Surprised we've gone for so many abroad what with a couple of European trips by the end of August as well.

 

The days when travel to Europe was an expedition are long past. Many European airports are as easy to get to as Manchester or Newcastle so I wouldn't think the club feel it matters too much where they go, especially as The Netherlands is so close. I sometimes commute to Paris or Brussels for the day, which at one time would have been unthinkable.

I didn't say it was an expedition. Potentially 6 games in Europe by the end of August is a lot though.

Espanyol as the home game on the 2nd of August.

 

Not a glamourous fixture, but will do the job in terms of pre-season, hopefully really cheap tickets.

 

You'd hope so, especially given none of our first team squad will be playing.
