Late Gate?

[bluesteve1964]

I've got a nightmare on Sunday. My lads football team (that I help run) have reached the quarter final of the Lancashire Cup for the first time in the clubs history. Kick off is 1pm. The only saving grace is that we are playing away in Chadderton. They play 35 minutes each way so I reckon we can probably just get to the Etihad for the start of the second half. (I may even sub him with 15 mins to go)
Question is do City have a late gate or entrance I can use at half time. Or does anyone know who at the club I am best ringing/e-mailing to find out.
Cheers In advance.

True. They have done brilliant to get to this stage. Perfect scenario will be snow around Oldham and a postponement then re-aranged for a week later. They are doing a pitch inspection on saturday with us having to travel so far (from Blackpool).

Sunday is forecast rain and a balmy 8 degrees. Might be waterlogged but does not look like frozen ground will get it off. What time do they KO?

1pm at Cathedral Rd, Chaddie. So if anyone wants to go round with a hose pipe in the next couple of days feel free. ;-)

Good try. No extra time but straight to penalties......please no!!!!!

Back on topic, has anyone arrived late at match after turnstiles are shut and used a late gate or got in through the reception area?
