2026 Sydney Super Cup

LFC, Man U, Real Madrid, Juventus, AC Milan, Bayern, Barcelona. I'm talking about clubs with history - not clubs with with Johnny come lately multi-billionaire owners that only seemed to think the game started with the EPL.
And none of the above have muti-billionaire owners? Spurs are in the top five of big clubs in English football history, along with Arsenal, LFC, MUFC and Aston Villa. These were always the big 5 when i was growing up, Everton where just outside of the 5.
 
hehe I like the stab re Spurs/Chelsea but lets face it they are bigger today than yesteryer patj correct EPL onwards.
So where are all the new dawners as I mentioned - huge % there.
True nothing like the foundation days of LFC/United way way back.

I admit guilt I went to one All Stars see below :
David Beckham vs. Sydney FC (2007): David Beckham played for LA Galaxy in a friendly against Sydney FC at Stadium Australia on November 27, 2007, drawing a crowd of 80,295 people.
Another I'm not embarrassed to say took my sons to LFC Legends v Australian Legends in 2016 at Homebush - 40K.
Last mickey mouse game but I'd go again depending who and for a boys night out more than anything.

Nah, you should be VERY embarrassed admitting to that in a public forum TBH..

Having said that, the SFC vs Galaxy match in ‘07 was genuinely-good value even just watching it on TV. Missed opportunity to establish stronger ⚽️ing links(in the right ways, of course) w/the MLS thereafter.

Reactions: LFC

Nah not embarrassed at all and no one knows me here - besides I watched some aussie legends I greatly admired far more than what we've had barring the few accept-ions last 20yrs.
Some of these were the architects later days still trying better (yes even better ones missing)

whereas I see this as the ultimate golden balls plastic show, go figure.
As you said, if only for the right ways but never to be.
 
Middlesbrough toured Australia and NZ in 1975 and played about 6 matches.....

They drew 1-1 with Western Australia, drew 1-1 with South Australia, beat Queensland 2-0 and then beat NSW 8-0...

The only crowd figure recorded was 6000 in Adelaide.

Don't know the score for the 2 NZ games....they weren't recorded in the history book.
 
No Nat Björn or Manaka Matsukubo for some reason, as the comments are pointing out. The latter just signed.
