TimbersFC -This week: one big-name exhibition announcement down, one more to go. The next one will be available exclusively to season ticket holders.I have said this before, and I will say it again, Manchester City is the team we are playing, I think. I am staking all my credibility on this one. Ok, I have no credibility, so it doesn't matter.
This is my reasoning for the Man City match. Man City is an Umbro squad. Umbro is owned by Nike. Former Nike executive Garry Cook is the CEO of Manchester City. Man City wants to build their brand in America. They announced an east coast tour, but they will also be visiting the Nike HQ for several days. If I am wrong about Man City, I will deny any wrong doing faster than an oil company exec.Guess the exhibition Club Contest

Definitely Manchester City. They've been quiet about their USA plans apart from their east coast dates.
ReplyDeleteI am going with Tottenham.
ReplyDeleteIf you are looking for some good humor, check out the Sounders fans bitching about getting the Celtic and Boca on their forums. Yeah, every dominant team in the world should be clamoring to play a basement dwelling MLS club.
ReplyDeleteCeltic would be another good bet because of their trip to Seattle (similar to Boca Juniors). But I'm sticking with City.
ReplyDeleteI'll say Manchester City, hoping for Man City at least. Any EPL club would be pretty awesome though.
