City v United Beijing friendly pre match - CANCELLED

[Mancity1980]

We lost the preseason charity shield to them and Rooney called it a "proper footballing lesson." It was actually a precursor to the 6-1 thrashing at Old Trafford and our 2012 championship.

I think the moment he said that was the moment I hated him the most in a long history of hating him. The look on the rag players (and fergie's) faces during the 6-1 and the aguerooooo moment was redemption.

By all means hate the rags but let's not have silly comments about their family please as there is absolutely no need.

I hope he is right. Stupid game anyway.

correct.

I hope he is right. Stupid game anyway.

Totally agree and hope the game doesn't go ahead

Totally agree and hope the game doesn't go ahead

Disagree stuffing them in front of their followers over there will turn the tide of global love in for the rags.

A good display gets more international fans which has great commercial advantages and bragging rights.

A friend of mine works over in China and has told me the game is virtually certain to be called off, it seems the weather has been shocking and the whole area is flooded and has had land slides.

Hoping he is wrong :(

A bit extreme to say its virtually certain- I'dsay its pretty unlikely at the moment. Theres flooding an landslides in Hebei province which is close to Beijing but the city itself has fairly good drainage etc. There was another short storm tonight/last night but that only lasted about an hour. There is a big storm forecast for monday but it was also forecast that it would be raining all weekend, which it hasnt been. Guess it will come down to how bad the rain is on monday, if any comes

So we are only going to play 3 friendlies if this is off?
Other teams play 7 or 8.

Why we are pissing out in China I shall never know. The lads should be back home playing against Mansfield, Scunthorpe and Rotherham. And the weather here is much better.
Mills was right all along.
