dark Posted June 11, 2009 Report Share Posted June 11, 2009 Everton Pre-Season 2009 10th July: Bury 12th July: Asante Kotoko Cancelled 18th July: Rochdale 26th July: River Plate 30th July: Major League Soccer All-Stars 2nd August: Coventry City 4th August: Blackpool 7th August: Malaga With Everton officially announcing that they will play River Plate pre-season I thought that we should have a thread to discuss these matchday games. Our team could be made up of players that we have now, or we could see some new faces. The game against the Argentinians is one that will prove a healthy challange and Phil Neville is already looking foreward to the event. Let's hope we can have a good pre-season Phil says: "Everyone who knows football knows about River Plate," he said. "I am really looking forward to the match and it will, of course, be a very tough test for us at that stage of our pre-season preparation. Any games between English and Argentinean teams will be good ones and although this is a friendly for both of us, I'm sure it will be keenly contested." Ghana Off Everton's proposed 2009/10 pre-season trip to Ghana will now not take place. The Club had been invited to travel to the West African territory for the first time to play in an exhibition game against Asante Kotoko on Sunday, 12 July. However, the Club has been informed that opposition would not now be available after the Ghana FA scheduled a domestic cup competition that clashed with the confirmed date. This means that Asante Kotoko will not be available to play in the game at the Baba Yara Stadium in Kumasi. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kurt321 Posted June 12, 2009 Report Share Posted June 12, 2009 (edited) Everton should come to Australia and play Melbourne Victory in a friendly. Never seen Everton play and flying to England isn't an option right now. Also i would love to see Australia play England in a friendly. Any1 agree?

dutchguy Posted June 13, 2009 Report Share Posted June 13, 2009 River plate, one of the most beautiful jersey's in the world.. It would be great if Everton comes to Holland to play a couple of games, would be the first time i see them play irl. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heather_6 Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 Were playing Rochdale as well arnt we. We should bring a glamorous club to Goodison like Roma or Valencia(pushing it a bit ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rubecula Posted June 18, 2009 Report Share Posted June 18, 2009 If we were to bring a foreign club to Goodison I would vote for Bayern Munich. I was at THAT game and it was fantastic. It would be nice to do it again, even in a friendly. Other foreign teams that would be good to see at Goodison..... Boca Juniors Barca Inter Milan. Just a few names from my own ideas. I am sure some of them would be pleased to warm up against us for European football. It would do us good too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dark Posted June 20, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 20, 2009 Asante Kotoko is the biggest and most successful football (soccer) club in Ghana as well as being one of the more successful sides in Africa, having won twenty one national league titles. They have also twice been champions of Africa. The club's home ground is the 51,500 all-seater Kumasi Sports Stadium. The full name of the club is Nsuhia Kumasi Asante Kotoko. The next game that Everton will play is against Asante Kotoko, a team from Ghana. I don't know about tickets for this game but they should be up on the official site soon. It will be good to see how the team copes with the heat and gets a result against these champions. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure if the climate is similar to South Africa's but if it is then heat won't be a problem. Its actually very clemment this time of year in South Africa. In fact this time last year it snowed in Johanesburg. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Beard Posted June 20, 2009 Report Share Posted June 20, 2009 A few lads from this end have already booked flights to Ghana, some via USA (cheaper for some reason), even had their jabs done. Hotels have also been booked for as little as £15 a night, a nice little jaunt. :party: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowensda Posted June 23, 2009 Report Share Posted June 23, 2009 All are actually pretty hard games...and to play the all-stars, 3 days after River...will be very tough. I read when the fixture was announced, no English team have ever beaten the MLS All-star team, even United. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dark Posted June 24, 2009 Author Report Share Posted June 24, 2009 I remember this game well, from the time that Coventry were in the Premiership. I think that Craig Bellemy was on their books then before moving onto West Ham United, here is shows how the game was won and how Coventry's goal was a penalty from Lee Carsley That season, Everton won 3-1 at their old Highfield Road home, with Scott Gemmill, Danny Cadamarteri and Kevin Campbell on the scoresheet. Coventry's reply was a penalty from a certain Lee Carsley. The game is going to be the testimonial of veteran Marcus Hall. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
