Sheffield United Pre-Season Friendly Fixtures 2014/2015

[Jim Chimmerney]

Unconfirmed

Blackpool Away towards the end of July is a strong possibility.

They're apparently signing a striker and goal keeping coach today so that's 8/9 players they've got at a push.

On holiday for the Fenerbahçe match. A bit cross about this, but hey ho, I'll be busy feeding the midges in Scotland.

I'm slacking, thought having been there last year, we'd not have another one, not complaining mind!

 

[Treeton Blade]

New one for you all - Dundee at the Lane, Fri July 25th - 19:00 kick off.

 

[Foxy]

Added Dundee ticket prices

All these friendlies, 1st team, U21s, U18s, Foyle Cup, Milk Cup and Dennis Law are going to end up costing me a fortune in programmes

Indeed

Need any picking up? or are you going to them all?

 

[Sharrowblade]

Thanks for the offer Foxy, just about got them covered hopefully.

If you're going tonight, could you get a me a couple of programmes with a couple of teamsheets if poss. (Don't bend them tho).

I will be there but not until after kick-off due to the little un training tonight, and given Club's reluctance to print that many programmes I may well be struggling to get hold off a couple as a late arrival.

Regards Sharrowblade

Will see what I can do, they'll be fine folded into 6ths and just the teams marking on though right?

Drop me a pm with your number, just in case I haven't got it in my phone and I'll text you if I've got them.

Bloody hell. I moved to Dundee in 2001 and lived there for about 7 years. For 13 years I've been wanting us to play Dundee or United in a friendly game, but I wanted it to be away! I came close with Raith last season, seems we're getting closer but still no dice.

 

[Foxy]

York City have handily changed kick off time to 13:00 rendering all our non-refundable train tickets useless.

Thanks York City!

Is that the game you missed because you were in a curry house munching and you missed the train?!

 

[cockneyblade]

Stocksbridge P.S Wendy's nursery team? Or,is it the other way around? Plenty of Snorters around Stocksbridge way if I recall.

I hope the SHEFF' UTD XI ( Trialists,young erns & the club groundsman) put a few past Sheff'Wendy B side.

That is correct, old boy.

I miss the pre season jollies playing against the piggies.The weather was always hot,besides,I was young then and could get hammered without much of an hangover!

The 1989 centenary game was very memorable. Not for the game itself which ended 0-0. It sticks in the mind more for the off the field fun & games Which were lively to say the least.No doubt a few of the older blades will remember that day... & night.

The U21 trip to Matlock has been cancelled.

Sure, it's "The Hare & Hounds" 1197 Great Horton Road, BD7 4LT (web link here: http://whatpub.com/pubs/BRA/118/hare-hounds-bradford ).

It's had a complete overhaul since the photos in the link above. In fact, hopefully popping up for some much welcome respite this afternoon (a pub meal and a few real ales with my better half ). There's a spacious car park and it's right on the main A647 road leading out of Bradford. From there it's about a 5-6min drive to Horsfall Stadium. BTW, don't be fooled by the 'Stadium' moniker, prepare to be underwhelmed

Real ales, standard John Smiths & Lagers/Ciders plus a great value bar menu and even seating/tables for full meals, and a vast array of screens with Sky Sports...

Prices are excellent (£2.40 for real ale, £2.70 for lager etc.). I'll be having a chat with the staff a bit before the game, letting em know a fair few Blades may be visiting.

UTB, UTA & FTC!

Not sure what we are doing Saturday yet, but I'm going to be driving and we need to escape sharpish to get back for something else

If we get chance, we may well pop for one before the match though.

No probs, arrangements still on so hope to see you there Looks like a few Blades can join us. Will also be arranging transport (taxis/minibus etc.) to ground (around 2.40pm) for those of you who'd need it. It's a simple 6-7min drive to ground from H&H to Horsfall Stadium...traffic dependant. Car parking available at ground I believe.

All the best & UTA/UTB!
