Birmingham and Wolves friendlies already confirmed. They will bring plenty of fans.
And a European Cup Winning Team coming for a friendly on July 21st?
That's going to either be a team using St Georges for pre season or I'm going to hazard a guess at FC Hamburg as I know Forest are trying to get them over this summer for their 150th anniversary

I saw Derby beat Benfica in 1972 at the Baseball Ground. Eusebio played for them then, he was probably one of the best players in the world then. Can anyone name the three Brewers connections on that day?

At a guess Peter Taylor, Kevin Hector and weren't they managed by Nigel Clough's dad?

Is it really Benfica?
When I first read about a European Cup winning team coming here the first two that sprung to mind were Villa and Forest!

I get to as many games as I can.

Since joining the Football League we normally play a Conference team as our last warm up game. I assume that there may be a League 2 team being propped for this season now?
