One day after the end of the domestic season, Manchester United have landed in Malaysia for the beginning of a tour of the Far East. Presumably Ratcliffe's people have received assurances it will be a guaranteed spinner. Still plenty of people in that part of the World willing to spend their cash on a team that finished 15th in the Prem and won nothing. Otherwise the tour would surely have been cancelled in order to save money.
Well played AFC Wimbledon A proper team with a great gaffer and terrific fans. No disrespect to Walsall...
Reports that United have not sold out the stadiums for their two games in Malaysia https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/cx2qd53v479o The price of failure...
The latest from Malaysia... Asean All-Stars 1-0 Manchester United Next up United face the Kuala Lumpur Under 11's (who can only field nine players, as it's an evening kick-off and the rest of the squad are past their bed-times) Expect a close game...
Shout out for junior who represented Kuala Lumpur University at a frisbee tournament in China 9 years ago .
I thought Chelsea had qualified for a Champion's League place by finishing 4th in the Prem this season. Apparently they gain nothing more by winning the Conference League, except the trophy. Liverpool (the only actual Champions) Arsenal Man City Chelsea Newcastle United Tottenham Hotspur All except Spurs get Champion's League for finishing in the Prem top 5. Spurs got their place by winning the Europa League. In theory Newcastle qualified for the Europa League by winning the Carabao Cup - but they don't get that place as they are already in the CL. I don't know who gets through to which stage of the CL. My brain hurts when I try to think about it and I don't care much really. Aston Villa Crystal Palace got Europa league places (Palace by winning the FA Cup) Nottingham Forest got the only English place in the Conference League.
Just one more game left to play this season I think... The National League (5th tier) Play-off Final: Sunday 1st June at Wembley Southend Utd v Oldham Wembley Park tube station is closed that day.
Man Utd's tour of the Far East continues smoothly... https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/clyzdle1x13o
I see Trent Alexander-Arnold move to Real Madrid has been confirmed. The early release fee is 10m euros (£8.4m). Wouldn’t it be a nice touch for Liverpool to donate it to local charities in response to the cities recent trauma on their celebration day?
