Both the first team and the youth development squad (aka the reserve team) have released the details of what they will be up to this summer and where you can go see them play. Yet again you will be able to see the Development squad play local teams, which is good for both us and the teams they play especially playing non-league teams.
The first team will be jetting off to Austria for their pre-season tour, which will hopefully encompass a game against German side Hoffenhiem which will be a good test for the lads ahead of the new season. As of yet, no home pre-season fixture has been announced, but I wouldn't hold my breathe on there not being one.
Development Squad Fixtures: AFC Fylde (July 20), Southport (July 28), Bury (July 31), and Stockport (August 3)
First Team Fixtures: Local Austrian team (what the offical site says, to be played July 24), Botev Plovdiv (July 26), Hoffenheim (July 28)
