Was hoping for another trip like Leipzig but will be good for those able to get there.

I like euro trips same as the next guy but I think competitions like this where there's at least some level of competition is better than just friendlies 

Loved the Emirates cup a few years ago, Arsenal vs Athletico and all you can hear is us singing Follow Follow :crywank:

Meh, still friendlies at the end of the day, doubt too many will be fussed if win this.

I mean for the team there's at least a level of competition plus 2 games in a row instead of one meaningless friendly, yes it is meaningless too but there's respect to be earned

Trips to Canada trips to Florida. I'd prefer if we actually concentrated on doing something on the park here before going globetrotting.

Can't even win 3 games in a row never mind glamour trips.

This is true but it will be about promoting our brand in these places as the tarriers are ahead at the moment in that aspect

I take your point, but it could be an opportunity to play Barjonas, McCrorie, Beerman, and Hardie alongside the first team to find out a bit more about them, and get them adjusted to first team football more. You'd like to think the whole squad would have a go here.

I honestly don't think they are. Outside of the sevco brigade the old firm is the old firm. We come as a package on foreign shores.

Ourselves and the tarriers don't have a huge fan base outside ex pats. The fact they use their Irish roots to promote themselves you'll get people that jump on that bandwagon making it look like they have a larger support.

The fact we've had Bocanegra Beasley and  Reyna all USA legends playing for us and there has still not been any brand promotion through that shows we never will have any.

There will be some money in it for us though and we're not really in a financial position to turn it down

Yes mate going to Canada too there's a wee group of us that go everywhere no matter if it's the North Pole lol that price looks alright but we need to see when the last game is before we can book - if its 2 games in 3 days or something a lot of the lads won't stay a week due to work etc 

edit seen it's 10-20th
