Barca & Real would be nice if they play the full team (them not us).

When Bournemouth played Real Madrid at Dean Court a few years ago (before they'd been promoted), Madrid played a full team, including Ronaldo - but they charged Bournemouth around £1m for an appearance fee. Obviously we've long known money is no object there, so of course they stumped it up. But the tickets were £30-£60, for a friendly. And they'd still have made a massive loss on it.

I sincerely doubt Bloom would be as stupid to pay through the nose for such an appearance fee, or to rip off the fans to se them, but they absolutely lapped it up down there. Lost 6-0.

As stated previously, Pride is the weekend before season kick off, so this will have an impact on dates for a glamour home fixture.

Given that this is the 20th anniversary of Fans United, it would be good to see us have a friendly against one of the lower league sides that supported us in our hour of need. A friendly against a team like Plymouth Argyle might be quite apt.

Doncaster. Last game at the Goldstone, first (proper) game at the AMEX, first friendly after promotion to PL...?
