It May beThink soccer aid will be a closer March than this
I’m thinking of it similar to how Italy and Argentina were invited to play in the 6 Nations and the Rugby Championship. Initially, they got twatted by everyone and it was questioned ‘what’s the point?’… but decades down the line, they’re competitive.I get the whole "spreading the football message" thing; honestly, I do. But what will either team get from this? Is this going to make Australia's more intelligent neighbours ditch the egg chasing, and take up God's own sport?
The money teams like Auckland can get from this will at least enhance them a bit. Not saying they’ll ever be competitive, mind. Moreso the South American clubs though. This is the sort of thing that could finally give them a leg up to be competitive in this tournament in decades to come.

I thought that was the case, but the rest of New Zealand are spreading the money between them and Auckland have barely covered their costs! But they'll take it home and still be the richest in their league.I’m thinking of it similar to how Italy and Argentina were invited to play in the 6 Nations and the Rugby Championship.

With a Florian Wirtz sized transfer budget for the winner. Think it will start to feel quite serious when we get to the quarter finals.It’s a glorified pre season tournament.

Just hoping for pure shithousery in that one, something to make it feel like the tournament has properly started.

Serious question, not wumming; would it, actually? Arguably the two most iconic moments in our 17 year history have been nsil biting, brown trousers games. The biggest win I've actually seen in person was the 8-0 against Watford, and I mentally clocked out after the fifth. The sense of jeopardy is what keeps me on the edge of my seat.I mean City to win 10-0 every game would be great
Not always good for the ticker, though!

Not a good start for FIFA in terms of generating interest which they desperately need by all accounts, a dross 0-0 and a 10-0 non-contest
As a counterpoint you most definitely enjoyed the 4-0 against madrid or the 3-0 against Bayern.Serious question, not wumming; would it, actually?

I'd love to pump a load of the teams there show we are a danger for the new season.
