Fans flock to Germany

Nearly four hundred FC United of Manchester fans are in Germany for the Evo-Stik Northern Premier League outfit's summer tour.

Supporters started leaving Manchester on Wednesday for two games in three days against Berlin side Babelsberg on Friday and then Dynamo Dresden on Sunday.

The Premier Division's Rebels and the German sides are making a donation from the proceeds of the fixtures to a children's hospice in Berlin following the tour.
