Bristol Rob Posted April 30 Report Share Posted April 30 Any idea what Manning has done pre-season at his previous clubs, overseas training; mini tour; home games, painting a school in Botswana? - all that sort of thing. Just wondering if he had any form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henry Posted April 30 Report Share Posted April 30 I never know why they haven’t gone to Botswana again. Several players from that season credited that trip. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harry Posted April 30 Report Share Posted April 30 He seems like the kind of bloke who will visit a steam railway, stop for a weak lemon drink at the station cafe, drive home in his mini metro and finish the day with a spot of ironing (socks). Don’t get too excited. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just wondering if he had any form. MK Dons - 6 day training camp behind closed doors in Dublin. Away friendlies only as Stadium:MK was in use. Played 4 friendlies, 3 non league sides and Norwich U23. Oxford - 7 day training camp behind closed doors in Spain. Friendlies against Southampton U23 (allegedly made an impact), us, Swansea, QPR and Eastleigh (2 behind closed doors, away at Eastleigh, home to QPR and Swansea). Got chatted up by an illiterate Geordie. So, I’d guess at a behind closed doors camp, about 4 games and lots of processes.

I know a sea faring bird from the Weston area who was keen to watch all the pre season games. Can’t get enough apparently 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They've already painted the school. Although, by now, it might need a fresh lick of paint. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
