A lot of leg injuries.
Yes routine procedure for something like thisDo bomb disposal unit arrive as a pro-caution or does it definitely mean it's not over?

If, and we don't know for sure yet, this is terrorist related, then they have picked a far easier target, full of kids.Whats next? Inside me thinking it will be a Prem league game. :(
Lets not speculate on "next", its irrelevant.
They will never get through entrance W, the lads and lasses on there do a great job, very thoroughI feel physically sick.
Fed up.

My thoughts and prayers go to all those caught up in this in my home City tonight.
If it is a bomb, and it seems conclusive at this point, then I despair, I really do. Bombing indiscriminate members of the public is bad enough but bombing a teenagers concert is beyond depravity.

What is gained by killing kids?
They are sick bastards.
My heart goes out to everyone affected.
That is often the motivation for the attacker who will say the same about "their" children. If ever something justified the phrase two wrongs don't make a right this is it. Sadly the perpetrators won't see it that way.

From Tim Farron

Tim Farron pays tribute
Tim Farron, Leader of the Liberal Democrats, has said:
This is a shocking and horrific attack targeting children and young people who were simply enjoying a concert.
My deepest sympathies are with the victims, and with families who have lost loved ones, as well as those desperately waiting for news.
I would like to pay tribute to the bravery and dedication of the emergency services.
This is an attack on innocent people and the nation is united both in its grief and its determination to stand up to this deplorable attack.

I don't think the girl covered with blood etc was consistent with people falling to the ground in a stampede, I'm fairly sure British Gas aren't to blame either.That headline is hysterical click bait. Also, so far, pictures have mostly shown people with bandaged knees. This is consistent with people falling to the floor in the event of a stampede.

Oldham Hospital have tweeted they are on lockdown as a safety procedure due to the explosion. No reports of a gunman.

It's so fucking easy to get in even with added searches.
We need to scrap these paper tickets and cards.

Want to sell your ticket? Transfer it over to someone else who also has to register their fingerprint.
If my local gym can have a cardless system and use fingerprints instead, so can big football clubs

My heart goes out to the parents who are missing a child. Haven't got kids but I couldn't think of anything worst than being involve in something like this.

Pretty sure the reason we've been queueing to be searched for the last 3 months is because the police have got wind that something like this is in the offing.

Sounds like it was outside of the arena.

Or outside, city square or at the queues. Nobody stops or searches anybody before the turnstiles. Doesn't bear thinking about
