Thomas Cook by all accounts. Why are we still tied up with a dying company on it's last legs, who can't seem to organise a piss-up in a brewery or, in this case, a flight to China

Not a great start now is it.
I absolutely hate these preseason tours. I know why they are done but from a football perspective they are a pile of shite. It would be much better done at or closer to home than flying around the world.
Do we really need to do this every year now...

In fact this preseason touring bollocks is worse than international football bollocks.

SSN - Premier League just announced in brief statement that City will participate in the Asia Tournament - confident they will arrive today and a landing slot will be available.Nothing on their twitter yet though.

Have to generate your own income, fair play and all that

Heaven forbid an owner should invest in his business

Indeed it is. From a football perspective these tournaments are awful.The commercial aspect is another matter.

‘full’ strength

Shows when we don't have Jesus or Aguero we really lack an out and out goalscorer

Angelino is having another go I see. 3rd time lucky?

Anyone got any river for this?

The only thing out there
