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.
Its just a friendly, we arnt going to be married like our neighbours.
Just a ****e decision for me. No need for it.
£10, all proceeds to PIFAnyone know if this is going to be streamed? Should be a good test in that heat.
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...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?

Agree, don't know what they were thinking.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.
I was bothered about it before the mags were owned by them, and I am now so what do you say to that?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.

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.....
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.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.
