Just talked to the regional director over here... Realized its not worth the effort going back to Manchester again. The advantages of staying here at remote kickoff if you have been to Manchester before:
1. Save money and time traveling
2. know the local teams much better
3. remote kickoff will have competition objects anyways (at least here and few other remote kickoff like NYC's)
4. can help out at the remote kickoff
So... I guess this mark the end of me going back to Manchesters...It is a lot of money, considering 350 dollars for ticket, 100 for hotel a night, and 7 hours flight each way. Lucky for east coast people for not having to travel so far and so expensive.
