Hehe, might as well have a trip to New Zealand, if that's the case. Mind you, the year the Dons went to Portugal for their pre-season, they were apparently offered a trip to New Zealand for their pre-season. Would be awesome if they came here. They'd be in good hands too, as Bobby Clark is over here and helps out heaps with kids "soccer", as it's still called over here ... primarily because "footy" in New Zealand is what everyone else calls Rugby League.

 

I somehow got myself involved in the discussions for selecting teams for the 2007 Peace Cup, an international club tournament organised by the Moonies here in Korea. They were having trouble attracting big name sides over (they wanted a Real Madrid or Inter Milan to go up against Manchester United's Asian Tour, but the big name Euro sides were demanding ridiculous appearance fees), and yours truly pushed for them giving Aberdeen an invite. Unfortunately the idea was dismissed pretty much out of hand as they indicated that Celtic were the only Scottish side they'd consider, and they didn't want Scottish teams anyway... their loss.
