The UK manufacturing industry contributed £6.7Tr, the Aerospace industry is in second place globally, the car industry is growing, the Nissan Sunderland plant is the most efficient in Europe and alone produces more vehicles than the whole of Italy's car industry. In the UK 1.5 million vehicles and 2.5 million engines are manufactured each year, and is on course to break all time records by 2017. The chemical and pharmaceutical industries add £20M per day to the UK balance of trade. In world terms we are the 11th largest manufacturing nation contributing 54% of UK exports and 11% of GVA the 10 countries above us all have larger populations and home markets.

And our external debt is the 2nd biggest in the world... Or as of last year $9,590,995,000,000, which is about 400% of our GNP
 
Fantastic occasion for the city of Manchester and for Manchester City.

Recognising this, the beeb presents its byline that it was all a fuck-up, that the Chinese are pissed-off that Xi Jinping wasn't taken to see the wonderful Manchester United as he and everyone else loves them and that the whole thing was inexplicably embarrassing.

It begs the question as to how far we will allow these cockroaches to continue this blatant campaign of undermining negativity before action is taken.

It's very positive for the club. I can't see a downside.

I agree, when the President of a powerful country like China, the worlds second largest economy and the most populous nation on earth comes to visit, and has a selfie taken with Sergio Aguero, and that pic is then beamed round the world (I've just done a quick search, that pic is everywhere, in media outlets on every continent) it's difficult to see a downside.

Despite Cameron photobombing it.

This is a massive coup for City.
It's what global success is made of.
Have had yernited fans texting me to mock us all day. Truth is the bastards are shitting themselves.
Brilliant propaganda!
Well done City. Number 1 premiership club in China any minute now....
 
The rag loving BBC have managed to put a negative slant on it which believe it or not, when I just googled BBC on my iPhone and clicked on the first link (BBC.com) the headline, yes that's right the headline is

"Chinese fans divided over Man City Visit"

With a sub heading of "Chinese less than United over Man City visit"

Snippets as follows.

"China social media users are abuzz over why he visited Manchester City and not the more internationally famous Manchester United"

"Many were angry over what was described as an inexplicably embarrassing decision"

"one post said his dream of a visit to Man Utd was broken"

These three posts were then followed by a bit of defending why from social media users however that didn't last long.....

"David Beckham and Other football stars from Manchester United have many fans in China"

Now the reporter is dressing this up
as social media and so nothing to do with the BBC but fuck me is this 1. Headline news 2. A fair reflection of what the billions of Chinese people think.

After that twat Christ Bevans blatant in game text commentary comment about empty seats (with obligatory picture) on Wednesday despite this being one of our best CL attendances given the poor Sevilla turnout and now this pile of shite, you have to wonder who is pulling the strings at this organisation.

I agree.

Put simply he didn't go to Old Trafford or their Carrington training ground because there's nothing to see.

Besides, this trip was about encouraging inward investment, so it had to be City. United is all about bleeding a cash cow and the rags certainly couldn't have shown off one of their female football stars as they haven't got any.

Utd is the absolute opposite of what this trip was all about.
