I'd expect us to not be at full strength for the Horne testimonial either, think it will be a split between 1st team and youth to give the young lads a run out as well as blooding our new signings in a derby.

The only game i can see the 1st team playing at full strength would eb the warm up against Bradford the week prior to the season proper.
