allyolly Posted April 14, 2016 Report Share Posted April 14, 2016 Anyone heard anything about whether there will be a pre season tour? Would be great if something was sorted to include a game over a weekend so tat as many fans as possible could turn out. Preferred destinations anyone?

Ground is a 10 minute walk from the train station, nice little evening out for anyone coming from Bristol. Plenty of pubs too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For me, the chance to build a network with a Dutch club would be excellent - See Kodjia plucked out of Ligue 2; lets know our continental neighbours and tap in to what they may know. The wider our commercial network, the wider 'opinion canvassing', the chance to build a relationship of well take your kids for a year you take ours, makes it worthwhile. Perhaps we can find a better club, but Willem II have shown willing, it would be pleasing for the 'super fans', and it is pretty simple to arrange. What's to lose? If we could link up with Bordeuax i might rather go there than Willem... But doesn't make Willem a poor choice necessarily. If it doesn't work, it's a small price and inexpensive experiment. Much less than Botswana. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Versus questionable friendlies abroad attended by less than a 100 City fans. Those who attend tours are a tiny minority. A simple means of enlarging that minority significantly would be a trip to Tilburg. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Carey 6 Posted April 15, 2016 Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 Portugal was class. Wouldn't mind going there again. Although the club will probably end up going to Botswana again. Wish City would announce it further in advance so people could book holiday with their work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Didn't we get promoted on the back of the Botswana pre season, with what appeared to be one of the most unified squads any of us can recall? Seem to remember the YouTube videos told a really positive story as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cowshed Posted April 15, 2016 Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 "Wish City would announce it further in advance so people could book holiday with their work." Exactly. The support levels are modest (!!!). If City want more fans to attend more thought for supporters is required. Its already too late to maximise support this year due to the amount of City fans heading to France for Euro 2016. A tour to the Netherlands / Belgium - Willem II / Antwerp, or others would be great with thought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think the location of pre season training camps matter as much as a lot of people seem to believe. Good recruitment however (like we had in that summer) does.

Malaggro is back Posted April 15, 2016 Report Share Posted April 15, 2016 Willem II No contest. Good side and a brilliant trip to a fun and friendly place. All this talk from some on here of 'superfans' - get a life. Nobody is claiming to be a 'superfan' but there are hundreds who can vouch for the fun they've had and the friends they have made with a cracking bunch of Dutch people.
