That would be brilliant! Clubs have very close links: http://www.charlotteunited.com/content.cfm?section=045761A0-BBC3-49B9-AC43-F64751E6892F&content_id=045761A0-BBC3-49B9-AC43-F64751E6892F

A nice little 850-mile, 15-hour road trip for me, but would definitely be up for it.

I'm probably in the minority - but what is wrong with having a pre-season at home? I'd love to see us play some home games against some bigger teams for a start - last season we didn't have one pre-season game at home and those games we did play on English soil were to non-league or lower league teams.

It's just football the way teams tour through the summer, but we usually do have a Home game as the last pre-season friendly with the exception of last season. We had Wolves and Chelsea before that, I for one like the touring it gives teams a chance to play other teams that they might not usually get to play.

Supposed to be going to Prague next year, so wouldn't complain if they went to Czech or better yet Holland.
