I remember it as the Rags were trying to pressure the FA into giving them a bye, they thought by threatening to pull out they’d roll over but they called their bluff.
Entitled cunts.
I've mentioned before on here that I wrote to David Davies, united-fan and executive director of the FA at the time saying I was writing an article for a football magazine, which I was, and asking specifically who had approached who first.
His first response was that it was "mutially agreed" that if they won the CL they would be going into the World Club cup. As this didn't answer my question, I wrote to him again and asked him to answer the question. His second reply was equally evasive so I wrote back to him saying that his refusal to answer the question told me that it wasn't the FA's decision. I got no answer to that letter.
