Weirdest Football Fixture Ever?

Postby Niall Quinns Discopants » Fri Jan 15, 2010 12:28 pm

Sometimes we're good and sometimes we're bad but when we're good, at least we're much better than we used to be and when we are bad we're just as bad as we always used to be, so that's got to be good hasn't it?

Brazil use the Emirates as their "home ground" on occasions due to the majority of their players that play in Europe. Its a compromise situation.

Still bleeding weird if you ask me.

Money. Kentaro seem to own Brazil & are one of the companies we've lined up deals with for our assault on the world/Platini etc in the future. That ridiculous Brazil v England reserves in the middle east fixture was our FA repaying a debt to them.

Brazil are the home team. Most teams reach friendly 'agreements' to play home and away once each over a 2-5 year period. As it's a friendly match, a lot of managers wouldn't be happy for their players to go to South America for this. There's also a massive Brazillian community in London (180-200k, I seem to recall from a stat thrown up during the Menezes case).

What are Brazil's attendances for friendlies played in Brazil?
