[cite]Posted By: Kap10[/cite]I thought that Clubs like Man U made money out of these tours maybe Pompey will too
United make the money through selling merchandise plus the MLS will be paying them a fair bit to go there and play. I think they rotate it year on year so they go to the US one year then Asia the next.
I can't imagine many Americans are rushing out to buy Pompey shirts, nor will they be getting anywhere near as much appearance money as United will be.

Not sure I'd very happy to read they are on tour in the US if they owed me money!
as i said before, its not fair on there fans, must be going through a hard time, but weve been there and done that so we know how there feeling
but as points mentioned below, why are they going to america if there skint? thats askings for problems
I too am very surprised that a club in so much debt, can ship its squad to the USA for 2 weeks.
They should be looking to trim any excess expense. They must still be stuck in a Premier League mindset/fairy land.
