Poznan .... 6 feet 6 skin heads, the lot of them, looked very threatening but were ok........... LOUD 3... Dortmund....... Loud and great support. very organised, even on the walk from central Manchester. 4...Leeds .... were very good, very loud considering they got thrashed 5-0 5..

Don’t city employ the same rule? I know Wembley does and probably most major stadia these days. i can imagine its frustrating on an away day, especially with kids but I can also understand why. Unfortunately it’s the world we live in someone said handbags are ok though?

Alan.....Man City fan here, Seeing as it's your first visit ( or I think it is ), I i'd give a few bits of advice. Iv'e done this for quite a few teams, including Glasgow Rangers, which was a bit of an experience in itself, so I'l start off with a few basic do's and dont's. 1.. Get there early as you can, usual horrendous traffic, full body searches, can lead to big queues outside 2.. Parking ... unless it's unavoidable, avoid the official car parks, .... expensive and you will have an hours wait to get out. Try the unofficial ones you will see as you get about 1/2 a mile from the ground. Under no circumstances park on the streets around there, as you will get towed away £ 300 to get it back 3...Pubs,... wouldn't advise any boozing near the ground, if you want a drink, most away fans go in the ground or the Northern Quarter....... Great Chippy alongside the Mary D's pub behind the South Stand. 4.. The Tram...... might be useful before the game, although will be packed if you leave it late...... £ 1 .50 ( I think ).... 10 mins from Piccadilly............after the game gig queues, so you might be better getting the bus from behind the South Stand....... you will see them lined up, same price. .... If it's good weather, lots of fans, home and away walk to the City centre down the hill, as sometimes with the traffic, it's just as quick. ( 20 mins or so ) 5.. Food and drink in the ground is reasonable, but very expensive 6.. South Stand tier 3 is very, very high. 7.. Stewards are generally ok as long as you don't overdo it a bit and get silly. 8 Programme is about average. id give it 7/10. maybe less# 9.. Depending on the mood of the police commander for the match, you may be locked in for 10 mins or so after......... depends how he feels I think. 10... Coach park is 40 yards or so from the South Stand. can Okoidoke..... anything else, I will have a gander on here between now and the game, ( wiil be at the Watford game tonight) so I will try and answer any other stuff, if I can Hi what are taxi's like after the match staying with a relative up there after the game .

Ska Junkie Posted January 7, 2018 Report Share Posted January 7, 2018 I know we've got the 2nd and 3rd tier in the South stand but will there be any home fans in the first tier given they're expecting a small-ish crowd by their standards? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
