Laurie Mckinna posted on Facebook about 1 hour ago saying he’s still waiting for confirmation.

He’s got a tour plan ready on standby waiting to hear so he may have an inside word as soon as the information available.

Nothing mentioned yet

 

[Tevor]

time?

Would be in the evening you would think so if say 8pm that’s a terrible time for us. Afternoon would make it better as late evening. 6 hours difference.

It'll be 29 degrees at 2am for us. Same constant temperature night and day.

Yeah - thanks - corrected.

2am Local for us yes.

So no crowds and no TV audience?
Seriously 2am.

Knowing Ten play there will be no stream to watch either until the afternoon.

F... it I'm watching.

I love in the USA, getting up at 2am to watch the boys play is standard for me so this will be a nice change.

I do wonder how much of this is orchestrated by the AFC to favour a middle east team and how much of it is just for weather reasons.

I can't imagine that the influential middle eastern nations (Qatar, SA, UAE etc) give a f**k about Lebanon...

Would be much fairer if there was a 2 legs series for this

No cup final in the world is ever a 2 leg series, and this is no different. So we have to adapt quickly and play as best as we can and hope for the trophy
