Trips to the u.s.

Liverpool Football Club - General Discussion

Postby soccerfreek421 » Fri Aug 25, 2006 3:34 am

Are there any plans for future friendlies in the United States?  With the likes of Chelski, Barca, A.C(hoking). Milan, and Real Madrid playing friendlies against some clubs in the U.S. does Liverpool have plans to travel across the pond and showcase their talent in front of ummm maybe 25,000 (depending on the location, stadium, and the personal interest).  Just curious since that would most likely be my only opportunity to see Liverpool live.

I shouldn't have thought so, mate.

Maybe next year. I don't think these things are disclosed to the public until midway through the season at the earliest.

If i was able and things got really better with me.I would love to go to New York promised our lad for years and its a place i've always wanted to visit and my kids.The world trade buildings remains warrant a visit and i just hope i get to acheive his dream for him.If my reds are playing there too i couldnt think of a more pefect break.......we can all dream.I have forms from a willow foundation who organise your last special trip for dying cancer patients,but i think a trip to the lfc museum,balloon ride,meet a player etc is about as far as it goes........NEW YORK........definately not i would imagine.:laugh:

Pundits here say that those trips have mainly economic reasons, and they are not too good preparation-wise. In the other hand I always like to promote football in countries with less footie tradition. To be honest I'm not sure why they say it's not a good idea those long trips to far Asia or USA. Thoughts?

To be fair the east coast of america is no where near the disruption of a far east tour. The jet lag is less, the travel is less, the food doesn't kill you (well not in the short term anyway), etc
