than starting a season with half the team jet-lagged and/or coming down with Maleria, huh? But still, once we sell a few extra Nike jerseys, all is good!

Re: list of pre-season games please
This has concerned me for a while, we're clocking up serious miles just a few weeks before the start of the season. Spells disaster for me. I also thought they said they were gonna do these far east tours in WC/Euro years? Still, money talks I guess...DB10GOONER wrote:So we are hitting Africa, Europe and Asia in our pre-season?

Those Inuits really have a lot of respect for the Arsenal brand. Gazidis says they know even more about the club than us in London!Chips and Chocolate wrote:Can't wait for Greenland next year, or Madagascar!!!

Re: list of pre-season games please
Saturday August 4th, away at Chesham.
I wonder if RVP will get a run out?
PREMIER League giants Arsenal will visit Chesham United for a pre-season friendly, the Generals have confirmed.
The Arsenal team is likely to be made up of youngsters, but their visit to The Meadow is likely to give Chesham a big cash boost from a bumper crowd.
The match will take place on Saturday August 4 and season ticket holders will be able to get in for free.

Re: list of pre-season games please
No home games then? Usually every club plays at least 1 home pre-season friendly and with the Emirates Cup getting cancelled they should have arranged one by now
