Greetings fellow Yids.
This probably doesn't apply to a lot of people, but with the news that Spurs will be taking part in this years Barclays Asia Trophy against Man Citeh, Sunderland and a local team in Hong Kong, I thought it couldn't hurt giving some information for anyone thinking of heading eastwards during the summer.
The tournament itself isn't till July but of course with the news officially released yesterday us HK Spurs are all buzzing.
There is a vibrant and active groups of spurs supporters over here, and we're obviously looking forward to welcoming Yids from all round the world who make the journey.
The tournament was held here last time round in 2011 featuring Chelsea, Villa, Blackburn and a local team.
Based on that edition, I can give the following info.
First off, a rough prediction of the fixtures (All times are in HK local time, BST +7).
Wednesday 24 July
6pm KO: Spurs vs Sunderland
8:30pm KO: Man City vs South China AA
Saturday 27 July
6pm KO: South China AA vs Sunderland
8:30pm KO: Spurs vs Man City
(Obviously Saturday's games are based on the assumption both we and Shitty win our games on Wednesday).
Some ticket info from the 2011 Barclays Asia Trophy:
Ticket prices for each match day in Hong Kong dollars (with all British prices an approximation) were: $130 (£10), $210 (£16.50), $270 (£21), $330 (£26), $460 (£36).
Ticket sales started from 1 June 2011 at Hong Kong Football Association and online at http://www.cityline.com.
More than two thirds of the 80,000 tickets available were purchased by Hong Kong football fans after just five days.
I'm guessing the 2013 version would be something similar to that.
If you have any questions about the Tournament, Spurs in Hong Kong or Hong Kong lemme know and I'll do my best.
