Dear Manchester city ticket office SSL1 safe standing isn't

[urban genie]

The family fucking stand, so stop selling cup tickets on the back 10-15 rows to children who cannot see the game due to everyone being stood up.

Now this isn't the fault of those coming or should we discourage bringing young blues and our future, but the amount of kids you see struggling to see over people in front of ghem or having to stand on seats (technically an H&S risk) because the area isn't accomodating for young uns.

I saw one lad, must have been 4 or 5 use some blokes arm next to him twice as a climbing flame as he fell off the seat he was standing on (his dad was too busy taking selfies with his mate in front) the man had the patience of a saint tbf .

Surely common sense dictates that the bottom of the stand is better suited and also will give the kids more enjoymemt and parents less worry about them missing put on seeing their favourite players.

 

[I'm not really here]

The club can't really do anything I think, but surely its down to parental common sense? my dad wouldn't take me on the kippax until I was older (not that it mattered in the end as it was knocked down and turned into that monstrosity by the time my growth spurt hit) but i wouldn't have been able to see sod all when it was a terrace, so we sat in the platt lane when I was a child.

I used to love being a little pipsqueak scuttling about in the Kippax with all the tall people. I didn't see much of the game itself. Didn't do me any harm, i managed to see enough. If only that was nowadays I could have been able to claim some compo. Hmm iv woke up cynical.

I’d be blaming the parents and not the club. There were plenty of seats available in other parts of the ground for last night.

Isn't it NSL1 that's the family stand?
SSL1 is a designated safe standing area so it's to be expected that people will be standing, surely.

There ought to be a fold down step in front of the barrier so that kids can safely stand and see over the top of adults. I would have thought that the system in operation would have incorporated that.

Take the little c@nts to a play area or McDonalds instead!

They are no good when it kicks off either, they just run off crying.














Joking of course.
If the child is that small arent they allowed to sit on the parents knee?

It’s different for me in 115
We stand and she stands on the seat

I wouldn't attend with a child in the standing areas unless the said child was tall enough to see over other people standing.

Correct. This isn’t on the club.
