Unusual friendly 20:30 - Jul 31 with 2081 viewsemergencylime

I see (according to FlashScore) that Ndaba’s new club Lecce had a pre-season friendly against UAE today.

Is this a thing i’ve missed, where a club plays a national team?

If so, what country should ITFC play next summer?

“Ipswich Town played an England XI in a testimonial match for Sir Bobby Robson at Portman Road in 1979. The game ended in a 2-2 draw, with Paul Mariner and Alan Brazil scoring for Ipswich. George Best played for Ipswich in this match. This event was part of a series of tributes to Robson, who managed both Ipswich and England.”

UAE have by far the best team in Norfolk, even if they are a bunch of layabout student farm managers.

Good work by Philogene...... GREAT WORK BY PHILOGENE!!!

It's reasonably common with 'lesser' national teams.

Bizarrely it was Bobby Fergusons side midway through the 85-86 season

It appears we played 4 games.... 2 each against Bahrain & Iraq

13th/14th Feb 1986 v Bahrain, winning 2-1 and 1-0
2/4th March 1986 v Iraq, winning 1-0 and drawing 0-0

I can't remember why there was such a massive break in the fixtures to allow this? Strike? Bad weather?

I'm sure the UK had bad snow around February 1986, from memory? I remember a programme cover for the game against Forest (I think) which was a heavily snow covered Portman Road.
