BLUES BRING TROPHIES TO FAN AT HOSPICE

E It was the only dream I had left

CITY'S four trophies have been from Australia to India to China to Abu Dhabi and will soon visit Norway, Argentina, Brazil and the US.

The club are also making sure to keep visiting deserving supporters wherever possible - as highlighted by two visits to seriously ill fans on the opposite side of the world.

When visiting Australia, City arranged for the trophies to visit lifelong fan John Cretney, who left Manchester in 1968 for down under and has never missed a live, televised game since, despite living more than 10,000 miles away.

John has been diagnosed with a terminal illness, so City surprised him at his home in the Blue Mountains, accompanied by a video message from John Stones.

In July, they visited supporter Alan Baker, who was receiving care at Dr Kershaw's Hospice in Oldham, and the club welcomed Alan's widow and family to the Etihad for Saturday's match against Brighton.
