    I think last seasons pre-season games/defeats said everything about the coming season.
    Last pre-season was a disaster not helped buy Collins not playing many first teamer's and wondered why the players struggled with fitness when the season kicked off.
    And of course playing Kilgallon who later Collins said wouldn't feature in a Bradford City team and was more than happy to let go.

    Add in the Liverpool game and that's far more like a professional football clubs pre-season schedule, I'm liking Gary Bowyer's style.

    Well Blackpool's pre-season fixtures, under Gary Bowyer, have been mostly away matches against teams from the North West, including Southport, Salford City, Radcliffe Borough, Chorley, Macclesfield Town, Crewe Alexandra, Port Vale and Nantwich Town.

    So, expect a host of away matches against Yorkshire teams one or two divisions below us.

    If one of the top PL clubs came for a friendly (and they wont anyway) the team they would bring would be 18 - 20 yr olds who they would be looking to send out on loan when the season started. no chance of any of the "big names" playing.
