Why have a weird little rant on the internet when you could tour the country visiting us all individually and squeal at us?

You lot just like to fucking moan about something
‘The Germans do it better’
‘Had to wait a gazillion minutes’
‘Why don’t they redirect the entire Manchester transport system to the Etihad on match days?’
Short of a train station being paid for by the Sheikh I’m afraid you’re all shit out of luck..because this is as good as it gets..and between the tram, the buses and taxis..along with your legs as Town is no more than a mile away..whilst not perfect..is nowhere near as catastrophic as you transport doom mongers prophesise it is

Here’s an idea..fucking walk to town you lazy bastards
I do it every game..walk from town..walk back
As for the trams being crowded..it’s a fucking football match..what are you expecting? A buffet car serving vol-au-vents?
Metrolink only has so many units and believe it or not there are other lines on the Biggest tram network in the uk..they put as many doubles as they can on that line on match day..I know..because I have to drive the bastards
There’s not much else you can do with that amount of people all leaving at the same time..as for the suggestion United get more trams..bollocks..it’s the same line..Altrincham Etihads..the Etihad is also serviced by the Ashton Eccles trams..Old Trafford by Bury Altrinchams
People are always going to be squashed in post match..like I said..if you don’t like it..walk
Another note..on the rare occasion I’ve got a tram home from the match I’ve walked to New Islington stop and caught one from there..easily squeezing on with no queue
Like I said..Lazy
Not me, but some people cannot walk too far. So don't tar everyone with the same brush. btw lucky you.

So you come on here moaning about people moaning. Fucking haha.

Even if I didn’t drive trams..I’d still laugh at this fucking preposterous thread..grown men crying about public transport when you could throw a stone to town from the Etihad

You’re correct..with the emphasis on ‘some people’
Wtf!I’m sure the thousands of fans who take the tram to and from the game all have no legs and disabled badges
Mate, i suggest you seriously think about what you post. How do you know people discussing this matter aren't less able than others with regards to mobility. I see dozens of folk after the game with walking aids. Great choice for them, walk or stand in the freezing cold for ages.

As a guesstimate and being very very generous..maybe 5% of tram users on match days walk with aids or use a wheelchair..I highly doubt you see ‘dozens’
Like I said..no one forces anyone to use the buses/trams..if you think it’s shit..get a taxi
I’m not a ‘company man’ by any means..I just work on the inside and know the logistics involved..Metrolink throw a lot of resources at it..and I’m sure Stagecoach do the same with the buses
