If they weren’t owned by the mags, no one would turn a blind eye. Good move for me, keeps the lads sharp and ready to go for millwall.
exactly this. even ignoring whether anybody should care or not who we play, its just a stupidly easily avoidable PR own goal, that makes me question the sanity of the people running our club. Which is silly, right. Because they're doing a good job otherwise. So clearly they know what they're doing. So why the f*** do this?
Or, you've got 2 billion burning a hole in your pocket and you fancy taking your club to dubai to escape the North East weather. You shop about for a team to play and non are forthcoming other than the camel riders...
That's probably the case. at which point they probably should have just not had a friendly. or at the very least, not announced it publicly like this. We seem to manage to have behind closed doors friendlies quite often. The decision to "announce" this one is probably weirder than the decision to have it in the first place.
Its the time of year Now that Spring is in the air When those two wet gits with their girly curly hair Make another song for moronic holidays That nauseate-ate-ate In a million different ways From the shores of Spain To the coast of Southern France No matter where you hide You just can't escape this dance Hold a chicken in the air Stick a deckchair up your nose Buy a jumbo jet And then bury all your clothes Paint your left knee green Then extract your wisdom teeth Form a string quartet And pretend your name is Keith Skin yourself alive Learn to speak Arapahoe Climb inside a dog And behead an eskimo Eat a Renault Four with salami in your ears Casserole your gran Disembowel yourself with spears The disco is vibrating The sound is loud and grating Its truly nauseating Let's do the dance again Hold a chicken in the air Stick a deckchair up your nose Yes you'll hear this song in the holiday discos And there's no escape in the clubs or in the bars You would hear this song if you holidayed in Mars Skin yourself alive Learn to speak Arapahoe Climb inside a dog And behead an eskimo Now you've heard it once Your brain will spring a leak And though you hate this song You'll be humming it for weeks Hold a chicken in the air Stick a deckchair up your nose Buy a jumbo jet And then bury all your clothes La la la la la La la la la la la la La la la la la La la la la la la laaaaaaa
Needless this one....best to have kept well away. The whole world cup in Qatar to me is football losing it's sole. Think we should have camped out in Hartlepool for the week instead. Nothing like the wind off the North Sea to keep you grounded.....
Poor Stewart, being from Scotland this is the only chance he'll have to play football in Qatar this year. Dont be nasty
Agree with this, I personally think the reaction to the regime buying the mags has heightened our moral outrage with playing a Saudi team. I mean China has as bad a human rights record, allegedly, would we have this if we were playing peking United or Shanghai rovers? Any break and practice for our crocks is worth it imho.
