I agree with Fergie. What's the use of having friendlies when all International competitions are spanned within four years within one another except for the Gold Cup (North America) or the African Cup of Nations (Africa) which happens every two years. In between that you have World Cup and the Olympics.

My only concern is if Fletcher was told to play only 45 minutes by Fergie for the Scotland-Croatia friendly match and the new Scotland manager George Burnley disregarded Fergie's instruction then that's a bad move for the Scotland manager.
