Just received confirmation from Steve Hamer that we will not be playing at Sabadell in July.
It is hoped to arrange an alternative European fixture between 17th and 21st July and announce this shorty.

Wouldn't it make more sense for Sabadell to come here first before a return anyway?

So we have called off a game that was never officially "on" ?

If, like me, any Gashead took a punt on booking cheap flights to Barcelona between 17th and 21st July, I suggest that you do NOT cancel those bookings at the moment as we may (IMO) be playing a team near Barcelona and even if it is further afield, EasyJet allow you to change a booking for a £30 fee, up to 60 days before the date of a booking.

Look on the bright side, perhaps Wael can arrange for us to play Barcelona's A team at the Camp Nou.

I had expected Sabadell to come to Bristol this year? I was hoping we could assess our improvement from last year's pre-season by seeing if we could actually touch the ball this year.
The beers may have clouded my judgement but I remember the game being very one sided, which surprised me seeing as Sabadell were less advanced in their pre-season schedule than us at the time.
A very good work out for the players though!

Any chance to a small diversion to here in France and arrange a friendly against the nearest big team St Etienne or just my local team Ambert will do.

To be honest I'd prefer a trip to France/Germany/Netherlands than to Sabadell, the Rovers link is already there with them

I went there in March 2013, a fabulous country and EasyJet flew there daily from Gatwick at 50% of the fares for BA and Royal Jordanian.

Especially if they can watch live games next season.

A pre-season game in Jordan would be brilliant, not sure how many Gasheads would make the trip though, probably the safest country in the Middle East currently
