So even though it's only 90 mins away on a really fast autobahn route ( very few tempo limits up to Stuttgart), I've already booked into the Allgau for that weekend. Typical, last year we got ripped off for a crappy game at Wembley and when City are just up the road i can't make it. Hope it's on one of the sport channels.

Anyone know if the Melbourne game is being televised and if so will it be shown over here in Blighty?

Add to that, how to score and defend from corners and set pieces, oh and stop giving away stupid free kicks in dangerous places which cost us a lot of goals against and points dropped, which ultimately cost us the title

Keep an eye on BT - they showed the Australian league games last season so they might be a good bet IF it's going to be shown at all.

used to love the pre-season games, I always used to get to at least two. I know they coincide with the darker times but I loved the pre-season games. Probably my favourite was at Doncaster, the one where Barton was starting a fight with Sodje (I think). Great banter. The Donny players were warming up before the game and taking shots, but they were at the City end. Every shot that was wide was caught by a City fan and the ball subsequently threw over the back wall onto the supermarket car park. They started with a full bag of balls and when it got down to the final 3, there were massive cheers as each one was slow thrown over the wall, especially the last one as their strikers were pleading with us not to do it. Unlucky!!

Also the steward at that game was given serious banter for looking like whacko Jacko, he didnt come back for the second half LOL

I miss it :-(

Pre season away at the old Bloomfield Road was much fun.
