As a South African fan Ive all but given up hope of spurs ever returning to my country for pre season. Seems the club's focus is on the Asian markets and rightly so...

Football, unfortunately for many working class fans, is big business, and it follows the money. South Africa is a wonderful country, but its economy is in a fair bit of trouble.

that's a understatement it's in a steaming pile of horseshit . But the pre season games are now about expansion and growth of the club's name. Which Im all far. Exchange rate also isnt making my trip to London happen any sooner maybe just maybe I'll be able to watch Kane retire in 10 years

We wouldn't be going to Korea if it were not for Son, just as we wouldn't have been at the Peace Cup if not for Lee.

We had players from South Africa but don't now. Personally, I'd be so proud of our Club for going to Kenya, given Big Vic, and doing some real CSR stuff there, as well as in China where the real agenda is brand building in a commercial market.

Unfortunately for you fans over there, the Asian market is huge! I bet Man U pay Rooney and Pogba's wages using a fraction of what they make in Korea alone.
