Pre-season fixtures

[RossP]

Any word on where the team are playing in the summer? 

With the League Cup fixtures taking place between July 16 and 30, I'd imagine there'll be a few games between the end of June and the opening LC game.

[ICTPaisley]

I think we had at least one friendly lined up with a HL side, can't remember who though.

Away to Fraserburgh for a testimonial, Sat 2nd July.

Well why the hell not, it's only a friendly and you've got more experience than the 7 year old who applied.

Any further update on fixtures? Competitive football starts again in 4-5 weeks... 

[12th Man]

Probably after the English fixtures are announced and TV rights are sorted.

[ictbob]

Fixtures are out on Friday.

[Sir C the 3rd]

Apparently we have a game v Nairn on the 7th of July

[Renegade]

So far then that's -

Saturday 2nd July - Fraserburgh (away)

Thursday 7th July - Nairn County (away)

Saturday 9th July - Buckie Thistle (away)

Hoping to get confirmation on these (and any others) today or tomorrow.

Maybe one more midweek friendly before the League Cup kicks off? Not sure we'd be looking to play friendlies in June but I could be totally wrong especially given I have no 'evidence' to support that notion!

[+CaleyD]

4 pre-season matches confirmed so far.

Possibility of another on the 12th July....will advise as soon as there's any more info.

Looks like I'll definitely make the Fraserburgh game. Will investigate train for Nairn and bus for Buckie games.

School holidays ftw!

Gutted there is no Forres this pre-season, I've enjoyed my recent midweek trips to Mosset Park

[+CaleyD]

I believe Forres may have had, or are due to have, some work done on their pitch which meant it wasn't going to be ready in time for us to fit a friendly in with them.

[Renegade]

Maybe just as well.  The last few times we've played Forres I've wondered why bother.  We were lucky to come away unscathed, considering what a dirty side they were, especially given it was only a friendly.

[Downinthedumps]

No Clach either must be first time we have not played them pre season

Was it the Forres or Nairn game that Jordan Roberts got crocked in at the start of last season?

[JodieC95]

We need clach it's tradition 

[+CaleyD]

Elgin added on 12th July - Borough Briggs - 1945hrs kick off.

[+CaleyD]

....and another one : Friendly match away to Forres on 19th July with a 1930hrs kick off. http://ictfc.com/info/matches/fixture-list

[WYNESS101]
