In the period before League football the concept of a pre-season friendly was kind of meaningless, since most of the season was made up of friendlies. Therefore clubs got into shape for the forthcoming season with a mixture of inter-club warm-ups and four-a-side tournaments, they were in essence a perfect way to allow everyone in the squad to have a run out before the season began.
