With Fleetwood Town now back in pre-season training and their first friendly less than a week away, we look at the plan for a busy July.
Uwe Rosler’s side will meet back at Poolfoot Farm on Monday, having already been training for a fitness testing week on the 19th June.
Town’s training ground is the venue for our first fixture, before heading to Austria for a week-long training camp.

Managed by former Everton defender Gary Naysmith, The Doonhamers will travel south to face Rosler’s side, with the game available to the public for free.

Fleetwood Town v Karlsruher SC: Tuesday 11th July, 4pm (local time) @ SV Kopfgarten
In a first of two games in Austria, Town’s travelling party will face the German side who last season were relegated to the third tier in Germany.

Fleetwood Town v FK Jablonec: Saturday 15th July, 6pm (local time) @ FC Kossen
A top division side from Czech Republic, Town will end their pre-season tour of Austria with a tough match at their base in Kossen.
