Charity Shield to Tangiers? 21:07 - Aug 12 with 879 viewsBrianMcCarthy

Just watching Barca v Sevilla in the Spanish Super Cup. It's in Tangiers. Weird.

Weirder still is that the commentator just said that the French Super Cup was played in Tangiers last year and that the English one would be next year.

Is this true? And, if so, what's the rationale/angle? It rings alarm bells when three FA's are all in tow with UEFA/FIFA.

Tester for a possible World Cup in North Africa?

Game 39 will start to rear its ugly head again shortly.

What’s worse is that Sevilla had already sold tickets for the super cup which has always been played over 2 legs before the spanish FA randomly decided on a one-off match in Tangiers. I believe Barcelona has been crying about scheduling so the Spanish FA decided on a one-off match to appease them which didn’t go down well with Sevilla as they weren’t consulted, then to rub salt into the wounds they announced the neutral venue as Tangiers!! At that point I’d have pulled out if I was in Sevilla’s position. Then yesterday the spanish FA announced that the usual non-eu player cap that they have in La Liga don’t apply to the supercup as it’s “not a professional game”, unbelievable.

I doubt the Community Shield will be there as Wembley needs to be paid for, unless the money from Tangiers is too much to refuse...

Poll: Who’s better?
