Turriff and Fraserburgh in the same week then only a 2 week rest til we play Charlton. The poor wee lambs will be knackered. 

Plus all that travel to Fraserburgh and Turriff for Hayes at his age can't be a good thing.

I’d say 3 games would leave them undercooked. 
There will be another game added, I’m pretty sure. 

[Tord31]

Suspect they'll add another 2-3 games.

They'll find a club out in Algarve at the same time for the Portugal week and they'll fill the 14 day gap when europe and LC Group fixtures all become clear

Aye, we should ask them to cancel their pre-season tour of Singapore & the tournament they’re playing in. 
I’m sure they’ll be ok with it.

We've still got the annual behind closed doors friendly against St Johnstone to announce. 

Time between the Fraserburgh and Charlton games for a glamour stateside friendly against the Atlanta Under 12 team as well.

If it’s a premiership club I’d guess Dundee unless there’s another with a deluded gaffer who thinks we forgive and forget up our way.

edit:  my bad, I said premiership clubs.

Millwall on the Wednesday before Charlton would've been good. 

Team use the Spurs training ground whilst down here.

Usually the algarve cup played round that time. Doubt we are invited. Farnese back in the Liga also portimonense also should see arrange a fixture with one of these teams no doubt would get a good crowd of fans heading to it especially in the summer holidays

Apparently Alan Burrows hinted at a “glamour friendly” on the 22nd July at one of the recent Edinburgh or Glasgow DNA events

A trip to Charlton hopefully for me, just 40 minutes on the train to London.
