It replaces the Club World Cup for this year.View attachment 140339
I've just noticed that real madrid are playing in an intercontinental cup ? So if you win the champs you now have to play in the CWC and this cup and of course it's being played in Qatar.
Oh right I thought the club world cup was every year, that makes sense thanksIt replaces the Club World Cup for this year.
The Club World Cup was played between the various Continental Champions every year. Now an expanded version will take place every four years, in 2025 in the USA.
The Intercontinental Cup will take its place as an annual competition between the champions of each Federation,
Real Madrid will win.
Is Kensington as dodgy as everyone makes it out to be?Looking forward to seeing you Blues in my hometown (Philly) it is a great town for visitors.
As a special treat for City support, my Mummers club will be hosting a party for City supporters starting at 7:00 am on the day of the match. Chances are it will be open bar with food for approximately $50. The club is less than 3 miles away from the stadium so it is about an hour walk, a $30 cab or Uber. For those of you unfamiliar with the term Mummers, Google is your friend.
Feel free to DM me if you plan to attend so I can get an idea of beer/spirits preferences and a ballpark idea of food prep.
At 69 year's old, I have been blessed with the opportunity to to witness the wonderfulness of MCFC in my hometown, a city that I love even with its flaws.
I think that you will find Philadelphians quite similar to Mancunians in their temperament and sarcastic wit.
I hope to be able to associate the names I have read thousands of times with faces while watching a City victory.
In a word, yes. When I grew up it was an amazing place, on one little block there were 7 football clubs, clubhouses. It was the soccer hotbed of the east coast. In the late 70's and 80's the factories all closed, the Crack epidemic started and the zombies took over.Is Kensington as dodgy as everyone makes it out to be?
