“Sorry, no Kentucky Gunner preview for this one. Sure it’s just a pre-season match, and the first one at that, but you’re getting excited aren’t you? The World Cup was fun, but now we are really getting to the business. From now until May 2003 we are in store for around 60 games.

Pretty soon we can look forward to more game previews from scout extraordinaire, The Kentucky Gunner; match reports from Kali Korbis and plenty of thoughts from the EINY. Other features such as Schadenfreude of the Week, the Unmitigated Crap Index, Brass Monkey and Iron...
