After 30 years of supporting City this is my first 'tour' abroad, disappointed that its at our lowest few weeks in history but to late now.

Im going on Dover to Calais ferry Sunday and staying 7 nights in Nijkerk, which is west of Arnhem. About an hour journey to the furthest of the 3 games.

Safe trip to the SBA

I booked hotel last Friday. Had an email today saying the hotel couldn't take my payment with a debit card, and it must be a credit card. Came home from work, borrowed a family members card, and phoned to confirm and pay for my reservation.

Logged onto Facebook to find a message saying the Eagles game is not going ahead and Willem is yet to be confirmed.

Annoyed and quite pissed off that not only did I not see the message until it was too late, but also that the club have taken the piss!

Waiting to hear more on this so hopefully I can soon come back with better news, but until then, I think it's safe to say I'm going to Holland for a holiday and no longer a 'tour' with my football club.

To add to it, I decided to stay close to where the games were supposed to be played. With this fiasco I could have stayed somewhere else closer to Amsterdam (somewhere a bit more accessible!)

The Dutch are some of the nicest people I have ever met and if your lucky some may well sleep with you, I only know about females ,but males may do as well if you bat for the other side.

Anyway I thought its been moved to a Belgian tour.

Bloody chaos again

If I was any good at complaining, I'd be asking them to pay my fees! I am only going because they were heading that way too. But I'm shire when it comes to complaining, and know I won't get a penny out of SISU so I'm just going to go and enjoy it as a holiday

Oh, and we have family friends who live in Holland and are very friendly. Never heard too many bad things about people over there either, so if the family we know and the people Rev knows are friendly, I don't imagine I will encounter any problems
