    We were selected to play against an MLS all stars team in July, however due to our likely involvement in Europe this seems in doubt.

    Were we to qualify for the Europa League in 6th, we would be started in mid August, so a long Pre season may not be the best plans. If we qualified for the champions league, I'm sure they start at the end of August.

    We may go over for the one game but it seems pointless.

    Good to see we are being recognised over there and are clearly wanted back.

    If we finish 5th or 6th or first game would be on 23rd August, if we finished 4th the first game would be 22nd August. Can't see going to America being a problem.

    For one game? It would cost more than your season ticket for starters.

    Bit hard for the supporters to go over although I do know one who went last time. Not seen him at all this season, maybe he's broke and can't afford his ST now. He used to go to all the away games too.

    You've been and seen this first hand have you?

    I've been several times and alway's found the Americans polite and friendly regardless of their figures. Some of which were very nice and nothing like you describe.

    Can't remember what he looks like, followed him thinking he was someone off here but turned out to be a fair few years older. Think Leazes knows him, thats what made me think it was him.

    Don't think Arnie would like you getting his name wrong.
