    Obviously the usual trip to the land of chocolate and cuckoo clocks, but what other games will there be? Our promotion will affect the games organized surely. We need at least one or two good sides to test ourselves against. I'm so excited, I could crush a grape. Blimey, I'm supposed to be at work in 45 min and I'm still in my dressing gown. Bye.

    I think for the Markus Liebherr trophy we'll have Bilbao again, plus either a top Prem or a German side, although Barcelona would be good!

    I think we have friendly with Arsenal, which was agreed when Alex went to them

    I think the French champions Lille would be a good shout. Also fancy Borussia Dortmund or Bayern Munchen.

    Or perhaps a MSL team from the US?

    But would that still go ahead if we're now in the same League?

    We've only done that once haven't we? During the awful Pardew pre-season

    Bilbao are a much bigger draw this year after their European expolits. Be interesting to see if we have anybody in the GB squad, could be a touch distrupting? If we could get Bilbao again it would be great, maybe along with another top German side? Some attacking, ball playing teams is what we need as we're not used to teams trying to pass it round us like City, Utd, Arsenal, Swansea, Everton etc will attempt to do...

    Bilbao are an excellent side. Been following them since they gave manure a lesson.

    Judging by the Tadanari Lee fan club who showed up at St Mary's, maybe a trip to Japan would be a good idea?
