One side that can be ruled out..

excuse my french, but spurs would be f***ing shite

This. Very underwhelming. Want a BIG club, not one that thinks it's big.

Yeah, most of us still have our half and half scarves from last time we played.

At least our Spurs contingent will be able to watch a game that is not a Carling Cup match begging people to watch Spurs.

what happened to Man City? i though they had been lined up for the opening fixture?

if not then, sadly, the mood music seems to point towards spurs or chelsea. an exotic euro team would have been better, well it would have been fun anyway.

They offered as they would not give their share of the gate receipts to us. However, they are probably beyond us now and it would be a shitty reserve side or perhaps have even rescinded the offer. I'm not sure I would want them. Horrible club.

Hey, if it is Spurs maybe Edna can get Harry Redknapp's autograph ...

A mate at work, who is a Chelsea season ticket holder, sent me an email today saying that Chelsea would be our first friendly at the Amex. Not sure of his source, but he seemed pretty convinced and it would be a pretty dull rumour to make up.

I've also heard that it's Spurs.

 

[Easy 10]

There was rumour a few months ago that Bloom offered RM £1M to play in the friendly but they said no.

I'm sure that rumour would have been bollocks anyway, but I for one would be mightily pissed off if the club spunked a million quid on a pissing FRIENDLY.

I also heard from a good source that its Spurs and definately not Man City as they are playing in the Dublin tournament on July 30th.

Stars including Inter's Sneijder and Eto'o and Manchester City's Balotelli and Silva sign guarantees to play in Dublin pre-season tournament - Goal.com

I still have fond memories of 48,000 up there in the old Div 2.

for the glamour friendly at the amex.

BBC Sport - Leicester City line up Real Madrid friendly

Oh well, Barcelona will have to do.

The clud did approach Barcelona but at £500,000 with no guarantee of any 1st team players they politley declined.

Liverpool or Spurs?

Both would fill the ground but in the circumstances I suspect so could pretty well any other club in the league

This will be a ramp up event, so the object isn't to fill the ground. The Club have apparently told Falmer Parish Council that it will be a match for 17,000 fans on 30 July.

Man U once they have won the European Cup. I wonder, Sir Alex has been quite supportive of us over the years.

I'm on f***ing holiday so I hope we play Histon.

Didn't Tony say on the Q&A that more details about it would be released within a week? If so hopefully we won't have to speculate for much longer.

I heard it from the horses mouth that there will be a Premiership club playing in a testimonial at Falmer, probably around September.

Which Horse?

The 30th july has been earmarked as a champions league third round qualifier so whoever finishes 3rd and 4th in the premiership won't be sending their first team to play us. It will have to be either Barcelona or one of the top 2 from the prem
