City to play pre-season game in Japan

[cyberblue]

If it doesn’t I’ll be round yours for a loan!

Went to China in 1996, 2002 and again in 2012, and have a guess what? City just happened to be playing in the Bird’s Nest Stadium while we were there!
It’s a great place but amazing how much it had changed between 96 and 02, but then it was an even larger difference in the ten years between 02 and 12.

My mates Aide.Paul.and Steve were on that trip .Did you end up going to Hong Kong with them when one of the games got called of cant remember whever Egil the Norwegian fan went on that as well ?

If I sell my house in time I’ll be over there.

I may do the same but the missus will kill me when she finds out ... Had Japan on my radar for years but never got there....

The Hong Kong and Beijing games that were called off were quite some time later.
We did go to Hong Kong, but also Xian, Chengdu, Chonqing and Yichang. Passed through Shanghai but as my wife organised that bit she never thought about staying there a couple of days!

What a cracking idea mate, it will give me 5 years breathing space to think of an excuse to avoid death :-)

What i can remember City were playing 3 games in China .lads i mentioned were only doing 2 and then goung to Hong Kong The second game got called off so they went Hong Kong earlier .When City returned to Uk they played Scarbourgh in a friendly to make up I went to that as it was nearer than China lol.It might have been a year or so later Nigel Clough was playing for us then .I cant remember what i had for breakfast but can remeber Scarbourgh .Think its time for my medication

I lived in Tokyo for a while, if anyone has any questions let me know!

Anyone going? I'm also looking to watch Keirin having been raised on that at Manc Velodrome. Just booked accomodation and flights from Hong Kong (after the Kitchee game; and China games...).
