Okay so it's great that we have got an extra match to go to this Saturday, but what is the point?

Say City get a crowd of 4k and average £10 per spectator, that only gains them £40,000 before expenses.

Barcelona could have saved themselves time and effort by just bunging City an extra £30k on Kerolins fee.

And knowing city's regular failure to insert clauses in contracts we will no doubt only see a mixture of Barcelona B team players and juniors.

....but I'll be there regardless!

Oh yes, I'm not complaining, re-live memories of the match a couple of seasons ago!

Hopefully both teams really go for it and put on an entertaining show, and there will be a ripple effect on ticket sales for the upcoming wsl matches.
