http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/fo...verseas-friendlies-Champions-League-void.html What a brilliant idea to raise extra cash. Why did we not think of this....oh wait a minute, we are busy mid week aren't we.
On a more serious note the suggestion is games in the Middle East. The Utd players will be more knackered than playing in a competitive match with all that travelling. It will wipe out any advantage they have in the Prem with not having Europe. Suppose the Galziers do not want to see their investments sitting about and recharging their batteries, when they could be out getting injured in meaningless friendlies.
desperate for funds.... sad to see. be out of business if they fail this season... where'd it all go wrong
Shut it ginger. Havent you got some flag to be making to fly from a plane. Perhaps ye could fly one over Cantona's house. Come home Ronaldo
Can't see that their income is so massive they would have to be out of the CL for 10 yrs before people would stop buying Utd shirts abroad. Saw a picture of a Kurd fighter wearing one the other day, talk about making yourself a target.
When they say lucrative friendlies who do they mean? No CL or EL teams will be available. I doubt it will be PL teams. Lower league teams and lower top flight foreign teams will fill a stadium.
Well we are playing ac milan. That arranged ages ago though. Other than that? Maybe some of clubs who take a winter break.
yeah i can see some villa fans on the other side from brummieland out to chop heads off there...........
United. Always the trend setters. Everton, liverpool, arsenal and chelsea have all followed our lead of dropping that pesky defence.
Liverpool's marketing people should pay the United marketing team a commission when they inevitably copy the idea next season.
You copied our idea of dropping out of Europe to have a better shot at qualifying for Europe! I think you owe us commission!
