Liverpool fans throwing missiles from South Stand Level 3

Have a big fucking net rolled up on the top of that roof, the first missile that comes down, down comes the netting to stop anymore, fan safety should come first.
Laughable that the Scousers want everyone's sympathy but are ok to throw objects onto kids, always the victims.
 
I hope that City will do something for the victim and her family. Inviting them to watch a game in a top hospitality suite and meet some of the players would be appropriate.
I am confident that this will happen even if it kept on the "down low" - our club is very good at things like this.

Catching up with this thread and laughing at the coach driver excuse. Forget the discussion about whether or not you have a collection before the end of the journey. How does something that accidentally falls of a third tier ledge end up in the first tier unless it is thrown with some velocity. It has to be a parody account by an Everton fan.

It’s because there is no atmosphere at The Etihad it’s a bit like the moon no gravity ;-)

Agree I would even have a safety net along both sides of the dippers in April.

Any authority that says City cant should be held fully accountable should anything happen.

Put it I the risk assessment only a fool would over ride the safety officers risk assessment

Is there also a point that the marshalls/security feel scared of the dippers ?

A few marshals asking a few 100 dippers to stop throw things its not going to work.

How you control a big crowd that does want to behave I have no idea

If you have been up there regularly you would not have an ounce of confidence in the stewarding. It ranges from non existent to piss poor. They can’t even keep the exits free of people. They are idiots.

They have netting in the away section at Goodison and they do put netting up at the swamp on European games across the away end. It should be across the 3rd tier on cup games from now on.

Nail on the head. Send out silly emails before the game to supporters but then but revenue over safety and fan enjoyment (or should I say ‘match day experience’?). So typical of our club nowadays. Money is at the forefront of all decisions made. The normal fans are a nuisance who just get in the way of it all.

Come up with a better solution then. Where do you put 6k opposition supporters that doesn’t entail closing a huge slice of match day revenue and ‘experience’. Like I said earlier we don’t have this problem with other fans so why should we close down hospitality?
 
They throw flares a lot it seems, wonder what Wolves ever did to them?

Liverpool Football Club is investigating after a fan was left with head injuries when a lit flare was thrown at her face during the final game of the Premier League season.

The woman, who has asked not to be named, had travelled to Anfield from the South West to watch the Reds take on Wolves in the tense season finale on Sunday May 22. Liverpool won the game but lost out to Manchester City in the race for the league title.

Towards the end of the match, as Mo Salah finally put the Reds ahead, a red flare landed in the Wolves section.

Unfortunately/understandably it was chucked back and an innocent liverpool fan from Cornwall was burned.

They may do but I would not hold their breath

My lad was also hit by a bottle, as I have said, no injury but the club have responded simply by saying an investigation is being conducted

Usually I would simply say, you know what it happened, you are ok, move on but the email before the game in part caused this so I want the club to do something.

They should take some responsibility.

The solution is easy. Restrict their ticket allocation to 2K for safety reasons. Problem solved. They will do the same but so what?

Nail on the head. Can’t stand the people who now run our theme park of a ground. Maybe i’m ungrateful because the football we play and the players and manager we have our fantastic but i feel less connected to the club i’ll always love by the year. Won’t stop me going because my love for City is greater than most things but i understand why so many of our hardcore fans have stopped going.

Bullshit joint emails and leaving fans exposed to missiles from those scummy fans. Fucking disgraceful way to run what should be and once was a football club from Manchester.

That was seven months ago do we know what action LFC have taken ? Or is it still being investigated ?

Who knows that flare thrower could have been at City throwing things.

PS the fan was probably moved to another seat.

Netting could cause psychological trauma to these fans by reminding them of the horrors of being caged in at Hillsborough. If deemed that netting was essential then MCFC must provide counsellors rather than stewards in that area.

The time for City to make a stand was straight after the coach attack. The game shouldn't have been played for a start.

By City basically doing nothing it made it easier for the press/media to ignore it. The piss poor 17k fine was a joke.

This lack of action by City, authorities, plus Merseyside police not nicking anyone, fed the dippers belief that they are untouchable.
Dippers behaviour is getting worse, got of scot free again at the CL final despite lots of videos of fake tickets and them jibbing in.

By going hand in hand with LFC imo is the wrong way, it makes it look like nothing sets of fans are the same. We arent.

City just look how it's being reported by the dippers loving press/media, it's being twisted against City. Wake up and smell the coffee. City fan gets arrested and ejected, not one dipper arrested or ejected. The most serious incident is being played down in favour of the one City fan shouting abuse at a LFC disable fan ( which is wrong and should have action taken ).

But even in our own statium the dippers were treated differently, got away with things, our own fans lives were in danger yet the club gets into bed with LFC. Lfc are the problem.
Our club our safety officers our risk assessment etc all thought it was safe to put the dippers above our fans. Serious questions need to be ask about these people thinking.
It must have been high risk of injury from thrown objects on the risk assessment so who signed it off ?

City should be sending out their own press/media statement calling out dippers behaviour.

I am not a thug ( to old now ! ) but I feel City actions are pushing some City fans beyond their normal sensible behaviour, by City poor actions in dealing with the dippers. Plus the clubs actions in putting fans lives in danger, because lives were in danger. How giving the dippers ss3 got signed of by the club is beyond me and shows a complete lack of respect to its fans

Manchester City Council have to sign off the plans for these games - where is their accountability for all this?

Good grief - are you seriously blaming the council now ???

It’s the Liverpool fans that are solely to blame. Ban them. The only solution is to stop away fans attending this fixture.

Every other team has occupied the 3rd tier without problems.

It’s not the councils fault, City’s fault, the Polices fault, it’s LFC fans.

Ban them and the matter is sorted.

At least put a net up and have the front two rows empty and a large number of Stewards and Police facing the fuckers. And go in hard on morons chucking stuff.
It really isn't that difficult.
