New security measure

Not if it terminates at the stadium like they do coming from Piccadilly.

But even those go up to the velodrome, stop ,change track and then turn round to go back into piccadilly.

I know,the amount of times we've been waiting for trams to ashton,one arrives "out of service " ,all for it to go past without stopping and then come back the other way several minutes later.

They'll need to meet outside the perimeter.

Won’t stop the Feyenoord fans with home end tickets. They just show. Match ticket and they are through.

Great Ancoats Street is closed from 5pm tonight, I take it this is to help with the away fans walking up to the stadium together, traffic chaos tonight for people coming that way.

Feyenoord fans are being escorted from shambles to the ground from 5pm.

Can you get someone else to pick up your ticket from the ticket office seen a lot of people selling them and saying you can pick up, I thought you’d need photo id

you can guarantee there will be loads of feyenoord fans in the home end. just like against celtic last year. they had these checks last year and it did nothing.

My thoughts exactly. Most Dutch people I’ve met speak English and they don’t have to even say a word when asked for their tickets.

It won’t be as volatile as Celtic because, from my understanding, Feyenoord seem to respect us. I know Blues who head over there for matches.

This still doesn’t rub well with me. I’d never travel that far without one.

Do City fans moan about everything ? City put the Leicester match on free and provided a free beer and fans moaned. Now they are trying to keep thousands of ticketless fans away from the stadium concourse and fans are moaning. If the club did nothing they would moan that thousands were stopping them getting a pint/entry. This isnt about away fans with tickets in the home end, this is about away fans without tickets forcing entry and blocking access. No one wants to see an Arsenal situation... well maybe some do, then they will have another reason to moan.
