Where to see the cups

Anybody know how long they are actually there for? Hoping to take my old man to see them next weekend. He is 93, and (finally accepted) in a wheelchair, so hoping there is access?

He has seen ALL our title wins, and he deserves to get to see them if he can.

was one day only I'm afraid, I'm sure first home game of the season they will be around
 
If not said already, fan zones b4 many home games could be the place to see them.

Normally free opportunity to have a snap with the trophies.

Other clubs, (Rags) used to charge their own fans the privilege of having a picture taken with something they had won, cunts!
 
CITC brought the PL trophy to Didsbury Park last summer. Had my picture taken with my son, the trophy and Alex Williams.
Would love it if they put the event on again.
 
According to Uefa rules the champions league trophy is not allowed to stay in the stadium.

When we went on tour in August as had some family up for the Newcastle game, it was only the Prem and FA Cup, no champions league, it was first weekend of season so before Super Cup win. We were told no CL was something to do with UEFA rules and not being able to show it in one place for more than 48 hours.
The trophies were in the shop so you dont need to do tour to see them and have photo with them.

Did it about three weeks ago and they were there. Just inside the tour entrance in the south stand.

Indeed, they changed the rules in about 2007 in which the original remains with UEFA at all times and is only used for the trophy lift and is returned as soon as the ceremony is done.

It's always an official replica after that, but did read somewhere that the original stays with the club for like 2 days and is returned for the replica?.

The rules changed a few years after the dippers won their 5th and got to keep the real one permanently.

If we win a third in a row or a 5th, we won't get any original trophies to keep from UEFA for good, but still get the multiple winners badge on the shirt sleeve for CL matches.
 
Was in a pub I go to, The Hunters in Stalybridge before the Chav’s game last Sunday.
