May be fun in a few years when City, NYCFC, Bahia and maybe a couple more CFG teams qualify…..

Will not happen. They already dumped one side from this years competition due to ownership rules. They’re having a play off for the free spot on Saturday.

Still will be fun as FIFA try and stifle growth, investment, security, support and development …. Money going to places it isn’t in, hasn’t been in, not giving opportunities everywhere…..
 
Anyone have an existing trophy importance equivalent to the CWC? Conference League? FA Cup? Not too sure how to treat it.
 
Just thinking about the logistics behind taking the club over to USA for this tournament. It’s been hard enough as a fan planning an itinerary, securing accommodation and planning how to get to each. Somebody from City would have had to travel to the US and do a recce of places suitable to host the club and secure training facilities too. Not just in one place either, in all the places we could end up in either as winners of the group or as runners up. Then there’s the travel arrangements etc. There’s likely a whole department at the club working full time doing all this. Sounds like a brilliant job and very much one of those ‘unsung hero’ jobs at the club.

Club secretary would usually be responsible for organising team travel
 
Channel 5 are showing I think 23 games does anyone know if any of are group games on that channel or when they will be announced?
 
$1b prize money apparently. No wonder we’re seeing Madrid pay £10m to get Trent in early, or us rushing through deals to make sure they’re in before it starts.

A tenth of that, according to most reports.
