On the Metrolink last night

[toby]

After the game a gentleman got off at New Islington and collapsed does anyone know him ? Know how he is ?
Hats off to the guys who stopped to help him as well as he was on his own .

I don't know what the problem was with the met was last night but we were on it for a long time just waiting the carriages were more than packed they were busting at the seams and it was really hard to breathe . Also why are they using single carriage mets when there is such a demand for more .

Saw the incident right outside our carriage door but do not know what was the matter.

As for Metrolink - they are useless.

Hope he is ok
20 mins to wait after final whistle to wait for first Tram = JOKE
30 mins on the tram to piccadilly = JOKE

What on earth are they going to do when we extend????

Mate unless you intend having a hour or so in a local boozer while the queue clears the Metro is shit after the game. Its always quicker to walk to town.

The metrolink does need to be sorted. I feel that as the season has gone on it has got even worse. For example, at the Chelsea FA Cup trams had apparently reached full capacity so I had to take a taxi which cost twice as much as the tram. Come on City, let's sort this metrolink out.

City don't actually run the metrolink mate, its nothing to do with the club at all.

Still, it needs sorting out

The obvious thing would be to run more trams but a few games back a steward was telling me that it is impossible to do this.

I wasn't listening properly but he was going on about there being a limited amount of trams you can have on one line - the electricity flowing through the cables is not enough to power more trams at once. Apparently its not like trains that power themselves.

Well they knew the Etihad was going to have a stop so they should of made cables which could cope with more trams.
