Anyone booked any flights for this yet or do you think the club will put anything on. I doubt there be enough interest for the club to do anything
I emailed Sportsworld to enquire what they were doing and received a proper wishywashy answer:

Thank you for contacting us in regard to the Club World Cup.

We will be communicating with the club and looking at available options for this event in the coming weeks.

Please feel free to enquire or keep an eye on our website for any future communications with this event.

Kind Regards,

I think anything the club put on will be disproportionately expensive compared to what is already available anyway. I've paid about £420 return get in to Jeddah Monday back in to manchester Xmas eve

I’m hoping to try and get an “in out” flight for the game on the Friday regardless of whether it’s the final or 3rd/4th place play off. Can’t afford to take that much time off work.

Fair enough mate, hopefully they put something on for people in a similar situation. Long day trip that though haha

That is very cheap. Direct flights with Saudi are 3 times that.

Saudi and back in a day. Jesus.

I used to tell my first missus that anything south of Crewe was an overnight job.

Probably one of the reasons why she’s an ex missus I expect.
 
I appreciate it’s another trophy. A trophy City haven’t won yet. But it’s a load of bollocks. Even more so now the Saudis have been invited to take part via a money no object wildcard. Saying that, if I could get the time off work, and if I had the money, I’d probably go, just to say I went, and to see Jeddah.

The host country has had an entrant take part for many years now. They've just not previously had the likes of Benzema, Kante, etc.

Not really a wildcard they qualify as hosts exactly the same way it works in the World Cup.

By 2025 when the tournament is expanded, the prize money will surpass the Champions League.

It will matter everywhere in 2 years time. At the moment it matters less in Europe than the rest of the World but the teams still want to win it. The standard can’t compare to the CL right now but that might change in two years time with 32 teams in it including many teams from Europe.
