Any advice please? Story is M.Director comes up and asks if im watching the game tonight.. I reply yeah if i can find a good stream!
He then comes up later and says he has tickets if i want them and goes on to give me 2 platinum cards to borrow!! In east stand level 3 row U.
Are these good seats? (any are good if im watching city!)
Never been to eastlands/etihad so not got a clue what to do when i get there.. he said just swipe the cards and find the seats! :/

They are high up but you'll have a clear view of the action... the players will just be sort of small but good enough if you don't have crap eyesight like me.

He is right, just swipe the card at one of the gate entrances listed on the card then look at the aisle number on the card and find that too. Stewards around if you get confused, you'll be walking up a swirly path after you go through the gate to get to the third tier. This is a great game to get tickets to see them for the first time in ages, Champions League nights are amazing!

Found i can get into picadilly station for just after 6 and gonna just grab a cab... Will i have enough time to get seated???
Not seen the blue in the flesh since '92 so totally buzzin!!!

You will even have time for a visit to City Square at that time (or a pint elsewhere if the weather puts you off the square) the seats and your entrance are detailed on the cards. All you do is wander up to your entrance, place the card in the slot on the turnstile and Bobs your uncle your in !

Great view from there, I'm in row S. When you get to the stadium, look at the cards and it tells you which entrances you can use, either E and C or G and J for East level 3. Go right to the top of the spiral to get on the concourse and find your block from there, you'll have bags of time.

Using bills money for transport!! Will pay em later! (coming from dewsbury).

Taxi will cost you £6 and will take all of 5 mins to get there.

If you arrive at 6, you'll have loads of time... there are cheap buses that go to the stadium from Piccadilly, someone here can give you the numbers as I don't use them but there will be probably lots of City fans around getting on them.

You should get to the stadium with lots of time to spare as someone else mentioned so you'll be able to see City Square and the club shop.

<10 mins in a taxi. 25-30 min walk
Go in the entrance it says on the ticket, it will be a spiral.
you'll be right at the back, not the best for atmosphere but excellent view.
enjoy.

Thx to all of you truly!
Getting married next august but this next best day till then!!
I hope you all have an enjoyable and trouble free night.
Fans like you/us show what its all about!

the card will have the entrance letter on it, just get to the turnstile and stick your card in the slot, it will buzz and light up, you then just push the turnstile to get in. you are in the 3rd level so will be going up one of the spirals. 3rd tier is a very good view but very high up. its a 20 minute walk to the stadium from piccadilly so if you get a cab it will be more than enough time.

so your card has all info on it

Entrance - the specific turnstile where you go to enter the stadium

Aisle/block - each block entrance inside the stadium has a number above it to get to your seat.

Row - these are on the floor at the start of every row of seats. ( a steward will direct you if you tell him which row your in)


if you get the 216 bus outside nobles amusments/21 picadilly (nobles located on the corner of oldham street/piccadilly gardens) it will take you to the stadium
